We’ve all heard the recent problems that Goldstar Modeling has had with the office in Florida thanks to Eli Thomas.  Well now it turns out, Eli Thomas has been having issues for a long time now, long before he ever went to head up the Florida office of Goldstar Modeling.  Here is a recent fraud report I found about him.

Reported By cleveland hts, Ohio

around september of 2005 i had a contract for alternative modeling to do some video work for me totaling 1600 dollars. In order to start the work the company requried an 800 dollar deposit.

the work was supposed to be done in 8 weeks putting the completion date for 11/2005. The owner of the company eli thomas kept making exuses as to why the work could not be completed. by feb of 2006 he told me that he would be sending my deposit back to me for failure to complete the deal. It is now 10/06 and i have still not recieved my money back, when asked why he didnt have it in 2/06 his responce was i spent it and dont have it.

this company stole my money and should not be allowed to get away with it.

First we hear news that one of their long time VPs leaves Shane’s World for a job over at Girlfriend films. Next thing is we hear that Casey Parker left them. Next I notice something very strange and that was that they now control Devon’s official website and instead of developing it, they make into a links list for trannies, shemales and interracial porn.    That’s some fucked up shit man.  I don’t care how pissed you are at a former client, you don’t do shit like that.  It’s low brow and down right unprofessional.   What the fuck is wrong with people today?  Here is a screen capture of what they put up at her official website.

From what I was told this was done without her knowledge or permission.   Devon who is currently represented by Goldstar Modeling, took a short break at the end of last year (From August 2008 – Dec 2008), only to recently return to working just this month.  From what I have been able to gather, Devon turned over control of her domain name after she left Digital Playground.   The folks over at Shane’s World said if she did that they would develop a new official website for her and so she released control of the domain name for the sole purpose of them creating a new website for her. Despite many promises to do so, they never actually did.

Here is a screen capture of the whois record of ownership for the domain name.

Devon began working with a webmaster and graphics company on her own but something with that deal fell through.  We can only speculate as to what is going on over at Shane’s World but the rumor mill has it that Shane’s World isn’t doing well and by their recent unprofessional behavior with the handeling of Devon’s official website, who mind you only turned it over to them because they promised to develop it with her, we can see there just may be some truth behind these rumors of their imminent demise.

What a crazy year 2008 was.   I can hardly believe it’s already 2009.  Last year just went by so totally fast.  My sister and I have been so busy we haven’t really had much time to post anything lately but I hope you’ll forgive us when we tell you that we have a lot of great new things coming for the new year.  2009 has already started off wonderful.  We found out not to long ago that a few of our movies are getting award nominations from AVN and that’s really cool including our movie Virtual Vivid Girls, The Love Twins which is up for Best Interactive DVD.  How totally cool is that?

We also have a movie nominated for Best All-Girl group Sex Scene, which is Where The Boys Aren’t 19.  We did the scene that is nominated with an amazing group of girls including Lanny Barby and Savanna Samson and Monique and Tera Patrick, Tawny Roberts, Stefani Morgan, and last but not least,  Lexie Marie.

The sad news is that we won’t be able to go to Vegas this year to meet our fans or to attend the awards show but the good news is that just a few weeks later we will be headed to LA to work for the first time with our new booking agency, Goldstar Modeling.  We are a little nervous but also excited to make some new friends.  We don’t really know what projects Goldstar Modeling has lined up for us but we know it’s at least 3 or 4 of them.

I thought we would end the year by answering some questions fans have sent in but I didn’t get around to making this post until the year was already over so we’ll make it a start of the new year post about answering fans questions.

Do you regret anything you have done so far?

Well of course.  Who doesn’t have regrets in life.  I am sure if I put my mind to it I could come up with something I regretted doing but if you mean do me or my sister regret anything we’ve done career wise, then the answer is no way.  We love what we do.  We are both very shy.  I think the correct phrase is painfully shy in real life and being in the movies helps us live out fantasies that otherwise we would never be able to do.   So do we regret being porn stars? Heck no!

When you first started for Vivid you did only features, now you do mostly gonzo, which do you prefer?

It’s easier to make the kind of movies we make now because it doesn’t require us to do things like remember lines but that doesn’t mean we didn’t enjoy making the features either.   Lyndsey and I really did enjoy the time we spent at Vivid and I want to be very clear on that but in the end there is nothing like showing up on the set of say a Jules Jordan movie.  It’s crazy, very open ended and not so structured.  It’s freedom and the ability to express yourself sexually.  There is just nothing like making a movie where they aren’t trying to get a specific number of sex acts in a certain time but instead just being told GO!  And you are free to do whatever moves you.

What are you looking forward to doing in the future?

We look forward to working on some new movies next year and the redesign of our official website.  That’s going to be cool.  I think my sister would like to add that she looks forward to getting that new computer we’ve been talking about so she doesn’t have to share one with me anymore.

Would you ever have sex with a fan?  Or at least go to dinner with one?

No we don’t date fans.   We don’t date or “party” with directors or friends or investors of directors.   Nothing against those girls who do, it is just not our thing.  Most of our fans would probably be surprised how shy and reserved we really are in real life and how much we don’t party.  I would say we are probably the most boring porn stars out there.  When we aren’t on the set of one of our movies or doing a photo shoot for a website we are at home on the computer.  We don’t even drink.

There has been a lot of talk lately about porn stars hiring people to run their myspace pages.  Do you run your own?

I think anyone who takes two seconds to look at our myspace page can clearly see we do it ourselves.   It’s not fancy at all.  I’m not really all that computer savvy so really it’ s a place I like to experiment with.   But you know, if we had the money we would totally let someone come in and help us out.  I don’t see anything wrong with that at all.  Actually come to think of it, we do have a friend who helps us update photos and stuff on our website and facebook page so that’s kind of the same thing.  Speaking of our official website, we are havign it redone for us and I’m really excited.  We are going to change it up to a blong thing so it will be easier for us to do updates on our own.  Our friend is helping us set that up.  I don’t know when it will be done but she said “soon” so hopefully that means in the next few days.

Okay so let me get this straight … Shay Jordan is now Jasmine Jinn, well at least that is what I read over at PS Babylon.  How the fuck did this happen?  This is some crazy sounding shit that I had to look into.  I mean why in the world would an established porn star change her name.  That’s marketing suicide.  Surely there has to be a damn good reason behind this.

We know that Shay Jordan started her career as a porn star in last 2005 or early 2006 and signed with Digital Playground in August of 2006 and like most starlets who sign contracts, she seemed to have signed away the rights to her name.  This isn’t however uncommon.  We’ve known this to be common practice dating back for many years now, even as far back as Racquel Darrian with Vivid and that was in the mid 1990s.  Now a decade later this practice is still taking place.   The few times you hear about this kind of thing, it usually ends with the studio releasing the rights to the girls name back to the performer with a few exceptions such as the time Kira Kener sued Vivid after the dissolution of her contract to gain control of the rights to her name.

Teagan Presley was once under contract with Digital Playground and some would have you believe there was some legal issues with her name because the second she left Digital Playground, she started just going by the name of Teagan however Teagan herself went on record as saying that isn’t remotely the case.  While it is true about the trademark, they (as in Digital Playground) has been nothing but supportive of her career and personal circumstances despite the fact that she is no longer under contract with them.  In fact, Teagan Presley will be signing autographs at the Digital Playground booth this year in Las Vegas at the 2009 AEE show.

So we know that Digital Playground is in the practice, similar to Vivid in gaining control of their contract performers name.  We however also know that like Vivid they tend to have no problems returning the rights to the name once the contract is over, as evident with Teagan Presley. So why this Shay Jordan name change?

Shay Jordan’s MySpace page is clearly run by Digital Playground and they seem to continue to support it and keep it updated despite the fact that she is no longer under contract with them.  That seems odd.

Shay Jordan was in the Pirates II movie but wasn’t as the premier party.

Shay Jordan is now a blonde and being repped by Goldstar Modeling.  Yes the same folks that rep Sunny Leone, Devon, The Love Twins, Gina Lynn.  These guys are showing up a lot lately.

So I made a few phone calls and here is what I was told.  Yes it is true that Shay Jordan is no longer under contract with Digital Playground.  Yes Shay Jordan is now booking all of her work through Goldstar Modeling.  Yes Shay Jordan changed her name to Jasmine Jinn.  And she did so for practical reasons and that is because Digital Playground owns the rights to the name Shay Jordan and it would be a big legal hassle to try and get it back that could hold up her ability to work under that name.  So there you have it.  That is the reason Shay Jordan is now Jasmine Jinn.

Mark your calendar’s my friends because if you aren’t in Las Vegas on the night of January 10th you will want to smack the fuck out of yourself for missing the best party of your life.  Each and every year the big names in the business head out to Vegas for the annual convention.  It is during this show that the stars sign autographs and take photos with their fans and even in some cases party with them.  Such is the case of what has become an annual tradition, with a party called Pornstarville.

Basically fans and friends of the fabulous and famous porn stars we have all come to know and love can attend a very special event.  Every year after the AVN Award show all the stars and industry big whigs head out to the after party and that is where you need to be if you want to hang out and do Jello shots with your favorite porn stars.  Pornstarville 2009 will be held at Studio 54, no not the New York one, this Studio 54 is MGM Grand’s hottest nightspot.  This is a red carpet event.  That means that your favorite stars will be walking down the red carpet getting their pictures taken before entering the club.   How fucking great is that?  I”m told Red Carpet services are provided by XBIZ, but truth but told I have no fucking clue what “red carpet services” even means.

What I do know is, all the hype and bullshit aside, let me tell you guys something, you can go to Vegas all you want and hang out in long lines to meet your favorite stars but if you really want to have a good time get your ass to this party.  Tom Bryon, who I’m sure you’ve seen in a million fucking movies said “This party is going to fucking rock!“  Here is some video clips of Tom Byron getting it on with Jenna Jameson in a hot little threesome, in case you forgot who he was.

Many other stars are invited to this legendary party including new Cezar Capone contract girl Morgan Dayne, and some of the stars from Goldstar Modeling who right now is repping some hot girls including The Love Twins, Devon,  Gina Lynn, Sunny Leone.  and so many more I can’t even name.  I called Goldstar Modeling to find out which of their famous clientèle we can expect to have at the party, specifically wanting to know if say The Love Twins would be attending and he had this to say …

“Unfortunately Lacey and Lyndsey Love won’t be able to make it to Vegas this year or they would defiantly be at the party.  As far as the rest of the girls go, I don’t have the roster set in stone yet but there is a lot of A list talent confirming their attendance, but you won’t be disappointed, I promise you that.   If you want to party with famous porn stars, this is THE party to be at.“

Pornstarville is so big, look at the list of companies involved in it —- Club Jenna, Twistys.com, Bubba the Love Sponge (the dude from Howard Stern), Adam & Eve (does this mean Bree Olson is expected to attend??  Apparently I am told she is invited and as long as she doesn’t get ot fucked up at the awards show prior she is expected to attend — she is one start I personally look forward to partying with personally), Amateur District, Girlfriends Films,  Pink Visual, Cezar Capone, JustinSlayer, Hustler, Bang Bros., Shane’s World, Tom Byron Pictures,Anabolic, Sweetheart Video, Elegant Angel, DVSX, Real Touch, Gourmet Video, WCP, Doghouse Digital, Devil’s Film, Black Market, Pleasure Productions, Magnus, White Ghetto, Anarchy Films, Anarchy District, KBeechContent.com, Gentlemen’s Video, Dreamgirls, Wildlife Productions, Sin City, Adult Business Academy, Robert Hill Releasing Company, Juicy Entertainment, Exquisite, Global Media International Films, Acid Rain,Intense Industries, Evasive Angels Entertainment, Yappo, Amateur District, AllXClub, Giggles.com, NakedChatLive.com, The Candy Shop,Northstar Associates, XCartel, Mayhem, BustBox, Overboard Video, Combat Zone, Third World Media, Voodoo House, Starr Productions, Antigua Productions, Hush Hush Entertainment and Bone Digital.

Again Pornstarville is going to be held directly after the AVN Awards at Studio 54 which is located inside the MGM Grand, at 3799 Las Vegas Boulevard South.  This is the Vegas party of the year – and you don’t want to miss it!  More than 3,000 guys and gals are expected to dance the night away and socialize with sexy porn stars, so make sure you visit www.pornstarville.com for more ticket information.
