Porn Valley- On a Goddess of Gush show recently on KSEX, Harry Weiss stated that Sofia Sandobar was a deadbeat and owed him $385. www.adultfyi.com/read.aspx?ID=13580.
I spoke to Sandobar Tuesday afternoon, and she tells me she doesn't owe Weiss a red cent.
In fact, says Sandobar, who was in the middle of eating a samrich at Subway, Weiss never really got off his ass to drum up work for her.
"I have so many connections," continues Sandobar, "that a lot of times people can contact me."
Sandobar says she was with Weiss at Adult Staffing for awhile. "Then they would call him and see if he could get a hold of me. Then he'd call and say, oh, I got you this job." In a couple of instances, where Weiss claims Sandobar owes him money, Sandobar claims she went to the shoots and was told by Mark Stone that he was trying to get a hold of her and contacted Weiss for a number.
"Harry could have said Mark Stone just called me or so and so just called me," says Sandobar. "Instead, he's, like, you owe me this amount of money. He was charging me for something that he hasn't done. I was, like, whatever." Sandobar said she didn't pay Weiss in those instances when Mark Stone called her for Wicked and once for Vivid.
"Harry didn't get me the jobs," she insists. "He wasn't even my manager at that time, already. he was you owe me this amount of money. I said, since when? That was it. After that I hadn't spoken to him because I don't really work in the industry that much any more. I have my own company."
Sandobar says things must be rough for Weiss to bring up a matter of $385 like this.
"That's ridiculous," says Sandobar who insists that she has good relationships with everyone she works with.
"I'm a professional person," Sandobar continues. "As an agent or a manager, you don't handle your business that way with people for this money because you never know what that person is going to be later and can help you out. You can't put down your talent. We work really hard and it's not an easy job." In any event, Sandobar says she has respect for Weiss and has nothing bad to say about him.
"What I really wanted to say is that most of the jobs he thinks he got me are people who already called me and told me he wanted a piece of it. But he hasn't got out of his chair to find a way to get me any type of work. But he can say whatever he wants."
Asked if she felt she owes Weiss, Sandobar replied, "No, I don't. I don't owe him anything. If I owed him anything, I would have paid him. No problem. But I feel like I don't owe him anything. He didn't do his job. Maybe when he represented me, he got me maybe three jobs and those three jobs he got paid for. For those other jobs, I don't know where he got his calculations. I can't even tell you the last time Harry Weis represented me. He represented me for three months, and I realized he wasn't the person to represent me. He's not an agent. He's not the type of guy that's going to go out there and get you jobs. He's more like a publicist. That's all."
