The boys in Blerds are taking their films in a different direction after discovering it does NOT pay to dress up in second-hand tennis outfits and run around downtown: they're going into the adult film industry.

Well not exactly, but they ARE making some films today with the girls in the Vivid Comedy Party, to be shown at tonight's Vivid showcase at Riddles. Two members of Blerds are opening the show for the next three nights, in addition to the film screening. Blerds member Mike Bridenstine said, "We're shooting some comedic videos with Brea Lynn and Monique Alexander from Vivid later this week, specifically for the live shows. They should be fun to make. Actually, I'm mostly looking forward to overhearing the awkward conversations the guys from Blerds will be having with the ladies. I'm picturing each guy in Blerds right now and cracking up at each of them, individually, for what I imagine they'd come up with to talk about.

"We've actually shot Blerds videos with adult entertainers before. A lot of people don't know this but all of the females who are currently in our videos are, or were at one time, heavily into the pornography business. Okay, not really. But this'll be a fun and interesting experience. I'm looking forward to these shows."

In other Blerds-related news, they've finally made the jump to YouTube and were recently featured on SuperDeluxe and DotComedy. You can 'digg' Kumail Nanjiani's "He-Man" video, too. And watch the most recently released Blerds video, "Upscale Plastic Surgery":
