Opinion/Editorial
Last week word had gotten out that Jayme Langford had retired from porn after not showing up for her “Bree’s Big Screw Review” shoot. Jenna Haze was suppose to show as well but called in sick at the last minute. DCypher was directing the movie and he wasn’t really convinced of Jenna’s illness but had to accept it.
But Jayme never retired. All she did was leave LA Direct and they in return put out that she retired so to try to ruin her reputation in the industry.
DCypher has every right to be upset after two girls didn’t show for the movie he’s directing. But we never heard of any problems with Jayme until after she just recently signed with LA Direct. LA Direct has been rumored to have a long history of allegedly destroying women: porn stars, escorts, and models. They are to blame for this, not Jayme. Jayme says the shoot was booked through LA Direct even though she was not taking any more work from them.
Why would anyone believe anything Derek Hay or any of the people working for him at LA Direct with their history of allegedly abusing women? Jayme left her former agency because she wasn’t getting enough work. The girl wants to work! And she has come across as real nice and professional since entering the business. So why would she now do a complete attitude turnaround if there wasn’t a legitimate reason? The problems started after she got to LA Direct. Blame them, not her.
As of this second, LA Direct still has Jayme listed on their website.
More of the story after the jump.
From AdultFYI:
Jayme Langford issues the following statement: “We (DCypher) have never met and I was not told about the shoot when I was booked. The shoot was booked through la direct even though I was not taking any more work through them.
“I did not flake, I never agreed to the shoot in the first place and
I love Adam and eve and think they are a great company. I had
discontinued working through la direct,” said Jayme.
“You do not know me or what happened. I’m not trying to disrespect anyone, but if you are going to personally attack me and try to hurt my reputation then all I can say is “fuck you DCypher”. Consider this my formal apology.”
Adds David Samms, Langford’s p.r. rep: “This is a problem between DCypher and L.A. Direct Models. Jayme Langford is not a part of this equation.”
From AdultFYI:
Apparently AVN wants to interview Jayme Langford about what happened last week. What happened last week was that Langford, scheduled to work for Adam & Eve, conveyed the impression that she was no longer in the business and didn’t do the shoot.
But days later Langford was working for another company. Langford’s willing to cast it all on LA Direct and went so far as to say, through her p.r. rep David Samms, that LA Direct was unable to provide her with the “professional representation” she had been used to receiving.
My talk with Bud Lee at LA Direct last week gave the impression that the agency was willing to go along with Langford provided she live up to several previous commitments. But Langford didn’t, according to Lee.
Director DCypher, whose shoot Langford stood up, feels someone’s missing the point.
“I find it amazing that she’s still talking about Direct Models,” says Cypher.
“In order to burn Direct Models for $100, she fucked me over? That doesn’t even make sense. What damage this will do her career is negligible. She’s hot and people will hire her. But I think she owes me an apology, Bree Olson and Adam & Eve. I haven’t even begun to get mad about this. But every time I turn around and read that it’s Direct Models’ fault that she knowingly blew my shoot off, I get angrier and angrier.”
Cypher had a chat with Samms recently and suggested that Langford might want to consider making a public apology. Otherwise, Cypher says he finds the situation very amusing. Cypher says he also gets the impression that Langford doesn’t think too much of either him, Olson or Adam & Eve.
“And it doesn’t matter to her that she flaked.”

Every chance I get I attack Derek Hay and LA Direct. When have I avoided it? And if I haven’t been contacted by now, I won’t be. And everything I say has been printed on other sites and still up.

Well Darrah, use euphemism.

They did try to legaly intimidate Shelley Lubben, but the FBI raided them to show them they have biggest things to worry that Shelley.
Darrah Ford

How many times have they been raided? I would have packed up my things and gone into a new line of work after the FBI raided me the first time! Randy Spears is a smart man divorcing Delia now. Get away from that future trainwreck. But sadly she will I assume get physical custody of the kids …… for now.

To my knowledge one.
Derek did try to sell his agency and moved to the Vivid building.

So no one wanted to buy it? Vivid could buy it and branch out that way but only if Asher stayed away.

Randy and Demi do not have biological kids together.
I kinda thought Vivid had bought LA Direct and that was why the heat was off.
Harvey Dent
November 27, 2008
I wonder about Vivid buyiong LA Direct.
Madames Demi and Lexi are as busy as ever, and now there is not even Bellamodels (Michelle Braun) or Hollywood Platinum (Lesly Zen) to act as a front to LA Direct hooker business.
And there are other issues like inmigration, taxes that do not go away as easily.
Also LA Direct is the Earl´s child. I doubt that the agency would be the same under other management. Pimpwich was created by the Eal heavy handed tactics and nazi discipline. Also Pimpiswich always could count in his ilegal source of income. If he tries to go legit 100% frankly I doubt Pimpwich could work the way Pimpiwich worked in the past.
So a buy Vivid would be like a buy of a tainted name. And a name that need a tainet person to make it work.

Vivid gets to shoot all of Pimpwich new girls first for its Fresh Faces series. The last 2 new Vivid Girls came from Pimpwich. Pimpwich shares an office with Vivid. Maybe it is some sort of merger and not an outright purchase by Vivid? And that is why Pimpwich gets to still run things his way?
Harvey Dent
November 28, 2008
But to be fair Suze Randall, DP, Naughty America also seem to get new girls from Pimpwich.
Holly Randall who seemed as a good person actually was recomending newcomers in XPT to travel to Pimpswich!
Holly also mocked Darrah claims quoting moi that some girls working for some major porn talent agencies (not just Pimpwich) were raped in the boarding house or in the managers offices. That just when Risi Simms claims became public.
The sad thing is that several of the girls that told me that were raped have worked for Holly and Suze in both video and magazine work and looking at XPT posts even speak to Holly informaly in porn events.
iwasthere
November 28, 2008
The Holly must be getting a lot of work from Pimpwich is she is recommending them. Nikki Jayne and Brooke Banner had a Club Magazine cover and layout this fall; I wonder if Holly shot those? Holly has shot a Hustler cover before outside of her Suze work which she wanted to do more of.
Or maybe Holly doesn’t have clue. She seemed oblivious to the fact that many of her model friends also escort.
What happened to Risi? I thought she was just talent that has drug issues and mental problems who decided to quit after having a ton of work booked for her though that agency owned by Summer Dawn.
Harvety Dent
November 28, 2008
Risi said that she was raped in the boarding home the first night by a black dude.
I know the case of a girl that was raped in similar circustances by a white dude (not in Pimpwich Manor). She has worked for Holly for sure. Layout and video. Maybe even covers.
I know the case of a girl that was raped in a office by the Earl. I do not thing she was in hardcore.
I read that Sophia Lynn was saying that one of her former agents raped her. Other that the brief time she was in Adam and Eve and the brief time she stayed in porn after being fired from Pimpwichs she only to my knowledge was a subject of Pimpswich.
But I not sure if she had other agents for a brief time late in 2007.
iwasthere
November 28, 2008
Was Risi using drugs when she was assaulted? I have heard that she was a heavy drug user and also had mental problems.
I do think that there are some unsavory things going on it the ‘dorms’ set up by different agencies. I even question if it is legal for agencies to have these sort of housing accomodations, because it is too similar to a slavery setup.
Sophia Lynn was repping herself in late 2007. She was staying at different houses and kinda wearing out her welcome (being difficult to deal with and snorting prescription meds desperately trying to get a fix). I think that the former agent who raped her was that guy in Florida named Eli, who is widely hated. Other girls have made similar claims.
I did not that Pimpwich was a rapist. He covered his tracks well.
Harvey Dent
November 29, 2008
Eli post there in XPT. Too bad Darrah could not ask her.
Sophia Lynn as a Oxiconting addict, Vicodin, Cocaine and some suspect (I do) heroin addict and according to Luke Ford she was severely molested growing up (I suspected that seen her in her ABC interviews) She belonged in a mental clinic not in porn.
The woman that was raped is not a PW but worked for Pimpwich other industry. She did not stay in the dorm at all.
She kept quiet becasue she has even more serious problems with the Earl. And that was some years ago when the Earl was not yet the king. And her day job would not take too kind to know her side job if she has to explain how she met the Earl in the first place. That allowed the Earl to cover her tracks.
Harvey Dent
November 29, 2008
Sorry, his tracks. I think Risi is bipolar and under meds permanently.
iwasthere
November 30, 2008
It is unfortunate she could not come forward about the Earl. If he is ever taken down, I think it will probably be on tax stuff and not the way he has terrorized others.
I didn’t know Sophia was on so many drugs. The people dealing with her at the end of last year were very ‘sick of her shit’ as they put it. They were trying to help her.
Risi or someone claiming to be her husband is still online. She (or he) was posting on a few forums and arguing with people; it probably was Risi given your explanation that she is bi-pilor, because the person was just nuts, i.e. weird explanations when asked simple questions about why Risi had done this or that.
I wonder why the media has never done a story on ‘porn dorms’. In addition to what you mentioned, I was told something else about another agent’s ‘dorm’ and half believed it, but now think its probably true.

Darrah, is Jayme still on the LA Direct site? If so, it is probably their way of saying,’we own you whether you like it or not’.
Harvey Dent
November 30, 2008
When Sophia Lynn stills listed as available in Hollywood Platinum despite being in NJ for drug treatment, and them in ND Dakota ( Lesley Zen fronts that site for the Earl).
I do not think anywone could have given Sophia Lynn any help other than finally convince her to quit porn and drugs. The serious childhood sex abuse types do not get better in sex work. They tend to six into mental turmoil, suicidal anger and depression and serious substance abuse. The only good help they can get is to convince them to quit. Anyone trying to help her “career” was actually hurting her. That is why Luke said “I think we failed Sophia Lynn”.
I traded emails with Luke of her case (he often quoted me as “joe”) and I predicted the outcome when I saw the ABC news footage. You will be surprised to know how some top girls disguise their addictions.
About Risi Simms. When I saw Lukes interview with her when she was based in Florida, she mentioned that she was honorably discharded from the US Air Force. Since Risi does not seem to have any phyiscal disability judging her photos (she was hot!) I emailed Luke telling him to press her the next time on the reasons for her discharge. I suspected mental problems. She does seen to be bipolar and she or her husband did mention that in her posts.
The media have a odd relationship with porn, they either try to be cool and titillated or judgmental withoud digging to deep. They do not know the stories they are missing!
The chick that got raped into the drom I know have a good gonzo year but latter she has become so depressed that she has turned into a unlikeable goth recluse that fight with everyone, she is so afraid of her nighmares that she was to drink and drug herself into sleeping, and so scared that she avoids going into industry events becasue the fear of meeting her rapist. Also she has become a huge heroin addict. And tried to commit suicide twice. She still technically in porn but I doubt how long. I just expect a happy ending. But as well, she could OD or commit suicide. The sad thing is that she is a East Coast girl with a regular non abusive family but she is too afraid of going back to them after having being in porn.

The Hollywood Platinum website is down now and I wonder if it is because of the heat from LE or just hosting issues. That Rollingstone issue that named names was pretty incredible, I’ve never seen that done before in all the high class hooker exposes over the years. They must’ve had an excellent source, plus copies of emails or something tangible. I knew about the upscale escort sites advertising girls who were not available at all or available through another service as a way to generate traffic. They’ve been doing it since their incarnation in 1998 (I remember Nici’s Girls as the first high end escort site; I was shocked to see Savanna Samson on that site for 5k a night).
The girl is probably suffering some sort of PTSD after what she’s gone through. Hopefully, she helps herself and gets on some stabilizing psych meds.
In the case of Risi Simms, she’s probably unemployable outside of porn. She seems so crazy that even waiting tables is beyond her.
Out of all the people ‘rescued from porn’ by the religious freaks, Sophia is the only one who appears genuinely rehabbed. Supposedly, she moved back to FL to be with her daughter, which might be a bad idea, because that is where all her trouble started. I hope she stays away from the guy who beat her up just before AVN a few years ago.

“Out of all the people ‘rescued from porn’ by the religious freaks, Sophia is the only one who appears genuinely rehabbed. Supposedly, she moved back to FL to be with her daughter, which might be a bad idea, because that is where all her trouble started.”
Is a tough call on Sophia. She needs her daughter but at the same time I was worried about her going back to Florida.
She fucked up pedophile Dad would be near, the suitcase pimps, pushers and Capt Saveahoes would be near. She will be exposing herself again to all the triggers that made her fall into drugs and prostitution.
The ideal thing was to have her reunite with her daughter in South Dakota but I guess her exhusband would not allow that.
I do hope she get a quality shrink. She might be suffering from a chronic form of PTSD or worse, Multiple Personality Disorder, based in her behavior and interviews.
One think that helped her is that the evangelical group that is helping her belongs to the more liberal Methodist tradition instead of the more common Baptist/Calvinist tradition. Methodists do think salvation is a lifelong process and not a magical one time process like others evangelicals. So turning her around would be a long process and they braced for that.

“They’ve been doing it since their incarnation in 1998 (I remember Nici’s Girls as the first high end escort site; I was shocked to see Savanna Samson on that site for 5k a night).”
So Nicis Girls started as the same time or even before Pimpwich?
I was told that the Earl of Pimpwich was into straight pimping before he moved into porn pimping and acting.
BTW the Earl has some behind the scenes partners, have you heard about them. A guy who lived in the OC in 1998? Any relatioship with David Amos?
iwasthere
December 1, 2008
Nici’s Girl was before Pimpwich. I remember visiting their website in 1998 and being shocked at what they were charging for escorts.
I too have heard various stories about the Earl before he was a performer. I was told that he was a male hustler in San Fran, so that definitely fits into what you wrote about him being involved in pimping women. Its just a hop, skip, and jump from one industry to the other. I’ve never heard of the Earl having partners (or a relationship to David Amos- the guy involved in that murder?), but it makes sense, considering the vast wealth he’s accumulated in so little time.
Darrah, Savanna was on Nici’s Girls when she was married. I have no idea if her husband is truly wealthy or if it is just a front. They seem to have an erratic relationship and are swingers, so her escorting wasn’t surprising to me, it was the fact that she was so public about it at the time, because then it was not common to see a big name listed on a public escort site. Normally, someone like her would be on the hidden levels inside the site which required a password.

I do think Sophia is one psychiatric meds judging from her weight gain. So, hopefully that doctor referred her to a good shrink in Florida. It’ll be the only help she’ll have in that place. I do think her judgement isn’t really in place yet, she doesn’t realize that her work history and skills aren’t yet good enough for her to be moving to another state.
Harvey Dent

On Sophia and Risi.
Yes I do worry about Sophia back in Florida. She is back in the place her missfortunes started and she does not have the protection of her Church. I hope her SDakota pastor got her referred to a like minded Pastor in Florida and her doctor to a good shrink.
I also send her a list of support groups for sex workers with incest issues on the web. But no answer.
I guess that the only reasons for her move was going back to her daughter. It must has been a huge personal triumph for her go get back the custody. If only she is allowed to move back to SD with her daughter.
Risi Simms have also gained weight a lot meaning that she is on meds too.
One good think of some of the Jesus Freaks is that they do help the girls pay the bills for quality shrinks and meds.
On the Earl.
Yes, The Earl was pushing women in the straight escort business before moving into Pimpswich. David Amos is allegaly a MOB associate, and a Brit with East End connections, that makes me interesed. A good field trip to the OC court records might show some light on the Earl early career as a pimp and how he has some close calls. And Amons murder case was tried in the OC. You might see some common names in the cases there. Calls that pushed him and his business partners to put some layers between the working girls and themselvers. That was the origin of both Pimpwich and the letter soup of high end escort agencies.
The Earl has according to Mike South, done son Gay porn in the UK and that frienship with Trannyfucker and putting that marriage on hold for Kimber means that she swings both ways too. But I guess Trannyfucker is his bottom.
On Savannah.She was escorting since she was a dancer in Scores. Her husband is a swinger and actually according to the official story paid for Savannah´s “Rocco mets an American Angel i Paris” and was present in the set during her scenes with Rocco.
Darrah Ford
December 3, 2008
Jenna Jameson recruited Savanna when she was at Scores. Jenna was glamorizing porn and how you don’t have to be with men and you’ll make a fortune. Savanna turned out okay and not a trainwreck like Jenna. But how many other strippers did Jenna recruit that ended very badly?
Harvey Dent
December 3, 2008
Judging for the fortunes of Club Jenna starlets, most of them.
Darrah Ford
December 3, 2008
If I was in porn, I would never recruit anyone because I would not want that on my head. If anything horrible happened to them, I would feel so guilty. I would tell girls to stay home or go to school. While Jenna was telling girls how great it is and you can make so much money and not even have sex with men, Nina Hartley does interviews saying that the girls should stay in school and not come out there at all.
Harvey Dent
December 3, 2008
Ruby for example did say in LIB that she regrets recruiting Becca Brat.
iwasthere
December 4, 2008
I don’t believe the story about Jenna recruiting Savanna, Darrah. Sounds like PR to me. Savanna is mentally ill and ‘difficult’ to deal with so it just is not plausible.
Thanks for shedding light on Savanna’s hubby. I always thought he seemed to get off Savanna’s work way too much to be ‘normal’. And when Savanna first started her site, she talked about this trip she, hubby, and another woman took to the Caribbean together; its the total opposite of the wholesome image she is trying to portray now with ‘wines’. I suppose the fact that she/they have a kid has made them clean up things, because who would want their kid playing with theirs?
Oh yeah, the Earl is definitely bi. I saw a video online where this guy actually sucked on his dick at the end of a scene and he didn’t even try to push the guy away or get mad. He actually stuck it out more. I wonder if Nikki Jayne has watched that? Lol! That along with the TS signing had to have been a good wakeup call.
The unfortunate thing about the Club Jenna contracts is that they offered huge exposure, but very little monetary compensation. I heard that they were paid $1k a month. I suppose that they were promised that they would make up the money in promotional deals, mainstream, and web site sales (after all, look at what Jenna made, was probably the sales pitch) etc, but it never happened. It is unfortunate that things went poorly for them in their personal lives, because they were not well paid compared at all. When Brea Bennett left them, they retaliated by deleting her MySpace page.
I suspect that the Bellamodels/Nici Girl’s case is still ongoing, because I’ve only read about the madam’s house in Florida being raided and her being popped for having some coke found during the raid. They’ve still got to be collecting info (Demi and Lexxy both seem too dumb to stay off the radar and are probably next). The Rolling Stone article last year wasn’t the first time the agency had been written about in mainstream. The first was back in 2002/2003 in the case of a scammer named Mark Yaghella, because he bought many girls from Nici, like a weekend with a Playmate of the Year for 70k. Brande Roderick, Sandy and Mandy Bentley, their friend Jessica, and Tishara Cousino were mentioned as being bought/introduced from the agency. Interestingly, Tishara and Brande were never banished from Playboy circles after the article appeared and even the twins were welcomed back in after a few years. The other hooker connection between Playboy and the hooker world goes back a few years to Dayton Rains appearing in Special Editions and on the Playboy site as Illana Lesa. Dayton’s gotta be the biggest hooker out of all the former and current Vivid roster.
Gee, maybe a field trip to the OC is in order. I am also starting to remember a few sudden exits from Pimpwich when it first started in 2003, before the Earl perfected his pimp hand.

Woah! I just found and read this. Clarification is in order.
1 ) I am not bi-polar I am ADHD as in I am hyperactive.
2 ) I take absolutely no drugs. All rumors of this were fabricated by a producer who twisted my name around. I let him publish his BS and it got out of hand.
3 ) I gained weight because I stopped throwing up to stay skinny. I am only 4’11 and I weight 85lbs when anorexic/balemic and 99lbs when eating healthy.
4 ) I was discharged from the military because I lied during my admittance. So I took a separation of service rather than go to jail.
5 ) Regarding working in porn vs. the real world. I have no problems maintaining a real job and in fact have done so for the last 2 years. Prior to porn I also had a job. I was only in porn because a bad circumstance which was difficult to recover from. I was only active in the industry for 3 months and most of what people see is archival footage for only a few companies.
6 ) Their were no wild explainations of anything. The explainations were addressing multiple comments in a single place. Anyone familiar with how chaotic forums can be knows it can be difficult to handle a large number of replies. I did the best I could to answer everyone despite many people being incredibly rude and insensitive.
7 ) I left the adult industry because I never wanted to be in it to begin with. I hated it and the people in it. Which is why I did not associate with any of them outside of the few isolated incidences that I had to.
8 ) I have been out of the industry for more than 2 years now and I am living a very happy and healthy life. I have a legitimate career and I am doing well for myself.

Actually Risi did only two hetero scenes and they were a disaster, one with the Trannyfucker if I recall.
She was not meant for porn. But people loved her looks.
