VIVID STUDIO INSIDER FOR MAY 15, 2009

VIVID SIGNS AJ BAILEY AS NEWEST CONTRACT GIRL - Vivid has signed AJ Bailey, a blue-eyed blonde with a master's degree, as its newest Vivid Girl. AJ is well-traveled, well-educated and glamorous. She says the recession has made it more practical and attractive for her to sign on with Vivid than to pursue her chosen fields of anthropology and museum studies. "I'm ready to go to work now, but just not in anthropology," says AJ. "I'm young, I'm hot and I'm awesome. I'll use my degree one day, but with the bad economy, now seems the perfect time to pursue stardom in the adult industry. I don't think people realize how vital the adult business really is as a cultural phenomenon. When you think about it, the main function of humans as a species is to reproduce through sex, so we might as well do the sex part in style and for the most pleasure. Afterall, sex is a primal function and is how we all got here." The new Vivid Girl has blonde hair and blue eyes. She is 5'8" tall and measures a natural 34C-25-33. Her debut movie for Vivid is with B. Skow directing, it will mark the first time she has performed in a sex scene with a man. After traveling widely to Australia and elsewhere, AJ earned her bachelor's degree at the University of Missouri and her master's degree from St. Andrews University in Scotland, the same school attended by Prince William only a year earlier.

Of Throat the reviewer says: "In summary, Paul Thomas's Throat: A Cautionary Tale has a unique plot and it isn't one of those severely rehashed plots of infidelity or an homage to a mainstream flick. This is where the movie excels? there are plenty of good sex scenes to feel good about like Penny Flame and some of Sasha Grey's scenes. Highly Recommended!" And in recommending Going Deep, the latest B. Skow film, he says "The alpha and omega of this Blu-ray is Savanna.
