“If you or someone you know has ever thought about getting into adult movies, now’s the chance,” John Paone, publicity and marketing manager for Pleasure Productions, said. “The audience demand for new, fresh talent has never been greater, and Pleasure has been an industry leader for over 20 years by finding and showcasing hot new performers at their early, sexy best.”
The winner of the contest joins Tera Wray as Pleasure exclusives. Former Pleasure contract stars include Gina Lynn, Nikki Benz and Krystal Steal.
Interested participants are required to submit two to three pictures along with a 50-words-or-less reason why they’d like to be a porn star. The deadline to enter is Labor Day, Sept. 3, and once all submissions are received, Pleasure will select the finalists for a screen test.
“If a girl’s going to make it in porn, we obviously have to see how she moves in front of the camera with another person,” Paone said. “We’ll shoot her in a scripted hardcore scene — complete with dialogue — on one of our regular sets. If she can carry the scene and we like what we see, we’ll use that scene in one of our upcoming releases. If we really like what we see, then it may be time to take the next step.”
The winner then goes on to pose for a series of both clothed and nude glamour shots and might appear at the company’s trade show booth to gauge how she handles meeting and greeting fans.
“We’re timing this so our ultimate winner will be ready for the Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas in January, ‘08,” Paone said. “That show is the perfect opportunity for new talent to meet retailers and consumers in one place, and to create relationships that will make people want to watch her movies. Tera Wray was a huge fan favorite at the ’07 show, and her career took off with several personal appearances around the country, excellent DVD sales, and even her own mainstream radio show.”
