I don't know what you've heard, but from what I've been able to guess by reading between-the-lines, it appears that DANIELLE wrote, starred-in, filmed, directed, produced..... her new sex-video.
TMZ carefully worded their item about it to say that a mysterious "third-party", sold the tape to HUSTLER.
We do know that DANIELLE spent some time in court with last season's boyfriend/f-buddy, because he tried to sell an un-authorised sex-video of DANNIELLE. But sources are reporting that the sex-video that has been released by HUSTLER, is NOT "that" sex-video, but a different one, or, one that DANIELLE herself is profitting from.
In other words, did DANIELLE sell her sex-video to HUSTLER?
Signs point to yes, including comments from people who have seen clips that say that it appears that DANIELLE herself is holding the camera.
