Template:Male adult bio Larry David Paciotti (born November 8, 1959) is an American film director of gay, bisexual and straight pornography. He is best known in his drag persona as Chi Chi LaRue and has also directed under the names Lawrence David and Taylor Hudson[citation needed].
Career
LaRue moved to the Twin Cities area and began performing in drag as one-half of "The Weather Gals", a "hag drag" revue. [citation needed]
She moved to California with a friend and was hired by Catalina Video as an administrative assistant and publicist because of her knowledge of porn and the workings of the porn industry.[citation needed]
LaRue worked at Catalina during the initial revelation of the AIDS crisis, in which many of the producers and directors in the gay porn industry were falling ill or dying.[1] This created an opportunity for LaRue to persuade Catalina management to allow him to direct full-length videos.
LaRue has directed hundreds of gay porn films since 1988.[citation needed] In 2003, she began to direct straight porn for Vivid Video, to which she became a favorite among female stars, particularly Jenna Jameson.[citation needed] For some time, LaRue divided his attention between Vivid Video and his own Rascal Video for Channel 1 Releasing.[citation needed]
In 2006, LaRue announced she would no longer produce films for Vivid Video because they were featuring actors and actresses having sex without condoms.[2]
In August 2008, she directed the controversial bisexual film titled Shifting Gears. LaRue coined the term Straight-for-pay (a play on word for Gay-for-pay), to reference performer Blake Riley's first encounter with a woman, Shy Love, and liking it.[3]
LaRue and partner Channel 1 Releasing opened their first company store, Chi Chi LaRue's, in West Hollywood in 2008. The store offers the entire Channel 1 catalog of more than 2,000 titles and products. An exclusive arrangement has also been made with One Condoms to provide all the protective barrier products for the store.[4]
