TLA Raw, PopPorn Merge Under PopPorn Brand

PHILADELPHIA—TLA Entertainment announced today a re-branding of its straight adult division merging the TLA RAW retail website and direct mail catalog with the adult entertainment blog Popporn.com. The new entity will operate under the PopPorn brand name.

The new PopPorn adult entertainment site can be seen here.

The merger of these two sites comes on the heels of TLA Entertainment's acquisition in January by Sterling Genesis, an international investment group, and the promotion of Brian Sokel to Executive Director of all TLA Entertainment retail divisions.

"TLA has had an unbelievable revitalization over the last three months," said Sokel. "The acquisition led to reinvigoration and fresh investment in our business allowing us to rethink our brand in the straight adult marketplace. It's only logical to merge our shopping site with our blog into one perfect adult entertainment destination under the name that most closely matches who we are: PopPorn—the perfect blend of pop entertainment, nudity, porn, and more."

The new PopPorn promises a continued commitment to providing the very best in home entertainment for adults at low prices offering privacy for their valuable customers. Orders will continue to be shipped in discreet packaging with no mention of the word “porn.” The TLA RAW direct mail catalog will also be rebranded starting with issue 459.

TLAgay.com, TLA Entertainment's gay retail division, will be unaffected by this change.

As one might expect, PopPorn on-camera personality Spock Buckton offered his own take on this merger. A video and his own press release can be seen and read here.
