...Vivid Compilation or something along the lines of a My Plaything: Lanny Barbie?
I started collecting some of her vids both from Vivid and earlier but frankly at this point am tiring of doing so. Anybody know if or when a comp may come out?
Also an interactive Lanny disc would be amazing and I'm surprised we haven't heard anything about that yet as she is among the most popular stars right now.
Any info from fans or insiders would be much appreciated. Thanks guys and gals.

She was popular 2 or so years ago when she was on the cover of every Third Degree title for like a month straight. After the Vivid contract she disappeared. I'm not even sure she's making movies anymore.

My guess is she's making mad $$$$ as a feature stripper right now. She and Kimberly both.

I'm with you on wanting more comps of Lanny's scenes. Her active days seem to be over or in low-gear, with just some personal appearances and photo shoots. A personal relationship may be part of the reason for her slowdown.
Also Lanny appears to be one of the numerous Vivid Girls who were under contract in the mid-2000s (including Mercedez, Tawny, Briana, and Lexie) who left Vivid at least in part in response to the decision by the studio to go condom "optional" and "encourage" their contract girls to do anal, IR, and hard/gonzo like b/g/b scenes. While Vivid doesn't talk about the policy change as the reason for their biggest exodus in company history, but both Mercedez and Lexie have been quoted as stating the policy change was one reason they left.
But don't worry: Vivid is nortorious for keeping scenes of their contract girls on the shelf for years, and issuing comps of the same scenes over and over again under different titles ("The Royals" "Vivid Girl..." etc.). So, the odds are we'll see some comps of Lanny.

Really? That totally sucks ball...but obviously not mine! I was under the impression that she was still with Vivid despite the marriage? to Julian. Interesting indeed.
I must say that I must be getting old (26) because most of my faves such as Lanny, Brit Skye etc. are slowing down. At least Sophia Rossi got away from Club Jenna so hopefully somebody picks her up and gives her the output she deserves.

The turnover rate of porn girls has always been very high, and because of the current major downturn in profits in the biz girls seem to be leaving even quicker.
For many veteran girls, now is as good a time as any to just get out. Ex-Vivid Girls Lanny, Tawny, Lexie and Briana Banks all seem to have opted out of the biz, to name just a few. Thirtysomethings Jenna Jameson and Savanna Samson seem to be transitioning out of the biz. Returning to porn after a year or two off had been a pretty common practice (Sunrise Adams came back in January), but that was because there were few other options for girls once they did porn. Not true today.
Today's porn girls, IMO, are figuring out that making hardcore videos for the traditional porn companies is just one of the many ways to make money in the sex biz. Dancing, personal webpages, internet photo shoots, and hosting nightclub events/parties all can earn a porn performer with some name recognition just as much as performing hardcore sex on video. And without the downside of losing boyfriends and family or suffering the health risks of condom-free video porn.
Like it or not, it's called progress.
