Company
Vixen Media Group was founded in 2014 by French entrepreneur and director Greg Lansky, CEO of GL Web Media and Strike 3 Holding along with partners Steve Matthyssen and Mike Miller.[2] Lansky says he created the company to create higher-quality video that would be considered more 'artistic' than the normal realm of adult video content.
Vixen Media Group owns and operates eight online adult film sites: Vixen, Tushy, Blacked, Blacked Raw, Tushy Raw, Deeper, Slayed, and Milfy. Slayed was launched in August 2021, and is the first all-girl brand, and was created as part of a mission to revolutionize female sex portrayals while attracting an audience of all genders and sexualities.[3][4]
Greg Lansky sold his stake in Vixen Studios in January 2020.[5]
Legal action
In 2017, Strike 3 Holdings, owner of Vixen Studios, filed a federal copyright infringement lawsuit in the Southern District of New York against individuals who downloaded and distributed the copyrighted movies and placed them on file-sharing networks.[6][7]
