Lesbian studio Girlfriends Films in February announced that it has signed AVN Award winner and 2020 Penthouse Pet of the Year Lacy Lennon as the newest addition to its girl/ girl contract roster. Known to Girlfriends fans for her AVN Award-nominated performance in the feature Alien Rhapsody, Lennon will perform in, as well as write and direct original productions for the studio.
Lennon says she is “most excited to write and direct” as part of the new deal. “Very happy to announce that I not only will be performing for Girlfriends, but expanding my career to create more depth within my brand,” she commented. “Do not get me wrong, I am over the moon that I will be smothered by some of the most beautiful women in this industry, but it really gets me excited that I will be behind the camera creating visions that I have had for so long as a performer. We need more female directors to empower our fellow female performers that the sky is truly the limit if you create a career out of [adult] work.”
The self-described “girl next door” says she loves communicating with fans often, and looks to them in order to “scope out” what people are searching for. “I have had my eyes on many performers who I feel the industry doesn’t give the time of day,” she added. “I want to be the person who gives these women scenes that they deserve.”
Elaborating on the type of realism fans can expect in her upcoming projects, Lennon promised, “What fans may expect from me are genuine lesbian performers and performances. I am sure that sounds overdone, but I have a keen eye as to who the fans enjoy, and who isn’t faking it. Expect some new flavors within the features as well. I am excited to start doing more gonzo especially. It is a genre that really resonates with the fans. Plus heavier script work, as I always have a story to tell. Now that Girlfriends is giving me so much inspiration, it allows me to use my skills for truly unique scenes with detailed ‘Lacy’ touches.”
Remarked Girlfriends Films president Moose, “When we first met Lacy, I think everyone could tell she had that unique star quality that could take her as far as she wanted to go in her career, and we’re incredibly stoked not only to bring her into the Girlfriends family as a contract star, but also working with her on developing her upcoming projects and bringing them to life. She’s got some amazing ideas for writing and directing, and we’re looking forward to what the year will bring in 2022.”
