DEREK HAY... aka Ben English.

When the day comes that porn has gone fully mainstream, it's likely no one will have had a bigger influence than Ben English. Ben is the owner/operator of LA Direct Models, and quite possibly the first person to respect the talent side of the industry as a real business. With over 100 performers on the roster, LA Direct is perhaps the biggest and best adult talent agency the world has ever known. No one knows adult talent better than Ben, and no one is more qualified to help us find America's Next Hot Pornstar. A sometimes performer himself, Ben won the Best Male Newcomer of the Year at the 2004 AVN Awards. He began his entertainment career as a lighting technician in the music business and was introduced the adult world by two porn stars he met while touring with the band Metalica. When a friend asked him to help her run her talent agency in London in the mid-90's, the dye was cast, and the rest just might make history.
