News wires buzzed this week with speculation about the potential casting of actress Scarlett Johansson in a Hollywood movie adaptation of Jenna Jameson‘s autobiography, How to Make Love Like A Porn Star.

“It looks like we’re going to be selling [the book] to a big movie company and [going] into production next year,” Jameson told FHM magazine. “We’re looking, hopefully, at Scarlett Johansson. She’s my choice. I think she’s beautiful.”

Jameson’s publicist Scott Hoover confirmed that the adult starlet is in unofficial talks with more than one Hollywood studio about the proposed bio-pic. While Johansson has stated that she would consider doing nudity for the right role, the mainstream actress has made no comment on the Jenna movie rumors.

With nearly 20 years of experience manufacturing handmade bondage gear, Stockroom.com has announced the debut of KinkLab, a brand-new, original collection of bondage essentials. The KinkLab line promises high-quality, kink-related gear that is artfully packaged and value priced.

The company displayed its full line of product at this year’s Adult Entertainment Expo, with a little help from adult starlet Justine Joli, who modeled the merchandise exclusively during the show. Director of Operations Heather B had much praise for Joli’s participation in the show. “It went great,” she told . “Justine was fabulous. She was signing posters and having a good time with the customers.”

The line includes everything from cuffs, leashes, gags, whips, and paddles, to medical devices and a line catering to men.

“We wanted to create a smart, sexy, easy-to-use line that would attract the curious but still satisfy hardcore BDSM players,” said Stockroom.com Marketing Director, Juli Crockett. “A lot of people might be interested in bringing a little leather to their sex life, but it can be cost-prohibitive, and some of the gear looks really intimidating. KinkLab breaks both those barriers with its design and super-seductive price point. In an ideal world, KinkLab will help would-be adventurers to take the leap into a new world of erotic play.”

Adult starlet and ex-California gubernatorial candidate Mary Carey has signed a six-picture deal with K-Beech Video, Inc. The titles will be directed by Cash Markman and released through the company’s BACKEND Productions label.

As part of the newly-inked non-exclusive agreement, Carey will be signing for K-Beech during the Adult Entertainment Expo. Carey will appear at the K-Beech booth (#5013) on Friday afternoon from 12-4 and on Saturday from 1-5 pm.

“Things happened very quickly,” K-Beech CEO Kevin Beechum said of the deal. “Mary’s very popular across the board, the fans love her, she’s one of the biggest acts on the feature dance circuit and she’s crossed over into mainstream like no one before her.”

“I’m going to be starting my own company, Mary Carey Productions,” the 26-year-old starlet told. “While this deal is going on, I’ll be shooting only for K-Beech and my own company. This is going to be the year of Mary Carey the businesswoman, not Mary Carey the party girl.”

Carey, who parted ways with Legend Video in December, has been making news headlines of late due to a trademark dispute with pop diva Mariah Carey. “It’s time for me to capitalize on the Mary Carey name,” she said. “I’ve been getting a lot of mainstream coverage lately; I’m going to be on Howard Stern on January 31. The first K-Beech title is shooting really soon – this will be the first movie I’ve done with four boy-girl scenes.”

Carey also revealed that she is planning a hip-hop album for 2007. “I can’t name any names, but I’ve got some very influential people in the hip-hop world helping me out,” she said. “I’m hoping to start recording in about a month.”

In the meantime, Carey is preparing for AEE with a “detox diet” of water and cayenne pepper. “I’ve got an investor who’s hired a security guard for me in Vegas,” she added. “I’m going to be on time for everything, not drinking as much. I’m meeting with a lot of different distributors to see who gives me the best deal for Mary Carey Productions.”

Adult studio Elegant Angel has recruited Mike Barbella as its new marketing and promotions manager. Barbella’s 15 years of industry experience includes stints at Metro and Jill Kelly Productions.

“I am honored to be given this opportunity to work with Elegant Angel,” said Barbella of his new position. “The dynamics at this company are of the highest level of excellence. It’s the best I have ever observed in all my years in the industry. Patrick Collins has assembled a staff of amazingly talented people. They are not only expertly skilled at the position they hold, but also completely work together as a team. That said, Elegant Angel could be considered the ‘sleeper ‘ company of the 2000′s.

“During recent years, the brand name has grown prominently,” Barbella continued, “and the fan base has expanded. But, the task at hand is to create greater access to the distributors, the retailers and, ultimately, the consumer. I want the Elegant Angel brand name to become the apple pie of the industry. We are a company committed to excellence and will not falter.

“We will be unveiling some of the most innovative point of purchase materials at the 2007 Adult Entertainment Expo,” Barbella continued. “We cordially invite all in attendance to the Elegant Angel booth, number 2061. Whatever medium used to distribute our product; internet sales, rentals and downloads, wholesale or retail, we have a promotion tailored to the customer. We want to work together to great immediate increases in revenue for all involved.”

Elegant Angel’s January releases include Big Wet Asses 10, Big Black Wet Asses 6, All By Myself, and Sperm Swappers 3. The company’s AEE signing lineup includes Flower Tucci, Jada Fire, Katja Kassin and Sierra Sinn.

Director Rod Vicious has signed an exclusive one-year contract with Doghouse Digital/Mile High Media, Inc.

“We were looking to increase our Canadian production again and Rod has always been our guy up here,” said Doghouse owner Jon Blitt. “He’s someone who truly loves what he does, and it shows in all of his work. His directing skills have already garnered him AVN award nominations and accolades, so we are ecstatic to have him on our team.”

With 25 years of experience as an avant-garde photographer, Vicious has worked on a vast array of projects from fetish fashion to gothic-industrial music videos. He has photographed such mainstream stars as Celine Dion, Nicolas Cage, Antonio Banderas, Danny DeVito and Susan Sarandon. Vicious’ adult-industry credits include Doghouse’s Fetish Dolls and Elegant Angel’s Fetish Finishing School .

“After being in the adult business for almost three years, I realized the best place to be for me as a director was with Doghouse,” Vicious said. “We understand each other and work as a team, so that’s why I decided to sign an exclusively. They trust my concepts and artistic view.”

In the coming year, Doghouse Digital plans to focus on more specific niches in the adult market with a new “big-dick” series called How’s that Big Cock Gonna Fit in My Ass? and an as-yet untitled oral line. The company will also continue with established lines Sugar Mommies, Her First Milf, Black Bros, Young Squirts, Natural Born Tits, Girly Gang Bang, Lesbo 101 and the aforementioned Fetish Dolls.

“American Hardcore has set an incredible pace with our product,” Blitt said. “We couldn’t be happier with everyone’s response, and as a result, our sales and distribution.”

Director Pierre Woodman has signed 20-year-old Czech performer Divinity Love as an exclusive contract girl for his company Woodman Entertainment.

Love previously worked for Woodman in Private Video’s best-selling Sex City. Her signing follows the announcement of Playboy Playmate Caylian Curtis as the first Woodman starlet; both performers are featured in the company’s forthcoming epic XCalibur.

“After signing Caylian as our first Woodman Girl, I knew she would be a very hard act to follow,” Woodman said. “But after seeing how Divinity moves in front of the camera, I knew that she had what it takes to be a star and decided to offer her an exclusive contract. It is a great pleasure for me to welcome her to Woodman Entertainment.”

When 14-year-old Kolton Mahoney sat down to play with his new copy of X Box 360’s Madden NFL ’07 video game, he was greeted by the sight of hardcore porn.

Mahoney said as soon as he saw the image, he turned off his Xbox 360 and called his parents, Linda and Tim, who, according to the report, were “equally astonished” when they saw the hardcore image on their TV.

Mahoney’s uncle purchased the game at a Circuit City store in Modesto, California as a Christmas gift.

The copy of the game was embossed with a Madden NFL 07 label and came in the factory-sealed Xbox 360 case.

According to the story, the Mahoneys have contacted game designer Electronic Arts and the Circuit City store where the game was bought. The family is not looking for a financial settlement; they are seeking a new copy of the game and a guarantee “that no other copies containing porn have been sold.”
