Um, welcome to the real world. Perhaps you need to do a small bit of research. Digital Playground owns the stage names of every girl they ever signed to a contract. It's not a choice. As a matter of fact, yesterday I worked with Shay Jordan, who is known Jasmine Jinn I guess. Nice

But it shouldn't be. Name any other part of the entertainment industry that owns a person's name? A music label might own the rights to the songs or a music manager owning the name of the group/band. But I've never heard of any part of the entertainment industry owning someone's name except for porn. What if it's their birth name? DP would then own the rights to their birth name?? Many girls use their real names like Ginger Lynn I believe.

The group Menudo is still around because possibly the manager owns that name. But no one ever owned the name Ricky Martin except Ricky Martin.

The real work is done by the performers who put their lives and mental stability on the line. They also might be attacked by society because of what they do. They also usually are never paid what they should be. BUT FOR FUCK SAKE, let them own their fucking name! Shay Jordan is one of the biggest stars out there and now she has to start all over it seems. Not everyone knows her new name. She doesn't even own her Myspace page and her fans think it's her page judging by the comments left -- www.myspace.com/shayshayj The page is only used to promote DP's other projects.

Who the hell cares if Digital Playground owns the girls' names? If they gave me a contract to make equal or even a tad bit less money than being an independent performer for less work, more job security, travel, more free time, AND more choice to chose my stunt cocks...

EXCEPT I had to change my name to Gina Jordan, THEN SIGN ME UP AND CALL ME GINA JORDAN!!!

At the end of the contract, all I have to do is make one myspace bulletin and a press release saying, "Hey everyone, I'm Gia Jordan again. Come see me feature at Treasures from 2/4-2/6."
