The site, AmericasNextHotPornstar.com, which is being managed by and promoted through the PeepShowCash affiliate program, made its soft launch in September, according to PeepShowCash webmaster Tom.
Tom told XBIZ that even though the site has not been actively promoted yet, fans of the show have clearly already discovered it; in the few weeks since its soft launch, close to 1,000 fans voted for their favorite performer among the contestants through the site.
“The site really hasn’t even gotten started yet, and we already have a thousand votes,” Tom said. “That’s pretty good for a soft launch.”
As with the other sites in the PeepShowCash portfolio, affiliates can earn $30 per signup and up to 60 percent revshare on subscriptions referred to AmericasNextHotPornstar.com. Tom said that with the built-in audience of fans of the TV show, along with interest from fans of the individual girls, he expects the site to be a hot seller.
“It’s all the hardcore stuff, everything that you couldn’t see on TV, because you can only get so explicit, even on PPV,” Tom said. “We’re also adding bloopers, behind-the-scenes footage, and the whole nine yards, all the sorts of extras that fans just love. Each episode of the show is an hour, so basically you’re getting 15 minutes of each girl. On the site, there is more — a lot more — footage of each girl.”
The show itself is structured much like other competitive reality TV shows, as 12 performers compete head to head for a $10,000 prize, posing for solo photo shoots, performing lap dances, and finally a taking part in a hardcore sex scene. A panel of adult industry personalities that includes performers Jules Jordan and Kristen Price, and owner of LA Direct Models, Derek Hay, rates their performances.
The 12 contestants for the first season of the show are Kylee Reese, Sienna West, Bobbie Starr, Naomi Cruise, Holly West, Audrey Bitoni, Carolyn Reese, Rachel Roxxx, Savannah Gold, McKenzee Miles, Alexis Texas and Alexis Love.
The first season of the show is divided into four episodes. In the first three episodes, after each of the contestants has been introduced by way of an interview, Price hosts a slumber party at which the contestants spin the “Wheel of Sex” to determine their partner for a sex scene, and the judges receive a lap dance from each contestant which is ‘graded’ along with their other performances to determine the winner of that episode.
The winners of each of the first three episodes then move on to the finals, where they compete in another round for the $10,000 grand prize, and the title of America’s Next Hot Porn Star.
The show’s producers have already begun preparation for a second season of the show, Tom said, bolstered in part by mainstream news coverage, including a recent segment on cable news network CNBC.
“The CNBC thing was great, and shows that word about the show is getting out there,” Tom said. “Now that we’re getting the word out about the website, I’m sure its going to go through the roof, too.”
