Erotica LA 2007 Draw Thousands of Fans
LOS ANGELES - Adult
News Flash.com joined thousands of fans who came out over
the weekend to the 11th Erotica LA convention. Organizers reported
that attendance during the three-day consumer expo approached an
estimate of 50,000.and Adult News Flash.com was there all three
days. Day
one was mellow, but had a steady stream of fans of the adult industry.
We caught up with new contract girl, Paulina James at the SexZ pictures
booth and she joined us over at the I Love Vagina booth where we
met up with owner Drew and musical artist Slavedriver 13 who brought
his custom chopper to the show. Even as the show drew to a close, the lines to meet XXX stars remained endless. Naughty America's booth was among the most mobbed spots on the show floor, with a killer porn-star lineup including Gia Paloma, Ava Devine, Sasha Grey and Roxy DeVille. Rumor has it that crowd-pleaser Devine tore one male fan's underwear off his body - without removing his pants. The feeling was mutual, as Gia Paloma announced during the show that she's returned from a four-month hiatus to shoot exclusively for Naughty America. "Naughty America is the only company in the business that's doing anything right," Paloma said, lounging on a bedroom set designed to promote the company's new DVD Naughty Flipside. "It's all gold." For Nautica Thorn, this year's ELA was a landmark as she exhibited for the first time with her company Nautica Thorn Productions. The exotic Asian beauty signed alongside fan favorite Eva Angelina.

New Sensations contract girl Ashlynn Brooke made her Erotica LA debut this weekend, highlighted by her role as a trophy girl at the FAME awards and a guest shot on Playboy Radio's 'Night Calls' with Ginger Lynn and Christy Canyon. "It's amazing – I didn't expect this at all," said Brooke, who began her fast-rising porn career just nine months ago. "A lot of people were coming up to me saying that they came to the show just to see me. It's great to be appreciated."Rockman Entertainment owner Brett Rockman promoted his upcoming national promo tour with a massive RV. Starlets Kayla Marie, Michelle Avanti, Trisha Rey and Kylee King signed for the company. "It's gone very well for us," said Rockman. "We had a good spot, and we had big crowds here especially on Saturday - we had a live show with Virus. We also got a lot of military people coming over because of our Porn for the Troops campaign - we give each of them a free DVD, no questions asked. There were a lot of Marines here; they kept coming over in little groups." HotMovies.com did some aggressive branding at this year's show. In addition to their exhibit booth in the X-Zone, the company hung two 16-by-40-foot banners on the outside of the Convention Center that were visible as cars drove by on the adjacent Interstate 10 freeway where it meets the 110. They also supplied promotional window and door clings in the lobby and gave away free 30-minute pay-per-view cards inside the Erotica LA show guide. Day 2 Video Clips
Offset Entertainment debuted its new Sean Michaels: Porn Icon DVD at the expo. Super-smooth Sean Michaels and righteous soul-brother Mr. Marcus made the Offset booth a prime spot for the ladies. On the opposite end of the floor, Vivid Girl Savanna Samson packed the Seminars room for her educational seminar on threesomes 101, the first of its kind to be led by a major adult star. Drawing on her experience as a sex advice columnist for Adult Friend Finder, Samson guided couples through a lengthy Q&A session sponsored by The Pleasure Chest. Tera Patrick and Evan Seinfeld of Teravision had a triumphant year at Erotica LA, with the debut of Mistress Couture, droves of reporters and fans, and Tera's big FAME awards victory.
