CHATSWORTH, Calif. — Talent representative Shy Love has announced the immediate dissolution of the Agency Licensed Trade Association, a trade group for adult-industry representation companies that was started earlier this year.
“This is a time for the adult industry to present a united front to face our problems, both from outside and within our own ranks,” Love said. “In the interest of adult-industry unity, I am dissolving ALTA and recommending our members ally themselves with LATATA, the Licensed Adult Industry Trade Association.”
ALTA was started in January of this year with four member agencies: ATM/LA, which is owned by Shy Love; Motley Models; OC Modeling; and Type 9 Models. It served as an alternative to LATATA, which was founded in 2009. ALTA encouraged new talent to sign with licensed representation, and published the State of California licensing agency website where talent could confirm that their representative agency was licensed to operate in California.
“We’ve got too much on our plate to waste time with petty bickering,” Love said. “I’m taking this first step to help build the unity we need.”
I heard Ideal Image Management isn’t licensed so they weren’t allowed to be a part of ALTA or LATATA. Sure do like the TATA’s. Ha ha I made a funny. I’m going fishing.
It was a bad idea from the beginning….another example of someone with ego issues trying to create something to control….
I just rooted those agency’s sites, looking for fappable bitches to keep my eye out for. I found a few. I must say though that an agency that has their roster tucked behind a log in and password is doing their whores a disservice. How is a perv gonna Tweet recommendations to photographers and directors when we can’t see the whores?
@Fake Mike South: Is that joint the one with the poorly written press releases on LIB?
[…] was short-lived, however. Shy Love dissolved the group in June of that year and its members later rejoined […]
