I had heard from multiple sources that the supposed amicable split between Digital Playground and Teagan Presley was mostly PR spin. Teagan was overheard saying at the AEE show in Las Vegas that Digital Playground were attempting to prevent her from working for other companies through some form of non-compete clause.
I also heard she retained the same lawyer that helped Tera Patrick get out of her contract with Digital.
Teagan posts the following on ADT:
My lawyers don’t seem to be getting things done (as of right now), which makes me very sad, because I was putting some faith into them, but for some reason it’s taking it’s sweet time…of course at my expense in every which way. I’m being put in between a rock & a hard place. Between the lawyers & ongoing situation it is neverending with the drama. It doesn’t seem like it’s coming to a point which is looking like it’s going to force me to QUIT.
I feel bad for all of the fans because I’ve tried my hardest to play by the rules of life, business, legal systems, etc., so that I would be able to continue to fuck on camera for all you perverts out there to enjoy!! (Especially, because I want to direct & put my own spin on things. If I had failed , then at least I would have tried. It seems as of now it’s looking like I won’t be able to. This is NOT by MY choice, all I want to do is be free of this nonsense situation. If anything happens in the near future that changes this situation, all of my fans will be the first to know. (In a perfect world, I dare to dream of simplicity)
As of right now, it’s drained me mentally & physically to such an extreme extent. Everyone talks about my weight, & I’ve bitten my lip for so long trying to make nice with everyone. But come on, STRESS that people are putting me & my family through under such circumstances are taking a toll on me. I can’t let me or my family suffer. They are the most important things & it’s starting to affect them.
I won’t be answering any questions as of right now from the fans due to the circumstances of my post because I know it will only open "Pandor’s Box". If I have any news you can always check on my blog on my site (which is probably in limbo as well, knowing my luck these past 2 years)
Honestly Teagan, do you really like doing porn?
On one side you are busy and popular in ADT and XTP working your fans and bitch slapping any whore that is dumb enough to mess with your career (Lela Star for example).
On the other side, you spent most of your DP contract pregnant and there are rumors about your substance abuse and probably psychosomatic illnesses.
Is like you has two personas, the porn star and the young southern womman that wishes a regular civilian life.
You should make up your mind T.
I would check the turn of the tide, oddly there is way more ass kisssing going on at xpt than adt. She looks like the only thing she is passionate about any more is meth. Her husband said the problems started because she wanted to direct and digital wouldn’t let her.
As far as I know, non-competes aren’t valid in California … basically the former co can’t stop you from making a living in your field. Again, not an atty but that’s my understanding.
Tera had the benefit of a major company employing the lawyer to get her out of her contract and the expenses were reportedly well into six figures so I hope that’s not the case here, despite the rumors.
Good Riddens to bad trash. This whore hated doing movies. She liked a contract because it promised guaranteed money. Who in their right mind does not want guaranteed money? If she really liked porn and was a good performer then you would go and start appearing 100s of porn websites. Most likely you will tell us some bullshit like you only want to do features which is simply code for “i hate porn, i want to do the least work possible for the most money”.
Like most worthless whores I can only recommend that you not let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.
p.s. Do you really think that we believe you are “paying” the lawyer in cash? We all know you agreed to do a trade deal and nothing is getting done until you start giving up the pussy but like with porn movies it takes a crowbar to get you to spread your damn knees.
You are an incredible success just like Tera Patricks modeling agency http://www.terapatrickagency.com
Teagan made Digital Playground a lot of money by bringing her gonzo fans to DP movies who would never have bought their crappy movies otherwise. Considering how much money she made them, they should’ve just let her go.
Specially when Digital Playground isn’t even interested in shooting the kind of porn she likes, anymore. They’re focusing to much on “Alt” porn with all these new girls in their ranks. Teagan is not “alt”, she knows she’s great at what she does and there is a huge fanbase which loves her for it.
It’s a smart business decision to get out of it before it effects her reputation. It’s a classic case of a Company changing their business plans, but expecting everyone directly effected by it to just be ok with it.
People talking about drugs, well if you know of any porn girls who haven’t done drugs then you’re stupid! Even the girls running around claiming they’ve never done drugs, have.
So what, even if she did do some drugs at some point in her life. This is about the contract, and her desire to direct and create her own product and Digital Playground trying to profit from it.
Do some research before putting ill informed posts up for people to read.
She did take it up the pooper like a champ, though, BDD. You gotta give her some credit for that.
She sure learned good, I’ve heard of Pandora’s Box but not a Pandor’s Box. Anyway, most Contract girls movies suck, or more correctly are made by retards like PT, Armstrong, and such. Anyway, she’ll be back, maybe we can start a new line: “Rehab Whores”.
So she’s a whore for wanting to be paid what she should be paid? The performers are paid pennies while the studio heads make millions. Then all you bitches complain if these girls aren’t doing gangbangs and facials and dps. Go tell your daughters to do what those girls do and to shut the fuck up and not complain when not being paid.
I saw Teagan at AVN while I was bleaching my teeth, she was next to me (they were bleeching teeth inside the AVN for 50 bucks – 15 minutes), I overheard she said this was her first time bleeching her teeth. Well, I never knew she was Tegan until I talked to one her crew members. She looked so thin and older. I thought she retired until I saw her at AVN and just read the news on her myspace and more about her drama at DP.
