Octomom Offered On the Job Porn Training
Octomom Nadya Suleman just got what could be a house-saving offer from a big porn company – one that does not directly involve sex.
Vivid Entertainment honcho Steve Hirsch has sent Octo a letter — obtained by TMZ — offering her a job as a production assistant on XXX films.
Hirsch says he feels Octo’s pain — what with a foreclosure looming — so he’s willing to pay her $1,000 a day to become a member of his production crew — a job where she would not have to perform sex or take her clothes off.
And there’s plenty of work. Hirsch says he has several shoots scheduled for October.
No word from Octo’s rep. Yes, she still has one.

Tila Tequila Sex Tape War!!!
Tila Tequila is so crazy … just one sex tape isn’t enough. We’ve learned there are two tapes, two different partners with two different sexes, and two porn companies bidding for both.
One of the companies, Vivid Entertainment, wants both the girl-on-girl and guy-on-girl configurations — but another company has already gotten a hold of one of the tapes and is angling for the second.
A source close to the negotiations tells us it’s an all-out porn war to sign Tila and distribute the tapes.
Of course neither company can do anything without Tila’s permission. We’re guessing that won’t be a problem.
Tila tells TMZ, “If anyone out there is trying to leak a private and personal sex tape of me that was not meant for the public, I will swiftly deal with my lawyers!”

The owner, Amer Haddadin, tells TMZ he’s at a foreclosure attorney’s office right now and plans on having the papers completed by day’s end.
That $500,000 Vivid porn offer is sounding better and better by the minute.

Steven Hirsch — the president of Vivid — tells us, “We are excited to finally distribute this amazing DVD. Not only is it extremely kinky for a celeb sex tape, Karissa is absolutely beautiful. And as for Sam, let’s just say he’s no ‘Smallville.’ This is sure to be one of our all-time best sellers.”
Watch your backs, Paris and Kim K — sounds like you’ve got a challenger for the title.

Octomom Gets 2nd Porn Offer for $500k
In the wake of her new financial crisis, Octomom has a new opportunity to earn enough cash to save her house and feed her 14 kids … if she’ll do a little porn.
TMZ has learned Vivid Entertainment has fired off a letter to Nadya Suleman … offering $500,000 — if she agrees to shoot “one scene for one hour.”
As we previously reported, Octo will get booted from her L.A. area home if she doesn’t come up with enough cash to cover thousands of dollars of back payments … and a $450,000 balloon payment due on October 9.
But Vivid claims if Nadya agrees to the XXX offer, it can “arrange for [payment] to happen quickly so that you will get paid in advance of your October 9th deadline.”
Vivid offered Octo a million bucks for a porno deal back in 2009 — but you know what they say, time is money … shot.

Jennifer Capriati’s Ex — ‘Perfect Storm’ Caused OD

Jennifer Capriati’s Ex — ‘Perfect Storm’ Caused OD
Jennifer Capriati’s ex-boyfriend says he believes two big things went down in her life that caused her to accidentally OD on prescription drugs — his return to porn and her depression over tennis.
Dale DaBone dated Jen from 2003-2009 — if DaBone sounds like a porn star name … that’s because it is — and DaBone has 443 films under DaBelt.
DaBone claims Jen got horribly depressed every time a grand slam event went down. Interestingly, the OD occurred Sunday, during the time Wimbledon was on. Jen would always complain she was forced out of tennis because of injuries and began taking prescription meds.
But there’s something else that DaBone says sent Jen on a downward spiral – his recent return to porn … something Jen despised. DaBone signed on with Vivid Entertainment to star in “Batman XXX: A Porn Parody.”
DaBone tells TMZ after Jen OD’d, he called her in the hospital Sunday night and she was “hysterical” over his decision to return to XXX films.
But DaBone says he doesn’t believe Jen would try and kill herself.

Kendra Wilkinson is XXX box office gold — more so than Kim Kardashian, sources at Vivid tell TMZ.
We’ve learned the pre-sale orders for Kendra’s sex tape are the biggest in Vivid Entertainment’s history.
For you XXX historians, Vivid has distributed tapes with the likes of Kim, Mindy McCready, Shauna Sand and Kelli McCarty.
It’s sweet payback for Kendra. Remember her husband fumbled the ball during the Super Bowl … while Kim basked in the glory with Reggie.
So, we ask ….
