I worked with an Internet porn star? - By N.L. Belardes

Maybe Ron Vietti should call this kid for a hair appointment:

The Young Lord of Bakersfield

Reminds me a bit of a modern day Joey Minstrel in Lords: Part One

Not only are a lot of parents morons for not watching what their kids do, I once worked for a manager who hired an Internet porn star. Of course the manager didn't know it at the time. At least I don't think he did... But the New York Times talked about it. And so did Oprah. Only Oprah didn't mention this kid, Justin Berry, who worked as a webmaster in Bakersfield, and also ran his secret business. I remember saying, "Why the hell is this manager hiring a kid to be a Webmaster? What does a kid know about major corporate websites?" The kid was jittery, didn't know shit about marketing, and ended up disappearing from the job. "He went to Mexico," someone had said. Did he have anything to do with the strange manager who hired him? The one who wore the Cosby sweaters? Who knows? That manager is long gone... moved on to some Hollywood enterprises...
