(Newser) – A showgirl who says she was paid to party with Silvio Berlusconi says she’s got photos of herself and the Italian PM in his bedroom, the Times of London reports. Patrizia D'Addario says she also gave audio tapes to prosecutors with Berlusconi's voice, and videotaped herself in the room to prove she was there. Police are looking into whether the materials are genuine, though it's not exactly clear what they show.
