LOS ANGELES—J.R. Smith, the Cleveland Cavaliers' most consistently productive three-point shooter all season, is the athlete in the Vivid Radio Sports Spotlight segment for June. Vivid Radio host and award-winning adult performer Joanna Angel will discuss Smith with Gerrie Burke, host of the Sports Byline Radio Network show Sports Overnight America on Wednesday at 11 p.m. PT.
Angel is an adult film star, director, producer, author, and owner of the BurningAngel Empire, the company credited with the emergence and prevalence of tattooed women in the adult film industry. Angel started her business in a college dorm room in 2002 and today the company has to its credit a network of websites, hundreds of DVDs and over 50 adult industry awards including Best Pornstar Website, Best Comedy and many more. In 2016 Angel was the host of the AVN Awards Show and was also inducted into AVN and XRCO halls of fame.
Vivid Radio is the world's most listened to adult radio network and is available at VividRadio.com and on SiriusXM channel 415. The Sports Byline Radio Network can be heard on more than 200 radio stations across the country, on the Armed Forces Radio Network, on iHeart Radio, and on Sirius channel 214, XM channel 203, on CRN Digital Radio and on other outlets.
"J.R. Smith is a star in more ways than one," said Burke. "He's been enjoying the best performance of his career with the Cavs and seems determined to get threes from all angles and against all players."
Becoming a father in January to a premature daughter that Smith and his wife Jewell Harris named Dakota has helped the 31-year-old athlete get a more mature perspective on life.
"My parents, my family, that's the biggest inspiration in my life," Smith said recently. "The cars are nice, the houses are nice, but none of this matters without them. If it wasn't for them I wouldn't be here. I don't know where I would be, honestly, if it wasn't for them. If it wasn't for the structure and the backbone that I have, I wouldn't be able to mess up and keep coming back and be able to sit in front of you as a world champion."
