  3. Introduction I’m sure that you have all seen some type of adult entertainment before, whether it was a magazine, movie, or on the internet. Many of you probably wonder how much money is actually in this industry. Some may even wonder how to get a piece of the pie.

  4. Introduction (continued) I will let you know that it is a surplus of males already in the industry and even more trying to become entertainers. Therefore it is easier to for women to become entertainers because there is a shortage. So for a guy to become part of this industry the best thing to do is have a woman that he already knows is interested in the business to agree only to work with him.

  5. Introduction (continued) By doing this you get your foot in the door, your name in the air, and then you are able to explore your options. As far as the money is concerned, there is plenty of it because SEX SELLS!

  6. History For as long as adult entertainment has been around we all know the big names in the industry, Playboy, Hustler, and Penthouse just to name a few. But many ask the question who started it the industry on the internet. That is such a difficult question because no one really wants to take full responsibility for it.

  7. History (continued) Even some of the big names don’t want to take credit for it except Playboy and the only reason is that to make their name bigger than what it is. The reason Playboy gets the recognition is because they are the company that people associate adult entertainment with. Many would think that there are a lot of cities that you can start a career in adult entertainment but that is not true.

  8. History (continued) There are very few cities in the U.S, the majority are in other countries and over seas. Some of the cities in the U.S are Miami, New York, San Francisco, Vegas, and the infamous Los Angeles. As far as other countries and over seas it goes from Amsterdam to London.
