Greetings, my fellow ADT members. Once again, history has repeated itself and I am extremely late in posting my photos from the eXXXotica NJ show, just like last year. Work has been very busy and my internet connection has been sporadic at best this past week. Back to the show, it was the biggest & best one yet (that's including the Miami shows)! Over 100 girls and around 20,000 people in attendance. I only snapped approx. 900 photos this time around (a lot less than the 1400 I took at Miami last May.) With nearly 140 girls, I decided to relax & enjoy the show rather than spend the entire weekend scrambling trying to see them all. Hence, this report won't be my most extensive. With that said, let us begin. The first thing I see as I walked through the door is none other than AnimeNut getting Courtney Cummz to say "AAAAHH" at the LA Direct Models booth. (IMO, the man missed his calling in life. The girls are always so happy to see & chat with him. When I watch him shooting a girl, she's not only willing, but she seems eager to pose for him. He's like the Pornstar Whisperer, he has this uncanny ability to make them feel comfortable and at ease.)
Isis Taylor working her very own booth, promoting her company Filthy Rich Entertainment. She remembered me from previous shows and yet, she had the audacity to ask me if I was going to buy something from her this time around! I replied with indignation that she must have forgotten who she was talking too! I ended up picking up a copy of her Penthouse centerfold & her new movie "Filthy Chixxx." (It features an all-star cast of Isis, Phoenix Marie, Andy San Dimas, Sarah Vandella, Brooke Banner, & Nikki Sexx. Definitely make sure you get your own copy.)
Trina Michaels representin' Gina Lynn's Skin Clothing line. I had seen her only two months prior at one of her feature dancing gigs in West Palm Beach (she doesn't really dance, but she puts on a live show you do NOT want to miss!) Trina is without a doubt one of my top ten favorite girls. Brunette, busty, a passionate performer and most importantly, she's tall but still has a very curvy figure, which is so hard to find. One girl I always look forward to seeing at a show.
As I walked around I found Justine Joli chatting with Nina Hartley at the Legends booth. While Nina does seem to wear that same outfit at every show, I'll admit it does a great job showing off her best asset.
Tori Black working the crowd at her table over at Fantasy Island. Unfortunately, this the only photo I have of Tori. She was so busy every time I passed by her table I kept putting off seeing her until the next day. It was the same on Saturday. On Sunday I decided to just bite the bullet and wait in that long line to see her but she didn't come back on Sunday! My only regret from the entire weekend is that I missed seeing Tori Black. It was a big mistake that will never happen again.
A girl I did not make the mistake of waiting in line for was Jesse Jane. You can't dick around if you want to see Jesse Jane. You can't go wander around the floor and hope the line will be shorter when you come back, because it won't. Jesse never has a short line. Add to that the fact the she only comes the show on Friday & Saturday, never on Sunday, and she only signs for 3-4 hours each day. She was a blast to see as always. I swear this girl has more energy the the Energizer Bunny. She truely loves meeting her fans and taking photos with them. Even if you're not a fan of Digital Playground's style of movies, you should without a doubt see Jesse Jane at any event she is appearing.
Tanya Tate making her New Jersey debut at the Fantasy Island booth. I have to admit, I haven't seen very many of her scenes. While I love MILFs, I strongly prefer brunettes over blonds and English accents are not favorite. However, after meeting her I was certainly impressed. Tall, voluptuous figure with a refined elegance that only European women seem to possess. She is very personable, quick to smile and the fans really took to her. There was always a couple guys at her table whenever I passed by. I think what I liked about her best is she doesn't look or sound like a pornstar, but an intelligent, mature woman. I could easily picture her as a lawyer or business executive. I will be keeping a closer eye on her career from now on. As I chatted with Tanya, I spotted her fiancee Monstar close by. I insisted he come over for a photo with his bride-to-be. They make a lovely couple. Beyond a doubt, Monstar found himself a good one. If he's smart, he won't let her slip way.
Charmaine Glock working as one of Jada Cheng's Sassy Assy models. She's primarily does shoots for import cars and bikini/lingerie work. While I love exotic women, I usually don't care for girls with an overabundance of tattoos, but on her they just work for some reason. More on Charmaine later.
The one and only Adrenalynn also making her New Jersey debut. Without question, she was the girl I most looking forward to meeting at the show. She far exceeded my expectations. We talked for half an hour about everything (my sincerest apologies to the people waitng in line behind me.) From porn to her piercings & tattoos (including her infamous "o-ring") to cars & hotrods to her first impressions of New Jersey. She was so excited to be at the show, meeting fans and posing for photos. I must've sanpped nearly two dozen shots of her in one sitting. I tried to get a close up of her name tattoo on her arm but the autofocus on my telephoto lens couldn't focus properly for such an extreme closeup. They came out a little bit blurry. Overall, a gorgeous girl with an amazing smile and a smooth voice with just a slight Texas twang to it. I really, really hope that she is able to get back in to the business and start shooting on more consistent basis. Adrenalynn is just too unique a performer and too cool a chick to be sitting on the sidelines. the industry needs more girls like her.
Justine Joli who looks like a porcelain figurine come to life. She looks like she should be walking a fashion runway in Paris instead of a porn convention in NJ. Orange, not red, orange hair with a ghostly white complexion. On anyone else it would look creepy, yet somehow she pulls it off! She was recently in an off-Broadway play in New York that received great reviews. While she has no plans for any B/G scenes any time soon, she is still shooting G/G with more scenes coming up.
Brandy Talore who has stayed true to her word & kept her dark brown hair, looking lovely as ever at the LA Direct Models booth. Another girl who remembered me after only a single ten minute conversation in Miami six months ago. (With the hundreds of guys that they see at all the shows over the year, I am amazed beyond belief that the girls can remember anyone, but they do.) She hasn't shot a lot of scenes since last I saw her. Mostly she's been travelling and working on her website. Another girl who is quickly becoming one of my favorites to see.

Eve Laurence. Been a fan of her's for a while now. Just my type: tall, brunette, busty & curvy. Though she has lost a lot of weight and was very skinny in person. She's working on her website and fighting off cybersquatters. She said she's planning on starting to shoot for other companies soon, so hopefully we'll be seeing a lot more of her in the near future.
Lexi Belle looking as fantastic as ever at the Fantasy Island booth. I made a confession to Lexi that I don't own a lot of her movies or watched very many of her scenes, as most of them have been the Barely Legal and/or schoolgirl type scenes. Don't get me wrong, I think she's gorgegous, but the ultra-young look just doesn't do lot for me. I admitted that I have been paying lot more attention to her work over the past year. She's 23, been in the business for a few years now, and she's finally maturing out of the teen look & in to a more grown-up appearance. She's starting to look more like a woman and less like a little girl. When I told her this, she actually blushed and averted her eyes away from mine. When she looked back at me, her eyes had a sparkle in them and she said that was one of the sweetest compliments anyone has ever given her. This was only my second time meeting her and she's all ready cemented a place on my must-see list. Edited by - jman5245 on 11/23/2010 10:47:13 PM
Madelyn Marie looking beautiful and elegant as always at Fantasy Island. I didn't get a chance to see her, as she was busy doing alot of interviews promoting her new movies. One of the most beautiful girls working in the industry today.
Jenna Haze aka the Hardest Working Girl in Porn, showing off her ridiculously insane bubble butt. Good lord look at that thing. I honestly think you really could bounce a quarter off her ass. She didn't have any advance copies of her new movie "Legs Up, Hose Down." She wanted to bring some but she literally dropped off the final cut at the printers the day before she left for NJ. She is very excited and proud of this movie, proclaiming it her best JennarationX movie ever. It was released too late to be nominated for the AVN Awards this year, but she did get nominations for "Just Jenna", "Meow!" & "Sexual Blacktivity 2." Jenna is always a pleasure to see & a great girl to talk with.
Lisa Ann, posing by her life-size cardboard counterpart at Fantasy Island. I'd seen her about five weeks prior at a feature dancing gig in Miami (another pornstar feature dancer crossed off my list.) That weekend she went to a night club in South Beach and got to meet LeBron James. Anyone who knows Lisa Ann, knows that she is a HUGE basketball fan and while she's a diehard Laker girl, Lebron James is her favorite player. Knowing this, I brought her a tank-top shirt and wristband with Lebron's name & number on them (she's wearing the wristband in the photo.) Her face lit up like a kid on Christmas when I gave them to her. She gave me a big huge and insisted I take an autographed 8x10 picture. She had also told me in Miami that she was flying to Hungary to shoot some scenes for Evil Angel the week before the show and would be flying directly to New jersey from Hungary for the show. I asked how the trip was and she replied she had a blast and did a lot of sight-seeing. A another awesome girl who loves meeting her fans and takes her time to get to know each & everyone that comes to see her. **** That's all for now. More on Day 1 coming soon and as always any comments or constructive criticism is welcome & appreciated.
^^^ Your welcome and thank you for the feedback. It is greatly appreciated.Thanks for commenting, grover. There's still a few more Day 1 photos to go before we get to 2 & 3.
Dude, you just made me laugh out loud on my Metra train ride home. You owe me. I must ask: What the hell is that guy behind me taking a picture of? My phone doesn't do a very good job blowing up the image, so I can't make out what's on his screen. Also, that picture reminds me I still have a long way to go on my diet plan. Really great pics. You've come a long way in such a short time.
I'm just giving credit where credit is due. I checked the full-res image of the picture and it actually is a photo of Courtney on his screen. The angle makes it look like he's taking a picture of your back but I guess he must've been shooting over your shoulder. I appreciate the compliment. Coming from you, it means a lot.
Day 1 continued: Stoya working the crowds at Fantasy Island. As most people know, she's been in a sort of self-imposed exile from industry since summer 2009. The first question I asked her was where she's been for the last year & a half. She said the reason she's been away is that she was very unhappy with her contract with Digital Playground. She got a lawyer and she been trying to get out of it. Unfortunately, the contract was ironclad and Digital Playground wouldn't budge. Now it has expired and she's free to decide her own fate. I asked if she was going to try to sign with another studio or if she was going try her luck at freelancing. I was stunned beyond belief when she told me that she & her lawyer are currently attempting to negotiate a new contract with Digital Playground. She said she likes the company & people there, she was just unhappy with the terms of her original contract. She would prefer to resign with them then go elsewhere and she confirmed that Digital Playground genuinely wants her back. I wished her luck and told her that whatever happens, I just hoped to see her back in front of the camera soon.
Julia Ann looking amazing at the Legends booth. Another girl I was very excited to meet, as I've been a fan of hers for years. Tall, long legs with curves in all the right places & a very bright smile, not to mention one of the best performers working today. One of the most beautiful women I've ever had the fortune to meet. I refuse to believe that this woman is 41 years-old. She looks better now than she ever has at any point in her career and she's still hotter than most girls half her age. I don't think she ever stopped smiling the whole weekend. She mentioned that she was using all the money she made selling merchandise at the show to fund her animal rescue efforts, which essentially meant she was appearing at the show for free! I contributed my share to the cause by picking up a DVD and photo. Wonderful girl to meet and I sincerely hope she comes to Miami next spring so I can see her again.

L-R: Jasmin St. Claire, Nick Manning, Dyanna Lauren, Francesca Le L-R: Brittany Andrews, Julia Ann, Vanessa Del Rio, Ginger Lynn The Legends posing together for a group photo.
Courtney Cummz copping a feel on an unsuspecting fan at the LA Direct Models booth. As AnimeNut said in his report, meeting Courtney is an interactive experience that is not for the faint of heart. Lo and behold this guy is one of the few fans who was brave enough to give as good as he got. The look on Courtney face was a mixture of surprise & excitedment that she finally found a fan that actually reciprocated her hands on approach.
Tory Lane giving me her trademark greeting at the LA Direct booth. I was very anxious to finally meet her as I've been a fan of hers since her scenes for Naughty America back in 2005. When I mentioned I had flown in that morning from Fort Lauderdale she wasked me what neighborhood I lived in. It turns out she grew up about five miles away from me!! The school she weet to was the crosstown rival of my school. She's only a year younger than me so the odds are very good that we sat in the bleachers across the field from one another at a football game. I knew she was from South Florida from reading her bio, but I never could have imagined that a future world-famous pornstar was living down the road. A gut wrenching case of "If only I knew then what I know now." I have to confess she was a lot more relaxed and laid back then I anticipated. She's so wild & uncontrollalbe onscreen. You'd never know by talking with her that she is one of the dirtiest pornstars on the planet. However, when it was picture time, it was like flipping switch. The sweet girl I was talking to was gone and the Tory Lane we know know & love emerged. Just a terrific girl in all and one of the most fun to photograph.
Andy San Dimas strutting her stuff at the Fantasy Island booth. She's every bit as awesome in person as she is online. She also smiles alot more in person than in her photosets. I congratulated her on all her success with her parody movies this year. I picked up a copy of Jonni Darko's "Best of Head." Out of more than 30 girls in the movie, our girl Andy managed to snag the cover. It was pleasure meeting her and she's great with all her fans.
Phoenix Marie visting her BFF Julia Ann at the Legends booth. Julia was really enjoying that lollicock she is sucking on and put on a quit a display for some of the fans taking photos. A few tables down, Francesca Le was being interviewd by some guy dressed like the Pope. Who he is or why he was dressed like that, I have no idea.
Faye Reagan looking as cute as ever at LA Direct Models. The freckles and her high-pitched, squeaky voice fit her young girl look perfectly. She's in Jenna Haze's new movie "Legs Up, Hose Down" in an all-girl threeway with Jenna and Lexi Belle. Just think... a blond, a brunette, & a redhead all in the same scene. It's the Holy Trinity of porn. I just wish more directors would do a scene like that. I asked her why she changed her name from Valentine to Reagan. She replied there is a Japanese cartoon character namd Fay Valentine. She didn't want children Googling their favorite cartoon and finding a bunch of porn, hence the name change. A very perky and chipper girl who was quick to laugh and nice to talk with.
Ah yes, Faye Faye. Cowboy Bebop is in my Top 3 favorite anime series of all time, and that was how Faye Valentine first came to my attention. Sure, I would've come across her eventually... but seeing that familiar name compelled me to take a closer look. I've since gotten used to the Reagan name, but a tiny part of me will always be disappointed she made the change.
Sarah Vandella(formerly known as Sara Sloane.) Some people may say she has the sterotypical pornstar look with the blond hair & big fake boobs. To me she has that classic All-American girl next door look. A lady in public and a total slut in the bedroom! Her recent announcement that she is leaving Zero Tolerance to go back to freelance is some of the best news I've heard all year. Nothing against ZT, they're a good studio, but variety is the spice of life. I mentioned to her at the show how I thought it was strange she & ZT changed her name since she all ready had an established fan based as Sarah Vandella. Later when she announced she was leaving, she claims she never wanted the name change & that ZT forced her to do it. Seems my intuition was right all along. She was great to meet. She smiled the whole time & was one of the most cheerful girls at the show. She happily signed a few DVD covers for me and told me some funny BTS info about one in particular where the male talent couldn't keep wood. I made sure to thank her for her honesty about her past. A few months ago she posted on Twitter on how she got her start as a stripper in New York. As time went by she began offering "special" services to her customers, which in turn, led her to becoming a call girl. Next she made her way out to Nevada to work as a legal prostitute at a brothel, before finally making the leap in to porn. Most girls would never admit to this, but Sarah is not ashamed of her past. That level of raw honesty is severely lacking in today's society and deserves commendation. I will always support Sarah in any endeavor she chooses to do, porn or otherwise.
Kleio Valentine posing at the Burning Angel booth. As everyone knows, Joanna Angel & Jessie Lee were in a severe car accident on the way to the show and Jessie was critical injured. Joanna skipped the show on Friday to stay with Jessie. The booth was empty when the show started and Kleio arrived later that afternoon. She held down the fort all by herself for a couple hour until the other BA girls got there later that night. I had heard of her but I've never seen any of her work. She was very cheerful (despite the tragic circumstance) and a pleasure to meet. She has her own BA movie called Crushing on Kleio. She is definitely worth checking out.
Misti Dawn Draven Star BellaVendetta The rest of the Burning Angel grew arrived to reinforce Kleio later in the night. None of them knew any details about the accident. Just that Joanna was OK and Jessie was seriously injured. They were all a pleasure to talk to and they put on a happy face for their fans, in spite of the fact that they were clearly concerned about Jessie. Misti has come out of her shell a lot since I saw last year. Much more comfortable around a large group of strangers. Bella & Draven are quite a couple of characters. Just two very cool chicks who seem like they would be a blast to hang out with. I always look forward to seeing the BA grils. They're probably the most fun group at any show.
Isis Taylor taking a photo of Sunny Lane autographing the Filthy Rich Entertainment banner. Isis got a bunch of the girls at the show to sign her banner and she is planning to auction it off. Ethan Hunt can't resist sneaking a peek up Sunny's skirt as she signs the banner. She was the last girl I saw Friday night. It was right at 11pm, when the show closes. There were 2 guys ahead of me and she walked away for a minute to go sign the banner for Isis Taylor. I really wanted to get a picture of her in the Alice costume, so I waited. She came back in a few minutes and saw the guys in front of me. It was past 11pm by now and the music was turned off and security was walking the aisles telling people to leave. Even still, Sunny took her time with them and made sure they got their money's worth. When it was my turn, I greeted her and immediately had her pose for a few shots. I thank her for staying so I could see her and told her I'd come see her again before the weekend was over. I bid her goodnight and quickly made a bee line for the exit.
It's difficult to find new adjective to describe the awesomeness that is Sunny Lane. It's no surprise that she appears at nearly every convention, every year. Her table is never empty and the line is never short. She's always happy to meet her fans and smiles constantly. Her true talent is her ability to connect with her fans. She really enjoys talking with them and she genuinely listens to them. She not only remembered me the second time I ever saw her, she remebered I like the girls to sign their autographs in blue ink instead of black (it's easier to read.) That's what I call attention to detail! Even if your not a fan of Sunny Lane if you see her at a show, you will be by the time your visit with her is over! **** That's all for Day 1. Day 2 & 3 coming soon. Thak you all for reading this thread and all of your comments.
Yeah, thanks for the info and pics. They're great. Wanted to go to the Exxxtacy Show that came into town this summer, but couldn't go! Well, maybe next year...
Janessa Brazil posing at the Sassy Assy booth. Tall (5'8" barefoot), amazing physique and beautiful face. Not to mention intelligent nad very well spoken. If only she did B/G, I think she could as big a name as Asa Akira or Tori Black. She's been shooting a lot of G/G lately. In fact, she & Jesse Jane shot a scene later that night back at the hotel. The bikini wrapped all the way down her leg to her foot. I have no idea how she managed to put it on. An impressive lady who we should be seeing a lot more of in the future.
Phoenix Marie at the Porn Star Calendar booth (she split her time between PSC & Isis Taylor's booth.) I've said a hundred times before and I'll say it a hundred more times: Phoenix is one of, if the not the best girls you can see at a show. She is always thrilled to meet her fans and no other girl poses as much or as long for photos as she does. No one other girl can match her energy and enthusiasm. I truly believe that even if she wasn't booked, if she was in the area of a convention, she'd show up to sign autographs & take pictures; she enjoys it that much. After posing for some photos, we sat down to chat. She's been good, shooting like normal & she was Penthouse Pet of the Month for September, which she is very proud of. She is very excited about filming her "P for Phoenix" movie for Jonni Darkko & Evil Angel. She said it's like a dream come true for her and that they start shooting next year. As we chatted, she was autographing the Penthouse I bought from her there on the spot and a few items I had with me (a picture of me & her from the Miami show & three DVD covers.) A women whom I presume was running the PSC booth came over and started to say something about Phoenix singing multiple items for. Phoenix quickly vouched for me saying she knew me and had seen me before. The lady begrudgingly back away, let us be and I thought nothing of it. I said goodbye to Phoenix and went on my way, but little did I know that incident was foreshadowing more to come.
Prinzzess looking like a runway model at the Hot Movies booth. Tall, blond with legs that go on for miles. The stereo at the booth was blasting full volume, so we couldn't talk very much, but she was very nice and polite.
Francesca Le, who was wearing a dress so tight, it redefined the term form-fitting. She remembered me from Miami and was very appreciative of the thank you I gave her in the "F for Francesca" thread. As we chatted, she told me she had recently returned from a weeklong vacation in Cabo. She's been busy as always, shooting both infront of and behind the camera. She's started feature dancing for the first time and has booked a couple gigs all ready. Her website launched this past summer and she does a webcam show every Sunday (in fact she's probably getting intimate with a dildo as I write this!) She wanted to do a webshow from the hotel but technical issues prevented that. She felt so guilty since she'd missed the previous two weeks due to being on vacation and being on the road at a dancing gig. Francesca really cares about her fans and makes sure she gives them 110% on everything she does. I've found that dedication to their work & to their fans to be a common trait in all the top girls in the industry I've met so far (i.e. Jenna Haze, Jesse Jane, Lisa Ann, Tori Black, Kristina Rose, Alexis Texas etc.) It's rare to go to a show and meet a girl & find out she's even more amazing than you thought she was. Francesca Le is unquestionably one of those girls! Thank you Francesca for everything you do and for being the wonderful woman you are! Edited by - jman5245 on 11/28/2010 9:12:57 PM
She's standing up straight and not even trying, but her booty is so amazing it's still popping out! Good lord look at those legs! Tone, tan, and simply savory. The only way the could look any better is if they were wrapped around my head!!
