"Victoria Paris Retires"
As previously reported, porn legend Victoria Paris has cancelled plans to sign an exclusive arrangement with Extreme Associates.
Purportedly, the recent HIV situation within the adult industry has caused
Victoria to reconsider performing sex on camera.
Victoria will not be stepping away from adult films entirely, though.
The blonde superstar is said to be considering roles in some bondage videos that do not require sexual contact or the exchange of bodily fluids.
"Extreme Associates Add Ashlyn Gere To Roster"
As part of their "Hostile Takeover" campaign, Extreme Associates has
announced the signing of ex-Vivid Video contract girl Ashlyn Gere to it's constantly expanding team of top-notch talent.
Company co-founder Rob Black made the announcement at a press conference at
the recent Video Software Dealers Association in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Rob introduced Ashlyn to the gathering of reporters as "The Legend" a reference to her standing in the adult community.
Ashlyn said the reason for her signing with Extreme Associates and coming back from semi-retirement was due in part to her being impressed with Rob's script for Rubber, a film that will feature Gere and be shot later this year.
"Rob also offered me a great (financial) deal nobody else had ever offered me," Ashlyn is quoted as saying.
Ashlyn will fill a position left vacant by Ashlyn's close friend and dance touring partner Victoria Paris, who broke off discussions with Extreme Associates a month ago.
The deal was so close to being signed that the video production company had taken out a full page ad in the most recent issue of Adult Video News promoting the pending partnership.
"'Heavy Metal' Sequel Secures $15M Financing"

Metal: F.A.K.K. 2" is set to play theatrically sometime around September.
In additional Strain news, the Amazonian B-movie queen is currently appearing
in Playboy's "Sex Court" on the Playboy Channel.
"Sex Court" is a parody of the popular "Judge Judy" show and other court
shows with Strain taking on the role of the court magistrate.
