Zero Tolerance, Third Degree Ink Tanya James

CANOGA PARK, Calif. — Zero Tolerance, along with sister company Third Degree Films, has inked adult star Tanya James to an exclusive performing contract. James is returning to the adult industry after a self-imposed two-year hiatus.

Terms of the deal call for James to perform in five boy/girl scenes between both Zero Tolerance and Third Degree. James, who is known for her girl/girl work, has performed in a handful of b/g scenes with a previous boyfriend.

The 24-year-old Riverside, Calif.-native has appeared in more than 50 adult movies.

“During her first go-round in 2002, Tanya only did a few boy/girl scenes with her ‘then-boyfriend,’” Third Degree’s Joey Wilson said. “So the significance of us getting her first five boy/girl scenes is huge.”

James’ first appearances under contract come in Zero Tolerance’s “Doll House 4” and Third Degree’s “Only in Your Dreams 2.”

“When I left the business, I had some other interests that I wanted to pursue,” James said. “After a couple of years though, I missed the fun and excitement of making adult movies. I’m excited to be back and be working for two of the elite companies in the industry, Zero Tolerance and Third Degree.”
