Shari Beaumont, Wayne Hentai Form Publicity Agency, Plan 9 Media Group
May 25, 2008
LOS ANGELES Ñ Two of the industry’s foremost names in promotions and public relations pooled their experience to launch a robust publicity agency for the needs of the adult entertainment industry.
Shari Beaumont, former All Media Play director of operations and head of SugarDVDÕs affiliate relations, joined with Wayne Hentai, proprietor of Hentai Public Relations, to form Plan 9 Media Group. Beaumont will head the organization’s promotions and media sponsorship efforts. Hentai will take charge of the public relations needs of the company’s clients.
“Wayne and I have worked together on projects in the past,” Beaumont, who worked in music industry publicity before entering the adult industry, said. “It just made sense to combine our knowledge of the industry to create a company that offers the best in media relations solutions.”
Beaumont’s reputation in publicizing her past clients, knowledge of product sponsorships and her role in organizing the media on the red carpets of the largest and most memorable adult parties dovetailed with HentaiÕs public relations business.
“While I’ve built the names of my clients through my solid relationship with the media, working together with Shari means we can offer our clients more than just public relations,” Hentai, a graduate of the Defense Information School and a freelance business writer before his stint as an editor at AVN, said. “With our combined efforts, Plan 9 Media Group offers promotional campaigns as well as media coordination during events to complement our publicity efforts.”
Plan 9 Media Group offers established adult businesses an opportunity to augment their existing promotions and public relations departments. Smaller companies, who do not have the resources to maintain an in-house publicity department, will be able to draw on the expertise of the company.
Hentai said the adult industry is evolving. Successful companies, like their mainstream counterparts, understand they are in the entertainment industry and need to put their efforts into public relations and publicity.
“However, to understand adult you need to spend time working in it. Publicity agencies with a mainstream orientation do not have that knowledge and freelancers in the adult industry often lack a background outside of adult. Shari and I bring real world publicity and public relations experience as well as our years of involvement in this industry to Plan 9 Media Group Ñ it’s what sets us apart from the pack.”

Erotica LA Joins Forces with Sexopolis for Spectacular Afterparty
May 21, 2008
Los Angeles, California – Erotica LA has joined forces with the Hollywood adult promotion juggernaut Sexopolis. The alliance of the two
superpowers will result in an exclusive after party available through a special Saturday, June 7th package price of $45.
“That’s a value of over ninety bucks you get for $45″ Said Sexopolis producer Matthew Grim. “And you get every pennies’ worth. Ron Jeremy
will be hosting. Dave Navarro, Joanna Angel, and Metal Sanaz will be special guests for the evening, and Matt Zane has returned as the dark
and sinister anti-host for the night’s debauchery. The place will be packed with porn stars. You get all of that with your $45 Erotica LA
Saturday package. This will be the most sizzling Saturday of the summer!”
This is the first time Erotica LA and Sexopolis have worked together on such an experience, and the producers of Sexopolis are up for the
challenge. This marks the fourth Sexopolis in three years. As longtime promoters of such mainstream talent as Jane’s Addiction, Run DMC, and
Nirvana, producers of the legendary Hollywood Bondage Ball and West Coast Fetish Ball, the Sexopolis staff is more than ready to deliver a
night to remember.
“We have a great relationship with Erotica LA and AVN thanks to having a Bondage Ball booth and stage shows at the convention last year, but we really wanted to do something more exciting to make Erotica LA 2008 an event not to be missed. When they came to us asking for input and
suggestions, we were honored to step up and create something sensational all the fans could appreciate. We’re truly going to make this a night
where everyone can party like a porn star.”
The official Erotica LA after party by Sexopolis will be held at Crash Mansion, a concert grade venue, just 4 blocks from the convention
center. Directions will be available when ticket buyers pick up their VIP party pass at Erotica LA. Doors open at 10:00 P.M. for this

FOXE A Go-Go
May 21, 2008
Combining the ”Broasting of Ginger Lynn” with a few very special honors – plus a dazzling diversity of adult oriented acts including the magnificent Sunny Lane opening the show – FOXE 2008 is set for Sunday evening June 8 at the world famous Whiskey a Go-Go (8901 Sunset Blvd. in West Hollywood) according to Fans of X-Rated Entertainment co-founder William Margold.
”The first FOXE event was held at Gazzarri’s (9039 Sunset Blvd.) in 1991, and with lusty detours to the Country Club in Reseda, the Mayan in downtown Los Angeles, the Diamond Club in Hollywood, and the Mayflower Ballroom in Inglewood, FOXE has taken 17 years to walk down about two blocks down Sunset” states Margold, who with the legendary adult actress Viper, created FOXE in 1989 to give the fans of adult entertainment, for the very first time, a chance to vote for their ”Favorites” (Actor, Actress and ‘Vixen’).
Based on the motto: ”If society refuses to admit that it is jacking off, then it shouldn’t be upset when Congress cuts off its dick,” – a Margold sentiment that ignited a membership that was once close to 2000 strong.
”The organization was jumpstarted when a fellow named Albert Muckermann showed up at Viper’s and my apartment in late 1989, asking if there was any way that he and a couple of buddies could go to the XRCO (X-Rated Critics Organization) event coming up on Valentine’s Day, 1990. Up to the point, although I had always managed to sneak a few admirably persistent fans in, Jim Holliday, who co-founded the XRCO with me, Jim Dawson, Lonn Friend and Kent Smith in 1984, had been determined to keep the fans out of the XRCO events,” continues Margold, ”and I, of course, perpetually maintaining my contempt for rules, would playfully frustrate him by looking the other way as a few faithful fans, including Muckermann, always managed to somehow get by me as I manned the door.
”Viper however realized the potential of a fan willing to ‘pay to play’ – and exacted $300 from Mr. Muckermann, so that he and his two friends would get to go to ‘Big Wednesday’ – the 1990 XRCO event that was held on the exceptionally cold Santa Monica Pier,” shuddered Margold. ”But I felt guilty that that was all I could give the fellow for his money, so I came up with the name FOXE – quickly adding the ‘E’ because I didn’t want to have any problems with 20th Century – and because Viper was a redhead,” Margold reflects wistfully.
”And as has always been FOXE’s policy… all adult industry talent is invited to attend at no cost, courtesy of the fans who must purchase their tickets to support the event… and to show their appreciation toward the industry that entertains them,” concludes Margold.
For ticket prices and any other information about FOXE 2008 contact bmargold@AOL.com or (818) 501-6139. FOXE 2008 is a ”Fun”draiser for PAW (The Protecting Adult Welfare Foundation).
PAW (The Protecting Adult Welfare Foundation) Pledges Proceeds from its Erotica LA (www.Erotica-LA.com) booth to assist Ron Sullivan (legendary adult film director Henri Pachard) according to PAW’s founder, William Margold.
”I was approached by Rob Spallone last week, and called this morning by Paul Thomas to ‘do something’- and it didn’t take me very long to figure out that a good start in raising money for Ron, whose state of health is diminishing and therefore causing great economic hardship for his family, was to dedicate ALL of the donations made to PAW (www.pawfoundation.org) during Erotica LA (June 6-8) to the gentleman who has given so much of himself to adult audiences for well over 30 years,” continued Margold.
”Anyone out there who would like to contribute to Ron’s welfare, is warmly welcome to contact PAW at (818) 501-613, concluded Margold, who also advised AINews.com that ”A goodly portion of the profits from FOXE 2008 (a PAW ”Fun”draiser set for Sunday evening June 8 at the Whisky a Go-Go in West Hollywood) will also be donated to Sullivan.

VCX Streets Four Collections Culled From its Vaults
May 21, 2008
LAS VEGAS Ñ Golden Age classics distributor and producer VCX brings four collections Ñ “John Holmes: Extreme Facials,” “Sex Slaves of Satan,” “Forbidden Lolitas” and “Starfuckers” Ñ featuring its best all-time scenes from the company’s private vaults to store shelves this week.”John Holmes: Extreme Facials” features prodigious blasts to the face by legendary male performer John Holmes, “Sex Slaves of Satan” showcases controversial scenes from VCX’s library of titles, “Forbidden Lolitas” puts the spotlight on porn’s first crop of barely legal teens to get naked in front of the camera and adult’s Golden Age superstars are immortalized on DVD in “Starfuckers.” All time greats such as Desiree Cousteau, Dorothy Lemay, Shauna Grant, Lisa DeLeeuw, Amber Lynn, Rhonda Jo Petty, John Holmes, Ron Jeremy and Paul Thomas appear in the titles.
David Sutton, president of VCX, said the scenes featured in the four newly released collections are from the company’s highest quality digital masters and that they do not use footage sourced from VHS tapes or pirated material.
“There’s a lot of companies putting out similar titles featuring scenes from the Golden Age, but many of them use footage they don’t have rights for,” Sutton said. “Pirated movies are always of lower quality in every respect! There’s no way VCX would ever release crap like that.
“We’re legit, proud of it and we urge the fans and retailers to support VCX, the company that started it all when porn was a dirty word!”

Digital Playground Releases “Contract Star” on Blu-ray(TM) Disc
May 21, 2008
May 20, 2008 — VAN NUYS, Calif. — Demonstrating its desire to remain at the forefront of technology, Digital Playground is set to release one of its biggest sellers, “Contract Star” on Blu-ray(TM) Disc. The film’s ship date is May 16th, with a street date of May 23rd. The “Contract Star” trailer is available for viewing at www.digitalplayground.com/mov/contractstarbd.html
Digital Playground continues to house the largest library of High Definition movies and is adding new titles daily. Company Founder Joone comments, “Robby’s film ‘Contract Star’ will be our 15th release using Blu-ray technology. We have mastered the medium, making our stars come to life on the screen and bringing more realism into the fantasies we create. We have embraced high-definition formats aggressively and it’s paying off; we are committed to releasing our entire library.”
“Contract Star” features the talents of Digital Playground contract stars Jesse Jane® and Teagan Presley. Not only do these sexy stars suck and fuck their way through the film’s men, but “Contract Star” offers their first ever girl-girl scene together. Don Houston, reviewer for XCritic.com, is blown away by the level of talent that both girls have. He raves, “Jesse Jane [is] the porn star equivalent of a nuclear bomb that has set the world afire in the last couple of years. [She is] proudly displayed on the front cover as the feature gal for good reason. Her scene with the mighty Evan [Stone] was nothing short of great…[Teagan Presley] appeals to a different part of me than [Jesse] and the contrast will likely appeal to others as they watch her in action…Her all natural body is going to continue pleasing men for a long time.” Jenaveve Jolie contributes to the film’s heat with a heart-pounding strip tease and a cock-pounding fuck session.
Unlike most adult film that focuses solely on the sex, “Contract Star” succeeds as a truly humorous film with plenty of scathing jokes directed at the porn industry itself. Robby D. (“Cheerleaders” and “Babysitters”) once again demonstrates his ability for both comedic and sexual timing. The movie had P. Weasels of GameLink.com thoroughly amused throughout: “The quest for a really funny porn movie is a long one; the list of people in porn who think they’re funny but are really not funny is also very long. Robby D. is a man with a sharp stick, which he is using to poke the eyes of people who suck in porn, and ‘Contract Star’ is that sharp stick. Robby D. is inviting you in to laugh at what he thinks is funny, and that’s the best kind of comedy.”
“Contract Star” won numerous awards including “Best Feature Production” (Nightmoves Award Show), “Best Comedy Video” (AFWG), “DVD of the Year” (CAVR), and “Critic’s Choice” (Adult DVD Reviews). The film also helped director Robby D. to win the “Best American Director” award at the Venus Award Show.
Digital Playground CEO, Samantha Lewis understands the marketability of comedy in adult entertainment. She says, “The best comedians are the ones who can make fun of themselves. Robby’s take on the industry is extremely entertaining because of his inside understanding of how things work. He makes every minute of the film worth watching. Of course it also helps that Jesse and Teagan are at their best and most beautiful…and that we used a bit more formal methods in hiring them as our contract stars.”
Not only does “Contract Star” offer hot sex and lots of laughs, but it includes an insightful “Behind the Scenes” feature that shows the cast and crew goofing off on set and acting natural. May 23rd is the anticipated release of “Contract Star” on Blu-Ray disc. Blu-Ray makes it easy to see why Digital Playground is the definition of great sex.

Sunny Lane Finally Takes it in the Butt
May 19, 2008
(Hollywood, CA) Adult superstar Sunny Lane finally gave up her highly sought after curvaceous round rump during a spirited anal sex scene with Manuel Ferrara on the set of Elegant Angel’s Big Wet Asses 13.
Her first ever on-camera anal came in the midst of her Déjà vu sponsored Girl-Next-Door Tour 2008 as the Florida native had been reluctant to engage in anal sex but felt the opportunity to be the cover girl for the thirteenth edition of the popular Big Wet Asses series was enough incentive to take the back-door plunge.
“I was nervous at first with all of the anticipation before the scene and when Manuel came in I got really excited yet I tried to remain calm. I was ready for this and Manuel was a true gentleman and great lover,†Lane said following the anal excursion.
In her fourth year in the porn business, Sunny’s on-camera virginal ass has been something of a story on adult tabloid message boards as fans have speculated if she was going to do a derriere debut, but that act hadn’t come to fruition until now.
“I really haven’t even done it very well in my personal life except for a few attempts so the fans are going to get a first crack at my ass crack,†Lane joked. “I can see now how so many girls can orgasm this way. It was wonderful,†she said.
Award winning director, William H. was pleased with the entire movie and very happy that he was able to be a part of Sunny’s debut. “We have some really great girls in this thirteenth edition and having Sunny on set was terrific,†he said.
The multi-award winning Ferrara knows a thing or two about anal sex and was a real asset according to Lane. “His cock is fat like a soda can but he prepped me really well before he started to bang me in my pussy and then in my butt,†the former professional ice-skater turned porn star said.
Now that the on-camera anal deflowering has been taken care of Sunny says she has no immediate plans to jump back into the butt sex business. “I’ll think I’m going to wait a bit before I do this again because I want this movie to be special.â€
Fans in Florida can see Sunny Lane’s Girl-Next-Door Tour 2008 as she hits her hometown of Tampa, Florida next Thursday. Experience Sunny’s spectacular themed feature dance shows at the Déjà vu Showgirls May 22nd, 23rd & 24th with three shows nightly 10PM, 12AM and 2AM.

Digital Playground Releases Katsuni: Video Nasty 4
May 19, 2008
May 19, 2008 — VAN NUYS, Calif. — Digital Playground’s “Katsuni: Video Nasty 4″, the much anticipated fourth installment of the best selling series, makes its debut on May 22nd. In the Celeste directed film, Digital Playground contract star, Katsuni has a sexual fire that will leave fans twice-baked, smoldering, and wanting more. The “Video Nasty” series is an erotic ride into the kinky mind of Celeste, taking full advantage of Digital Playground’s superior technology and hot contract girls. The trailer for “Katsuni: Video Nasty 4″ is available at www.digitalplayground.com/mov/videonasty4.html
Despite being dubbed one of the “10 Most Popular Porn Stars in America”, Katsuni remains an enigma to many fans of adult entertainment. Samantha Lewis, Digital Playground’s CEO explains, “Katsuni is one of the most sensual contract girls we have and is definitely a huge star, but she has managed to remain mysterious even in this cyber-gossip age. She resides in France, and I think that has a lot to do with the mystery that surrounds her. Her films and her dance appearances are increasing, but I don’t think her international residence hurts her popularity. It’s basic macroeconomics–the laws of demand.”
Katsuni remains popular with Don Houston, the head critic at XCritic.com. Referring to the exotic babe in several reviews, he wrote that Katsuni “could suck the chrome off a trailer hitch. [She is] one of the most established Asians in porn and a wonderfully skilled performer…[and] has been one of the most extreme anal queens in porn for some time now; ending up in many hot scenes with her ass taking large pipes of all shapes and colors in front of the camera. Her performance[s], from…awesome oral to…ball draining anal with ATM, [is] fantastic and I can see why…Digital Playground keeps using her services. Whew!”
“Katsuni: Video Nasty 4″ also features Digital Playground’s rising star, Stoya(TM). The action starts right away with Katsuni and Stoya sharing intense kisses, naughty licks, and one lucky guy’s cock. The girls showed the type of chemistry with each other that Digital Playground is famous for. From there, the fucking only gets wilder. Helping out in “Katsuni: Video Nasty 4″ are Evie Delatosso, Jandi Lin, Keeani Lei, Abbey Brooks, and Brianna Love. The girls may be beautiful, but what they do is just plain nasty.
In addition to the movie, “Katsuni: Video Nasty 4″ includes a 12 minute extra that is an informative look at the making of the film and the starring girls. There is also a slideshow, a photo gallery, a pop shot compilation from the scenes, as well as trailers to hit Digital Playground films and upcoming releases. “Katsuni: Video Nasty 4″ is presented in 16:9 widescreen format with 5.1 digital surround sound and no regional coding
