Chi Chi Larue leaves Vivid over policy change to condom optional
Our favorite drag queen porn director Chi Chi LaRue has stopped directing straight productions for Vivid because they've changed their condom-only policy. "As a person who has been very vocal about condom usage in every aspect of the gay business as well as the straight, and as a person who went to work for Vivid because of their mandatory condom policy, I had to stop directing for them once it became condom-optional." Larue said, adding, "It's my policy to use condoms and it would be very hypocritical of me after how vocal I've been in this industry in the gay and straight sides to continue to do movies and not use condoms. Vivid's Howard Levine said, "My hat is off to Chi Chi for his commitment to his beliefs and I wish him the best, but I do wish he would return the dress he borrowed from me for the AVN Awards." (Thanks Dan-x)

Chi Chi was absolutely RIGHT to quit Vivid, although I am not sure that condoms are used in all her videos (Ready foir More, for exemple). Bareback sex on video and on real life is irresponsible and almost criminal. Personnally, I would like to see some kind of protection used for nrimming as well, you know those plastic recChi Chi was absolutely RIGHT to quit Vivid, although I am not sure that condoms are used in all her videos (Ready foir More, for exemple).

SERGIO REAL WAS ARRESTED IN CHICAGO DURING IML WEEKEND FOR DRUGS AND PROSTITUTON I THINK PORN COMPANIES SHOULD NOT DEAL WITH ACTORS WHO GET CAUGHT UP IN THE METH. SERGIO REAL IS BAD NEWS I RECALL HIM STEALING FROM PEOPLE WHEN HE LIVED IN MIAMI.

Did this mean that Chi Chi would be forced not to use condoms in his films, or was he protesting more on principle? I get the feeling that whether Vivid requires the use of condoms or not, it's Chi Chi's set and he has the option to run it as condom-only if he wants to.
