It puzzles me too...
I've already made the case for Playmates
HERE and judging from the talk over on
ADT, Jewel De'Nyle seems to be the only one listening, with everyone seemingly agreeing that Nikki Ziering (nee Scheiler) was on the verge of making her hardcore debut for Jewel's nascent company Platinum Jewel. Failing that, Jewel is apparently also making inroads with some lesser-known pro wrestling valet-type chicks.
Nothing achieved yet, but at least she's trying.
Private also made some half-hearted (or more like
half-assed) moves in this direction, which I have commented upon
HERE. Frankly, some of the names they are throwing around beggar belief, but I guess that is just indicative of the state of their upper management at the time. I believe the intention behind it was correct though...hardcore sex is beginning to creep into a lot of European 'arthouse' films like 'All About Anna', 'Nine Songs' etc., so tiny cracks are starting to appear in the dam, but I don't think I'll see Jessica Alba doing anal on the big screen in my lifetime.
You would think a company like Vivid would be all over it...celebrity plus production value equals hot product...people don't want to pay top dollar for some piss-poor camcorder footage. They
will pay for professional quality though.
It's going to take someone bold, audacious and visionary to make it happen and open the floodgates...Jewel, it would seem, is currently the only one thinking outside the box, but I think it would need someone with a Vivid/Wicked/Digital Playground-size pocketbook to actually pull it off.
Time will tell on this one, I guess!
