"Paris Hilton named to 'Adult Star Path Of Fame.'"

By Michael C. Drake

Television star, heiress, and designer. Paris Hilton is many things, but in September addded a new credit to her resume; she was inducted into the "Adult Star Path Of Fame" in Edison, NJ. Located on New Jersey’s scenic Route 1, the "Adult Star Path Of Fame" is the brainchild of entrepreneur Deirdre Krasner.



“As we prepared to celebrate our 34th anniversary as NJ’s oldest continually operational adult store our thoughts naturally turned to those adult stars that helped blaze the path in the early days of the modern adult industry. I saw a need for a way to honor their accomplishments and memorialize them for future generations. Thus, the "Adult Star Path" Of Fame was born,” said Krasner.

Specially constructed of custom laser etched stones, the "Adult Star Path Of Fame" was installed September 2006 with a gala dedication ceremony on September 16th, 2006.

“It’s a very exciting time for us,” said Nick Smerecki, Playtime’s General Manager. “We spent months reviewing adult film history, gauging popularity, and interviewing industry insiders. The initial 41 inductees represent a real labor of love for us here at Playtime and we’ve done our best to include actors and actresses who have made a difference in the industry. Right now the "Adult Star Path Of Fame" only honors performers but in the future we may expand it to include directors, producers, publishers, and others.”

PlaytimeAdultStarPathOfFame.com webmaster John Charles is especially enthusiastic. “The industry response to our release of the initial list of inductees is overwhelmingly positive. Of course we can’t please everyone, even the AMPAS isn’t unanimous over who should win an Oscar, but I think we have a very solid start here and I’m already looking forward to our naming the 2007 inductees.”
