With the career-reinventing Julia Ann: Hardcore hitting store shelves nationwide today, AVN award winning adult film legend Julia Ann (www.juliaann.com) is announcing an ambitious slate of media and personal appearances designed to promote both herself and the controversial new movie that director Jonathan Morgan calls "the nastiest movie she's ever done, and the nastiest movie I've ever done."

Thursday, December 21st will see Julia Ann entertaining her fans once again as she kicks off three nights of feature dancing at the Spearmint Rhino in Van Nuys, California (15004 Oxnard Street, Van Nuys, CA 91411 / Tel: 818-994-6453). She'll be rocking centerstage.

The beginning of January will see the mainstream exposure resume with a detailed behind-the-scenes story about the making of Julia Ann: Hardcore, featuring commentary by Julia Ann, Jonathan Morgan, and co-star Randy Spears, appearing on the Southern California arts and cultural website Beverly Hills Outlook (www.bhoutlook.us). From there the glamorous star will be off for Las Vegas, Nevada and the annual 2007 AVN Adult Entertainment Expo (AEE), where she'll join the rest of the Wicked Pictures family for four days of high-profile promotional exposure at the company's new booth from January 10th-13th. The show will take place at the Sands Expo Center, 201 East Sands Avenue, Las Vegas, NV 89109.

Upon her return to Los Angeles, the tireless adult entertainment legend will be jetting promptly up to San Jose, California Friday, January 19th, for a special night of VIP excitement at the sprawling, 22,000 square foot megaclub Studio 8, located at 8 S. 1st Street downtown. Northern California's newest and finest nightspot, Studio 8 will provide the backdrop for the "Julia Ann: Hardcore Release Celebration" from the trendsetting creators of Pearl, Orange County's premier nightclub destination.

This swank evening of ultra lounge revelry will feature free, limited quantities of the new DVD, courtesy of Wicked Pictures, and Julia Ann is certain to bring a slice of Hollywood-style red carpet charisma to the Bay Area.

The Julia Ann: Hardcore revelry will be spread across multiple VIP areas on the main floor and mezzanine levels, where bottle service from impossibly attractive servers will be augmented by world-class DJs spinning house, hip-hop and the latest dance tracks. To make the fantasy complete, the "Julia Ann: Hardcore Release Celebration" will offer up some extracurricular San Jose eye candy in the form of go go dancers working the swanky crowds.

Taking her legacy to the next level, Julia Ann continues to participate in exciting new projects, giving career-best performances in such eagerly anticipated 2007 projects as Touched, directed by and starring Wicked contract actor/director Randy Spears, Around The World In Seven Days, directed by Wicked's contract videographer/director Francois Clousot, and Rapture In Blue, from acclaimed Wicked director David Stanley.

A woman who's as intelligent and articulate as she is beautiful, Julia Ann brings grace, style, and no small amount of wit to every interview and personal appearance she makes, so expect the weeks ahead to be full of surprises, as this charismatic performer is a woman of many ideas.

Get ready to spend some quality time with one of the few true legends of the adult film industry still actively creating and starring in new projects today.
