It seems to me that they just had some disagreements during filming, and now she is trying to get “revenge”, that’s all.

Well if you look at the screenshots the agreed fees totalled €5200 for four scenes, whereas they only paid her €4935, which is why she's complaining that they've stiffed her for €265. Whether or not she's a well known model is irrelevant (perhaps worse if they thought they could get away with it because she doesn't have name recognition).

Yes, I see it now. But at first, fees were offered in dollars, not euros. Maybe they were talking about dollars? In any case, we don't know all the details.

Many studios are dealing in USD dollars also in Europe

And is EKS dealing in USD?

Giorgio, surprised to see you post here despite your decades of experience in the business and as a professional I'd stay out of such posts

Shame on you, so by your reasoning if a producer steals(or beats up) a model it's not the members/consumers problem.. and we should keep buying scenes from that studio? are you ok or what? I've never watched a scene of Melania, I don't like her but I've morals and sensitivity about petty behaviour

First of all, I want to say that I wasn't in Bucharest when Melania worked there, so I don't know exactly what happened. But today I saw this thread and called Erika to ask her about it. She is in holiday now and asked me to write here her version of the facts.
First thing she said, is that in the WhatsApp's screenshots that Melania posted, it was not Erika herself writing, but an agent. As you can see from the screenshots the first offer in US Dollars was refused by Melania. So it was done to her a second offer with higher fees and the currency was also (mistakenly) written by the agent in Euros this time. Logically it makes no sense to make a first offer in US Dollars and a second one with higher rates and with an higher currency. So basically Erika says that it was a mistake of the agent to write in Euros instead of US Dollars. But still, Melania is right, because what was offered to her was a total of 5200 euros for 4 scenes and that's what she agreed to. Moreover, you can see that after the payment with the missing 265 euros, the agent, instead of explaining the misunderstanding and find a solution (for example this 265$ could have been taken from his/her cut, since it was his/her mistake), just ignored her messages. I guess this was what made Melania angry and fell fooled. And that's why she made it public.
So, this "scandal" could have been avoided easily with some better communication, I guess.
In the end, I want to add from myself, that I know Erika since almost 10 years. She has always been very nice to me and as far as I know, she has always paid everyone as agreed. As for the model house, yes, there are bunk beds, because it has to accommodate a lot of people, but it's actually a very nice 4 floors villa with a swimming pool in a nice area of Bucharest. So don't think that we live in bad conditions there.
That's all from me. I wish all nice Christmas holidays!

I totally agree with Leo. Since I am from the Czech Republic and there is still a movement of porn actresses here, I have the opportunity to occasionally pay an escort with one of the well-known porn actresses who actively shoot hard anal scenes on AV/LP. When the actresses understand that you are big fans of Jiji, they will open up and reveal a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff. And I have to say to my credit that Erika Korti is a great and honest studio, and the girls who shot there always got paid without any problems everything they agreed on in advance. A week ago, I asked the actress who filmed four scenes there, all anal, DAP, TAP, with the fact that the fisting + anal scene with Romeo and the continuation with DAP in multiple actors is taken as one scene. And this amount, which she told me she received for filming, fits exactly with what Leo Casanova writes. So 5200 Euros for four DAP scenes. In addition, she was absolutely delighted with the attitude of the studio and the villa, as well as with the kind behavior of all the people from the staff. Of course, filming DAP scenes is very demanding, and the scene of long fisting and subsequent hard DAP was still painful a week after filming, but the result was absolutely perfect for her and she will be very happy to shoot in EKS again if she is offered cooperation. This is what she told me personally and everything Leo Casanova wrote here is 100% true.
