 Hillary Scott Rides Again in SexZ's 'Icon'
She's been out of the spotlight for the better part of 2008, but Hillary Scott is about to
swoop right back into the very center of it with the release of SexZ Pictures' tent pole
production of the year, Icon.
Re-teaming the award-festooned starlet with director Eli Cross — whose Upload and
Corruption respectively earned her the AVN Awards for Best Supporting Actress - Video this
year and Best Actress - Video in 2007 — Icon serves as an all-out video monument to
Scott.
"It's somewhat different for me, because it's more glamorized, but still with crazy
sex acts and stuff," Scott told AVN. "I never watch any of my movies, but I
watched this one, and I liked it a lot. I think it's a cool movie."
So where has Hillary been since last January? "Just hanging out in Chicago, being
totally domesticated and going to school and doing non-porno things," she said. But
fans need not fear ... in no way should her absence be construed as an unannounced
retirement. In fact, it's been entirely by design.
Currently, Scott is merely about a year and a half into her unprecedented five-year, $1
million contract with SexZ, and as company publicist Jeff Mullen explained, "When
Hillary Scott came aboard SexZ Pictures, she was coming off the best year of her career.
So many other companies had stockpiled scenes of Hillary, or were coming out with 'The
Best of Hillary Scott,' it was just too much to compete with. So what Bo [Kenney, SexZ's
CEO] wanted to do was, he decided to pull her off the marketplace, and let some of the
supply dry up. And what these other companies didn't have was the bigger blockbusters, the
superstar vehicles, and he decided to wait for the right superstar vehicle, and Icon is
that vehicle. So it was a matter of kind of letting the market thin itself out of Hillary
Scott product, and then only offer the SexZ customers special product, not just a bunch of
crap.
"SexZ wants to continue the legacy of Upload and Corruption," Mullen said,
"and Icon is a different type of a movie, but it's still a big-budget movie, and
rather than compete with the onslaught of regular gonzo material, SexZ decided to give the
fans something to talk about, not just a movie that dies after a couple of weeks. And
obviously, you team up Hillary Scott with Eli Cross again, that's a special event."
As to the main attraction of said event — the sex — Scott gave her assurance
that, "My enthusiasm hasn't waned over the last four years, and my scenes are still
what they've always been, which is super awesome!"
Specifically, Icon offers Scott in a gangbang, a d.p., a six-girl orgy scene and plenty
more. And rest assured, she will soon be turning back up in public arenas to promote the
movie — including, she promised, at the 2009 AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in Las
Vegas.
Icon co-stars are Tori Black, Jennifer Dark, Trina Michaels, Morgan Layne, Trinity Post,
Holly Wellin and Heidi Mayne.
