I’d like to clear up something you reported a while back – that Ginger Lynn and Bionca were no shows. Ginger Lynn never agreed to be in the movie, so she had no reason to show up. Amber talked with her a lot in the early stages of planning, but weeks before we shot the thing Ginger declined to become part of the project.

Bionca was in it from the start, worked in pre-production and donated a goodly sum of money toward helping the production get made, but she told me in a phone conversation that Amber treated her “like shit on a stick” and she couldn’t keep going home feeling so beaten down every day, so when it came time for her to show up and do the scene with Amber she felt she couldn’t do sex with someone who had been so abusive to her.

Feel free to contact Bionca to verify this. Frankly, Amber treated me the same way. I’ve never been so disrespected in my life. And it wasn’t just me, it was almost everybody on the project. She was like an evil Queen of Hearts, screaming “Off With Her Head!” at every turn, totally out of control.

It’s a damn shame because her original idea was truly brilliant to bring this industry together to help one of its own. We were all excited because it was the first time something like this had ever happened in this business. But it quickly lost its original intent and became The Amber Show. She had an opportunity to be a real humanitarian here.

I have no idea what she thought she would gain by handling things as she has. I stayed with the project only because of my friendship with Ron Sullivan, and I know he came to feel that she was like a vulture, picking over his bones before he was dead.
