Rebecca Lord on Playboy: "Vulgar"

10/1/00 -- French porn actress Rebecca Lord has spoken out, via her website, sharply criticizing Playboy's television channel and the multiple porn award shows.

In her online journal, Lord comments on Playboy TV, describing it as being lacking in imagination, vulgar and stupid. She blames the cable giant for depicting the porn industry in a poor light, saying, "No wonder why most of people have a very low opinion of our industry!".

The slender actress specifically cites the shows "Night Calls", referring to the two hostesses as "bimbos" who "pretend to be funny and erotic", and "The whatever Cam", in reference to the cancelled "Helmetcam Show".

"I don't say Playboy TV is bad," Lord writes, adding, "quite the opposite, but these (two) shows are so dumb and vulgar, I wonder who gets turned on by these?"

The porn actress also takes aim at the adult industry awards shows.

"I think that the Porn Award Shows (not just AVN) are ridiculous the way they are done. I refuse to climb on a stage, thank my parents and accept the award for Best Anal of the year!!" writes Lord. "Oh, thank you, thank you...I take it up the ass like nobody!"

Lord proposes to create her own online awards recognizing achievements in the industry.

It should be noted that Lord has never won an award from AVN Magazine at their annual CES awards show.
