Hey there,
Does anyone know who this is? Loren is a friend of mine, and he was saying it mmight be his boss? Dan Waddic????
: I am on the promotions side of a nextmedia station in the south suburbs. Originally when I went to school, I wanted to do on-air. I started out at Columbia and found that the bill was way too steep. So, I transferred to Illinois Center and obtained my certificate. I really hate promotions and running the promotions side of things has been very difficult. Lack of pay, long hours, hard weekends and a staff that makes welcome back kotter look well, somewhat normal. Anyway, a close friend of mine has a connection in a whole other industry. Adult films. I met the friend and immedately he praised my "unique look" and that my reddish hair and moma's boy look would really work. I am really torn between these industries. The money for the film is quite attractive. It would be $15,000 upfront plus ability to travel and promote the film I am in. Last year the lovely next media paid me $17,500 for the whole year as promotions coord. At first I agreed to be in the film as long as my image was not portrayed. The idea I had was to put a sack over me and cover my face while the deed was done. Because of the nature of the film, I was told that the reason I was being hired was due to my reddish mane(in their words.) I need to make a decision by the end of May due to the scheduling of filming. I would prob due it for the $15,000 and leave it at that, but I am concerned for my long-term image. Would this adult film cause my bosses to let me go? The way it was described to me, only a real close friend or family member would know it was me up on the screen. I am not gay but this is where the money is at in the adult screen world. I remember a few years back a CLTV Weatherman left tv for gay porn.WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?
