The event takes place at Tailwaggers in Hollywood from 1-4 p.m. Media are invited to do interviews take photos of Mary and Amber along with celebrities (more TBA) and their furry friends from noon–1 p.m. There will be a “puppy and kitty kissing booth,” t-shirt giveaways, Tailwaggers gift baskets and many other raffle prizes.

In “After Porn Ends” (www.afterpornends.com), filmmaker Bryce Wagoner examines the life and careers of some of the biggest names in the history of the adult entertainment industry and the ups and downs of what happens to them after they leave the business and attempt to resume “normal” lives. An intimate Q&A session followed the official press & VIP screening on May 15 with the cast, director and producers. “The Hedgehog” himself Ron Jeremy also attended the screening, along with Scorpions bass guitarist Ralph Rieckermann.

Produced by Christopher Mallick—founder of the groundbreaking film company Oxymoron Entertainment—along with Andy Weiss and Susan Dynner, the film is now available via On Demand Release by Gravitas Ventures, reaching 100 million households. Currently the #2 documentary download on iTunes, the film is also available now for purchase on Amazon and Vudu, and will be released on DVD August 21. The film is also a centerpiece feature at this year’s Hollywood Fringe film festival next month.

The introspective film features interviews with 13 former adult stars, many legendary in their realm. These include onetime California gubernatorial candidate Mary Carey, Houston, Crissy Moran, Raylene, Asia Carrera, Seka, Randy West, Amber Lynn, Bill Margold (considered by many to be the “Industry Godfather”), Tyffany Million, John Leslie (a veteran of 542 titles who passed away recently), Nina Hartley (“Boogie Nights”), Shelley Lubben (who became an anti-pornography advocate after a short run in the business), Richard Pacheco and Luke Ford (author of “The History of X: 100 Years of Sex in Film”).
