Kari Ann Peniche, the woman who was exxxposed in the "naked tape" with expectant parents Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart denied former rehab roommate Mindy McCready's claims that's she's a madam and a prostitute.

“I’ve never been a madam. I’ve never been a prostitute,” Kari Ann told Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson. “Mindy is the craziest person I have ever met in my entire life. Like, she’s insane.”

But although Kari Ann fervently denied the claims, she didn't seem willing to go too far to clear her not-so-good name.

"To say somebody is a prostitute is libelous,” Shaun told Peniche. “Nobody’s suing Mindy for saying these things, these liable, horrible things. Why? Why is that not happening?”

“I don’t know… I have no idea,” Kari Ann began. "But what am I going to gain from it? You know?”

"Your reputation," Shaun replied. (Well played, Robinson.)

“I just think the truth is the truth,” Kari Ann replied. “Karma is like good enough and you know, I mean if it continues then you know maybe I’ll have to do something about that.”

Yeah, after that, we really believe that "karma" is currency Kari Ann trades in!
