“LA Direct Models”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

LA Direct Models is a talent agency for pornographic performers that was formed in 2000 by pornographic actor Derek Hay. ^[1] Initially based in London, the agency booked adult film work in the United States for British females. The following year, once demand had grown, Hay and his porn actress then-girlfriend Hannah Harper moved the agency's headquarters to a one-bedroom apartment in Los Angeles, California.^[1]^[2] Their offices have since moved to the Cahuenga Pass, Hollywood, in the same building as the offices of the adult film producer Vivid Entertainment.^[3] In the fall of 2014, the agency opened a new office in Las Vegas, Nevada,^[4] and departed the Vivid building.

LA Direct Models represents around 130 female and 30 male performers,^[5] including Tori Black, Kagney Linn Karter, Alexis Texas and Lexi Belle.^[1]^[6] Havana Ginger became the agency's first contract performer in 2005,^[7] and in 2008 Kimber James became their first transsexual performer.^[8] In 2008, LA Direct Models, Lisa Ann Talent Management and The Lee Network formed a network to handle bookings for feature dancers.^[9] LA Direct Models now also represents production professionals such as directors and makeup artists.^[1]

In 2008, the agency launched an adult entertainment news website, L.A. Direct News.^[10]
