Adult Biz expanding ?

[RawAlex]

I am mostly hearing from producer types that there are more girls turning up willing to do the work, which is somewhat good, but it is leading to a massive oversupply that has most porn girls crying for lack of work.

When you consider that "Porn Valley" will apparently produce something like 40% less videos this year than 2 years ago, 4 scenes each... that is a ton of porngirls not making a living. Recently, I have found it harder and harder to find good pornstar content to promote, specifically Asian pornstar stuff. That niche has all but dried up.

So on one side, there may be more girls willing to do the work, but less work, and less actual money getting spent. Sort of a perfect storm for keeping content costs cheap.

Porn Valley talent agencies are going to have to accept this reality pretty soon or they're going to lose all of their talent.

I'm hearing more and more stories of talent booking gigs directly when their agent is telling them there's nothing available.

When the studios and talent are cutting them out of the loop, due to the over market rates they're insisting on, they'll either modify their rates or close the doors.

I agree with Tony on the modeling end, what I'm seeing from this end is similar. I would consider influx of new "adult" models to be about flat. However, we have been getting a huge uptick in models willing to do swimwear, lingerie, topless, etc for at least the last year.

I interpret that as the young girls need the money, but they're pretty savvy about knowing whatever they do is out there forever and may be seen by dad, uncle george or any future employer.

Hookers and strippers....not my thing, so I dont know for sure, but it would make sense that everyone's entertainment budget is reduced. And thus they feel it.

If you don't already have it, Jules Jordan with Premium Cash has a higher than usual number of Asian Pornstars in the mix. Jules must have a 'thing' for Asian hotties.
