LOS ANGELES — Jessie Rogers has made her debut for Vixen Media Group (VMG) studio imprint Blacked, alongside Damion Dayski.

Directed by Laurent Sky, Rogers “plays an ambitious denim designer with a rich, controlled husband,” this synopsis reveals. “Jessie has twisted his arm for a meeting with Damion Dayski so that he can take a look at her product. This type of meeting could catapult her into an overnight success. Dressed in a white crop top and short jean skirt, Jessie is going for it with this opportunity. While she adjusts Damion’s pants, she grabs his dick through the jeans and suggests they go to her bedroom. If Damion wasn’t impressed with her line, he’s definitely impressed with Jessie’s sex drive and skills.”

Rogers enthused about the scene.

“When I came back into the industry, Blacked was always at the top of my list,” she said. “I’m so glad this scene is finally out. It’s one of my best for 2025 and one of my favorites for the VMG brand.”

The scene is streaming on Blacked.

NEW YORK — Alicia Sinclair Rosen, founder and CEO of COTR, is featured in Amanda Chatel’s new Wired article, “Your Favorite Sex Toy Brand Might Go Under.”

The article explores the impact of escalating tariffs on pleasure product manufacturers — a subject that XBIZ recently tackled as well.

COTR is the manufacturer behind the sexual lifestyle brands Le Wand, b-Vibe, and The Cowgirl, and as Rosen shares in the article, the company is taking a proactive and strategic approach that will allow it to navigate the volatile trade environment with caution and clarity.

“At Le Wand and b-Vibe, we’re taking a measured approach to the tariff situation,” Rosen told Wired. “While our products are manufactured in China, meaning tariffs will certainly impact our cost structure, we’ve deliberately maintained sufficient inventory to give ourselves time to evaluate the situation properly.”
