And yet when she won the awards recently everybody was onboard.
Now why is that do you think?
Sounds like the tall poppy syndrome to me.
Either way she still should be congratulated simply because Penthouse is quite simply the premier magazine of the past thirty years for the thinking man who wants a little more than a picture book.
Penthouse with more British content,sounds like a winner to me.
Just make sure that means more british birds from the porn scene and of course a monthly column on English Football.
Well Done Violet Storm !!!! Go Girl.
Thats Two awards and as things run in threes I wonder what could be next.

Well done to Violet Storm.
Oh, by the way Marcus you didnt really give anyone time to comment before getting yourself all upset.
Did Linzi Drew used to be the editor of Penthouse in the early 90`s? I think she did but I`m not sure.

The relative silence may not mean that people aren't made-up for her, but possibly reflects the forum's 'readership': FILMS, not mags.
Haven't read Penthouse since Nevile Player left for MO, and video was invented.

Fercryingoutloud. Why don't we all pick up DV cams and start becoming directors as well?
(Still, I suppose Violet's passed her NCTJ exams and put the time in as a cub reporter, so I can't knock her.)
Violet will be a figurehead, nothing more. No different to when Linzi Drew was working for Penthouse, although Linzi's proved her worth as a writer.
Good luck to Violet. I say take the money and run.

Linzi was loads more than a figurehead, she always got involved and worked real hard at Penthouse. Part of the reason to have a current model to lead the mag is simple who the fuck wants to meet a boring old fart that has been through the ranks. Everyone wants to meet a prety girl. Violet is writing her own two collums and will direct the pet photo shoots. Yes there will be more UK totty. I will help where I can mainly doing a bike feature and shooting a few girls for them.
All these qualifications do you need them ???? yes well I am GATP aproved and bonded at Whitehall so that should help,,,,,,,,,in my ass. Magazines are about ideas and drive. Violets new blood will help because new blood always does. and what do I know ? I have only been the industry a few weeks. Take a look at ICE magazine its published by the same group..top class mag. This is all about distribution and the new owner has that big time. Well at least we have a forum going now.
