Tito Ortiz Goes To Jail For Beating Up Jenna Jameson

TMZ, The Houston Chronicle … heck, pretty much all major news outlets are reporting today that Tito Ortiz was arrested after beating up Jenna Jameson.  Jenna says it was no minor incident and that she will be pressing charges.   Jenna has filed a restraining order against him and at the very least, as a result, the two will be apart for one month.

I have posted the entire story for you below from the Houston Chronicle.

Ortiz arrested after fight with ex-porn star girlfriend

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. — Mixed martial arts star Tito Ortiz was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence Monday at the home he shares with his longtime partner, former adult film actress Jenna Jameson.

Police Lt. Mike Reynolds said Ortiz, the former UFC light heavyweight champion, was taken to the Huntington Beach jail and was released after posting $25,000 bail.

Reynolds said police can’t make an arrest on suspicion of domestic violence unless there’s a “visible injury,” and the unnamed victim’s injuries met that standard. Reynolds wouldn’t elaborate, saying only that Ortiz and the victim have been “extremely cooperative.”

Jameson and her father spoke to TMZ.com and other reporters outside the home Monday. Wearing a wrap on her right elbow, Jameson described herself as “completely shocked” by the incident, saying Ortiz had “lashed out” at her, leaving her feeling “betrayed.”

The 35-year-old Ortiz is among the most decorated and popular fighters in MMA history. He was the UFC’s light heavyweight champion from 2000 to 2003 during the formative years of the sport’s dominant promotion, making five title defenses before losing his belt to Randy Couture.

Ortiz, whose nickname is the Huntington Beach Bad Boy, is a former collegiate wrestler has been competing in MMA since 1997. He has been in a relationship with Jameson since 2006, and she gave birth to twin boys in March 2009.

After his career declined amid several injury problems, including major back surgery, Ortiz left the UFC in 2008 in a bitter dispute with president Dana White, his former manager.

Ortiz re-signed with the UFC last year, losing a split decision to Forrest Griffin in his return fight last November. Ortiz is winless in his last four UFC fights since October 2006, with his celebrity and high-profile relationship with Jameson overshadowing his octagon abilities.

Ortiz served as a coach on the most recent season of “The Ultimate Fighter,” the UFC’s popular reality television show currently airing on Spike. Yet he apparently was forced to drop out of the show during its taping earlier this year, and the UFC already has announced it will replace him with Rich Franklin for the show’s traditional season-ending bout with fellow coach Chuck Liddell.

Kaylani Lei and Alektra Blue public service announcement

LOS ANGELES, CA – (APRIL 23, 2010 ROADS TO MOSCOW) – As the 2010 XBIZ People’s Choice for Porn Studio Of The Year, Canoga Park-based Wicked Pictures is pleased to announce that two of its contract superstars are stepping out to inform the public about the ramifications of illegally downloading adult content. 2010 AVN award winners Kaylani Lei and Alektra Blue are joining a host of other performers and directors in a star-studded c produced by the Free Speech Coalition, the trade organization of the adult entertainment industry.

Known as The FSC All-Star Anti-Piracy PSA, the provocative clip inter-cuts sequences with Kaylani and Alektra with segments featuring such stars as Joanna Angel and Ron Jeremy.

The well-produced video not only addresses the obvious negative ramifications of illegal file-sharing but addresses the adult entertainment world’s positive fiscal influences as a source of employment for thousands of tax paying citizens.

On reviewing Wicked’s involvement with the video, Free Speech Coalition Membership Director Joanne Cachaperoobserves, “the Free Speech Coalition is so grateful to Wicked Pictures, as well as Kaylani and Alektra, for volunteering their time to help with this special project. They are both beautiful women, and they represent the adult contract stars that are so loved by their fans.

“But what is overlooked by people that illegally download is that these performers are professionals who work hard at building careers in adult. When you steal any entertainment content from the Internet, it makes it harder for creative professionals to make a living. Illegal downloads have had a terrible impact on all forms of entertainment, but especially the adult industry.”

In summing up her thoughts on the project, Cachapero couldn’t be happier to see the two Wicked beauties uniting with the industry’s best and brightest for such a worthy cause. “It’s great to have Kaylani and Alektra speak on behalf of the adult industry; to reach out to consumers and address the problem of content piracy. They were wonderful, as were all the stars that took part in this public service announcement.”

Tristan Taormino speaks at Princeton University

AWARD WINNING VIVID FILM DIRECTOR AND RENOWNED SEX EXPERT TRISTAN TAORMINO TO SPEAK AT PRINCETON UNIV. ON THURS., APRIL 28TH AMID CONTROVERSY BETWEEN STUDENT GROUPS

Photo by Hank Hoffman

LOS ANGELES — (April 26, 2010) – Tristan Taormino will give her talk “My Life As a Feminist Pornographer” and show clips from her award-winning Vivid Entertainment movies at Princeton University on Thursday, April 28 at 7:30 pm at the McCosh 10 Lecture Hall.  This marks Tristan’s second visit to Princeton in this academic year; in November, she gave a presentation about non-monogamy, and her talk was so popular that the students decided to invite her back.  The undergraduate organization Let’s Talk Sex (LeTS) is sponsoring the talk. LeTS is a student group devoted to promoting sex-positive dialogue on campus.  Through its discussion groups and various events, it attempts to provide a forum for free conversation regarding sexuality.

Tristan directs two series for Vivid, the world’s leading adult film company — a reality series called “Chemistry” and the popular sex education series under the Vivid-Ed imprint.  A best-selling author, columnist, editor and sex educator, Tristan recently won two awards at the 5th Annual Feminist Porn Awards (FPA) in Toronto.  Her Vivid-Ed movie “The Expert Guide to Anal Pleasure for Men” won for Hottest Sex Education Film.  In addition, she was honored for her decade in the adult film industry with the prestigious Trailblazer Award for Lifetime Achievement in Feminist Porn.

In one of her most requested topics on the college circuit, Tristan’s talk will address questions such as: is feminist pornography a paradox?  Or can there be such a thing as sex-positive, meaningful porn?  She’ll discuss why she chose to do porn, the challenges and breakthroughs she has seen within the adult industry with regard to women’s pleasure, and her personal goals for working within the industry.

Tristan’s invitation to speak has already created controversy and resulted in numerous op-ed articles and letters to the Editor in the Daily Princetonian, the campus newspaper.  In order to bring in an opposing viewpoint, Princeton hosted anti-porn activist Pamela Paul, who gave a lecture entitled “Why Porn is Anti-Sex,” on April 8.  According to the Daily Princetonian, The Anscombe Society is protesting Tristan’s lecture and has circulated a petition among students who object to it.  The petition “acknowledged the importance of the discussion but objected to “gratuitous” film clips that its authors said would “damage the conversation by turning away those who would have come if not for the inclusion of actual pornography footage.”

“Pornography is definitely a hot button topic in our society. I look forward to sharing my personal philosophy and experience with the audience about making ethical, feminist porn,” says Tristan.  “I’m glad the organizers of LeTS have not backed down or been bullied by the protesters.  This is a valid subject to discuss on a college campus.  The clips I show are not about gratuitous shock value, they are to illustrate some of my work.  The students can make up their own minds about what they see.  Plus, people are free to attend the lecture and leave before I show the film clip.  Everyone should do what they feel comfortable doing.”

Did your last affiliate check bounce?

Webmaster Checks – the company who handles payment processing for many affiliate programs including Twistys, recently found all of their accounts froze by the department of justice, as they are somehow involved with Brazzers.

So although they are claiming it isn’t really their fault, thousands and thousands and thousands of adult webmasters are without their payments and being nailed with bounced check fees.  And to actually get your money you have to go through a whole world of bullshit with the affiliate companies in question.

Brazzer’s is a sorry piece of shit company that time and again has been proven to commit fraud and theft and now they are directly responsible for all of this problem.  So think twice people before continuing doing business with anyone who has anything to do with Brazzer’s, even indirectly, like this because in the long run I promise it will cost you.

We very recently became aware of an issue regarding our bank accounts being frozen by the Department of Justice and our attorney’s are working diligently to resolve this issue immediately and correct the error in how the DOJ handled this issue. Unfortunately, the Agent in charge of the case, took this action and then went on Vacation. We believe this is not related to our business practices and, therefore, should not have impacted our valued clients.

We apologize for not informing you of this problem sooner, but we assumed that we would resolve this overnight as we would not have expected to have to wait for someone to return from Vacation. We are certain our business has all necessary licenses and registrations, has followed all rules and regulations to the best of our ability, and we know we will have a favorable resolution to this as soon as we have opportunity to speak with the case agent.

We, and our attorneys, are working as rapidly as possible to resolve this issue. We will work hand and hand with each of you and your affiliates to ensure that we resolve this matter in a timely manner, with as little impact as possible. If you are a client and we have not communicated yet, please use the below link to access our contact information and call or email us, be assured that we will keep our clients updated as we progress through this process.

skinworXXX announces sequel to Deviance

skinworXXX Announces The Sequel to the Biggest All-Sex Movie of 2009 — D2: Deviance

D2 Starts Pre-Production with The Biggest Stars in Adult Today

(April 19, 2010 – Las Vegas, NV) How do you follow-up one of the biggest success stories of 2009? This was the question skinworXXX director/CEO Joshua had on his plate for the past six months. With Deviance winning CAVR’s “Movie of the Year” and “Best High-End All-Sex Release” at AVN, as well as nominations from XRCO and XBIZ, the bar has been set quite a bit higher than Joshua expected when deciding on his next release. “Deviance is certainly a hard act to follow, especially with the incredible job Eva Angelina did in the first one. We knew we wanted to do a ‘sequel,’ but we didn’t want just another cookie cutter version of the same movie,” Joshua explains. “With D2, it’s a continuation of the look and feel of the first film, with brand new stars, and some returning faces fans will be very pleased to see. We have enlisted some huge stars new for the next film in the series: Jenna Haze, Nikki Benz, Kristina Rose and Rebecca Linares. Returning from Deviance are Teagan Presley and Alexis Texas. D2 will also mark the long-awaited return of former contract star Adrenalynn. This movie will feature some of the hardest sex acts in adult today, with stars who know how to do dirty.” Adrenalynn had been in negotiations with Joshua and skinworXXX for months previously to signing on the line for D2, “I was so excited to be asked to be a part of this production. Finally, I believe that my fans will get to see the real me instead of the limited porn poster girl image set forth by past contractual obligations… Get Some.” D2 will feature five scenes with the all-star cast shot in the same glossy, filthy style as the first installment in the series. D2: Deviance begins shooting in May for skinworXXX and Adam & Eve, with a release scheduled later in 2010.

Cold Hard Cash launches I Love Lupe

So what do Lupe Fuentez and Sunny Leone have in common besides the fact that both of them are hot as hell porn stars?  Well now they both have official websites with Cold Hard Cash.  I Love Lupe is the latest venture by the affiliate program and is expected to be a huge success.

Although I’m not a fan of the fact that Lupe Fuentez used to play the roll of a underage child as “Little Lupe” for all those child porn pervs out there.  But since she got her boob job, she can’t really do that anymore, and it’s a whole new Lupe so I thought we would give her another chance.

Introducing I LOVE LUPE which is a brand New Interactive website that blasts off with an exclusive appearance on the Howard Stern Radio Show.

Lupe Fuentes Inc. is pleased to announce the launch of I LOVE LUPE, the official website of Lupe Fuentes. The new site features new interactive options for Lupe’s fans to communicate with the industry’s hottest adult starlet.

Currently the number one Fleshlight Girl for the largest selling male sex toy in the world, Lupe is using her success and prowess to enhance her brand and deliver the sexiest adult experiences for her fans and audience worldwide.

“I am proud to give everyone my new and only official website, I LOVE LUPE. I have been waiting for this moment for years,” says Fuentes.  “Here you can find out who I really am, and you can see all my super sexy and nasty exclusive photos and videos.”

“I am not a typical porn star who shoots for every single company and website, making my content not special. I am here just for each and every one of my fans. I truly love what I am doing; I love the sex,I love playing out my biggest fantasies, and ultimately, being one of your fantasies.”

Lupe recently appeared on the Howard Stern Radio Show on Sirius/XM, where Ms. Fuentes talked about her website, and the things she has learned now that she resides in the United States. “I have nothing more exciting in my life than to have my very own website, the only door for my fans to come inside and interact with me and see me be myself. I don’t hold anything back as this is truly what turns me on.” “I will be doing free live shows for all my fans and updating new content every day, so check out I LOVE LUPE I hope you love it as much as i do.”

Lupe is proud to be partners with Webquest and the Cold Hard Cash affiliate program. Lupe’s very first website, Little Lupe, was hugely successful with fans and affiliates, despite the fact all the content was shot in just three days.  For her new official site, Lupe is shooting around the clock, creating the best HD content for her fans and building her career with Webquest. Already, Lupe has about ten times more content than the previous website, and this is just the beginning!

“We at ColdHardCash.com are proud to announce the launch of I LOVE LUPE, the official website of Lupe Fuentes,” says Christian Amico, Operations Manager.  “Lupe is the hottest star we’ve seen in a long time, and is truly one of a kind.
