Triple X Supermodel nabs a nomination for one of Adult Video News’ top honors.

For Immediate Release: November 30^th, 2009

(Hollywood, CA) 2009 will be remembered by Angelina Armani as the year where she began to make an incredible impact on the industry she loves. Starting the year off as a Digital Playground contract girl, Armani took part in some of their highest profile DVDs of the year, including the massive hit “Teachers”, in which Armani was featured in two sex scenes. After she and the company parted ways, the Brooklyn born beauty pressed forward doing print work, on-camera interviews and more before delving deep into her own sexuality and returning to performing with some of the hottest sex scenes of her short career. The cumulative effort by Angelina has propelled her into XXX stardom, making her one of the brightest new stars to recently enter adult entertainment. By making such an impact it became only natural that Armani was chosen by Adult Video News as one of their Best New Starlet nominees for the annual awards.

“I’m very much honored that AVN would take me into consideration for one of their most prestigious awards,” said Armani. “I would like to think that my sex scenes along with all the other work that I have been doing, appearing on AVNlive.com, getting involved with the Free Speech Coalition, trying to make a positive impact on adult entertainment, have all led me to this path. I thank AVN for noticing and nominating me.”

The 2010 AVN Award show takes place in Las Vegas at the Pearl Theatre located in the Palms Casino, January 9^th. Tickets for the show and more info can be found on the official website of the AVN Awards; http://avnawards.avn.com.

Armani already has a history of sorts in regards to the AVN Awards. For the 2009 show the golden haired beauty was acted as a trophy girl for the event. “It was an amazing feeling to be on the stage of the AVN Awards. Hopefully this year I’ll be on it again,” said Angelina

In other Angelina news, the 5’10 beauty is following up her smash hit for Elegant Angel, the appropriately titled “Starlets“, with another DVD for Elegant, “Porn Star Workout 2“. The anticipated DVD features the ultra-sexy Armani in yet another scorching hot sex scene the stunning model-esque beauty is known for.

Lisa Ann, famous for her sexy satire of Sarah Palin in ‘Who’s NAILIN’ Paylin?’ will be in New York City to introduce RealTouch. She’ll appear on The Howard Stern Show on Dec. 3rd and some of the Stern gang are expected to attend the party.

RealTouch is a high tech personal pleasure device designed by a NASA-affiliated engineer that gives men the precise sensation of having, ‘er, relations with the actress he’s watching on a video. It uses “haptic” technology – the same “sense of touch” system used in space flight simulators, for an extremely realistic experience.

It’s happening at Rick’s Cabaret, 50 West 33rd Street between Fifth Avenue and Broadway, on December 3rd from 6pm to 8pm. There will be an open bar from 6pm to 7pm with passed hors d’oeuvres.

For more information about Realtouch: www.realtouch.com.

• Location: Rick’s Cabaret NYC. 50 West 33rd Street, Manhattan, NY. 212.372.0850. Map it at Google Maps. Mapquest.

Jennifer Lopez has been in a furious legal battle trying to prevent ex-husband Ojani Noa from making a sex tape they made together public. And though she did win an early battle to prevent the release of the tape, a new court order states that Noa will be submitting the videos to the court next week. Once submitted to the court, the videos will be entered into open court record next week, which means that the media and the public will be able to get their hands on them.

Lopez had filed a $10 million lawsuit against Noa in early November after he came forward with the tapes, which are said to have been filmed on the couple’s 1997 honeymoon. On November 9, a California judge issued a restraining order on the footage, pending the Dec. 1 hearing.

The National Enquirer has reported that it has seen 11 hours of Noa’s video footage. Some of the highlights of the video reportedly include Lopez checking herself out in front of a bathroom mirror, clad in just a bra and panties, an ugly argument between Jennifer and her mom and J.Lo. jumping on a motorcycle in a short dress and no panties.

The judge also declined to prevent the media from airing the racy footage if any of the news or entertainment outlets were to get possession of it

I came into the office this morning after the hoilday weekend and learned through emails and reports that sadly, David Aaron Clark had passed away on Saturday from a pulmonary embolism at the age of 49.

The award-winning veteran director and journalist reportedly felt ill and was taken to a Los Angeles hospital where he later passed in the company of his two close friends Christian Mann and Aiden Starr.

I had actually met David long before I began working in adult when he was a writer for a couple of New Jersey newspapers and was involved in the Jersey music scene, where I also worked. He also left the mainstream world and was an editor for GENESIS (before we had purchased it) and had contributed a couple of pieces for us in later years. He was always pleasant whenever our paths would meet and we are truly sad that he is gone and our sincerest condolences go out to anyone who knew him.

Rest in Peace DAC

Veteran of 2000 Scenes and Directing Nearly 200, He Joins Exclusive Club

Since entering the adult business in 1998, Mark Wood has performed in more than 2000 scenes, directed nearly 200 others and is now known as one of the hardest working and most dependable performers in the adult business.

That’s why it’s little surprise that AVN has chosen to induct him into the Hall of Fame at its show in January in Las Vegas.

“This was certainly the furthest thing from my mind when I first entered the business,” the low-key star said. “I spent months in Jim South’s office sitting on the couch waiting for my time to come. It wasn’t an easy start, but once the ball got rolling, things have continued to improve over the years. I’m very happy with my decision.”

Over the years he has performed for just about every company in the business and directed for Red Light District, Juicy Entertainment, Visual Images, Devil’s Film and several others. He has also produced movies for his own company, NxTLvL, as well as the company he and wife (and fellow AVN Hall of Famer) Francesca Lé, LéWood.

“Between performing, directing, producing, booking and all the rest of it, I haven’t even had time to think about awards,” Mark said. “It’ll be nice to take a moment one day soon and reflect on it. It really is a fantastic honor. Plus now Francesca can quit boasting about being in the Hall and making fun of me for not making it in!”

He also has several titles/lines he directed up for awards:
Best Ethnic-Themed Release – Latin: Young Tight Latinas 17
Best Ethnic-Themed Series – Latin: Young Tight Latinas (Red Light District)
Best Young Girl Release: Don’t Let Daddy Know 7 (Red Light District)

Katsuni, Tori Black, Mason Moore & Jenna Presley Demonstrate the Thin Line Between Lust & Love!
Digital Playground’s Is He There? releases on DVD and Blu-ray™ Disc December 1.  The provocative feature by director Celeste stars Digital Playground contract girl Katsuni, alongside a cast of leading industry beauties: Tori Black, Mason Moore and Jenna Presley.  Is He There? is an erotic story of power games, betrayal and passionate affairs.  Celeste says, “I love shooting feature movies.  Developed characters makes viewers invested in the sex.  In Is He There?, Katsuni is a trapped and scorned woman who fucks other men to get back at her husband.  When the audience begins to identify with her plight, then they identify with her pleasure…and there is definitely a lot of hot, cock-sucking, pussy-licking pleasure!”

View the Is He There? trailer at www.digitalplayground.com/mov/ishethere.html

Behind every terrible husband is a woman seeking sexual satisfaction elsewhere.  In Is He There? contract star Katsuni is tormented by the cruelest man she knows, the man she married.  Unwilling to submit, Katsuni looks to hurt him through heated trysts with a parade of young studs.  As Katsuni discards man after man, Tori Black, Jenna Presley and Mason Moore happily handle her broken-hearted leftovers.  In Digital Playground’s Is He There?, the girls are ready to take control of their lives by taking control of the bedroom first.

Peggy Mac, Digital Playground’s VP of Sales says, “While Digital Playground has always provided superior quality product in a wide array of genres and niches, our feature movies are what the company is known for.  Combining an erotic story with wild sex creates a movie both men and woman are eager to own, and of course that translates into amazing sales numbers.”

Is He There? on DVD and Blu-ray includes a behind-the-scenes featurette, photo gallery and trailers to hit Digital Playground films.  The DVD version also includes a slide show.  Is He There? is presented in 16:9 widescreen format with 5.1 digital surround sound and no regional coding.

Today is a day to be thankful, not just for the big things, but the little as well. I know I’m thankful for my family and true friends, my heatlh, my country, job, dog, home, and lots of other things without getting too analytical on here.

Here are some other things we should all be thankful for on this day, especially in this industry…

We’re thankful that here hasn’t been a “Mama’s Family” porn parody… yet

We’re thankful that Max Hardcore can’t make a “Who’s Nailin’ McCain” movie starring him… at least for another 3 years or so.

We’re thankful that the adult industry is a gazillion dollar business and the porn is recession proof (insert eyeroll here).

We’re thankful for clueless bloggers out there like “Nobody,” because next to coffee and a morning screw, laughing at idiots is the best way to start the day.

We’re thankful that Twitter was invented, because we were all constantly wondering if and where porn stars ate, and can now keep track of their bowel movements.

We’re thankful that War Machine isn’t mad at us.

We’re thankful that a Rosie O’Donnell sex tape hasn’t been discovered or leaked yet.

These are just a few things that we’re thankful for. What are you thankful for?

Upstart adult production company skinworXXX doesn’t like to do things small, and the results of their first two movies, the all-girl superstar vehicle Sun Goddess: Malibu and their high-gloss all-sex hit Deviance, have shown that. So it’s an honor to the company, which is co-owned by adult superstars Teagan Presley and Eva Angelina, along with founder/director Joshua, to be nominated an impressive 10 times for the 2010 AVN Awards. It’s a feat and accomplishment skinworXXX is truly thankful for this Thanksgiving!

Sun Goddess: Malibu, skinworXXX’s first-ever movie starred Presley, Adam & Eve contract star Bree Olson, Gianna Lynn and crossover sensation Sasha Grey, and earned three nominations. The movie’s all-girl finale with a sex scene between the four beauties has been nominated for “Best All-Girl Group Sex Scene,” while Sasha’s sultry romp earned her a selection for “Best Solo Sex Scene.” The website and online marketing effort behind the movie also received a nomination for “Best On-Line Marketing Campaign – Individual Project.”

Deviance, which was Eva Angelina’s comeback vehicle after a year-long hiatus, received identical honors for its marketing campaign, as well as a nod given to that movie’s all-girl finale that featured stars Teagan, Eva and fellow superstars Sunny Leone and Alexis Texas. Eva also received two more nominations for “Best Tease Performance” and “Best Double Penetration Sex Scene” for her ménage à trois with Marco Banderas and Ben English. Shawna Lenee earned herself a “Best Solo Sex Scene” nom for her sexy performance. Perhaps the biggest honor for the movie was the film earning a nod amongst porn’s elite as the “Best High End All-Sex Release” — a testament to the vision of director Joshua and the incredible camera work by Director of Photography, B. Skow. skinworXXX was also nominated as “Best New Video Production Company” — an honor that highlights an incredible first year in the biz.

Company co-owner Teagan also received a nomination for “Best Solo Sex Scene” for her solo romp in Not the Brady’s XXX: Marcia, Marcia, Marcia! capping off an incredible month for the fan favorite that saw her releasing her iPhone application “iTeagan” and most importantly, being named the newest contract star for Adam & Eve Pictures, who also exclusively distribute all of skinworXXX’s titles.

“For me, this is about the biggest honor I can have,” reflected director/CEO Joshua. “To get 10 AVN nominations for skinworXXX in our first year is an honor. It’s more than we could have ever anticipated and is the culmination of the hard work of so many. This will hopefully just be a great beginning, and next year we are going try to set the bar even higher for ourselves. It’s a cliché, but it truly is just an honor to be nominated.”

“I’ve always been a contract girl, and to be able see a vision I shared with Joshua and Eva turn into something this big is very special,” Teagan added. “It is even a little extra special to have such a huge success with Joshua, who is not only my business partner, but my partner in life. I am excited to see what 2010 holds for skinworXXX, and for my new start with Adam & Eve Pictures as a contract star.”

The 2010 AVN Awards, hosted by Kayden Kross and Kirsten Price, will be held in the Pearl Theatre at the Palms Casino in Las Vegas, January 9, 2010. A full list of nominees and ticket information is available at www.avnawards.com.

Nominations for the 2010 AVN Awards Show, to be held for the first time at the Pearl Theater at the Palms Resort Casino on Jan. 9, 2010, have been announced.

Click here to see the complete list.

Hosted by adult stars Kayden Kross and Kirsten Price, the awards show is undergoing both a physical and thematic change for its 27th year.

Awards will be given out in 125 categories, including Best Video Feature, Best Parody, Female Performer of the Year, Best Adult Website and numerous Best Sex Scene awards. Nominations were culled from submissions by producers of products released between Oct. 1, 2008 and Sept. 30, 2009.

“We counted 6,897 actual new releases, from a total of 13,056 titles put out on DVD (including comps, amateurs and re-releases) this year,” said Paul Fishbein, president of AVN Media Network. “So we dealt simply with what we reviewed during the year, what producers submitted and what our staff and freelancers saw during the year…probably 5,000 of those releases.”

There were plenty of big titles released during the eligibility period. Those receiving multiple nominations included 2040, Nurses, The 8th Day, Throat: A Cautionary Tale, Pure, Tori Black is Pretty Filthy, Flight Attendants, The Sex Files; A Dark XXX Parody, Ass Worship 11, Teachers and many more.

Stars such as Sasha Grey, Manuel Ferrara, Jenna Haze, Tori Black and others also received multiple nominations for their work this year.

“We had a tough time even getting down to 15 in any particular category,” said Dan Miller, executive editor of AVN. “Numbers 16 to 30 in any category were often as strong as the top choices. There was that much good product this year.”

The weekend surrounding the AVN Awards Show is filled with major events, making Las Vegas the destination of the year. The 2010 AVN Adult Entertainment Expo, the country’s largest adult trade show, takes place at the Sands Expo Center at the Venetian Hotel & Casino from Jan. 7-10, 2010.

The awards program will begin at 9:30 p.m. on Jan. 9. After the show, four simultaneous after-parties will commence all over the Palms, including events at Rain, Moon and the Playboy Club.

“This was the toughest year ever with more beautiful girls, great websites, big marketing campaigns and huge movies to choose from,” said Peter Warren, AVN associate editor. “These nominations should be considered awards themselves since there was so much competition.”
