LOS ANGELES—Last week, Monarchy owner Mike Kulich extended an offer to shoot porn to convicted murderer Amanda Knox. In an e-mail addressed to Knox, Kulich wrote:
"We have been following the news and are well aware of the upcoming struggle you are facing with the Italian Legal System. We want you to know that we fully support you. We know in our hearts that you are innocent and you will once again prevail in court.
"I would like to offer you a unique opportunity. As you may have read and were most likely well aware of, the general consensus is you are absolutely smoking hot. Since you came back into the headlines, our loyal fan base has been e-mailing us non-stop asking about you.
"With that said, I would like to offer you the following. We would like you to shoot a movie for us. You will have final say over all terms of productions including what sex acts you would like to perform, talent that you work with, and I am prepared to pay you for $20,000 up front PLUS 25% of all sales including DVD, Web and Broadcast."
"This is a great opportunity for you to make some money to put towards finishing your education and also future legal costs to help with this unfortunate retrial."
Kulich has yet to receive a response to the offer, which has caught the attention of mainstream outlets aush as The Daily Dot, New York Daily News, Business Standard, Daily Star, The Daily Mail and The International Business News UK, as well as social media networks such as Twitter and Facebook.
Kulich added, "We really hope Amanda is considering this opportunity. The whole world wants to see her and we want to be the platform for her to make that happen. We know that she has received our offer that was sent directly to her, so c'mon, Amanda. Let's show the world how ‘innocent’ you can be!"
In 2011, upon her acquittal by an Italian appeals court, Vivid also made an offer for Knox’s services, but in a non-sex capacity.
