| There are so many comings and goings to report this month that I have to wonder if porn companies think they are major league baseball teams with the trade deadline rapidly approaching.
The company that has seen the most turnover thus far in 98, Elegant Angel, continued to retool. With the ink on Sean Michaels contract still drying, Brian 'Cheeks' Williams was added to the roster. Williams signed a 24 picture deal with Elegant. No word on what this means for his alter ego Stoney Curtis and his Hot Bods & Tail Pipe series.
Elegant has also swapped contract girls. Just about the time they locked down British babe Roxanne Hall, ElA parted company with Jessica Darlin'. I was lucky enough to sit down with Jessica the after her contract was dissolved, and she had plenty to say.
Ms. Darlin' didn't stay a free agent for long however. She was snatched up the very next day by arch rival, Extreme Associates. Snatching up Jessica was just the latest in a growing list of moves that has earned Extreme a pirate-like reputation for raiding Elegant's talent.
Not everyone signed by Extreme has come through Elegant however. After snagging Ashlyn Gere and Victoria Paris for comeback movies last month, Extreme nabbed one of the most recognized jizz junkies in all of smutdom. Jasmin St. Claire joined the team this month, making a clean break from John T. Bone. I can't imagine what they plan to do with Jasmin. Other than lesbian sex, she's done pretty much all there is to do on screen.
The mind boggles at what Rob Black might have Jasmin doing. Word is the over/under on Jasmin's ego blowing up the whole deal is two movies. Stay tuned.
Following the Jasmin announcement, Extreme also revealed that they have inked Chandler to a deal as well.
This helped soften the news that Victoria Paris seems to be having cold feet about her comeback. Word is, she is worried about the HIV breakout, but one has to wonder if she is just scared Black might have her fucking on a rotting pile of garbage.
In the final Extreme piece for the month, they finally signed a new director to go along with all the on screen talent they have been stockpiling. Mark Archer, of 'Barefoot Confidential' fame has joined on with the gang and plans to continue his interesting combination of foot fetish/hardcore sex in upcoming volumes.
Seymore Butts was supposed to have his new Tushy Girl ready to go, but things did not work out as planned for new talent. She got half way through her first movie and was let got. I guess she just wasn't up to the lofty standards of Alisha Klass or Samantha Stylle.
Former Tushy Girl Halli Aston is still a free agent, but somehow I don't think she will stay out there for very long. If she decides to stick with the business, someone is bound to snatch the pretty redhead up.
I had a chance to view Greg Steel's first gonzo effort, 'Thunder Pussy', this week.
Those of you who liked Gonzo the way Buttman and Seymore used to do, will be quite pleased by this effort. Steel recently bought the title from Elegant and will use it to launch his new partnership with L.B.O.
The licensed use of AC/DC songs in 'Thunder' brings a question to mind. How do porn companies get away with some of the blatant thievery of songs. I recently watched 'Tampa Heat' and there is no getting around the fact that the opening music is 'Those Shoes' by the Eagles. Maybe Don Henley is a porn fan?
From the retirement wire, word is that in addition to being Julie Rage's final movie, 'Thunder Pussy' will be the swan song for Asia Carerra and Sindee Coxx as well. They join the list of recent porn departures which includes Vivid Girls Taylor Hayes and Lexus. Also on the shelf for a while, possibly longer, is super cute blonde Toni James.s
As Vivid loses two contract girls, two more are making news this month. Janine's boy/girl tape with rocker Vince Neil is finally out. Those fans who have waited years to see her suck dick will finally get what they want, sort of. Also, there are rumblings that Chasey Lain's exile may be over and her fans can see her back in front of the camera before the end of the year.
After hearing that Ed Powers has a local, late night radio show, I just had to tune in. Unfortunately I missed the big Luke Ford Vs. AVN episode. What I heard instead was perhaps the most dull hour of radio I have ever sat through. On the radio, Ed is every bit as unfunny and annoying as he is on video. And just so you don't think I'm picking on poor Ed, the callers were equally bad. Low IQ's and alcohol are a bad mix.
That's all for now sports.....errrr smut fans. The dog days of summer are upon us, so stay tuned for more news and notes.
