VIVID STUDIO INSIDER FOR JUNE 5, 2009

TRISTAN'S EXPERT GUIDE TO ANAL PLEASURE FOR MEN DEBUTS - The newest film from Vivid's Award-winning director Tristan Taormino welcomes viewers to the world of anal pleasure for men. Her latest title from Vivid-Ed is "Tristan Taormino's Expert Guide to Anal Pleasure for Men." It went on sale in stores and online at www.vivid.dvdempire.com starting Wednesday, June 3rd. Taormino busts myths about one of a male's most important but least acknowledged erogenous zones and challenges stereotypes about male sexuality. The film stars Penny Flame, Jandi Lin, Annie Cruz team with Christian, Devin and Nomad. "Men have enjoyed anal pleasure as long men as have enjoyed sex. The new film opens up a whole new area of erotic exploration for many couples," says Taormino, who was proclaimed 'America's Anal Sex Guru' by Penthouse. Her film workshop is packed with tips and techniques for safe and pleasurable anal sex, including guidance on how to choose and use a strap-on; selecting toys such as butt plugs, vibrators, anal beads, dildos and prostate stimulators; and the best positions for prostate stimulation. The film instructs on the basics of anal anatomy, hygiene, lube and ways to safely combine anal pleasure with oral sex and how to reach an anal orgasm. Says Tristan: "Although there has been a growing niche of strap-on films in the past several years, not all men are into strap-on sex. This movie covers many different aspects of anal pleasure, making it a unique resource for couples. Of course, there are still some hot strap-on scenes, so fans won't be disappointed."

VIVID SIGNS WITH AXEL BRAUN PRODUCTIONS -Vivid Entertainment has signed a distribution deal with Axel Braun Productions, headed by award-winning director Axel Braun. The Vivid deal marks the first time in his 20 years in the business that Braun has had an association that provides him with full creative control. Says the producer: "I can't imagine a better company for me to partner with in a distribution deal. I have so much respect for Steven Hirsch and what he has accomplished at Vivid, and I'm absolutely thrilled about this deal." For his part, Steven says: "Axel has had friendships with several members of the Vivid family over the years and we are delighted that this has led to a business relationship. We all admire his creativity, unique cultural perspective and drive." Braun has had two recent hit movie parodies "This Ain't Happy Days XXX" and "This Ain't Star Trek XXX." He plans to launch his new Vivid with parodies of four classic TV series, and the first one in line is "Batman XXX: a Porn Parody" followed by "The Addams Family XXX: a Porn Parody," "Zorro XXX: a Porn Parody," and "The Green Hornet XXX: a Porn Parody."

Meggan Mallone is XCITEMENT COVER GIRL - Vivid Girl Meggan Mallone is the cover girl for the current issue of Xcitement Magazine and the featured topic in a six-page pictorial and interview with editor Cindi Loftus that begins with this arresting paragraph: "She's afraid of the dark, and needs a man in her bed. I'm sure after this article comes out she will have a lot of volunteers! She's a Vivid contract girl, and unlike most of the others; she's brunette and small naturally busted. She masturbates while thinking of girls she hates, and likes Taco Bell. She forgives and forgets easily and is great friends with many girls who she has shared boyfriends with. She also has a funny sarcastic sense of humor. She's one of a kind. She's Meggan Mallone." She jokes around in her interview with Cindi about being friends with Vivid Girl Hanna Hilton, even though they once shared the same boy friend and the fact that so many adult stars come from Houston, perhaps because "they put some kind of horn-dog chemical in the water in Houston." Says Meggan: "I don't know. Maybe there is a breeding farm somewhere there." She notes that she was a top student until midway through high school, "then the water kicked in, and then I let go a little bit and realized I was a pretty outgoing person and when I joined cheerleading I met a group of friends that are still my friends now. I wasn't the popular girl in high school, but I was friends with everyone?.If I saw some loser fall down in the hallway I'd be the first person to go help 'em back up." Meggan said she enjoys being a Vivid Girl because "the whole Vivid crew is like a family. I trust them. Plus you have a lot of say in what you do, unlike some of the other companies, like in who you want to work with. It's really flexible. It's cool." As evidence of her closeness to the Vivid team, Meggan noted that "Nikki (Jayne), Hanna and I are best friends in real life."
