Starlet Entertainment, StarletBucks Cease Operations
Saw this on XBiz.com http://www.xbiz.com/news/112400 in case anyone is an affiliate.
"LOS ANGELES — Despite a recent site launch, open casting call and an upcoming announcement of a new contract star, Starlet Entertainment and its affiliate arm, StarletBucks, has gone out of business. XBIZ has confirmed that Starlet Entertainment officially closes its doors Sept. 7, after its investors pulled all funding from the program with reportedly no explanation, and have terminated its staff's employment.

This is very surprising considering I just met Jessica and Kristin at InterNext Florida. In their press releases, SEG was touting the benefits of having mainstream investors backing the company.

Yeah REAL fast. Idiotic that someone would pull the plug before they even get going especially after spending all that money at shows and start up.

The only explanation that makes any sense is legal issues some sort.

Well you know boys, a nuclear reactor is a lot like women. You just have to read the manual and press the right button

From what I understand the investors had some unrealistic ideas and expectations about the industry.

The investors probably just watched the show on cnbc and saw how bad the porn biz is fucked and cut thier losses. If they were mainstream investors they prob had better shit to do with the money and ran after learning a bit more about this biz now.
