Adult performer Larin Lane writes in with the following:
I am Larin Lane a performer in the business. Shy Love at Adult Talent Managers has been managing me since July of 2007. I had a brief period (1 week) were Shy and I were at a disagreement and went over to Generation XXX Models. I then realized that it was a mistake and decided to part ways from Debella and Mike Boom because they were extremely volatile. Since then they have been contacting directors and producers and telling them not to hire me. I am continuously receiving threatening calls and emails from them. I am writing this to tell everyone that what they are stating is not factual and they do not represent me. This email is to inform talent to be weary when dealing with then. GenerationXXXmodels.com has not provided one job they did offer me two jobs BG for $400 (each) which are not even close to industry standards and now they are attempting to sue me for what I have no idea.
To all directors I am available for work thru www.adulttalentmanagers.com
Regards
Larin Lane
GenerationXXXModels is operated by Jewel De’Nyle’s mother De’bella (aka Debbie Schwarz). Debbie, along with Jewel’s father Larry, initially worked at RedLight District/Platnium X. I had heard that De’bella had a business partner to get the agency off the ground. That partner must be Mike Boom that Larin Lane mentions in her email.
Larin goes on to post an email between her and De’bella:
Re: shoot Saturday, January 26, 2008 4:46:36 PM To:LaRin Lane
La’Rin;I don’t know if this is you or KJ writing this email. I need a personal phone call from you (La’Rin) stating that you have turned down this shoot per our legal adviser. If you think this negative behavior is going to get you out of your contract you are wrong. Your actions are not going to look favoranble in front of the court. We have put together all of your (La’Rin) and KJ’s e-mails, txt, voicemails and exclusive contracts for our attorney to review.
Here is Larin’s response to De’Bella:
De’Bella
Debella the rate on this scene is too low anyway, I’ve done blow job scenes for that much. You are low balling the hell out of me and expect me to live on 600 dollars minus your 10% fee, it aint happening and you know it (I cant live on that, who could?). 600 in almost a month and a half or more, that is some nerve to hold me in this contract, your wrong and you know it. I thought you said this was a Wicked shoot, doesnt look like it to me. See what we mean about all the wrong information and promises that you guys are feeding to us.
De’Bella responds to Larin Lane with the following:
I am a firm believer in freedom of speech and welcome the opportunity to respond. One thing about freedom of speech it that is an awesome responsibility you take on when you try to say knowingly untruthful things with the intent to discredit, libel and slander persons in media print.
People in the Industry that really know me, know I never lie or misrepresent anything. Furthermore, I would never take advantage of anyone for any reason. It’s against my basic make up. But what I have learned is to keep all e-mails, text messages and transfer voice mails to tape. So any rebuttal I make here to Larin Lane’s comments has a factual basis for it, I have documentation to support it and people to testify to it.
I am the License Holder of Generation XXX Productions. I am a State of California Department of Labor Standards Enforcement Licensed Talent Agency and my license number is 48985.
If “Shy Love” and “Adult Talent Managers” has been managing Larin Lane since July 2007 she is doing so in violation of California State law. If anyone checks with the DLSE Licensing Board they will find Shy Love does not have a current operating license in the name Shy Love, Adult Talent Managers or in the name Sheelah Blumberg. You will also find “There was not even a license application on file for any of those names”.
According to the State of California statue none of the contracts signed by Ms Love or representatives of her unlicensed talent agency has any legal standing and are non-enforceable.
Ms Lane approached me to sign with the Agency on 12/22/08. She was given a State of California Approved Exclusive Contract. My contracts are conformed to the state requirements and my master contracts have the state seal and approval stamp. Which are fully enforceable and required for use by licensed talent agencies. So according to the State of California statue we are the only ones authorized to represent Ms Lane currently and collect booking fees.
On one occasion Ms Lane requested me to call my ex-husband Larry Schwarz of Red Light Distribution to make sure that Shy Love was denied access to her most recent check and that the check for her most recent work was sent to Larin’s home and not Shy’s. This is not behavior of an individual that is being threaten or not voluntarily requesting her Agent for assistance.
Ms Lane joined the agency at a time during the Christmas Holiday when many of the studios were winding down and getting ready for AVN. Ms Lane and her boy friend KJ had no way to AVN, so I purchased his ticket for entry and had one of our sponsors pay for hers. She agreed to work for 2 hrs at the convention at the sponsor booth. Because of all of her personal problems she had once she got to Las Vegas, she never finished her commitment to the company that purchased her pass. She was never asked to reimburse the sponsor for her breech of the agreement.
After reading Ms Lane’s comments posted here in the article, I have received calls from two other persons that were at AVN and overheard Ms Lane saying “Shy was going to black list her if she left the Shy’s agency.” So I am confused or Ms Lane memory is impaired????
Until we returned from AVN there were no problems. Once back from AVN Shy Love went on a campaign to get Ms Lane back to her unlicensed agency making Ms Lane promises of work. This was according to statement Lain made to several people including directly to me. Ms Lane stated directly to me and one other person affiliated with Generation XXX Productions that Shy had told her “that she (Shy), had told various studios that She (Ms Lane) was on vacation and was coming back to her (Shy)”. This created a problem to book Ms Lane, as the directors were confused as to who really represented her.
No one from Generation XXX Productions has called any studios or directors and told them not to hire Ms Lane. I have over three hundred e-mails saved where I have sent directors soliciting work for Larin. Ms Lane has turned bookings down and not returned any of my calls or answer text or e-mails.
Ms Lane. must not be getting her emails or some one is intercepting those e-mails. We have kept copies of the multiple bookings that were sent to her. I have an obligation to notify the talent when they are requested by a director/producer and there is a booking available and how much that booking is. If Ms Lane refuses that booking, that’s on her. Ms Lane has turned down a recent booking for Jewel De’Nyle’s latest high selling movie line. Ms Lane also turned down a part in a “feature” because her boy friend KJ was removed from the production.
No one has ever threatened Ms Lane.
Prior to this article there has been no attempt to litigate or enforce any of the breech of contract by me. I have only tried to hold her accountable for her commitments. I have suggested to her that if she and her friend KJ want to continue to disregard their contract and continue not to accept bookings, they should hire a attorney and let the courts settle this. Instead Ms Lane elected to air her unfounded accusations in the “Court of Public Opinion”.
I asked around on who Mike Bloom is. I even asked De’Bella but she did not respond. One source tells me that, "Mike Boone is De’Bellas new love interest and partner. He handles the business aspect of Generationxxxproductions. He is the new porn bully in the business…"
Larin Lane writes in responding to De’Bella:
This is my final response to GenXxx reply & lies….
I am with Shy Love’s agency (ATM) & she is representing us to the fullest. GenXxx did ‘NOTHING’ for us in 2 months of being with them. It wasn’t until after two months that went by that GenXxx offered lowball rates to me which were not even close to industry standards. It was then that we decided it was time to move on. Let’s see here…..If GenXxx were offering me legite/reasonable bookings then why would I turn down these great business opportunities & money? I wouldn’t! The facts are that I was ‘NEVER’ offered bookings within reasonable rates. It wasn’t until after two months of not being booked that I got offered these lowball bookings. It was then, after two months going by that I was offered two B/G internet rates at $400 a piece & one scene with Jewel De’Nyle including a solo scene for $600 dollars. Way below industry standards rates. As far as the feature I was going to be in….the funder pulled out of the movie. Their is no feature movie at this time.
We made amends with Shy Love & everything has been great since. I have been back to work like normal, rockin out my scenes, something that GenXxx failed to produce. Our contracts were still valid with Shy Love, which means the contract that we recently received 2 1/2 months later with GenXxx was never valid to begin. Besides GenXxx breached their non valid contracts themselves by not producing any reasonable bookings as stated in my previous posting. They made promise after promise w/o being able to fulfill any of those promises. Blowing smoke??? We were simply running out of money while GenXxx new agency were going through their growing pains. Unfortunately I do not have the funds to wait around while GenXxx gets their new agency going. They are in process of suing us for breach of contract. Once again….what we breached……….we have no idea? It’s quite simple….GenXxx are trying to get something for nothing. I challenge GenXxx to show that we have been booked by them (before we decided to leave GenXxx) within reasonable industry standards rates. I really have nothing further to say on this matter. Please feel free to book me through AdultTalentManagers.com (Shy Love).
I think, the Porn Industry have better things to worry about than some dirty whore trying to bad mouth an agency. Who cares about her rate, suck the damn dick for $400. That is the Rate. Show me another industry that makes $400 in 10 minutes. Have a life bitch, or go back to sale your ass on the street.
This girl just needs to get a decent lawyer. There is no way that her contract with Generation XXX is a valid binding contract. That pretty much goes for all the talent agencies. A contract that says you will be exclusive to one agency that gives you nothing in return is a joke… they just use it to scare the girls into paying the 10% they owe.
there U go Baby girl don’t let these people Push U ladies around and look at it this way. Shy’s good and so is Lisa ann they take care of you girls out here especially Lisa Ann , I heard she’s got a hell of a right hook just like those guys down at the Boxing gym I go to!! HANG in there.
come with the rebuttals ???? I’m waiting!!!
Attention Nermal: I did some legal research after reading this. According to the State of California Labor Commissoner the only binding contract on talnet is one from a state licensed talent agency. Do your legal research next time before you make comments that incite people.
Mr. madrid:
FYI SHy Love is a unlicensed talent agent and should not be allowed to represent talent. Instead of her talking crap all the time about how great she is. get a license and do it legal.
>
Um, Legal.
Um, Radiologists.
sorry that didn’t show up as an answer to: “Show me another industry that makes $400 in 10 minutes”
Dragnet, although there are portions of the agency agreement that are legal and enforceable, the part that says a girl can’t drop her agent is stuck with them until the end of the contract is not. That part of the contract pretty much constitutes slavery. The agency is not paying the girl as an employee or to be a client or for exclusivity. So there is very little they can do if the girl wants to select another agency.
Dear Nermal.
As a state of california licensed talent agency, My contracts have the State of California Labor Comissioners stamp of apporval on them and are posted on the wall as required. Unless you have personally seen my contract it might be easieer not to comment on what you dont know. My contract have a exit clause and it refers the talent to the state to resolve disputes not in the media.
Regards De’Bella
Nermal:
Im sure they are smart enough to have a escape clause for the girls. in contract law, all contracts have a out clause. but what i do know is fact from the state of california is: a unlicensed talent agent or manager has absolutely no enforcement powers of their contracts. that why they threaten the talent and treat the talent like crap. Licensed people have the state to deal with if they treat the client like crap.
What I find intersting about this talnet’s claim is why did she not complain to the state. If she went to the genn xxx wewbsite like i did i found a direct link to the state website to file a complaint. I have not seen any licensed or unlicesed (well we know why) talent agent be so bold to put the the state agency to complain to on thier site. Good Job genn XXX
This talent must be a victim of Shy Loves abusive history/threats and that what really driving this article
Mr.Dragnet2007: excuse me can You get down on your knees and take my huge 8 inch cock down your Fucking throat for $400.00 who gives a flying fuck Morron just call the place I’ll be there!!! just do it Valley dudette or queenette!!! the girl is getting done wrong and your probably like this Producer that had me audition for him the other day and wanted to suck my COCK after getting to see it and then threatens me HAHHHA man the guys in the joint and in Whittier and ELA are lauging at U fools or foolettes, CHECK PLEASE , its soooo LAAAAAAAA!!!!
Mr. Madrid: Who said you have a 8 inch cock. You?????? I never called you names but if calling me a moron helps your erection or lack there of ok. Im around all the time in the valley my friend
Suggestion, but dont take on soemone who obvious has superior intelect and skillsets to you. To me it is like haveing a battle of wits with a unarmed person.
So now your a gang banger. Most of them are cowards anyway so that does not impress me.
Your issues with directors are your issues not mine. So you must be doing gay films if a producer wanted to “suck your cock”.
If their in the joint, ELA (the hood) or whitter they have the problem. Most of them can only write with a spray can of paint
he who luagh last laugh best.
Well, I should say this to DiBella and to Dragnet: I have not seen Generation XXX’s contract and I was wrong to say “There is no way that her contract with Generation XXX is a valid binding contract”. It may very well be a valid contract, and I would have no way of knowing otherwise.
Speaking in general about talent agencies, however: Most of the agencies tell the girls “you signed on to be with my agency, and you cannot go to another agency while you are under contract to me. And you are under contract to me until I let you out”. I have consulted with several attorneys about this, and they all seem to agree that the talent has a right to drop their agent at any time, and that portion of an agency contract would be unenforceable. But that’s just an opinion… you can always spend the money to take the talent to court and see what happens. I’d love to be there to see an attorney say “Your honor, my client got this girl a job sucking cock for $600 and she turned it down…”. 🙂
Dragnet 2007??? U sound like a Undercover LAPD vice cop all right so what are U looking for here on the industry forum??? Or U FBI?? secondly most of the Producer I met or directors or gay so what are U trying tosecond that?? I personally don’t have any problem with that I just don’t let dudes or guys SUck my cock or Fuck them?? i don’t have to?? I have relationships with 19-40 year old women ,girls so what?? third U live here in the Valley full of Nortenos and that 14 love so what but Don’t jack with Whittier they will Pull an American ME on YOU over the rice bags and muffled those screams you be doing with 10 dudes going up that POLICEMANs ass tight or loose from billyclub seesions?? keep it comming I love this!!!

thank you Nermal. I have no axe to grind with Ms. Lane.
The issue here is really Shy Love’s continued interferance with my state licensed operation. I am not going to be threatened by Shy or pushed around by anyone.
What I am saying is the courtroom is the location for settleing disputes with a neutral party deciding.
Larin has to be feeling like she is between a rcok and a hard space.
For that I am sorry.
Mr. Madrid you have gotten so far off this topic that i cant make heads or tails what you are talking about.
Why are you threatening people ??? Does not make sense to me
Gen XXX yeah you are right and Mr Joe friday dragnet2007 I apologize sincerely, Just having a wild and fun day and It got (my Humor) got out hand. so again I make amends!!! My girlfriend said the same thing too and girls in the industry are calling me saying “chill” Ricko whats up too many things coming at you and personal kids things(my 4 year old daughter just pop up last thursday) tune in to a Luke ford interveiw soon on this stuff whooooa. so again let just forget it and have a great evening and stay dry!!
Thank you for your imput and your response. I just wanted you to know I could hang with the best of things. No Im not a fbi agent nor vice. I just believe in the old saying ‘just the facts mam”
I’m not sure why DeBella would start an agency for whores. Being a whore herself she should know there is going to be alot of drama involved with little rewards. I know it sounds nice, sit in an office, people call you looking to rent pussy and you get a fee for making a few phone calls but the reality isnt as nice. You get girls that flake on shoots, girls that have drug problems, you gotta worry about other agents, pimps and wanna-be-managers stealing your girls, you have girls that lose their apt and need to crash at your place but once they get there they start stealing shit. I mean seriously is it worth it? Debella has no recourse, I mean seriously is she gonna tell a judge that the girl is not being a good whore and sucking the cock when she is supposed to? All those contracts Debella has are worthless because if the other party has no money then how can you actually win in court? Most of the girls in the business dont even have checking accounts much less tangible assets.
DeBella, you should really stay at home and take care of your grandkids.
Thanks for telling us that, I’m going to watch this GIRL that’s in my house right now!! scary she’s tripping over something about her last boy friend, gotta go! I’ll open the door and kick onto the Blvd.
Dear Big Dick Daddy (which I doubt)
I am not now or ever been a whore. Judgements are good in California for 20 years so stand by and watch me. I will never be pushed around again by anyone. People like you should not to be in this business your negitive comments all the time to everyone is exactly whats wrong with this industry. If you dont have anything nice to say to me then dont say anything. You should really stay off the sites and take you hate elsewhere. Based on all of your other posts i have read I doubt you would ever say these things to someones face. It is easy to hide behind a keyboard.
