LOS ANGELES, CA / HOUSTON, TX – While its sixteen 2008 AVN Nominations certainly qualify it as one of the year’s most acclaimed adult movies, one would be wrong to dismiss Wicked Pictures contract superstar and Penthouse Pet Stormy Daniels’ Operation Desert Stormy as a mere “critics’ darling.”
The movie has proven to be a commercial powerhouse as well, dominating the top of AVN’s retail sales charts since its initial release last Fall. Months later, sales figures show the movie still going strong, with the multi-disc title charting at #3 on AVN’s Top 100 DVD Sales For December 2007.
With all the critical and commercial acclaim, it’s hard to believe that Stormy can still manage to carve out a few precious days from her impossibly hectic schedule to feature entertain her fans in person, but that’s exactly what she’s doing this week in Houston, Texas, as she throws “The Longest Christmas Party In Town” December 19th through the 22nd at the Houston Penthouse Club (2618 Winrock Boulevard; for show times and driving directions please contact the venue directly at 713-974-2100).
As a special treat for her fans, the busty superstar will be co-hosting a kick-off party at the club tonight with her Operation Desert Stormy co-star and Hall Of Fame adult film icon Ron Jeremy. The event is being co-sponsored by Quest Magazine and the Penthouse Club, and John Gray (Publisher of Quest Magazine and producer of the Lone Star Pornotopia show), couldn’t be happier to be bringing the stars of the acclaimed Wicked release to town. “When planning our biggest party of the year we wanted hosts that would draw the most customers. Stormy Daniels and Ron Jeremy are the most visible stars in the business and always pack whatever venue they appear at. We are blessed to have both superstars under one roof Wednesday evening for the kick off of Houston’s longest Christmas Party!”
Reflecting on the theme of Ms. Daniels’ blockbuster, Mr. Gray continues, “Quest Magazine and The Penthouse Club of Houston could not think of a better Christmas gift for our local military heroes and the fans of adult entertainment in the great state of Texas than to bring them the star of the smash hit ‘Operation Desert Stormy’ to not only autograph copies of her film but also perform live on our stage for four nights!” American cable and satellite television channel G4 will be on hand to cover the excitement in Houston as well.

But regardless of whether or not you’re in the Southwest this week, if you haven’t experienced Operation Desert Stormy for yourself, now’s the time to get up to speed with the movie Adult DVD Empire is lauding as the “best porn movie ever made.”
Not that the accolades are unique to ADE, of course. Adult Video News has recognized its excellence with nominations in virtually all of their major video categories, including Best Director, Best Screenplay – Video (Stormy Daniels), Best Sex Comedy, Best High-Definition Production, Best Actor – Video (Steven St. Croix), Best Packaging, Best Supporting Actor – Video (Marcus London), and Best Editing – Video (Jonathan Morgan). Beyond the raves for Operation Desert Stormy, Ms. Daniels received mentions in such additional categories as Director Of The Year (Body Of Work), Female Performer Of The Year, and the Jenna Jameson Crossover Star Of The Year award, helping her reach a personal best comprised of over 20 major nominations.
It is, perhaps, just the showing one should expect from the woman described in Adult DVD Empire’s original review of Operation Desert Stormy as “far and away the most talented the industry has ever seen: the perfect combination of brains and beauty that even mainstream film would have a hard time matching. Stormy Daniels is now the force to reckon with in adult.” If you’re in Houston this week, spend some time at the Penthouse Club with the creator of the film ADE summed up by observing, “Operation: Desert Stormy is the movie to beat at next year’s AVNs…and perhaps, just perhaps, for all-time.”
