Once Again, No Surprises Here

[So there's this guy I know, and he knows everything that happens behind the scenes in porn, and he says that if this tape ever gets released, and if it shows Kendra having sex, it will be because she approved its release and signed contracts allowing it. If she wants to kill the tape, she can. If she doesn't, she won't.

This is because of a law called 2257, which is essentially a bookkeeping law. Every performer in a sex tape or porn must certify that they are the ones in the scene and that they were at least 18 years old at the time. Vivid could never release a tape if they couldn't document who the performers were and that they were legal age. This would be especially relevant to Kendra because she would have been around 18 when the tape was made. Porn is fanatically obsessed over two things: 1. paperwork 2. taking all my money.

If someone does not certify all that, their image will be blurred, like the image of Brandy Ledford, the second girl in the sex tape starring Vince Neil and (Jesse James' first wife) Janine Lindemulder. Brandy didn't sign so her face was blurred out.

It's not clear if Kendra has signed yet but Vivid's press release is a pretty good indication that she did or will soon.

The guy I know says it would be amazing if the tape was released as planned at the end of May, because Vivid will want this to play out as long as possible, with pretend negotiating and fake crying going back and forth in the media.]

Ah, it's the old calculated scandal route - again. The E! channel must be grateful their stars are game for all these sex tapes - even Chelsea Handler is allegedly in the mix! I'm down with wherever the Handler wants to go - literally and figuratively. As for Wilkinson, wipe away those crocodile tears and put your palm out for that big check.
