STATEMENT FROM JILL KELLY PRODUCTIONS:

Jill Kelly Productions announced this morning, Friday, January 24th, 2003, that contract performers, Star E. Knight and Shyla Stylez, have both separately suspended their working relationship with the company; Knight has not been reachable for the past two months, while Stylez did not show up for her scheduled shoots on Tuesday or Thursday of this week.

Both Star E. Knight and Shyla Stylez are still under contract to Jill Kelly Productions and the company intends to hold the two stars to the full-terms of their contracts, which includes exclusivity over the next five-plus years. Any bookings with Knight or Stylez for still photography, film and video shoots, dancing – feature or otherwise, or Internet appearances, must first be approved through Jill Kelly Productions.

Shyla Stylez was married to JKP company chairman/CEO, Bob Friedland, in October of 2002. As of last week, the two have separated and Friedland is in the process filing an annulment of the marriage on the basis of fraud. Friedland has no comment and is not taking interview requests regarding the matter at this time, though the filing is public record.

Rog Says- There seems to be a big story there. I guess I wasn’t the only one who thought that this one hell of a strange hire and an even stranger marriage.
