talks about her relationship with her family,

about how she chooses sexual partners ("In the

end, it's always about chemistry."), jealousy

in threesomes ("It isn't always wise to let the

third person to get too close."), about her favorite

sex scene (with Jenna in "Jenna Jameson is the

Masseuse" and with Sunrise Adams because "we both

really care about the scene being hot and genuine.")

and how adult acting has changed her life ("I

have a lot more faith in myself and belief in

myself."). Asked to "say one thing about sex,"

Savanna answered: "It's a celebration of life

and love." Savanna also appeared on The

Howard Stern Show on October 4th, having

a lot of fun talking about her stripping days

and dancing with one of the girls from Scores.

to AVN that she keeps her AVN awards in a locked

glass case along with some collector Barbie dolls.

VIVID CITED AS A MAINSTREAM ADVERTISING

PIONEER ---The authoritative New

York Times advertising reporter

Stuart Elliott wrote on October

4th about new advertisements from Virgn

Atlantic Airways that use "bawd British

humor to spoof soft-core pornography." Elliott

noted that "Virgin Atlantic is not the first marketer

to associate itself with pornography, which has

been seeping into mainstream popular culture since

the movie "Boogie Nights," about the sex film

industry, became a hit in 1997. For instance,

a campaign last year for Pony,

the maker of athletic shoes and apparel, featured

Jenna Jameson and other stars

of the soft-core films made by the Vivid

Entertainment Group, the nation's leader

producer of pornography."

TERA FLIRTS 4 FREE ---Vivid

The last hour of the show was particularly riveting,

as Tera got down to business with a trademark

oral act. Flirt4Free is the home to online group

chat with the Vivid Girls.
