Obtained by a third party by Vivid, Jones initially sought to block the tape’s release but changed her mind after meeting with company founder/co-chairman Steven Hirsch.
“I made the decision to work with Vivid after meeting with Steve Hirsch and looking at documents that give Vivid the right to release the sex tape,” Jones said in a statement she authorized Vivid to release. “The video was coming out whether I liked it or not and I didn’t want everyone else to make money from this private home video except me. If Kim Kardashian can survive and in fact do even better after a sex tape scandal, I guess I can, too.”
Jones, a 21-year-old brunette, is said to have had a brief but passionate liaison with the famous actor who’s married to actress Demi Moore. The pair supposedly met at Lucky Strike bowling alley in Hollywood, exchanged numbers and had sex on Kutcher’s sofa.
“The response to this movie has been phenomenal,” Hirsch said. “We’re excited about getting it out so that everyone can see how sizzling Brittney actually is.”
Earlier this month Jones tried to auction on eBay a grey cashmere sweater that she claims Kutcher gave to her. The bidding reached $21,600, but the site pulled the item with only two hours to go in the auction.
Hirsch and Jones met for the first time at a Hollywood coffee shop earlier this month and he presented her with a proposal under which she would also participate in the marketing of the DVD. She failed to respond immediately, although Vivid said it would move forward with distribution whether she cooperated or not.
Vivid also received a separate cease and desist letter from Kutcher’s attorney and after internal discussions and consultation with counsel, Vivid decided not to use the A-lister’s actual name in connection with the sex tape.
