1:12 pm. Jim South Sr and Jr return from lunch. I'm waiting in the coridor with black talent Chase and Chloe Dior, a 5'6" blonde with D-cup fake tits. She's been in porn four years. She took a year off, had a son and has now returned. She's with her boyfriend Joey Gauge. They work together.

Chloe's main job is doing make-up on mainstream sets.

Duke: "How many people know you were in porn?"

Chloe, 22yo: "My boss knows, because he was affiliated with porn before he went mainstream. When I was pregnant, I went to make-up school. As far as doing people's make-up, I've never had anyone make the connection.

"The make-up is more long term, more legitimate. I won't be able to do [porn] forever."

Duke: "What are your measurements?"

Chloe: "Gosh, I don't know. I've lost so much weight."

Chloe says she loves porn's party scene. "I've never danced. I'm not into that. I find it a lot different being with a bunch of strange men who aren't getting paid vs doing a scene with people who are getting paid. So there's a mutual respect for each other."

From the San Fernando Valley, Chloe was a cheerleader in high school and basketball player.

Two talent coordinators from Video Team set up in Bill Margold's office.

Bill: "The industry is going to have to conform, grow up. It will have to practice common sensership."

Bill turns to the woman from Video Team. "You should listen to what I'm saying because I've been around for over 30 years. I was doing this when we were breaking the law. Now that we are legal, we are going to have to behave. They've lost the ability to create and now all they can do is shock."

The first talent to show up include: Baruska, Ariel Summers, Gabriella Banks, Michelle Montgomery, Mike Mateo, Monica Starr, Paris Waters, Chris O'Connor, Alberto Rey, Sylvio Marta, Holly Wellin, Roxetta, Serena Marcus, Dalano, Monica, Calli Fox, Nikki Lane, Johnny, Chelsea Tzinf.

While living in Pennsylvania, then 18-year old "Serena Marcus" read about Mr. Marcus in AVN. She emailed him. He flew her out to Los Angeles. They worked together. He gave her the name "Serena Marcus."

She got implants through her armpits.

Anita Cannibal chats in Bill Margold's office for a few hours. She's getting a degree in business. She already has one in psychology. She's studying the Supreme Court's decision to allow virtual child porn.

I chat with Alberto Rey, who looks like a body builder. From Belgium, he's lived in Budapest, Hungary for the past seven. He's been in porn for 12.

Alberto found it too cold in Hungary a week ago, so he bought a plane ticket for LA and he plans to stay for a few months. He says Budapest is the porn capitol of Europe. All the girls are available. It is only a question of how much.

John Leslie is the star attraction at the talent call. Inside World Modeling, he casts for a six-day project for Evil Angel.

Trinity James says she's looking for an investor for her boob job.

From San Diego, redhead Gabriella Banks loves interracial. She got into the industry three years ago through friends who set her up with an Internet shoot.

Son of author Paul Theroux, Louis, stops by and interviews people for his new book on American subcultures. He's writing it in LA over the next few months.

I meet Holly Wellin, 18, from Manchester, England who wants to live in America. Holly tells Louis Theroux and I that she loves America's fast food restaurants such as McDonalds, Carls Jr, Burger King.

Holly's cell phone goes off. It is Jim South. He sees us on his security camera. He tells her to tell the two journalists to take it easy on her.

Holly has been nude modeling for two years in England with her parents' consent.

She did one anal scene in England for which she earned 350 pounds. In Los Angeles, she gets $1200.

Holly says her first shoot in LA was a bad one. "I was booked for a DP. Two black guys, Mark and Matt."

Holly chews on the broken-off tab of her soda can.

"I was traumatized by it. It put me off a bit but I carried on anyway."

Two days later, she worked again. "It's like any job. There's good and bad."

Have you been injured in the industry?

"Yeah, I got my butt torn. I think I did it with an enema bottle."

What do you miss about England?

"Fish and chips. English tea."

Layla Rivera walks out. "Who are these two guys?" she asks Holly. "Should I be talking to them?"

"We're journalists," I say. "I spoke to your ex-boyfriend Dick Delaware yesterday."

"Oh no," she says, and walks back into an office and closes the door.

Roxetta is a 5'8 redhead with hair down past her shoulders and pumped up breasts. In porn for two weeks, she's an American with an Australian boyfriend who says he supports her porn work.

Tall blonde Cali Fox (with pierced nipples) got her degree in education and worked as an elementary school teacher for six years before becoming a stripper 30 months ago. Now she's ready to do her first porn film. She lives in Georgia.

Duke: "What prompted you to take the porno plunge?"

Cali: "Because I like a lot of attention. I was getting bored with dancing."

"How are you family and friends going to handle this?"

Calli: "Family doesn't know. Oh well. They don't pay the bills."

Monica Starr, 19, has been in porn for a couple of months. She's only done still shoots. She wanted to become a stripper but her mom said no. Monica should do porn instead. Monica's kindly "uncle" referred her to his friend Jim South.

"She said this was more safe."

Monica has natural D-cup breasts. They hurt her back. She says they're still growing. She only stands 5'1. She was a cheerleader in high school. "Everybody says I'm really photogenic. My uncle asked me if I wanted to be in pictures. He owns a production company. He knew Jim South. He told me to come down here."

What kind of uncle sends his niece to Jim South?

"He'd rather I do this than dance. He was helping my mom out."

Monica lost her virginity at 15. She's done 23 men (never more than one at a time) in her short life. She says most of them were boyfriends. "They would end up breaking up with me and then move on. The others were in between a relationship."

Her current boyfriend is a marine serving in Iraq. Monica says she's glad Bush won.

Monica has never been with a girl but she's always been bicurious. She wants her first girl to be gorgeous.

Starr says she's never done interracial and never wants to.

Monica says she is giving her stage name to her father and brothers so they can avoid coming across her on the the Internet and in the video store.

Paris Waters is adorable. Hispanic, she wears expensive pink shoes. Many people think she's asian. She's from Southern California.

Charlotte Lee, 5'3, has been in porn three months.

I talk to 18 yo blonde Goldie Coxxx, who says: "I went to Hawaii with Roy Garcia. Most of the people who went out with him left. Most of them were on Ecstasy. He's unfair. He's unorganized. He's unprofessional."

Black male performer Chase chimes in: "Every girl who's been with him has horror stories."

At 10:40pm, I get Roy Garcia on the phone. He says: "My trip to Hawaii is over with. I don't want to leave the house until CES.

"Goldie Coxxx left Hawaii because the guy (Billy Lee) that she was f---ing got fired for not getting wood.

"The only horror in Hawaii was this guy never getting wood. Notice how calm I am in dealing with him as he breaks our set when he couldn’t get wood for the hundredth time.

[Roy includes a Quicktime clip of the guy unable to keep wood. Roy speaks to him calmly.]

"Goldie's pimp in LA was insisting that she get back to LA and make more money as an escort.

"I have it all on camera. I said to her, I don't want you to leave. She said, I'm leaving. I said, are you satisfied with the money that I gave you? She said yes."

Roy shot for LFP and Adult.com.

"A girl named Annabel gave four people Ecstasy, according to Goldie. I fired her. I got her on tape admitting that she gave everybody Ecstasy.

[I saw the Quicktime clip of the blonde Annabel admitting she gave several people Ecstasy.

Here's a transcript:

Roy Garcia walks up: "Who supplied everybody with Ecstasy last night?"

Annabel raises her hand.

Roy: "Ok. Do you understand what that means?"

Annabel: "Can I say something? I apologize. We thought we were off today."

Roy: "The only time you are off is when I say, or my assistant says, you will have the day off."]

"I've never heard of Chase.

"When you don't live underground, the higher you climb on the totem pole, the more you become a target. I've paid my dues in this business. I work for big companies.

"I’m shooting pretty vignettes for Hustler for my new series called “Sex on The Beach”. Hustler put out three movies by me so far “Secrets Of A Porn Talent Scout from my site www.povporn.com. I’m also directing for ADULT.com, and doing three new secret sites that are almost done."

I run into Nick East. He's just done a couple of shots of Jack Daniels with Shawn Ricks. Nick says his autobiography is coming out. "I'm waiting to hear back from the editors for their suggestions."

Nick has been talking about this book for ten years. He says they're already talking about selling the movie rights.

Nick left porn in 2001. Now he's returning. "The real world won't accept me. I had a good job. Once they realized what I used to do, people seemed to think that I should have to pay my dues."

East has his hair cut short.

I chat with Jordan Taylor (18 years old and three months) inside World Modeling. We sit on the couch. She says she grew up in foster homes in Southern California.

I would've adopted her and been her kindly "uncle Duke."

She's going to three colleges simultaneously. She's studying massage therapy, sports medicine and business.

Jordan was in a bad car accident last week. Her back aches. She first injured her lower back in a bad surfing accident in 2002.

Duke: "What motivated you to get into this industry?"

Jordan: "Look at it. It's good."

Jordan says her first scene was with that guy over there -- Mac Turner. "He helped me get through."

This girl is so beautiful. Stunning blonde hair and compelling eyes and an 18-year old body. She has natural D-cup breasts. They started in fourth grade. She was a DD but had a reduction earlier this year when she had a lump removed from her breast and "decided to take some of my boobs out while they were in there."

The surgery was free for Jordan thanks to MediCal.

Duke: "Does it hurt your back carrying around that load?"

Jordan: "Yeah."

She worked as a nursing assistant but that hurt her back. All the lifting of patients.

Due to her back problems, she can't do doggie.

Duke: "What's your career goal?"

Jordan: "I have a few of them. Educationwise, I want to combine [massage therapy, sports medicine and business]. I want to open my own salon."

Duke: "Which book has most influenced your life?"

Jordan: "Playboy magazine. Hustler magazine."

Jordan does not do interracial. She says she doesn't watch movies.

Duke: "Do people treat you differently when your hair is blonde?"

Jordan: "Yeah. They think I'm a stupid dumb blonde."

Jordan says her high schools were filled with "beaners."

Duke: "How do you think California should deal with illegal immigrants?"

Jordan: "Throw them out."

Duke: "How many children do you want to have?"

Jordan: "No. Because the [ten tattooed] stars on my waist will turn into shooting stars [from stretch marks]."

Layla and Jordan grab Jim South's ass as he walks by.

Mia Bangg, 19, did double penetration for her first porn scene. "It wasn't that bad." She has natural DD breasts. They sprouted during her senior year in high school. She found it "totally embarrassing" and tried to keep them covered.

She's done 20 movies. She stands 5'7.

She lost her virginity at age 18. Before porn, she slept with eight guys. Since porn, she has no idea of how many she has slept with. She works in other parts of the sex industry in addition to porn. "Extra-curricular activities," she giggles.

I want to dedicate this blog to Jim South's assistant Envy, my reason for being and the source of my biggest scoops.

Rob Spallone talks about running into Israel conman Ariel at the Lamplighter restaurant in Chatsworth.

"He said, 'I have a wife and a daughter.' He sat down in the booth next to a cop. I ordered him a soda. I said, I don't care if there's a cop sitting there. You robbed me. I'm not asking you for your money. I'm asking you for my money.

"He bought me tapes, dollar tapes, to sell to get my money back. He still owes me $1,600. A little dirty Israeli.

Dimitri says about Ariel: "For two-and-a-half years, I did all his camerawork. I gave him outstanding deals. Everybody knows that he was stealing scenes and double-dipping [selling them twice or more]. Finally, it caught up with him. In my case, he decides to screw me for a thousand bucks. He decided he wouldn't use me anymore, so why should he pay me what he owes me? It's been over a year now."

Bill Margold writes Duke: "Donielle Dare. My new "kid" thinks that you are very good looking and that you play being shy very well."
