Legendary Performer Nick Manning Returns to the Adult Industry after Long Hiatus
Los Angeles, CA: LA Direct Models (www.ladirectmodels.com), the largest and most prolific agency in adult entertainment, has re-signed one of the biggest American male stars in the adult film industry, Nick Manning. LA Direct Models will be handling all of Nick Manning’s representation.
Nick Manning began his career in the adult industry in 1997, and has appeared in over two thousand movies, hundreds of adult magazine layouts, and continues to be one of the biggest forces in adult cinema. Manning recently filmed his first starring role in a non-adult film, playing the strip club owner Ian Benedict in the Indie film Cherry Bomb. In 2003, Manning took home the award for Best Male Newcomer by Adult Video News. Manning’s trademark line "Droppin’ loads" is used incessantly on The Howard Stern Show, and has also made appearances in the reality show “Hogan Knows Best” and the 2009 film Crank: High Voltage.
“I am excited to be working again,” says Nick Manning. "Having taken the necessary time to recover from nagging sports injuries, it feels great to be working again. I am fitter, stronger than ever, and I look forward to working with some of the most beautiful girls out there.”
“We are delighted to have Nick back on the roster," says Derek Hay, owner and founder of LA Direct Models. “In this day and age when acting and dialogue in so many productions is as necessary as the sexual performance, it certainly is a good time for Nick’s resurgence. A consummate gentleman and all around ‘good guy’, LADM is honored to continue as his representatives."
