LAS VEGAS - Adult Video News has announced Belladonna and Jenna Haze as hosts of the 2009 AVN Adult Movie Awards on Saturday, Jan. 10 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center.

The 2009 AVN Awards will mark the 26th year for the leading adult industry awards show. Recognizing outstanding achievement in adult movies, the annual AVN Awards have grown to become a major red-carpet media event tied in with the week-long Adult Entertainment Expo and broadcast around the world. With two of the hottest names in the business hosting the show, the upcoming awards promise to be AVN’s biggest and best yet.

“Both Belladonna and Jenna Haze have shown great command on stage at the AVN Awards, as both presenters and award recipients,” said Paul Fishbein, president of AVN Media Network. “I think they will make great, funny, sexy hosts. They look great on television. Plus, they’re both extremely popular and are both in big movies that could very well be up for AVN Awards, including Pirates II.”

AVN Awards producer Gary Miller is excited to have two major adult stars hosting the show together.

“We’ve had one girl hosting for quite a while, so this year we decided to change it up,” Miller said. “Belladonna and Jenna Haze have always been great, and when we spoke to them about it they were both really excited. I think they’re going to do an excellent job.”

Belladonna and Haze have a natural chemistry. The two girls entered the industry around the same time, worked together on numerous movies, and have become close friends off camera.

“I couldn’t be happier with any other girl,” said Haze. “Belladonna has always been one of my favorite and most respected people in the business. It’s the best combination they could have picked.”

Belladonna made her first AVN Awards stage appearance in 2002, when Elegant Angel’s Buttwoman Iz Bella won Best All-Sex Feature. She went on to receive multiple awards for her performance in The Fashionistas (2003), including Best Supporting Actress, and has since won several trophies as a director for her Evil Angel-distributed movies such as ConnASSeur (2005), Belladonna’s Fucking Girls (2006), and Belladonna – Man Handled 2 (which won her AVN’s Best Director – Non-Feature award in 2008).

“This is something I always wanted to do,” Belladonna said. “When they were getting ready for the 2008 AVN Awards, I had asked about hosting the show, and they said they would keep me in mind. I’m very excited and grateful to have the opportunity. I am not going to let them down – I’m going to pick the best dress you’ll ever see!”

Haze has seven AVN Awards to her credit, including Best New Starlet in 2003, Best Solo Scene for Big Bottomed Sadie (2003), Best Oral Sex Scene for Jenna Haze Darkside (2007), and Best Couples Sex Scene for Evil Anal (2008). Her star vehicle Interactive Sex with Jenna Haze tied with Tera Patrick’s InTERActive as AVN’s Best Interactive release of 2008.

“This is one of the biggest honors you could ever have in our industry,” Haze said. “I’m glad AVN is breaking the mold a little bit this year with two gonzo girls. It’s going to be an awesome show!”

Today during work, one of the IMs my assistant Sarah Doom sent me was this:
Sarah: jazz is here
Me: omg. I’ll be right there.

I didn’t realize that Jazz was here in the United States this week, let alone Los Angeles. It’s no secret that I absolutely adore Jazz. He’s sweet, gorgeous and funny. He’s an amazing performer. And on a business level, he takes a lot of pride in directing and performing, and he makes my job as a publicist as easy as could possibly be. In fact, I tend to gush about Jazz so much that John actually got the tiniest bit jealous a while back because my desktop pic on my laptop was this for quite awhile:

So yes, I jumped out of my chair to go give Jazz a hug. Turns out that Harmony Films, who recently started their own US distribution, brought Jazz to LA to perform in some scenes for them. I’ll have to remember to thank Harmony. I wish them luck with their new business ventures. They’re going to do just fine.

Congratulations are in order for Evil Angel’s Karen Stagliano. Womeninadult.com has named her Woman of the Month! November’s issue of XBIZ World features an article that describes Karen’s role with Evil Angel, and asks her about the many different hats she has worn while working in Adult. Way to go Karen!

I just wanted to take a moment to thank all the people who have supported my work over the years. We’re entering an exciting new time at Evil Angel, and it’s because of my devoted fans that I can make the most of all these changes in the adult industry. All of our directors here have very different styles, but they all have something in their movies that gets me off as a viewer – whether it’s the way they shoot, the casting or the editing – and judging from your responses, I’m not the only one.

I create porn to explore my personal obsessions and fetishes. It makes me happy to know that you share them as well.

Jay Sin is a young director who combines an anarchic passion for girls’ holes (and what can be fit in them!) with a precociously disciplined artist’s eye for color and perspective. The result is an insidiously inviting, candy-colored pornographic world that’s immediately identifiable from the first minute of any given scene.

Drawing you in with his tightly controlled, perfectly executed camera work that flows effortlessly from one flattering, intimate angle to the next, Jay never forgets the cardinal rule: It’s Always About The Girl. Meticulously groomed and outfitted to realize the director’s never-generic personal fetishes, the models are lit & made-up to be larger-than-life sexy but never at the cost of their buoyant personalities or lissome youthfulness

Guys, when they’re present, are not the focus of Sin’s attention — like the oversized butt-plugs, double-headed dildoes, candy canes & lollipops that his girls gleefully deep-throat & make disappear up each other’s pussies & asses, their cocks are mostly props for femme fun and games. Which, considering the gals’ rapaciously hungry holes, does make them the luckiest props ever!
