What Is Nick Manning Entertainment?
!
Nick Manning is more than just a man. He's a pop culture phenomenon,
recognized worldwide for his catchphrase, "Droppin' Loads," and celebrated by a
loyal army of fans, dubbed ManningNation. He is an author, creator, and
performer, honored in the AVN, XBIZ, and XRCO halls of fame. But above all,
Nick Manning is a brand, a symbol, high octane, product excellence, and no
nonsense. In short, Nick Manning delivers.
Nick's name, face, and catchphrase are already associated with a variety of
successful products, including his own line of premium sex toys, a website
boasting thousands of visitors each week, and the wildly popular "Droppin'
Loads" series of adult videos. With Nick Manning Entertainment (NME), we aim
to consolidate all of these products under a single entity, allowing for in-house
development of Nick Manning products and projects already on the table, as well
expansion into new markets.
We invite you to join us in realizing the full potential of the Nick Manning
brand, and become a part of Nick Manning Entertainment.

Who Is Nick Manning?
!
Described as the "total package" in adult entertainment, Nick Manning's
17-year career has secured him a spot amongst the most prolific adult
performers worldwide. From his beginnings as a professional baseball player,
Manning went on to study international business and economics at Benedictine
university, eventually earning his masters in human resource management from
the University of Chicago in 1992. He subsequently served as the Director of
Human Resources for the Frito-Lay Corporation and as the Vice President of
Human Resources at Citigroup in Manhattan.!
Although he was successful in the business sector, Manning's search for
more exciting and fulfilling work drew him into print fashion modeling. A 1997
appearance in Playgirl launched his career in the adult industry, leading to a
plethora of exclusive adult magazine layouts and, in 2000, his breakout role in
the adult film Mirage. Since then, Manning has appeared in over 4000 adult films
and 600 magazines, winning AVN's Best Male Newcomer in 2003. More recently,
Manning has produced and directed several films, including The Fans Have
Spoken series and Beauty Within. With his distinctive catchphrase, "Droppin'
Loads," Manning has ascended to become the most recognizable face in the
industry. !
Manning has also worked in mainstream media, performing in films such
as For Love of the Game, Any Given Sunday, Crank: High Voltage, and indie
horror film Cherry Bomb. He now has a feature film, biography, novel, and reality
show in development.!
