Seems like they don't pay that much and just limit a girls opportunities. Girls could make more $$$ as an independent. Just sayin.

I think it has something to do with promotion and increased dance revenue. But this is really more of a Gia question, so let's see what she says.

Bad mood: Why me? Why not myspace a few contract girls and get their input.

Good mood: Sometimes there are more important things than short term money. A contract can build a girl like building a brand.

Sure, she's doing less films per year and making less annual income, but the ratio of annual income/ film has her come out making more per film than if she were independent. The terms of the contract are negotiated before her contract begins; thus guaranteed income. It may not be as much as when she was independent, but it is security. Also, under contract, you are not just working for a company but with a company. Career goals may be easier to obtain when you are a part of the company's growth.

Btw, this 'bad mood/ good mood' stuff is from Jenna Jameson's How to Make Love Like a Porn Star where she gives answers to the most frequently asked questions posed to dancers in strip clubs.

Bad Mood Gia: I figured you (1) would know and (2) are also articulate enough to write an answer. I try and keep my myspace use limited to posting Gia art and trashing Erin, as you know.

Good Mood Gia: "Building a brand" is a very good answer, which I suppose ties to the promotion thing I mentioned earlier. The security issue makes sense too.

(Isn't the edit function fun? )

Yes it is and actually a good read. I normally don't read, though. The Game was amazingly hilarious.

the game is classic, i really enjoyed it partly because i was aware of the posts of most of the internet guys he mentions. the dirt is equally good up, well until tommy lee just keeps crapping on about pam. you share hepatitis, 2 kids and a lack of relevance to today's society tommy, get over it.

a girl i know highly recommends the jenna book, but i just don't care enough about her to read it.

Simplest answer - fixed income, aka salary, irrespective of the movies made by the company.

Think about it - an independent girl has to actually ger her ass off the bed pretty much every day if she needs the money. Then there are the drawbacks of gonzo porn - deepthroat fucking, brutal DP's, creampies, hard ass fucking, black dick - the brutalities are endless

And now think of a contract company - they take time over productions with the aesthetic makeovers, u don't hafta get out of bed everyday cause ur gonna get paid no matter what, nobody is gonna ram their dick down your throat or make you take black dicks etc. etc.

Get it?

I know Sunrise Adams and she did very, very well under her Vivid contract (over 300,000 per) for at least 2 years. The combined toy, video, appearance and endorsement income for a few of these girls is enormous.
