A coupla glaring omissions: Ariana Jollee,Sabrine Maui,Selena Silver,Vicky Vette, Melanie Jagger, HELLO?!!!

And I'm not complaining just because these girls appear in my movies.

O.K., maybe I am.

What are your thoughts?

Correct me if I'm wrong but both Melanie & Sabrine have been doing this for a couple of years...right?...still, you are right on the money with Vicky, Selena & especially Ariana not being included.

My thoughts are that these nominations are always a bigger joke than the Oscars and Grammys combined. And it's no secret how the nominations are handed out, especially when it comes to naming movies, as opposed to stars.

My Thoughts

Check out the links at the end.

I think Rog and CAVR have much better choices.

Two words for this list -- outright travesty.

I wouldn't have nominated any of the performers on this list except for Crystal Ray and Ashley Blue. At least she's also been nominated for best female performer so she has two chances to win.

And how did they overlook Amee Donavan? Wasn't her name the third most looked for according to web search engines?

Pretty confusing to me, especially how one qualifies as a "starlet." I thought it was only for someone's first year in the biz.

I dunno about you guys, but I LOVE Alaura Eden. She's got such an exotic look to her and her scenes are very hot. She just doesn't appear in enough movies.

For the most part I like the nominees, particulary Crystal Ray, Lauren Phoenix and Mercedez (if it's the one from No Cum Dodging Allowed).

I would have liked to have seen Sabrine on this list, but I don't really have much of an opinion for the others Tom listed. Their scenes just don't seem all that special to me. Hey, you can't nominate everybody that's good.

skronker,

Technically, according to the AVN, female talent that have been in the biz for 18 months or less may qualify for the "Best New Starlet" nomination. However, these time constraints have been 'bent' a bit in the past.

Yep, Ashley Blue.

But hasn't Jesse Jane gotten a lot of attention -- even though she just does the glossy stuff? I saw her on a Family Business episode. She seems like just the Vivid Girl-type that usually wins this stuff -- right?

Anyway, I hope it's Ashley Blue. Though I've enjoyed Ander Page, Crystal Ray and Cindy Crawford a lot as wel this year. Still, Ariana, Selena and so many other glaring omissions! Sheesh!

Hey, how's it going,

AVN doesn't know what they're doing. They are the ones that nominated Taylor St. Claire and Lexington Steele for Best Anal Scene for "Underworld." Of course, there's nothing wrong with that except for the fact that Taylor and Lex didn't do anal in the scene.

They probably don't watch nearly as much pornography as most of us do which may not be a bad thing. Wait. It is considering that it is their job to watch it.

To ignore Arianna Jollee in this category is a fucking joke.

Interesting group...Kaylani is hot, hot...Crystal is one of the best performers working right now, Cindy is very hot as well. Story and Jesse are teh big contract girls and probably will win. (One of them...)

Tommy is right...where is Sabrine Maui? Ariana, Selena and Vicky are all hot, but to be fair, probably too new for AVN's traditioinally behind the curve nominations.

On the other hand....Loni? Melanie Jagger? Amee Donavan.

Of course only one of the 15 on this list have done an interview with me....(Jesse) so I must be hanging in the wrong circles. (Though Cindy did pose in her T-shirt.)

Interesting list to be sure...imperfect as all such lists are.

Happy T-Day

I am a little ahead of Rog in that I have interviewed three of them (Kaylani, Stormy and Daisy).

Interesting list really. Yes there are a lot of glareing omissions but some interesting choices for AVN to make really. I wouldn't have expected them to put Simone on their list even though I think she is hot.

As far as missed women and some being around for a while I stopped trying to figure that one out long ago. On one hand they don't seem to nominate a lot of women for this until their second year and then you have years like when Jennifer Stewart won with only one movie released.

Stormy? She's a big, inflated, pretty blonde. She also wrote a feature, Kink, that I thought was pretty good. She the latest in the Brad Armstrong ex-girlfriend line.

Reminds me a lot of Monica Mayhem.

Allowing the industry trade magazine to be "behind the curve" is not "being fair", it's being "extremely generous". An industry trade publication is supposed to be ahead of the curve, not behind it. Websites like iafd Rogreviews and ADT as well as newsgroups like RAME have really made AVN somewhat of a joke in recent years exactly because of their "behind the curve" mentality.

Probably that's because they haven't had any real competition from other relevant arbiters. It's too bad ADT doesn't have its own awards, though I suspect if it did that it would open up too many cans of worms. Probably the only way ADT can work efficiently as a forum that's "ahead of the curve" is to encourage a pluarlity of news and opinion -- as opposed to anything autocratic. But it would be nice if there was some alternative consortium to bestow the honors. I guess there's XRCO, right?

Well we have to be fair. Publication in print takes longer than it does on the web. It takes a while for the writers at AVN to get enough of a look a particular girl to notice. I'm not making excuses for them, we just have to understand how it works.

Their cut off date is always going to make it tough as well. They have to stop in October so a girl making her first movies in July might not even have more than a couple on the shelves by Oct. I have some girls on my Newbie list who started way before 2003 because when I did the polls last year they hadn't quite shown up on my radar. It's an imperfect science.

That said, I'll take Den's awards over AVN's any day. He's the King and the rest of us just follow in his footsteps.

I can't quite figure out Rachel Rotten or Simone over Melanie Jagger or Ammee, but the rest are kind of expected.

Rachel Rotten? I don't get that one. Never heard of Simone.

Melanie Jagger, yeah -- hell, yeah. That girl worked her (ample and so wondrous) ass of this last year or so. She wuz robbed! Along with some other folks previously mentioned. How many cocks does a girl have to suck to get ahead with AVN? Grrrrrr ....

Obi - Actually Stormy is a redhead but other than that you got it right. Though I think she is still Brad's girlfriend but I have been gone for the last month so I may be a little behind.

skronker - don't feel to bad. I didn't know who Simone was either until one of the other press photographers at Erotica LA pointed her out to me.

I will admit to being a little curious as to how they come up with their nominations. I mean if every reviewer nominates someone that would make for a very long list.

Lee,
Do you mean her real hair color? I think I've seen her blonde in a lot of movies,but I could be wrong.

Also, I hear she's with Pat Myne now.

If we're talking about the same Stormy anyway.

Married to Pay Myne.

Also, I think that AVN being a little behind isn't a horrible thing. It gives girls a little more of a chance to become more mature in their scenes. Although for this year, I think Taylor Rain may have started out with her higher-profile gonzo stuff early enough to warrant a nom this year. But Arianna didn't even hit my radar until July, and I wouldn't have really considered her nom-worthy until October, IMO. And I'm knee-deep in gonzo stuff.

I also think that AVN has gotten a bit better with their choices for winner for the female starlet and performers categories lately, such as Aurora Snow and Jenna Haze.

I worked with almost all those girls, and if it was my choice, it will be Lauren Phoenix. No doubt for me, she's beautyfull and love sex.

Yeah, but they're way behind the curve on virtually everything . When everyone else is past the curve, AVN hasn't even seen the sign that says "Curve Ahead". I think that they'd do a lot better for themselves if they would hire porn viewers who are capable of writing, rather then hiring writers who are capable of viewing porn.

If they did that, they would only be behind the curve by the amount of time that it takes to put the magazine together. At almost seems as if they are dealing with a learning curve (or maybe even a "caring curve") on top of the publication turnaround.

Lauren Phoenix would be my pick out of this list. I too think there are some ladies missing. Hopefully they will make next years list.

Rog / Tricia - Okay now I may be really behind the times on this one. Rog the Stormy I am referring to is Wicked's contract girl and while she tends to lighten her hair a lot it is red.

But if she is "married" to Pat Myne then that is a big shift.

I'm sure we're all talking about the same Stormy. The thing that's probably causing the confusion is that she does that thing where the front locks of her hair are dyed a light blonde, but the body of her hair is darker. I never thought of it as red per se, but I guess it probably is.

I'm delighted Rachel Rotten has been nominated. After all, punk rhymes with spunk. She's decidedly different and that's a breath of fresh air.

WHO is Simone ?

p.s: Marker, I'd guess the Mercedez who's been nominated is the latest Vivid contract girl. I'm not familiar with the "No cum dodging allowed" series, but chances are these are 2 different girls. I'm not certain though. Lotsa Mercedez in this business.

Wow I am really behind. Just confirmed from Stormy that we are all talking about the same person I am just really out of touch.

And yes she is married to Pat Myne.

Still going to have to figure out how that happened.

Crucifixio_Jones - Thanks for the link. While I knew who Simone was I didn't realize she had signed a deal with Cherry Boxxx.

I have yet to see Lauren in action, Manuel. I only just caught up to Dani Woodward (wow). It seems they have cranked out more hot new starlets this year than ever before -- or is it just I'm watching more porn than ever before?

Andall along I thought Kinzie Kinner was the girl for you

I never heard of the last 4 in this list.
Apart from the main missing names that others already noted (Ariana, Amee, Melanie, Selena) I am striked by the fact that there are no Brit girls. The tall duo of Angel & Ashley Long really rocked the hard world during the last year and Alicia Rhodes was not that far back.
Is this category only for US girls?

BTW, another name that I would have added is the one of Juliana Kincaid, very cute and into a lot of stuff.

I'm assuming this is both euro and US, since I saw that Sylvia Saint won some years back.

Anyway, I don't watch too much US stuff outside of Anabolic so many of the US talent I haven't seen in action. But Ander Page and Amee Donavan were the best new US talent I've seen this year.

As for the euro newbies:
Simony
Niki Belucci , aka Foxy, Cover girl from Pickup Lines #74
Mercedes - from No Cum dodging Allowed
Bellissima - too many aliases to mention

Thank you for considering these personal favorites. I would hate for any of them to leave the wonderful world of porn because they thought they were taken for granted.

Simone is half-black, half-Puerto Rican although she has been in asian and latina themed videos. Standing at 5'2" and 105lbs, she's been in the biz for nearly a year now, since the last Adult Entertainment Expo in Vegas. She was a stripper for about a year and then worked with Jack Napier and West Coast Productions. She's done a little bit of work for everybody since then, Afrocentric, Kick Ass, and Video Team mostly. The scene to watch for her in I'd say would be in New Sensations Erotica XXX #3 which pairs her with Nacho Vidal. Hopefully, by January she hopes her website Club Simone will be up and running.

Question:
Is Niki Bellucci (aka Foxy) the same woman as Maria Bellucci, who also uses several aliases and who appeared in "Private Xtreme 9: Wet Young Bitches" ?

I'm guessing YES, because iafd lists Niki in Private Xtreme 7, and what are the odds of two Private Belluccis in the same year? Okay, that answers that I think.
