NEW YORK—In what is perhaps a growing trend of mainstream porn star acceptance, comedian Jon Stewart gave a meaningful shout out to adult superstar Vicky Vette on Monday night during his hugely popular The Daily Show on Comedy Central.
Stewart, for those who have been in a coma for the past decade or so, has been nominated for 16 Emmy Awards, hosted the 78th and 80th Academy Awards and was named the "Most Influential Man of 2010" by Askmen.com. Guests on his show have included Presidents Barrack Obama and Bill Clinton, over 20 Senators and countless Hollywood actors.
But all of that was quickly forgotten as Vette's mention came up in a monologue delivered Monday by Stewart to God, when the subject somehow turned to masturbation. Stewart, who is as honest as the day is long, admitted to having masturbated to Olivia Newton John, Abba album covers… and Vicky Vette! The episode can be found here, with Vette's mention coming around the 12.35 minute mark.
Vette's shoutout on The Daily Show comes on the heels of Norway's biggest mainstream newspaper naming her the #1 Followed Norwegian in the World and "Norway's Twitter Queen."
Vette, who also is celebrating two XBIZ nominations for Webstar of the Year and Best Performer Website, is the second most followed active adult star on Twitter with over 381,000 followers, and runs the popular VNA Network of porn star sites with stars such as Nikki Benz, Puma Swede, Julia Ann, Sara Jay and others. She also just launched a live cam show network of solo girl sites at vnalive.com which is already up to over 30 participating girls.
"Like a lot of people, I watch the Daily Show all the time," said Vette. "And I too am guilty of masturbating to Abba and Olivia Newton John (LOL). Naturally, I'm flattered to have gotten a mention on such a popular show. Jon Stewart is a hilarious guy and I thank him for singling me out."
Vette will be appearing with a number of the VNA Girls at the AEE/AVN Convention in Las Vegas at the Hard Rock Casino, January 17-19. She also performs weekly online for website members of her official site.
