Vivd, you vex me. I know there are very smart people running that place. I’ve met some of them and liked them a lot. What I don’t know is how they pick their contract girls. It doesn’t seem to follow any reasonable formula and I’m pretty confused by the latest choice: 29-year-old A.J. Bailey.

Of Vivid’s current stable, the only ones I like are Monique Alexander (who I hear isn’t even with Vivid anymore) and Meggan Mallone. They’re spunky, cute and generally competent porn actors. The other ones seem to be boring and (paradoxically), plagued by controversy.

I went and looked at some of A.J.’s work so that I could give an honest opinion of her. It’s hard to judge her based on the work she’s done so far for 2 reasons: there’s not a whole lot of it and what there is is entirely solo or girl/girl. I want the girl/girl scenes to be representative of her work because she said that she “was really into girl/girl in [her] personal life” when she was making them, but it doesn’t bode well. Because they’re kind of boring. She just doesn’t stand out to me.

A.J. will be joined at Vivid by the recently-returned Raylene, an industry veteran who continues to have a following even after quitting the business in 2001.

Who knows – maybe that’s what Vivid needs right now. With Hanna Hilton dating a convicted rapist/accused of being a prostitute and Nikki Jayne’s turbulent romantic life/skipping out on her duties at award shows, mature, reliable performers might be what they’re looking for. Bailey is a 29-year-old with a Master’s degree in Museum and Gallery Studies and Raylene spent the last 8 years selling real estate and starting a family. If you’re looking for grounded, these ladies seem to fit that bill. I just wonder if “grounded” is the basis for hot porn?

Check out A.J. Bailey for yourself:
