I respect the hell out of you, but I think we do ourselves and our industry a disservice when we presume that because someone fucks on film they are incapable of having anything to contribute.

And in reality, you know I actually am pretty open minded and will listen to just about anyone and see what I can learn. At least until they prove themselves to be complete idiots, in which case I'm more likely just to make sure I'm not in their presence....ever... That's a fairly short but distinguished list.
But I think you'll see the overall perception is WTF is up with choosing her as keynote.
She's 21. She's been in the business 3 years. I had to look her up to see who she was, apparently her mainstream celebrity is one of the bands included their favorite porn chick to spank it to in a video. Oh, and a couple of shots on talk shows sensationalizing "teens in porn" when she was still 18-19. I guess she could talk about what it takes to win the AVN award for best 3 way.
Maybe she really is smart and we're all really underestimating her. It's still yet another highly questionable decision by AVN. The keynote doesn't target the fans, it targets business. Whether it be video, web or whatever, none of us are typically awestruck by talent.
