Question
my wife wants a job in porn. butdoesnt know how to get started.

Answer
Howdy Ron,

Thanks for your message. You have certainly come to the right person for this question!

Your wife should apply online to become a pornstar at http://www.LicensedModels.com

She must complete the application herself (you cannot do it for her, although you can "watch" her do it). Before completing the application, she should make sure that she'll be able to send basic photos immediately after submitting the app, and also that she can meet all of our basic requirements (for example, she must be able to be in Los Angeles within 10 calendar days of applying, she must be over 18 years old, she must weigh under 170 lb., etc.) All of the basic requirements are clearly stated directly on the application webpage itself.

LicensedModels.com is the top talent management group for new models just starting out in the adult film business, and also the ONLY true crossover (major porn + major mainstream) talent management Company that exists. Our models get booked by all the major porn studios, and by mainstream studios as well. Our client Bella Honey was just featured on the June 2011 cover of Penthouse Variations magazine!

Thanks for being an open-minded guy! Let's get your wife out to L.A. to become the next big thing in the porn biz!

Hakuna Matata,

Experience

Mike began his career in the entertainment industry as a talent rep for a large, well-respected talent management Company for S.A.G. actors and fashion models. The Company has been in business for nearly 20 yrs.

In 2006, since the Company is based in the porn capital of the world (the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles), Mike suggested to the President of the Company that they open a division for adult film models. The President accepted, and Mike was put in charge of leading the new division. For the first few months, he went to work for a couple different porn producers to “learn the ropes” of the adult industry. In early 2007, the Company’s adult industry division (LicensedModels.com) opened its doors. Mike was named Senior Vice President.

Since that time, LicensedModels.com’s reputation and connections have grown immensely. LicensedModels.com is now considered to be the top talent management Company for new models in the North American porn industry, and the only adult talent management company capable of promoting its clients for “Crossover Modeling” (promoting its clients for mainstream acting, modeling, dance, and book authoring, in addition to promoting them for porn.)

Since 2007, Mike the Talent Manager has developed personal relationships with the presidents, casting directors, talent coordinators, production directors and “shot callers” of almost every legitimate producer of pornography in the United States. He also has relationships with talent agencies and industry-standard talent STD testing services within the adult film business. LicensedModels.com boasts the ability to introduce a brand-new model to the entire legitimate North American porn industry at the snap of Mike’s fingers, so to speak. Mike has also performed on camera in several porn films for various well-known production companies, and he has also begun his own production line as well.
