Ela Darling Joins RealDoll Maker Abyss Creations as Affiliate Liaison

LAS VEGAS — Virtual reality performer Ela Darling has joined Abyss Creations, creators of RealDoll, as affiliate liaison.

“The role is a shift for Darling, a veteran performer who is recognized as a prominent voice in the field of VR porn worldwide,” said a rep.

Darling, named Industry Trailblazer at the 2017 XBIZ Cam Awards, is known as a pioneering VR camgirl on VRTube.xxx, a VR live cam platform she co-created in 2015. She also oversaw the launch of virtual camgirl "Vex Ruby" on ViRo Playspace.

Darling has also given talks about VR porn at conferences all over the world, including a 2016 TEDx talk.

“This will be my first notable foray into the toy and novelty industry and I couldn’t be more thrilled that my new role is with such an esteemed brand,” Darling said. “I still remember reading about them in Vanity Fair when I was early in my career as an adult entrepreneur. I pinned up a clip of that article in my workshop as inspiration when I was learning coding and robotics.”

Abyss Creations’ RealDoll earned the 2020 XBIZ Award for Sex Doll Brand of the Year.

“When I learned that Abyss was looking for an industry pro to take the lead on affiliate outreach, I didn’t hesitate to reach out to them,” Darling said. “The RealDoll brand is iconic and their toys are the best quality I’ve seen in the industry.”

A rep said the company “couldn’t be more pleased to find a true gem like Ela. With her many years in the industry, we are excited to have Ela onboard to usher in a new era for Abyss Creations and our brands.”

In her new role, Darling will work directly with affiliates and influencers to improve their success with the brand, as well as create strategies to elevate and expand the company’s affiliate program.

Abyss Creations launched its affiliate program last spring, offering two different programs: one for affiliates and one for influencers.
