Porn has more award shows and expos then actual quality porn. Porn has one foot out the door and the other foot is on a banana peel. With the fees and files being doled out now I wonder where it will be in 5 years?
Businesswoman of the Year: Shirley Lara
I can honestly say never in my life have I heard of this lady and I’ve been around for 21 years. Not to be rude but if you are going to named the businesswoman of the year, you would think you would be more well known, no? I don’t know. Maybe it’s just me. Honestly though, I can’t for the life of me figure out who she is or what company she even works for. Found no reference to her on xbiz.net or avn.com.
I mean no offense or disrespect, but damn that was the best they could come up with?
Update: I found out she works for chaturbate. I don’t know what she does as she has nothing about her on xbiz.net or avn.com, but whatevs. Apparently whatever it is she does, YNOT loves her for it. 😛
