WHO’S WHO
Misty Stone Lands Mainstream Film Role, Inks Doll Deal
Soon, fans of adult star Misty Stone will be able to see and touch more of her.
First off, Stone has landed a costarring role in the indie film Bunda. Stone plays
the role of Wowee, a hip-hop recording artist.
“I’m so excited about this,” Stone said. “I love working on mainstream
projects, and this is a fun role. The movie has an important message about
self-esteem and I think it will raise a few eyebrows.” (Stone, left, is pictured in
Wicked Pictures’ Magic Mike XXXL: A Hardcore Parody.)
Stone also will be getting her own love doll thanks to a deal with 1am Doll
USA. Stone will be the company’s first “Signature Starlet.” “We are very happy to
welcome Misty to the 1am Doll USA family,” said Brent, the company president.
“To have our first African-American love doll be based on an award-winning
adult actress truly makes this a monumental announcement.”
“I am very honored to be 1am Doll USA’s first ‘signature starlet’,” Stone said.
“I can’t wait to see how it looks! I know my fans will love it, baby.”
