Karen Fisher
Performer inks distro deal with
Third World Media
MILF performer Karen Fisher
has signed a deal with Third World
Distribution for her own line of DVDs.
The first title in the line, American
Honey, is slated for release in April.
“I’m so excited to give Karen a
platform and that she’s trusted in us
for her distribution,” said Third World
Distribution sales manager Edward
Smith. “There’s an over-saturation of
European porn in the market right now,
and there’s a huge need for American
content. Karen is as American as apple
pie, Corvettes and hot dogs; plus,
fans love big-busted, curvy MILFs like
her. American Honey will definitely be
successful, and Karen deserves all the
goodness that we can give her.”
“Although I’ve been in the industry
for a while, I’ve never thought of having
my own DVD line,” said Fisher. “I’m
glad Ed came to me with the idea and
even thought of such a stellar name.
This will be a new way to reach my fans
and definitely help take my branding to
another level.”
Ed Smith will handle foreign and
domestic DVD sales, licensing and
broadcast. He can be contacted at
