While Jesse Jane rovided interview wrap-ups from a stage just outside the Awards, Casey Parker was Playboy's Girl on the Floor, and as such she probably appeared in more photographs than anyone. By the end f the evening she was just as chipper as in the beginning. Here she chats with jessica drake about oing anal. ("You don't just dive in," drake said.)

Flower Tucci can always be counted on for an outfit that seems at once accessible and impossibly out of reach. Here she confounds us with a prize that could only be won after several frustrating hours of unlacing.

Marco Banderas and partner Lisa DeMarco (get it?) cut striking figures, but what was more impressive was Banderas' skill at turning just in time toward any camera aimed at him from anywhere in the room, as if to say, "Hola, Fleshbot readers!"

I hear things are just as bad up in Lake Erie.

We have never been sure of Robin Leach's function at this event, but we always see him. Leach's own cameraman was beloved of porn stars for asking Jenna Jameson and Tera Patrick who they were (thugh he did recognize Jameson beau Tito Ortiz). Meanwhile, Leach kept a personal record of the Not So Rich and Famous.

At the opposite end of the carpet performers were kept in yet another holding pen.

Former performer Joe Lawrence and signees of his talent agency were the last to walk the red carpet. Much of the press had left at this time since the awards show was two hours late, but no porn star was left behind.

"I was the only porn girl at this one," she said. "I was signing copies of 'Cum on My Tattoo'. There was a huge line. I think that at porn conventions guys just want a pretty girl to smile at them, and any one will do. These people were there to see me."

Stormy Daniels, Jesse Jane, and Carmen Luvana proved that contract girls for different companies can exist in the same place at the same time without Lionel Stander declaring that "it was murder". Here they are at Tampa's Nightmoves show last week.

(Jesse has a tattoo of the Playboy Bunny under her navel.)

The ubiquitous Michelle Aston sprawls on a bench outside Justice Howard's Toys Kill show in Hollywood last week. Aston was featured in the photo exhibition and just about everywhere else. "I'm tired oof teaching 20-year-olds how to fuck," she mused. I reminded her that I was 22.

Finally, Marco Banderas and loveely Newcastle-born wife Lisa DeMarco (get it?) pose in Tampa. We are not sure if either member of the couple has tattoos, but Banderas could probably focus the white hot rays of the sun with his teeth to cook up a workable one of those coccygeal butterflies.
