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.

Getting a head at the 2009 AEE
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]

Three guys that no one knows, but they do know all those women we mentioned.
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]

Heather, not quite as distracting here as she ends up inside.
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]

Faulkner, Shakespeare ... or Cate Harrington. Probably Cate.
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]

Monitoring the Models. It's a good gig.
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]

Tenaya and her chaps. She's sure to have more friends soon.
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]

Can you see Jenna through the haze?
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]

Kylie Ireland gets groped. That happens.

And now for something completely different. … OK. So those of you that have been members for some time probably realize that one could use that particular sentence referring to just about anything we’ve ever done around here. But we did make a conscious effort this time. After our last “topless girls pretending to wrestle” effort, we decided we should do something as far away from that “fluff” as possible. It didn’t take very long for someone to say, “Well, D.Minion on any of the Neo_ sets would fit that bill perfectly.” We decided this to be perfectly true, and so we’re heading into this particular “matrix” with DM on the set of Neo_Pornographia 4 – because why in the world would we start with number one, after all? Oh, and the person that came up with this idea has now received a very public “Thank You” for the suggestion, which turns out to be a lot cheaper than giving them an actual raise in salary.

After surveying a very knowledgeable group of people deeply involved in the porn business, here is what we can definitively explain about the breadth of human sexuality: “We have no idea if limits even exist, and we’ve long ago stopped looking for them.” Great. That helps a lot. … Quite honestly what we’re talking about this time really looks a lot like a significantly more amateurish and topless version of the WWF – or any other of those confusing wrestling acronyms. Still, those poor souls don’t have Kristal Summers and Charlie Laine in the ring. … Um, so WE WIN! … Don’t you just love it when that happens? [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers, Charlie Laine]

This is NOT the Hippie, Hippie Shake.
3/25/08

It might actually be “all in a name” – if you’re like a philosopher or something. If you still have to pay your rent every month, though, erudite musings really lose their luster quickly. So we thought we’d offer the one super-secret to success in the movie business today, and we thought we’d use the adorable Cassidey as sort of a visual aid. If you get to choose, we’d always suggest picking beautiful naked women to help you out. Just put an “e” on the end of the “aid” word. [FEATURED TAGS: Cassidey Video, Exclusive Video]

Cassidey. She of many names.
3/19/08

The annual Adult Entertainment Expo can be a deeply personal experience, as any of you that have been members for very long can attest. … That’s one of the themes for today, as we pay necessary homage to the American writers in the fold. It seems that we’ve been ignoring those particular contributions, but we can assure you that it’s only because of volume rather than malice. (Never attribute to malice what stupidity can adequately explain.) If we give you another quote it may help: “It actually looks as though Sunset Thomas may have some new competition in the “Best Star to Get Multiple Photos With” category. Being the consummate professional, and purely dedicated to the edification of the risqué Member, however, Lon probably forgot to enjoy this at all. … Probably.” Or it may not help at all. We can never tell.  [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Sunny Lane, Celeste Star, Kylie Ireland, Sunset Thomas, Jessica Drake Audio, Shane Audio, Exclusive Audio, Steve, Lon]

jessica drake in a dress/blouse. We love that.

Thus speaks anew the U. K. contingent. (Well, it’s really just Mav and a U. K. production company that we work with, but “contingent” sounds much better, don’t you think?) And although technically this would just be Maverick’s experiences and photos of Day Two of the AEE, when you’re talking about U. K. folks you get to say fun things like “thus speaks anew” – and that’s fun. [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars, Adult Entertainment Expo, Lexi Love, Christy Canyon, Jenna Haze, Gina Lynn, Natasha Nice, Exclusive Video]

Nikki Kane and Renee Perez for Maverick
3/12/08

In an unusual twist, even for us, we’ve set about a Variation on a Theme as we continue a bit with Ms. Kylie today. Well, maybe it’s really more of an Extrapolation on a Theme … or really even more precisely an Extrapolation on a Hypothetical Theme. … Come to think of it, maybe it’s best if we just stop trying to explain it and let you get to it. Begin with this: Nudity as Life …. [FEATURED TAGS: Kylie Wylde]

Kylie Wilde once again.
3/10/08

We’re going in search of Kylie today, although which one remains a bit of some conjecture. Now you have to consider that there are a few of them in XXX now, and then you have to factor in that each “persona” in our business tends to take on a wide variety of incarnations over time. So depending on which Kylie, at which point in her career, that we get, the impact could change a lot. On the upside, naked females enjoying themselves has always seemed like a dandy control group to us.. Don’t you just love our science? [FEATURED TAGS: Kylie Wylde Video, Exclusive Video]

Kylie Wylde. And we believe she might be.
3/8/08

Have you ever spent a few weeks watching people getting bloodied in a bunch of, although certainly creative, relatively messy ways? … That doesn’t matter. … You know what’s better? … Looking at lots of pictures of Kristal Summers naked. … Now granted looking at lots of pictures of Kristal Summers naked pretty much beats anything, but this time you can also listen to interviews of Ninn Worx Producer, Lorraine Sisco, and risqué Friend Kylie Ireland while away a little time with D.Minion as she played around with some new toys. (Before you get too excited here, we should tell you that it was just a new digital recorder and had nothing to do with the more traditional “adult novelties” as you may have come to think of them. On the other hand, we do have those pictures of Kristal Summers naked. Could be worse. (Horror movies are bloody. Have you ever noticed?) [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers, Lorraine Sisco Audio, Kylie Ireland Audio, Exclusive Audio, D.Minion]

Ever think about traveling with a porn star? … We mean seriously think about it. … Well, it can be an interesting experience, if for no other reason than looking at the people’s faces around you when you walk into an airport, or a hotel, or any other “normal civilization” location. Today we thought we’d give you a little previously unseen exposure to what it can be like – with, say, Inari Vachs. Upon reflection you’ll probably like the way we think. [FEATURED TAGS: Inari Vachs, Risque News Insight]

Roommates should all look like Inari Vachs.

We can tell you for a fact that looking at a blank page (or these days a blank computer screen) and being faced with the task of filling it with pithy insights can be a daunting task. It doesn’t really matter if you’re 10 and in grade school, or 20 and in college, or … well … a bit older than that. The feelings of fright and inadequacy don’t ever really change. If you happen to be new in the office around here, though, you’ll fairly quickly discover that we basically don’t care. We try and try to tell new folks to just write the truth, just write what they feel, and the rest of us will work it in. All of that said, "Bijou Boudoir" makes her debut today, and in keeping with another of our general philosophies, that’s more than enough French for one day. Suddenly we’re thinking of soup though. Odd. The rest of you can enjoy watching a newbie at work with some dazzling and beautiful young women doing some dazzling and beautiful things with each other. Then you can ponder Bijou’s curious perspective as you look for soup too.  [FEATURED TAGS: Renee Perez, Jana Jordan, Karlie Montana, Carli Banks, Samantha Ryan, Andie Valentino, Celeste Star, Marlie Moore, Lena Nicole, Charmane Star, Michael Ninn]

Bijou did not pick this picture of Renee Perez.

In the midst of this Memorial Day Weekend we decided to magnify our memorable recollection of Georgia and her merry mate Justine. We may have made this decision to multiply our enjoyment, or maybe to avoid any marginal minimization of our mirthful memories. Or we might just like alliteration today. Maybe. … Whatever. Enjoy the video and stills of the two luscious ladies and then go fire up the bar-b-que. Eat some burgers, or steaks, or Johnsonville Brats – or even some portabella mushrooms if you really must. (Bleh.)  [FEATURED TAGS: Georgia Adair Video, Justine Joli Video, Michael Ninn, Exclusive Video]

5/22/07

You’ve got Georgia Adair, Evan Stone, and Justine Joli on set. You throw in a little DP with Dominica Leone and then set visits by TJ Hart and Stephanie Swift … and then D.Minion sets about her story tasks. Quite honestly, we had no shot here. Some 230+ pictures and +/- 3,000 words later, we’ve only accomplished Day One of Becoming Georgia Adair: Self Portrait. When it rains it pours. Of course when it’s raining beautiful naked women, well then you just deal with it. Oh, the terrible toils …. [FEATURED TAGS: Georgia Adair, Dominica Leoni, Justine Joli, TJ Hart, Michael Ninn, D.Minion]

Georgia. Beautiful in any attire ... or none.
5/17/07

Let’s say we have some "Cock Tales of the Kinky variety" shall we? … Now if you take that as your opening assumption then you really don’t have to dig too deeply before you think something along the lines of, "Gee. This might be interesting." … And wouldn’t you know that, "Gee. You may be correct." We should admit that today’s offering may induce some thinking rather more deep than you’re used to when dealing with XXX entertainment, but it’s not so much a requirement as a suggestion. Since we’re on the topic, we should also admit that whatever else it induces you should probably just keep to yourselves. There is such a thing as too much honesty in life, regardless of what the pure theorists think. Let’s not even think about them, come to think of it.

OK. Now we can relieve what has certainly been excruciating anticipation. We hated to make you suffer before peeking into Day Two of Fem: Staccato, but if you’ve been following the "plot" here you can see why we’re all very happily blaming D.Minion for the delay. All in all, any day that we can blame someone else for something, we’re pretty content. You take you pleasures in life where you can find them. Oh, and Jana Jordan, Charmane Star, Carli Banks and Andie Valentino frolicking in lesbian freedom seems like a dandy pleasure to take too. Bonus!  [FEATURED TAGS: Jana Jordan, Celeste Star, Renee Perez, Andie Valentino, Charmane Star, Carli Banks, Lorraine Sisco, Michael Ninn, D.Minion]

Jana, Bubblegum, and Charmane. You didn't think DM would forget Bubblegum did you?
5/14/17

We’re interrupting our fascinating coverage of all the naked women in FEM to bring you a couple of naked women from the Risqué fold, as it were. We’re not doing this for any particular reason, and certainly Mr. A Writer didn’t think that today was anything special when he emailed in today’s submission. … Nope. … If there happens to be a special birthday today, well we plum forgot all about it. … Probably. … You will notice as you peruse the photos today, though, that Taren Steele and Vicca apparently bring a broom with them to the beach when they go nude sunbathing. Presumably they may need to sweep up. Who knows? We don’t recall. … Now when you consider this fact, it really may be difficult to tell what exactly we remember and what exactly we don’t and why exactly that happens. We keep meaning to try and find some rhyme or reason to the decisions around here, we really do, but we keep forgetting to do that too. It’s complicated.  [FEATURED TAGS: Taren Steele, Vicca, Risque News Insight]

Vicca and Taren, very tan.

"It was chucking it down on Tyneside and the St. James’ Park pitch was slippery, so there were at least the odd hideously mistimed tackle and some handbags at ten paces, but that was as exciting as it got." … That’s a quote out of a detective story by Mark Billingham, and if you’re a murder mystery fan and have never read anything written by a modern writer from the U.K. you should put it on your list. You get sentences like this and although all of the words seem to be in English they surely do have a completely convoluted meaning, at least to us "Yanks." Actually the characters all seem to live with a rather pervasive despondency too, but that’s probably outside of where we’re going today. Rather we address another set of baffling decisions as we begin our look with D.Minion on the set of Fem: Staccato. We’re not positive any of this is quite cricket, come to think of it. [FEATURED TAGS: Marlie Moore, Samantha Ryan, Karlie Montana, Lorraine Sisco, Lena Nicole, Michael Ninn, D.Minion]

Pockets. Pizza. And a dildo. Welcome to porn life.

The best thing about "spring" cleaning has to be that occasionally some nifty things "fall" into your hands that you’d forgotten about. Now certainly "summer" better than others, but "winter" …. Well, honestly we lost it there. Winter just doesn’t seem to fit in anywhere, and since the (alleged) leader around here grew up in Colorado, he considers himself somewhat of an expert on the topic. Rather more to point we decided to take a look at Musa acuminata, but then we decided not to monkey around with that either. Suffice it to say that "tropical" has its place too, even though it’s not technically a season. [FEATURED TAGS: Emmanuelle]

When an old dog gets up off the porch and comes your direction, you’re never really sure just what kind of reception you’re going to get. Now he may be friendly, or he may just have learned that foolish people for some reason trust a dog that’s wagging its tail and will therefore let him get close enough to bite. What does this have to do with today’s post? … Well, nothing really, but every once in awhile it seems good to throw in a little country wisdom into a porn site it seems to us. And more of Dee naked, this time with Charmane Star? Hell, y’all, that there’s wisdom in any country.  [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, Charmane Star, Michael Ninn, D.Minion]

This here would be Charmane.

Oddly, the first time many of you probably read the little notice below was YESTERDAY, which wasn’t exactly the intention. Somebody thought somebody put it on the server, and somebody else thought somebody different put it on the server, yada, yada, yada. The point being here, of course, that NOBODY checked. (We also had to explain the difference between "schlepping" and "schtupping" when we got back, if any of you did happen to notice that yesterday.) … Anyway they had some grand plans here, y’all, they really did. The first thing they were going to do was the D.Minion account from the entire shoot of Becoming Georgia Adair, Self Portrait – all 600 or so pictures – all taken back in the days before digital cameras got really good and using Photoshop to "improve" them was actually quite a bit of a challenge. And then they –"got stuck" – I think was the technical explanation I’ve heard most often. Well we’ll start with some good ol’ Dee at KSEX insights while we try to figure out what’s going on. You’ve all been on vacation, right? You know how long it takes for the stress at work to hit you after you get back from vacation? … Not very long. Sorry about that.
