The founder of Vivid Entertainment, the leading purveyor of pornographic videos, has built a business estimated to pull in as much as a $100 million slice of an industry estimated to bring in as much as $13 billion a year (compared to mainstream box office of $10.6 billion). The key to thriving even as free online porn services eat away at the DVD market is being nimble enough to adapt principles familiar to the rest of the showbiz world: celebrity scandal and superhero tentpoles.

And since Fishburne claims that she never signed a model release for that scene, her lawyers...

Fishburne Cuts Ties With 'Embarrassing' Daughter
Laurence Fishburne has told his daughter she is no longer welcome in his life following her "embarrassing" step into the adult movie market.
Montana Fishburne recently moved out of the actor's Los Angeles home as she hatched plans to launch herself as a porn star, and did not speak to her famous father for several weeks after clips from her X-rated film debut hit the internet.
The 19 year old finally contacted The Matrix star on Monday, and the pair endured a heated telephone conversation.
The teenager revealed to TMZ.com that her dad told her, "I'm not going to speak with you 'till you turn your life around... You embarrassed me."
And Montana admits the actor was furious she used her real last name when she starred in the explicit film.
The movie is due for release later this month.

This particular appearance is put under the spotlight since it would be the first public outing by the actor since his daughter embarrassed him with her porn star career choice.

Maybe this isn’t exactly news but apparently, the reason for Montana Fishburne’s foray into pornography is her penchant for sex.
Laurence Fishburne’s 18-year-old daughter spoke candidly in an interview with E!, describing how she views making her own X-rated tape as liberating.
When asked when her fascination with sex began, Montana readily answered: “I’d say about 16. I lost my virginity and the whole sexual world sparked my interest.”
“I think it was just wanting to explore sexuality,” she added. “‘Cause I know it’s such a big world I was just like, wow, well since I like sex…I wanted to see everything that I would like, every kind of fantasy I would like and porn is a way that I could explore that.”
She even told CarltonJordon.com that “the first time [being on camera] is really nerve-wracking…but I have a lot of at-home experience.”

Montana Fishburne officially has plenty more opportunities to piss off her father -- we're told her first XXX movie was such a hit ... the porn company that shot it just offered her a multi-picture deal.
Vivid Entertainment prez Steve Hirsch tells TMZ, the first shipment of Montana's porn sold out across the country -- more than 25,000 copies in total -- and we're told even more DVDs were placed on backorder.
According to Steve, Vivid has officially offered Laurence Fishburne's 19-year-old daughter -- aka "Chippy D" -- a multi-picture deal to cash in on all the success ... although it's not clear how many adult flicks that actually entails.
As we first reported, Laurence's close friends offered to buy up every last copy of Montana's porno for $1 million -- but by then it was too late ... the DVDs had already been sent out.
No word yet if Montana will take Vivid up on their new offer.

Montana Fishburne wants to get a few things straight: she is not rebelling against her famous father Laurence Fishburne. She had a "fairytale childhood," not a troubled one. She has absolutely no shame about her high-profile porn debut. She did not start a Twitter war airing the supposed dark side of Jamie Foxx. She was not arrested for prostitution. And Kim Kardashian is in no way her career role model. But those rumors about her not being on speaking terms with her dad? Yeah, those are pretty much on the money. "I have a really good relationship with my mom," she told E! News in her exclusive sitdown airing tonight. "She just wanted to make sure I thought about the decision before I made...

Fishburne's Daughter Moves Out Of Star's Home
Laurence Fishburne's daughter has moved out of her father's Los Angeles home as she tries to forge a career for herself as a porn actress.
Montana Fishburne, 19, has reportedly infuriated The Matrix star by filming an adult video with Vivid Entertainment, titled Montana Fishburne: An A-List Daughter Makes her XXX Debut, which is set for release later this month.
The teenager reveals she was living with her dad, his second wife Gina Torres, and their baby daughter Delilah in their Hollywood Hills mansion until recently, when she decided to find her own place so she could pursue her dreams as a porn star.
She says, "I wanted to do my own thing. I didn't feel living in my father's house with his new baby was the best thing."
Montana recently admitted the actor was "very hurt" and "upset" over her choice of career but she insists she's harboured dreams of flaunting her assets on camera since she was 16.
She tells the New York Post, "I can't help that he's my dad; I can't help that I'm his daughter. I'm just trying to start my own career. This is my goal. When I have my mind set on something, I'm gonna do it."
And she's adamant she's not doing pornography to humiliate her dad: "(Our) relationship has nothing to do with why I got into porn. I got into porn because I wanted to f**k on camera. I knew it was going to affect him. But I'm not doing this to slander his name. There was no, 'I want to hurt my dad.' That's bull. That's selfish to do that. I'm not going to try to hurt my dad that publicly. That's ridiculous.
"I love my dad to death. This is not about him. It's about me."
Montana admits she hasn't spoken to her father since news of her adult film broke - and she last called home to send her best wishes on the actor's birthday on 30 July.
But she adds: "We haven't discussed the porno."
However, the youngster's mother, former actress-turned-fitness trainer Hajna Moss-Fishburne, has given her support to the teen.
