I was wondering how much do the biggest male performers in the business that have their own little company make a year?

Guys like Lexington Steele, Erik Everhard, Brandon Iron- guys that are the biggest names that have their little company distibuted by a big name.

As far as girls go in gonzo they come and go, but how much do contract girls sign for like a Sydnee Steele at Wicked

hmmmmmm......... if a guy owns his own movies, let's say he gets 10 bucks per DVD/VHS copy sold, i think that's high cuz distributor probably takes more. But anyway let's say a good gonzo title sells 7,000 units, that's 70,000, if he puts out 6 movies a year that's $420,000 ......... I think i'm high on what the director gets even if he has ownership. But I think the top guys probably are making really nice money, specially if they are prolific and put out alot of movies.

L.A. Times did an investigative piece on VIVID and did alot of research on VIVID contract girls. They found out the contracts ranged in value and were quite embarassingly low at the bottom end - think like $40,000, other girls were higher. Tone of the piece was that VIVID Girls contracts sucked. No idea what kind of ancillary money a VIVID Girl would make but I guess for girls that dance being a VIVID Girl does make them alot of money.

Other than the top contract girls who are making 6 figures and more I think the new young girls make alot of money in their first year in the biz cuz they are in demand - easily over $200,000.

Now that so many porn chicks are whorin' there have to be some who are making very big money - whorin' pays better than being a pornstar.
