Shy Love?s Agency and L.A.T.A.T.A.

[Darrah]

Someone sent this in to me:


LATATA is trying to convince everybody in the industry that they are looking out for the best interest of the performers. They have even gone so far as to hold a fundraiser and gave half the money to AIM. They have even made public statements showing support for AIM, and in return AIM has placed signs inside their facilities that read ?Is your agent licensed?

But all the public statements don?t jive with their actions. Their support for AIM is a front for the future union plans. They plan on making a talent union, and the union is going to attempt to ?take over? AIM, and replace the Board of Directors with their own hand picked people. All of this in the name of protecting performers health, and making the industry more ?legitimate.?

Which leads us to the Shy Love Agency and why they quit the LATATA organization. A few months ago Shy herself was booked for a scene with a male performer from LA Direct. Shy, being concerned for her own health, asked that the male performer get a more current test. The male performers test was still within the 30 day ?industry standard? but Shy wanted a more recent test. Not an unreasonable request, as many performers, like Belladonna for example, routinely demand a more current test. One would think that an agency that so publicly states their support for talent health care would have no problem honoring this simple request. But this is LA Direct, and Derek Hay we are talking about here. The request was denied. Shy knew then that all the talk about supporting the talent, and doing what is right for the performers was a bunch of hot air. And despite the heavy handed attempts to ?change? her mind, Shy had the guts to stick to her personal standards and not be bullied into accepting a situation that she felt put her personal health at risk. And despite all the public proclamations from Derek and LA Direct, it is obvious that the health of performers is of no concern to them.

Everything LATATA is attempting to do is to get more money from the performers. The union will include ?union dues?, payable to the union Board of Directors (Derek, Joel etc.) AIM is still in denial about the long term plans of LATATA to take them over, but I believe Mitch will come to her senses soon enough, and see what Brooke and Derek have been up to. The fact that neither Mitch, Nina, or Ira ever spend any time at AIM is what LATATA is counting on to achieve their goals. They are going to use this in their upcoming public campaign to over throw the AIM board of directors.

Shy Love saw through this baloney months ago. And when this shit hits the fan I can assure you Shy will be saying ?I told you so.?

Unions only care about themselves and making sure the money keeps flowing in. This is not news. At one time unions were useful, even noble I might say... but today, they are no different than the companies/governments they proclaim to protect you against, in most cases, they are worse and only add insult to injury, but charging you for the privilege to get fucked.

[Grapesoda]

latata basically exist to protect the agencies from each other $.02

[JP-pornshooter]

i am pretty sure the main agencies are conspiring something, not sure what it is yet, but i have a solid understanding of who is involved.
and it goes way beyond "agent business", mark my words, there is an evil empire in the works..

Pornstar union ... a true oxymoron, huh. It would be easier to get group medical insurance rather than start a union.

The funny part is that if said "union" comes into being the talent will not even know, or probably even care, as most are blind to the fact that the agents are in fact employed by them.

Union already failed in its 1st test when Type 9 tried to ban Donny Long from using any of the so called union girls due to posting and bragging that he books all girls withouut going thru agencies and NO ONE DID A GOD DM THING. You really think Derek will put his buisness at risk for a problem Joel may have.. Kevin may have.. I think not.
