ON THE OTHER SIDE of Coldwater Canyon, in a nightclub on Ventura Boulevard, Jay Shanahan is already well into his next video. There’s a film crew on his set doing a “lifestyles of porn stars” documentary for the Playboy Channel. Their cameraman stands behind Shanahan’s cameraman—Jason Sullivan—and his stills guy. Shanahan’s crew is filmed as they film Jonathan Morgan having sex in a tiny dressing room behind the stage with an unknown actress. There are ten or twelve more porn actors and actresses in the front section waiting for the “club scene.” Brittany O’Connell sits at the bar, naked, chatting with a tough-looking friend who’s come to visit the set. Ali-cia Rio is putting on a Carmen Miranda outfit. Her husband, a cop, is an extra. Tony Tedeschi, the Penguin from Splatman, adjusts a bow tie. Ron Jeremy. Other faces I don’t recognize.

Shanahan has nothing nice to say about the PT-Zen-Lee crew. At one point he uses the word “elitist.” Porn stars have been dissing one another since day one, but the rivalries between directors’ camps is new to me. Someone on Michael Zen’s set referred to Jay Shanahan as “that joker.”

Shanahan films yet another sight gag centered around his bare ass. His sets are kind of silly, but people have a pretty good time, and Jay makes sure there’s plenty for everyone to eat. Since Easy Love began shooting actors have been missing out on meals.
