MTV Turns to Porn Stars for Oscar Picks

HOLLYWOOD—With the "Oscars of Porn" (i.e. last month's AVN Awards) behind them, adult stars are able to turn their full attention at the moment to the brouhaha surrounding the Oscars of ... um, the Oscars. And that's just what MTV asked them to do in a segment for its site NextMovie.com. Visiting the set of upcoming Vivid Entertainment feature Devil on a Chain, NextMovie's Jason Fisher asked a number of adult's top stars to share their predictions for Sunday night's Academy Awards ceremony. Kimberly Kane, Skin Diamond, Tommy Pistol, Veruca James, D. Snoop and AVN's own newly-crowned Unsung Starlet of the Year, Brandy Aniston, all got the chance to offer up their best Oscar forecasts in the piece. (Side query for MTV and other mainstream media outlets who visit porn sets: Why do you always see fit to label performers appearing in Vivid movies as "Vivid performers"? Would you go interview, say, Robert Downey Jr. on the set of Iron Man 3 and identify him as a "Paramount actor"?) See the "Oscars XXX" segment here.
