Renaud West and Adultcon have been drawing some mainstream press this week including a Kelly’s Court segment of “America’s Newsroom” on Fox News. More baffling, however, was West’s issue of a press release on P.R. Newswire announcing his lawsuit.

According to www.xbiz.com which reported on the story earlier, “[it was] a gesture that Michael Fattorosi of Fattorosi & Associates, attorney for BBW performers Desiree Devine, Subrina Love, Chocolate Nights and Farrah Foxx, finds unusual.

“It struck me as odd that Adultcon would put out a press release about them being defendants in a lawsuit for discriminating against my clients,” Fattorosi told XBIZ.

“Most of the time, the companies that are defendants don’t draw attention to the suit. The individuals filing the lawsuits are the ones issuing press releases. But I and my clients thank Adultcon for the publicity on this case.”

According to XBiz, West declined to comment on the latest media attention surrounding the case, but reiterated a statement from the company press release that said, “Our company policy has always been to vigorously defend against any and all lawsuits. We would look forward to litigating the case and appreciate the publicity.”

In the press release, Adultcon said the women were offered booths at the show following the legal threat, and that the offer was denied, which “leads us to believe that they were looking for a quick pay day and not really interested in exhibiting.”
