Porn Valley- Gene sez: You can imagine my complete and utter horror when, after posting this blind item yesterday– “And, oh, I was positively shocked to hear about an affair the owner of AVN had with one of the honchs of a big porn company a couple of summers back. I hear the affair ended very ugly.”

…when, after posting that delicately phrased, circumspect piece to read on www.lukeisback.com: “I believe, but do not know, that the affair Gene is talking about occurred with Samantha Lewis (co-owner of Digital Playground) in the summer of 2002. It was on public display at the Internext in Florida that fall. Paul struck people as acting kinda strange and protective around Samantha at that time. They had been friends for a long time.

Some porn insiders sensed a less friendly shift in AVN’s coverage of Digital Playground following the break-up of that relationship. AVN used to cover almost every edition of DP Tonight. That stopped.”

Gene sez: The horror of it all – Paul Fishbein banging Samantha Lewis at Digital Playground????? I would never have guessed. As I would never have guessed that Fishbein cuckolded a famous entertainment personality who has NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO idea that his girlfriend cheated on him. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO idea.
