Chloe Jones Goes Vivid

When she left Texas for L.A. with $400 in her pocket, Chloe Jones, who has just been announced Vivid's new Contract Girl, might have chosen another profession.

Mortician.

"I love what I'm doing," the 5'6" blonde said, "but I think that if I had to go into a totally different occupation I would probably become a funeral director. I've already taken mortician classes."

Her current undertaking is far less tranquil and dressed up than Undertaking, but "you have to admit, it's a growth industry."

Chloe has been featured on the covers of Penthouse and Playboy, has appeared on Baywatch and Showtime's Full Frontal Comedyand will begin shooting for Vivid immediately.

Vivid co-chairman Steven Hirsch is anything but grave about Chloe's prospects.

"She has made a limited number of adult films up to now, always with one partner; but with Vivid she'll be working with the top male porn stars and has decided to go all out to become one of the leading performers in the industry."
