MAGAZINES FEATURE VIVID GIRL

JENNA -- Vivid Girl Jenna Jameson

had a major interview in Entertainment

Weekly and was on the cover of New

York Magazine last week. Karen

Valby’s extensive profile of Jenna

in the October 24th issue of Entertainment

Weekly is one of the most in-depth articles

to date about the woman the magazine calls the “the

reigning queen of the porn industry.” New

York Magazine writer David Amsden

confirms that Jenna has become a “cultural icon”

in an era where “Internet porn is everywhere;

even ‘nice’ guys are hooked. One minute

you’re reading the New York Times, and then

two clicks on Google and—oops!—you’re

downloading highlights from Jenna Jameson’s

oeuvre.”

THE PSB HEADS FOR LAS VEGAS –

If your luck is with you next week, you’ll get

a ticket to “The Porn Star Ball Tour”

when it stops in Las Vegas on Friday, October 31st

at The House of Blues (3950 Las Vegas

Blvd.) At this special Halloween event, Vivid

Girls Briana Banks, Tawny Roberts

and Mercedez will choose three female

finalists who have that one-of-a-kind porn star look,

giving them a chance to win $750 as 1st prize in the

come-as-your-favorite-porn-star competition. Check

out the ticket situation at The House of Blues, since

the tour has attracted sold-out crowds at previous

visits to Chicago, St. Louis, Los Angeles, San Francisco,

Miami, Calgary, Atlanta, New Orleans, Denver, Columbus,

Minneapolis and Houston. Speaking of Houston, Craig

Lindsey of the Houston Press

wrote an article called “The Jizz Age”

X-Rated Starlets Bust Through the Fourth Wall,”

which mentioned Kira Kener and Tawny’s visit

to Houston for the Porn Star Ball. . Vivid is co-sponsoring

the tour with top concert promoter Nikita

Events and COG1 Digital Marketing,

with help from Virgin Megastore,

one of the nation’s largest video and music

chains, and a long time Vivid retailer.

THE SNOW IS FLYING AND VIVID’S SNOWBOARDS

ARE READY – The snow is starting to

fly in the higher elevations and Vivid is ready to

hit the slopes with the special Sims Fader boards

featuring the Vivid Girls. There has already been

very extensive media coverage in print and on television

of the snowboards, and there’s more in the works.

Readers of major men’s magazines like Blender,

Revolver, Playboy, Maxim, FHM, Flaunt, Stuff and

more than a dozen others have featured the boards.

And they’ve been star attractions on CNN,

Fox News and other networks. What are you

waiting for? Check out the Vivid snowboard for yourself

at leading dealers and see why their slogan is, “It’s

the only board you’ll ever want to sleep with.”

TOP GOSSIP COLUMNIST LIZ SMITH

ON VIVID – A couple hundred newspapers

across the country carried an item in the Liz

Smith gossip column on October 24th. Said

Ms. Smith: “You have to hand it to small production

companies that succeed against all odds. Take World

of Wonder and its edgy, pop culture leaders

Randy Barbato and Fenton

Bailey. They have already given us "The

Eyes of Tammy Faye" about Tammy Faye

Bakker; "Monica in Black and White"

about Monica Lewinsky; "Dark

Roots," the Showtime documentary on Anna

Nicole Smith; and most recently, the well-received

feature film "Party Monsters," about New

York club kids, starring Macaulay Culkin

and Seth Green. Well, now W of W

is going to do a 13-episode reality TV series exploring

the adult-film business, focusing on the porn industry's

top producer Vivid Entertainment."
