SALT LAKE CITY -- Mormon music fans thought they were getting a DVD about the squeaky clean boy band Everclean. Instead, they got "Adored: Diary of a Porn Star."

Two Utah families reported the packaging mix-up after buying DVDs at Deseret Book stores, which are owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS). The DVDs were pulled from the shelves.

"We will not put it back on our shelves until we're 100 percent sure it's the proper disc that goes into the packaging," said Deseret Book spokeswoman Gail Halladay.

The PG-rated "Sons of Provo" chronicles the life of an LDS boy band, Everclean.

"Adored: Diary of a Porn Star" is an unrated movie about an adult film star who reconnects with his family, said Corey Eubanks, spokesman for Wolfe Video, a distributor of films featuring gay and lesbian characters.

"It's not a porn film at all," Eubanks said. "It's just about someone who is a porn actor."

Both films hired the same Los Angeles company to make DVD copies of their movies. Somewhere in the process, "Adored" discs were packaged as "Sons of Provo."
