Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

11/29/09	Supposing you just want to experience our lovely Tenaya providing her own amount of Pink Comfort today, you’ll be quite happy with the exclusive photo set she’s provided today. If, on the other hand, you enjoy a little erudite contemplation with your less cerebral pursuits, you might find today’s editorial worthwhile as well. Considering that you all might be watching the NFL today anyway, just take solace in the fact that this will all be here tomorrow. [FEATURED TAGS: Tenaya]
11/26/09	The cover of Cosmopolitan this month lists an article titled, “His #1 Sex Secret” in big bold red letters at the top. Clearly they forgot to include the necessary tag line which should obviously read, “Does Not Involve You.” That said, we males should probably be thankful for that oversight, and with today being the official day for giving thanks, it seems appropriate to mention it here. We touch on some more reasons inside … which also seemed appropriate.

11/21/09	Cold weather brings thoughts of bitter cold, too many clothes, travel woes, and general mushiness in many aspects of life, right? Well, in Southern California we do what we can to empathize with the rest of the country, but we generally only get as far as Aurora Snow before we forget to be kind and start thinking how we really don’t miss this time of year back in our home towns. Unless you’ve spent some time here, you probably don’t know it, but despite the vast number of people in Los Angeles, no one really seems to be “from” here. A dandy collection has migrated in, however, so we’re all planning on getting together to feel bad for those of you whose “drift” still means a bunch of frozen water, and not a clever idea. We’re planning on doing this at the beach, though, so odds are good you’re on your own this winter too. Sorry about that (theoretically).

11/18/09	So D.Minion walks into the office this morning and says, “I had a dream about Dinah Shore last night.” … Now the story went on from there, but you don’t really need to hear it all in order to understand that life with D.Minion defies description — almost all of the time. Stir in a Day in the Life of Devinn Lane, add a bit of Juli, Wendy, and Tiffany seasoning, and you might be satiated enough to even forget the weirdness. If not, D.Minion recommends Krispy Kremes. (Hey, she’s not always crazy.) [FEATURED TAGS: Devinn Lane, Wendy Divine, Juli Ashton, Keri Windsor]
11/15/09	One of the basic tenets around here for the last ten years has been that we should always show the adult industry in its actual light, however dim that may be. After all, only network television routinely scripts “reality” shows, and having a bunch of isolated writers, some making tens of thousands of dollars per episode, set about determining how things “should” be to “look” real has always seemed, well, silly to us. (Yeah, yeah … So maybe TV in general elevated ludicrous to an art form, but that’s another discussion for a different day.) For now, we’re bringing in another of Maverick’s “Cam Shows” — which essentially involve simply putting a video camera on a tripod and pointing it at the beautiful women currently teasing Mav’s still camera. Even though it wouldn’t qualify as a dazzling new incarnation of applied technology, when Cate Harrington provides the talent pool, you don’t really need to over pay people completely inexperienced with the premise to tell us all how it should play out. When you look like Cate, you can pretty much play it any way you want. Some things in life do in fact make sense. [FEATURED TAGS: AdultStars247.com, Cate Harrington Video, Exclusive Video]
11/13/09	Friday the Thirteenth supposedly brings an ominous ambience. We fear. We fret. Or perhaps we happily embrace a “reason” to just stay home and look at porn — whatever works. In our case the day has for some reason always been a rather refreshing one, perhaps in part to the leader named “Lucky” we conjecture. On this particular day, however, we attribute our good feelings to a decision to once again let Kylie Ireland be in charge, and let D.Minion document the event. Long days spent working seem ever-so-much more pleasant in retrospect. Have you noticed? [FEATURED TAGS: Dana Vespoli, Chayse Evans, Charlotte Vale, Kylie Ireland]
11/9/09	When Steve (or “Just Steve” to you older members) visits the risqué LA offices from the wilds of Colorado, people begin to reminisce. Much to Lon’s dismay, Steve happens to have been the very first member of the Risqué Commune Sites, before at some point we realized that we needed more help around here and enlisted his assistance. … More to point for today would be the conversation that began about Kristal Summers and her early days, and even more pertinent would be the actual visual evidence we have of that first memorable trip with the crew. Now Steve will eventually be heading back to work out of South Park, Colorado (Yes, there really is a place called that.), and all we’ve been able to advise him so far is to stay away from the little fat kid, because he’s always trouble, and never, ever stand too close to anyone named Kenny. … If you have any better advice, Steve would probably like to hear it. [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers]
11/6/09	Steve here (AKA SteveD, Just Steve, for today known as “Mav’s Not Here So Let’s Give That Guy All The Work” ), on location from Risqué central. While bemoaning the Broncos first loss of the season, the topic of Julia Ann came up. I don’t remember exactly how, but if you’ve spent any time with us, you know the topic can quickly shift from just about anything to a beautiful woman — and then to that same woman naked. At some point I asked if anyone knew how many tattoos Julia has, which was a trivia question at one of the member’s parties. I didn’t know the answer then, and I still don’t today, but if anyone has a guess, I’d be willing to personally check with Ms. Ann to see if you’re right. … We had to cut Just Steve off here, explaining how we really try diligently not to ramble, at least in the introductory section of a story. Understanding that, you might feel free to jump over all the whereas and whys contained in today’s presentation and just get right to that beautiful naked women part. We call it Sybian Symbiosis, and that should explain enough all by itself. [FEATURED TAGS: Juli Ashton, Julia Ann, Becca]
11/3/09	Two common, albeit amazingly distinct, definitions come to mind when thinking of “The Golden Rule” , neither of which seem to steadily rule the roost when it comes to adult movies, at least in a microeconomic sense. Although certainly the women in the business appreciate a hearty being done unto, they pretty much make the rules even if they haven’t socked away a whole bunch of gold yet. Maybe it’s always men that make up these sayings, you think? [FEATURED TAGS: Julia Ann Video]

June 2009 Risque | What’s New

Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

6/30/09	Maverick has won the intra-office race to post the debut report on Erotica LA this year, or at least the opening volley. Our posting queue still seems to be surviving in a bit of a content food processor, though, so as a favor to some of the people working diligently on this side of “the pond” we have created a special page with a not-so-subtle hint as to what’s in store for mid-summer meditation around here. As for Mav, there seems to be a rather prominent theme surrounding British Baked Beans amidst the bevy of porn performers, probably proving once and for all that we’re potentially a bad influence. [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars, Erotica LA, Lexi Love, Exclusive Video, Julia Ann Video]
6/27/09	Part of the interest in the adult entertainment world comes from the way that even though it can get a bit plodding, just like any job, every once in awhile things just come up in this world, and you have to make adjustments to your original plan. Even forgetting that whole “Man plans. God laughs.” philosophy for the moment, sometimes you really do get a chance to do something just a little different, and so you put whatever plan you used to have on hold for a minute. When such diversions involve Tori Welles, Ginger Lynn, and Christy Canyon, well, that brings up a whole other range of unique aspects to the XXX life. For centuries the prevailing intellectual theory seems to have been that history repeats itself, what with there being “no new things under the sun … yada, yada, yada” — although we will admit that intellectual theory sometimes resembles a lot more the latter than the former. That said, retrospect can provide both joy and education. Handy, that. [FEATURED TAGS: Tori Welles, Ginger Lynn, Christy Canyon, Exclusive Video, Risque News Insight]
6/23/09	How long has it been since we’ve had a leader that seems to have some actual grasp of real world knowledge? Now we’d be among the (potentially few) that would say that any successful politician must possess a level of intelligence, but we feel obligated to point out that a substantial chasm separates “smart” from “quick” on the mental scale. Those of you that were able to see President Obama’s press conference today got a chance to see one individual with both cerebral characteristics, and gosh but that’s fun. … Fortunately for all of you, we’ll leave the analysis to the plethora of newscasters that assume we all need the guidance and open instead our coverage of the just completed Erotica Los Angeles convention with our traditional “Two Days in Two Minutes” video presentation, along with a very few editorial ruminations. … All in all, even really, really smart people sometimes aren’t as interesting as a vast collection of scantily-clad women. Go figure. [FEATURED TAGS: Erotica LA, Exclusive Video, Maverick]
6/19/09	Those subscribing to the promising new talent philosophy espoused by Lon recently will appreciate today’s efforts as we throw in a little video evidence of Kayden Kross. Having thus illuminated Lon’s seemingly well-placed fascination with the new lass, we will release you to your own rumination requirements. Even if they’re not your own life’s lemons, it seems, one can enjoy lemonade in the summer time. [FEATURED TAGS: Kayden Kross Video, Exclusive Video]
6/18/09	Dallying among the allegedly demimonde, we were, and having a darned good time of it, actually. While we’re busy collecting our various thoughts and illustrations on last weekend’s porn convention, we thought we’d take the opportunity to get one step closer on Dee’s KSEX anthology. It may seem that we approach certain topics with a bit of a plodding nature at times, but can assure you that should you ever need to plod in your life, doing so with naked pictures of Dee can really help make the enterprise more enjoyable. [FEATURED TAGS: KSEX Radio, Dee, D.Minion]
6/13/09	Depending on what day you happen to be reading this, you may feel as though you’re in a bit of a time warp. As you’ve learned if you’ve been around a couple of weeks here, we’re all off in Los Angeles commingling with various porn performers at Erotica LA right now. However, since our historic attempts at setting updates to “automatically” create themselves have generally sucked, we just decided to go ahead and put your weekend entertainment online before we actually left. … So if it happens to be before the thirteenth of the month when you’re reading this, you’re not crazy. … Sadly, we can’t exactly claim the same mental status for D.Minion as we’ve had to actually split up one day on set with Night Moods into multiple entries, just to give people a reasonable chance to work through it all. Sanity, it seems, remains relative. Welcome to our world. [FEATURED TAGS: Night Moods Productions, Kylie Ireland Video, Capri Anderson, Dana Vespoli, Exclusive Video, D.Minion]
6/10/09	Before Maverick set out for his next bit of travel to sunny Southern California he felt it important to polish a bit of 247AdultStars so that it would gleam in his absence as well. He decided that adding a “Dirty Bedroom Solo” of Cate Harrington would be quite the appropriate way to decorate this time around, and having seen the video clips, we really would find it difficult to disagree. In a manner of attempting a truly symbiotic assessment here, odds are pretty good that this particular polish may have several people polishing various body parts of a decidedly more personal interest. It beats the heck out of a great many alternatives, though, right? [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars, Cate Harrington Video, Exclusive Video]
6/8/09	Lon finishes up today with a wall of undulating vaginas. Now the reality of the situation probably didn’t turn out exactly as it sounds, but the description will make Lon happy, and isn’t that the point of life, really? Technically he’s finishing up his Adult Entertainment Expo story before he gets to Los Angeles to begin his Erotica Los Angeles story, but thinking of undulating vaginas simply sounds a lot more interesting. We plan on directing Lon to ask each star he meets at the LA convention about the state of undulation in their respective vaginas, come to think of it. We’ll let you know if anybody slaps him. [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Exclusive Audio, Exclusive Video, Lon]
6/4/09	Somebody asked an interesting question yesterday, and we thought you might be able to help us with the answer. When Sting retires, will he become Stung? … Now Lon does not address this issue in his Part One coverage of the AEE this year, but seeing as how we’re all getting ready to head out to the next convention, we figured we should at least try to wrap up the last convention before we get hopelessly behind. We wouldn’t want these convention stories to pile up like we’ve got Dee at KSEX stories, after all. Of course no sane person could consider Dee’s behind “hopeless” by any means, but you get the picture(s) — and some fun ones here today too. [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Juli Ashton, Kristal Summers, Sunset Thomas, Monique Alexander, Lon]
6/1/09	For the first time in a while, we’ve got something to say that doesn’t take the better part of a week just to get through. We’ve got interesting insights, cunning contests, tattoos, and other titillation. And it doesn’t break the memory bank, as some people around here forget can happen. We call it “Porn Tats and Other Tales” and we don’t even need to spend any more time introducing it. [PLACE STEVE’S PHONE NUMBER HERE] [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, 247AdultStars, Syren Sexton, Kylie Ireland, Shayla LaVeaux, Dee, Keri Windsor, Phaedra Alexis, Steve]

Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

2/28/09	Well, we did warn you that the 2009 Adult Entertainment Expo reports were about upon us, so at least we’re not hitting you completely out of the blue here. That said, Uncle Gibby has thoughtfully begun to burst the dam with only a trickle from Day One today. He had grander plans, truth be told, but as it turns out creating projects for your friends and creating projects for web publication happen to be completely different animals. As does our old buddy Georgia Adair, though, Gibby does hail from the often bitterly cold state of Wisconsin, and we can tell you that the “frozen brain” syndrome at least comes up in the conversation when you’re enquiring about rationale, née excuse, in these sorts of situations. Still, he has a fine sense of adventure (or else he would have run from the rest of us screaming in terror, like most sane people do) and he has an excellent serendipitous flair when it comes to providing opportunity for a dazzling intermission. After seeing his words in print here, you should know, odds are good that Gibby will then set about wondering why he couldn’t accidentally get this beautiful women in his home instead of finding himself watching her from it. Yeah, we’ve all felt that on occasion around here; we consider it just one of the oddities of porn life. Cheer up, Gibby. It could be worse: You could live in London. [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Jessica Drake, Stormy Daniels, Sunny Leone Video, Adriana Sage Video, Exclusive Video, Uncle Gibby]
2/25/09	A person can say a lot of things about people that order milk in Las Vegas casino bars, and we’ve said both of the nice ones today. Providing both a Cliffs Notes version and a caveat with regards to impending AEE coverage around here, we also offer some unique audio interviews from the show floor. Hopefully Shayla LaVeaux, Jenna Haze, Sunset Thomas, Monique Alexander, Jessica Drake, and Lexi Love can help us all quit thinking about milk — at least in some forms. [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Shayla LaVeaux, Jenna Haze, Sunset Thomas, Monique Alexander, Jessica Drake, Lexi Love, Exclusive Audio, Lon, Maverick, Steve]
2/22/09	Basically ’tis a story of a Message Board gone awry today, but we do have Heather Vandeven (Vuur) being a distraction from the deep sense of gloom and despair. Also, we have Dee, Inari Vachs, and a bit of Devinn Lane playing the part of Young Louvres. … We’re still crazy here, in case you were wondering. [FEATURED TAGS: Heather Vandeven, Heather Vuur, Dee, Inari Vachs, Devinn Lane, Exclusive Video, Risque News Insight]
2/19/09	So … “The cows were jumping out of the barn.” Or maybe “It is a tale … full of sound and fury; signifying nothing.” Or maybe if we keep saying the word TRILLION enough, pretty soon it won’t seem like such a big number. Or maybe we should just help Maverick celebrate the birthday of 247AdultStars, and try not to think about anything except pretty girls. … Yeah. Let’s go with that. [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars.com, Cate Harrington Video, Exclusive Video]
2/13/09	For some reason Friday The Thirteenth seems to be a festive day for our illustrious leader here at risqué. That could, of course, be due to the rather unusual name that his hippie parents anointed him with, or it could be because we find ourselves once again discussing life on a lesbian porn set. Whatever the case, it does make for a dandy day, ancient superstitions aside. Since we also have a reputation for honesty around here, we should probably also point out that our leader could perhaps be more illustrative than illustrious, though. Still, with enough beautiful naked women in the mix, who really cares? [FEATURED TAGS: Renee Perez, Charlie Laine, Celeste Star, Sabrina Rose, D.Minion]
2/9/09	Don’t you love it when really famous people say really stupid things? This morning on NBC a quite well-known chap actually said, “You show me a man, and I’ll show you someone that likes cross-dressing.” Now we don’t claim to speak for every man in the world here, but we’re thinking this dude really might need to spend some time outside of the theater district in New York City. … Call it a hunch. While he’s figuring that out, and undoubtedly answering all the similarly-suggestive emails he’ll certainly receive, we decided to Debut Tenaya for the members today. We’ll obviously explain more inside, but let’s just say that we’re confident in our belief that more men will enjoy meeting Tenaya than enjoy wearing high heel shoes — and probably more women too, come to think of it. [FEATURED TAGS: Tenaya]
2/6/09	Consider today a public service announcement on “Acceptable Hazing” methods if you will. Of course since we’re talking about Maverick’s jet-lagged haze as he prepared for the Adult Entertainment Expo this year, and we’re essentially using Jenna Haze in some admirable illustrative enterprises, some people in “The Public” might not find this announcement all that helpful (or appropriate if you want to know the truth). Basically, though, we’ve learned to ignore those people. They’re depressing. [FEATURED TAGS: Jenna Haze Video, Michael Ninn, Exclusive Video]
2/2/09	We have a new writer debuting today, one Mr. “Al K. Purria” — which apparently translates to some tasty Puerto Rican dish if you know how to speak Spanish. Since he did happen to be covering his newbie view of the Las Vegas Show this year, we suggested that a more appropriate pseudonym might be “Al K. Holl” … but apparently some Puerto Rican people don’t know what’s funny. Más cerveza, por favor. ¿Dónde está el baño? [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, AVN Awards Show]

Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

12/27/08	If you’ve been around here awhile, you know that we generally do an ostensibly festive, and usually frivolous post for Christmas Day. And that’s what we started to do again this year. … Then, well, everybody got to talking and things changed. …Consequently we still have a holiday theme here, but we ended up with more of a serious discussion (which you can feel perfectly free to skip, also as usual). Bottom line, we decided to wait a couple days to deliver you package this year, but even if you skip all the words in the Members’ Area, you can see why Taren Steele and Vicca made for a perfect present: SILVER BELLES. [FEATURED TAGS: Taren Steele Video, Vicca Video, Exclusive Video]
12/24/08	Robert Parker (through one of his characters) says, “Love is an amalgam of pathology, rationalization, and fantasy.” … Not bad for a guy usually relying on repartee for his insight. Now presumably at least some of these factors were present as Maverick attended a holiday party for the U.K. Adult Biz. They do seem to know how to throw a party, even if “love” might be stretching it a bit. For his part, Mav remained dedicated to his cause. If you check out the post on 247AdultStars, you’ll understand why. [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars.com, Tanya Cox]
12/21/08	As you’re well aware, the holiday season has arrived again, and in our determined effort not to miss our present from Dee, we’re showing her how well we remember our promise to complete her KSEX section sometime in this lifetime. It works well, actually, since we’ve sort of hit you lately with some rather lengthy and potentially thought-provoking work, and, besides, the NFL season is almost over, and there happen to be some wonderful games to watch today. For our part, we plan on thinking about living a long time during the commercial breaks, because Dee has a big section to complete here. [FEATURED TAGS: KSEX RADIO, Dee, Kylie Ireland, D.Minion]
12/16/08	It. … Is. … Alive. … And apparently it is now OK to tell you about it more openly. Of course that could always change later, considering the subject matter here, but at least we had permission for a little bit. Without going on rather longer than we need to, as perhaps happened in today’s on the set piece, let’s just say that we have another historic reference of “Let There Be Light.” [FEATURED TAGS: Karlie Montana, Jana Jordan, Jana Cova, Michael Ninn]
12/13/08	You could probably guess that we’re big fans of the “Behind-The-Scenes” bits around here, but when we get to go BTS over in England, we really enjoy it. Mav lets us in on some insights via Isabella Kay today, and naked interviews just seem to brighten up a day, don’t they? Also, we get to use one of our favorite sayings with our good buddy across the pond: “Y’all shore do talk funny.” [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars.com, Isabella Kay Video, Exclusive Video]
12/11/08	So we were talking about Sophia Lynn’s story (again, as we seem to be some of the very few groups that seem to like and understand her), and how many of the women that leave the business seem to end up in one Church or another. The discussion took on a keener interest when Bijou noted that for all the times people find it necessary to “find” Him, He sure seems to get lost a lot – particularly for a Deity, after all. A few hours later we somehow ended up on the legal/moral/philosophical conundrums that the potential for actual human cloning represents. … Such is the life in a day of risqué. And people think we just hang around with beautiful naked and sexually adventurous women all day …. OK. We do, but there are other parts too, albeit possibly not as attention-grabbing. Depending on where your attentions lie this week, then, you can either enjoy Sophia in nude glory, or you can read our unique angle on some of the “Whys and Therefores” – THEN enjoy Sophia in her nude glory. Thinking is good in and of itself, but don’t get silly about the whole thing after all. [FEATURED TAGS: Sophia Lynn, Kylie Ireland]
12/7/08	You know how over here in civilization we use acronyms to serve as catchy and short ways to remember complicated titles? Did you also know that America may be unique in that approach? Maverick shows off Cate Harrington today, who just won the “BGAFD Award” over in England. And what does that stand for? Why “Female Performer of the Year” of course. … Did you ever just feel like blinking like Tweety Bird? If you want another lesson in UK English, you can think about how even strange French words like maneuver take on an even more confusing manoeuver in the Queen’s Land. All in all, Cate provides a much more entertaining lesson, though. [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars.com, Cate Harrington]
12/3/08	A “regular” Kristal Summers Cam Show replay works as a dandy motivator all by itself. But when Dee decides to direct the deeds, distinct decadence descends. Have you ever noticed that we have a darned difficult time describing Dee’s dallyings without alliteration? Beautiful women are a bad influence. We learn that today too. [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers Video, Dee Video, Exclusive Video, D.Minion]
