Last week a stripper accused Redskins lineman and former All-Pro Albert Haynesworth of impregnating her -- and then abandoning her. The exotic dancer, Silvia Mena, has been described as a "Salma Hayek look-alike." Now new details about her rumored $10 million lawsuit are coming to light.

Mena's lawyer tells the New York Daily News that the stripper recorded a phone call with Haynesworth, and that the tape shows the big lineman "insinuating that she should get an abortion."

The attorney also told the newspaper that "this is not about settlement." He went on, "This is about holding Mr. Haynesworth's hand to the fire. We're not asking him to marry her. We are just asking him to be responsible."

Haynesworth, who was said to be "blindsided" by the lawsuit, did not comment when the paper contacted his spokesman.
