9/30/08 | Members of Congress have apparently forgotten the story of The Boy Who Cried Wolf! You see, after a while, people just don’t believe you anymore. And that sucks. On the upside, and true to his nature, Maverick with 247AdultStars today, has decided not to worry about any “Economic Crisis” and instead focus on very fine breasts. Now we’re not sure if having everyone take some time out of their chaos to just appreciate boobs, but we are sure that it certainly can’t hurt anything. And that would be a pleasant change. You see, around here we remember The Boy story, and we also remember Chicken Little. Apparently our “leaders” aren’t really even smarter than a first grader. Jeff Foxworthy cannot be impressed.

9/27/09 | And now we’ll return you to your regularly scheduled nudity. … We love it when we get to say that. … We’re not positive, but probably most jobs out there don’t provide a useful outlet for this particular sentence, and that seems a shame really. Also most jobs probably don’t have Rayveness, Keri Windsor, Vicca, and Shayla LaVeaux as visual “aides” as it were. All in all, this job has a lot going for it. [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux, Rayveness, Keri Windsor, Vicca, Sindee Coxx] |
9/26/08 | Occasionally around here we sometimes do things like we said we’d do. Of course other than meaning that none of us has ever worked in Congress, that doesn’t mean that much. Still, we did manage to find the inside scoop on the Inari Vachs party that Mav mentioned on the Members’ Message Board, and that makes him happy. Not that we really care all that much if the Brits are happy all the time, but less whiny always seems a bonus. We should be nice to them, actually, because a great many European states border another country, and so that makes a whole lot of Europeans experts on foreign policy. We need those folks around. [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, AVN Awards, Inari Vachs, Exclusive Video, D.Minion] |
9/23/08 | Lon sometimes has a plan. However, Lon occasionally does not have a plan, and this generally occurs when he’s about to spend quality time with various beautiful women. Then Lon’s too concerned about his equipment to form much of a plan. … Fortunately for all of us, Lon’s worrisome equipment in this case turns out simply to be a new digital camera. Now you know it’s safe to enter. [FEATURED TAGS: Erotica LA, Jessica Drake, Stormy Daniels, Miyoko Video, Exclusive Video, D.Minion] |
9/19/08 | So we have a 700 Billion Dollar problem and the President says, “Oops. Those darned Wall Street People …. But we’re winning the war. Did I mention?” … Granted it has been some time since Econ 101, but it seems like actually printing money to solve a problem doesn’t turn out to be a very good long-range solution. Still, it is America and we can’t have a whole bunch of rich people all of the sudden becoming poor people. That just won’t do. … On the upside, we’re avoiding the economic issues of the time and using D.Minion’s view of “Innocence” — perhaps as a metaphor for its loss, but still …. We will say here, though, that Latin class was just about as long ago as Econ 101, but maybe we should try to remember this little diddy: nosce te ipsum. Know thyself. … Or at least try to pay attention to history. … [FEATURED TAGS: Alexis Love, Amber Rayne, Jamie Elle, Michael Ninn, D.Minion] |
9/14/08 | Philosophy and Economics provide our focus today, at least if you ignore the whole “Kristal Summers naked and doing a Cam Show” thing. Now we don’t want to criticize over a century and a half of higher education standards in the United States, but if more professors used visual aids like Kristal Summers, we all might learn a lot more easily. At the very least we wouldn’t miss class just because we don’t feel well, or we’re too tired, or we’re hung over, or any such silly reason. [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers Video, Exclusive Video] |
9/9/08 | Don’t you just love a good palindrome? You know what makes a really fun one? … 41-14 … Now that may not be up there for most of you with “Madam in Eden I’m Adam” but if you happen to be a Monday Night Football fan (well, and you don’t happen to be from Oakland), then 41-14 seems like one of the best palindromes you’ve ever seen. Of course none of this has anything at all to do with Inari Vachs, or anything else we’re talking about today, truth be told. But if you’ve been a Bronco fan for very long at all, you know that you’d better take your “happy mornings” when you can get them. We should mention that you might think carefully about reading something called “Wear for Thou Art” , however. And if you make it all the way through today’s post, you’ll also learn to be careful what you wear around us: We take pictures. [FEATURED TAGS: Inari Vachs, D.Minion] |
9/6/08 | So we’re back from yet another super-secret movie shoot, and this one we really can’t talk about. The allegations and law suits are flying back and forth like the ball in an Olympic ping pong tournament, and we don’t feel much like being the net (if we might continue the metaphor). However, all remains far from lost as we can talk about a dear individual, Taren Steele. What with all the recent publicity that Governor Palin has given “moms” in general, it seemed appropriate — and a lot safer. [FEATURED TAGS: Taren Steele Video, Exclusive Video, Risque News Insight] |
9/1/08 | In honor of Kristal’s Birthday (!) today, Maverick has been learning about the power of the Press Badge. This time he takes us behind the scenes into an “adult industry only” party at a London club. As you might expect, he didn’t deviate that much from his usual pursuits, as he basically went in search of large breasts. (There’s the “honor of Kristal Summers” part, in case you didn’t notice.) Interestingly, the British (and visiting) Breasts seemed to pale in comparison, understanding of course that your basic Southern California breast actually “tans in comparison” to most others. Still, that’s never diminished our interest in them. We can leer regardless of skin tone. We’re talented that way. [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars.com] |

Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff
5/30/08 | We love summer time around here. It brings wonderful experiences each and every year. … Long days and warm evenings. Homemade ice cream. Picnics. Vacations, short and long. The return of the annual curiosity about how in the world a company ever managed to bring “Lawn Darts” to the market. … And maybe even boating, baseball, or perhaps volleyball. … For us, it always brings a treat superior even to all of these: INTERNS! … And interns are not only thrilled to be here, but they just love searching and organizing archives in the “Content Closet” that seems always a bit overflowing around the office. … And then they find stuff. … And occasionally they find a little lesbian art with Keri Windsor and Ava Vincent and a few videos documenting a – call it solo reflection – by Wendy Divine. … And what an appropriate name for this time of year, right? Slurpees for everyone! [FEATURED TAGS: Keri Windsor, Ava Vincent, Wendy Divine Video, Exclusive Video] |
5/24/08 | You may have noticed that on rare (sort of) occasions we just can’t seem to keep ourselves from interjecting editorial comment (or caveats) into a particular situation. Well, as we sometimes do, we thought we’d take a very brief moment and offer Dear Maverick some things upon which he may wish to ruminate. … OK. Well if you want to be technical about it we’ve never actually done this before, but we might do it again, so we’re still going with “sometimes” here. We do what we have to, after all. Or else we do what seems fun. We forget. [FEATURED TAGS: Renee Perez, Exclusive Video, Maverick] |
5/23/08 | Oh, dear. Maverick seems to be ramping up his enthusiasm for his next trip over the Atlantic, and so he’s suddenly wrapped up his coverage of his last trip over the Atlantic. Consequently we have a whole bunch of AEE pictures, including some visual evidence that porn stars don’t always precisely follow the “rules” of a venue exactly. Don’t you just love independent women? [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars, Adult Entertainment Expo, Daisy Marie, Nautica Thorn, Tera Wray, Calian Curtis, Jana Jordan, Renee Perez, Carmen Luvana, Lexi Love, Exclusive Video] |
5/22/08 | If you want to know the truth, we’re sure we saw a Pussy Kat. Comic references aside (although that’s admittedly a little tough for us most of the time), in the process of this D.Minion Interaction, we also see Katsumi (now “Katsuni” because of some stupid law suit), Mia Smiles, Penny Flame, Monica Sweetheart, and Trinity – whom we think all still get to use their own names. Although we will also admit that we should probably care a lot more than we do, it turns out that when we see beautiful naked women performing for us, we don’t often think of their names first. We’ll work on it by continuing to look at beautiful naked women and trying to remember what we’re doing wrong. [FEATURED TAGS: Katsumi, Mia Smiles Video, Penny Flame, Monica Sweetheart, Trinity, Michael Ninn, Exclusive Video, D.Minion] |
5/16/08 | You’ve probably heard that a little knowledge can be a very dangerous thing. Well, we don’t want to cast aspersions on someone who has to live in perpetual gloom, eat sausages full of blood, and thinks coffee is really tea (well, we might want to), but Maverick has been learning about video compression for the web. Consequently, suddenly he’s now got all kind of formats over there at 247AdultStars. Now you need to realize that he has the benefit of being able to share with us the first legitimate shower adventures of the delectable Cate Harrington, who apparently had a soiled “personal toy” because she decided it needed a shower too. Probably Mav just likes practicing with her clips a lot. We’ll tell him we understand … and to at least not eat that sausage. Bleh! [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars, Cate Harrington Video, Exclusive Video] |
5/15/08 | It’s a Double-Feature Day in D.Minion land as she lays out another new KSEX story as well as a new “Spice TV’s The Nooner” story. Now, true, both of these formerly dandy ventures have now deceased, but they remain near and dear to our hearts – particularly the parts where Dee’s naked. Unlike the concept of “Double Features” Dee being naked never goes out of style. [FEATURED TAGS: KSEX Radio, Dee, D.Minion] |
5/12/08 | Well we’ve been doing a bunch of boring code stuff that most of you well never even notice, but it does tend to make the site function better, and so that’s good. You need to do these things every once in a while. It’s not sexy, but it’s true. For his part, Maverick has been busy shooting much more along the sexy lines, as we introduce a little more of Cate Harrington today … honestly just because she’s a lot more interesting than Big Ben, if you want to know the truth. We have more of Mav’s discovery on the horizon too, but it’s never too soon to start with pretty women – that’s our philosophy around here as you’ve probably figured out. [FEATURED TAGS: Cate Harrington, Maverick] |
5/5/08 | It’s “Cinco De Mayo” which technically means “the fifth of May” but apparently it’s a reason to celebrate. Now according to D.Minion it’s sort of a Mexican Independence Day, “but it really isn’t” … and that just goes to show that former teachers can be annoyingly precise. Still, it did seem a reason to celebrate some degree of multi-cultural happiness, not that we’ve ever really needed much of a reason to do that. Actually any reason to contact Lorraine Sisco (She’s German, you know.) pretty much works for us and we’re perfectly willing to admit that. So check out what we’ve learned today (or at least what we’ve theorized at this point), and then go out and find some really good chile verde near you. Feel free to add mucho cerveza. [FEATURED TAGS: Lorraine Sisco, Faith Leon, Exclusive Video] |
5/4/08 | Did you know that England now employs Imperial Storm Troopers to assure its civil defense? And nobody there has a cell phone that they actually talk on, they just use them to send text messages? And did you know that all British women take showers with pyrex dildos instead of scrubbing brushes? … Well, you have to read between the lines a bit today to figure all that out, but we’re quite certain those are the lessons intended. How could we be wrong? [FEATURED TAGS: Cate Harrington Video, Exclusive Video, Maverick] |
5/1/08 | Mayday! Mayday! Danger Will Robinson! … Your mother may be sleeping with Dustin Hoffman! … We asked D.Minion if this was a good way to start the introduction, since she made a point of telling us that today does in fact happen to be May Day, but she said we missed the point. Dang it. We hate it when that happens. To be more direct, we suppose, we could mention that we are literally “Building to a Crescendo” today, but you would only appreciate our dazzling wit were you actually a member and thus able to read today’s entry. Let’s face it: After DM shot down our approach we basically just decided to write enough to make it seem like we’re paying attention up here. You may be sensing a theme this time around. Oh, and we do use foreshadowing a couple of times. That’s always an entertaining little literary diversion – as are Faith Leon, Audrey Hollander, Kellemarie, and Ms. Lorraine Sisco, by the way.

1/31/07 | Haiku, you may see with a gasp, Hey, iambic pentameter was too tough for us too, but the barrage of Member Submissions on the convention has commenced – weirdly, via SteveD. That seemed appropriate somehow. Did you know it’s really hard to fit the phrase “iambic pentameter” into iambic pentameter without using those pesky triplet things? Gosh, the stuff you learn on a porn site ….

1/24/07 | Here’s a shirt you can’t wear just everywhere: “ASS. The New Vagina.” … This and other observations come through today in the first “Dear Readers Speak” in a couple of years it seems like. Sometimes the uninitiated are so darned cute. And sometimes they’re a bit painful in their honesty. It’s interesting how “regular” people look at an event like the AVN Awards Show, and it’s equally interesting (although certainly quite a bit more odd) how many pictures our own “three amigos” seemed to take of each other. Fortunately they at least had the courtesy to include various fetching women in the photographs too. In the midst of “plowing through” we seem to have wandered down a diversion. We love that. [FEATURED TAGS: AVN Awards, Adult Entertainment Expo, Kristal Summers, Heather Vuur, Heather Vandeven, Belladonna, Mika Tan, Kylie Ireland, Julia Ann] |
1/20/07 | We’re taking baby steps here, not so much because of the Bill Murray and Richard Dreyfuss movie but because that seemed like a reasonable way to start our assault on the current queue. Consequently we decided to open with a nice little D.Minion story about getting ready for the AVN Awards show this year … with Heather Vuur, Audrey Hollander, Faith Leon, Monica Mayhem, Ruby Flame, Lorraine Sisco, and of course Dee and Kristal. There were some boys there too, but who really notices them with this cast of females? We did read a wonderfully pithy quote in a Lawrence Block book that would fit right in here. Speaking of a particularly attractive female character Mr. Block described her as sending off “a subliminal message that said, Sleep with me and you will die. But it will be worth it.” If you haven’t read the Bernie Rhodenbarr “Burglar” series by Lawrence Block, by the way, you’re missing out on some very funny and entertaining times. While you’re checking Amazon, though, you might look at these pictures and Mav’s video. That’s a fine way to spend some time too.

1/15/07 | Hey, we lived through it! (Of course “lived” would be a relative term here.) You know what’s a really bad idea? Reading a Steven King (technically Richard Bachman, though) book about a grueling and ultimately fatal competition whose only characteristic happens to be that it involves lots and lots of walking, precisely while you’re attending a convention that also necessarily involves lots and lots of walking. This is a bad idea. While we’re valiantly trying to make some semblance of order of the 2,000+ pictures, a couple hours of video, multiple audio files, and more autographs then we’ve even begun to count, we thought we’d share a little joy that can come from a virus. Hey, weirdness begets weirdness, and if the Risqué site doesn’t prove that theory for you, then you haven’t really been paying attention. On the upside, we’ve recently had many opportunities to use an almost forgotten phrase, “My dogs are barkin’ now.” And if you know what that means, while you may not be a Redneck yourself, you certainly know at least one. [FEATURED TAGS: Keana Moire’, Twigy, Zoe, Nella Norrington, Exclusive Video] |
1/8/07 | You knew, of course, that we would not be allowed to leave the LA area and head for Las Vegas before we had accomplished DM’s task of adding the Essentially Juli AND Shayla Double-DVD to the catalogue, right? Well, we did that, and then we set up some things to keep you occupied for the next week as we converge (from many points of the world, truth be told) on the annual Adult Entertainment Expo for the next week. Consider it a bonus for today, and then consider coming with us next year. You really haven’t lived until you’ve seen some drunk and crying XXX performer, devastated because she didn’t win the “Best Anal Sex Scene” Award. What a surreal world in which we exist. [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux Video, Keri Windsor Video, Juli Ashton, Anais, Dee, Kristal Summers, Exclusive Video] |
1/6/07 | Guess what follows “Day One” of something, and even sometimes only a few days later. Correct. … “Day Two” …. So we really needn’t even give you much of a build up here, because certainly you’ve already committed Day One on the Set (of Facade) with D.Minion to memory and all that has been keeping you from sleeping is wondering what in the world happened on the dialogue day of the movie. Well, you can in fact read about that today, but you’ll have to wade through all the sex scenes with Mika Tan, Daisy Marie, and Alexis Love in order to find this crucial information. It’s a good thing you’re committed to your education; we respect that. [FEATURED TAGS: Mika Tan, Daisy Marie, Alexis Love, Michael Ninn, D.Minion, Risque News Insight] |
1/3/07 | We learned a fun fact about the entertainment industry today. The cost of shooting ONE episode of the formerly famous TV show, Maimi Vice, actually cost more money than the budget for the entire YEAR of Miami’s actual Vice Squad. Hmm. … Well, nobody said that the entertainment industry makes sense, and so we quickly gloss over our bit of insight into that and look at some pictures of beautiful Dee, gracing the shores of Jamaica. We figure that’s understandable entertainment for pretty much any industry. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee] |
1/1/07 | It occurred to us that peering into a Facade might be a dandy way to start the New Year, considering the business we’re in and all. We didn’t really give that enough thought considering all the football on TV today though, as even just Day One on the Set with D.Minion turned out to be one of those “thousands of words and 225 pictures” sort of DM days. Ah, well we technically made it as a New Year’s Day post anyway, assuming you happen to live in the Pacific Time Zone at least. Some times you just need to channel some old country songs as you go through life. Those of you that remember Bobby Bare will understand this: “[We] got ‘er, boy, and that’s what makes [us] THE WINNER.” Whew ….

10/31/05 | In the manner of traditional holiday pursuits, we seek to make some hollow weenies today. Being somewhat distinguished from the norm in this festive tradition, though, it may be possible that we have approached this endeavor with a somewhat unusual slant. Well … that happens. As it happens too, though, sometimes very simple tasks turn out to be the most entertaining. Ain’t life grand? [FEATURED TAGS: Audrey Hollander, Michael Ninn] |
10/28/05 | We came up with the title “Podiatric Ponderings” so it would seem logical that we would have to foot the bill. … That pretty much sums it up for today, folks. Sure, we talk about Socrates, and the nature of the XXX business, and even Zaphod Beeblebrox, but basically the philosophy pales in comparison with the tanned skins of the beautiful women present. And doesn’t that just about sum up life? [FEATURED TAGS: Juli Ashton Video, Krisz Video, Shaena Steele Video, Exclusive Video] |
10/25/05 | As we were going through all of the completed files, those being of the type ready to put up for the world to see (well, technically not The World, per se, but at least the world of Members) we noticed that we suddenly found ourselves in the midst of a Dee crunch. We’ve been having a lot of Dee, and we worried that we might be overdoing it somewhat. Then we sat down and rested for a bit. Too much Dee? And this time with Kristal Summers?! Riiiiiight …. We just kind of play them as they lie around here, as many of you know, and that keeps us … um … markedly above par. (Don’t you hate it when a metaphor goes astray?) Let’s consider a Dancing Endeavor with Dee as we consider our metaphorical faux pas … pas’s … pass’zzzz … Well, you know … [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, Kristal Summers, D.Minion] |
10/23/05 | You know what’s worse than your team losing in the last 10 seconds? Being in such a hurry to get the post up in order to watch the game that you forget the “New Stuff” link, and THEN having your team lose in the last 10 seconds … by one point … because of a missed field goal … by one of the most accurate field goal kickers in NFL history. OK, so put a technical date of 10/25/05 on this post, because after the proper amount of grieving time, we happened to notice this little clerical error. On the upside, you could have found the post if you happened to check the “Dee” Main Page, and (as you’ve hopefully surmised) you can now check out many, many words detailing Dee, Chloe and Jezabelle Bond on a “mainstream” shoot that makes the use of mirkins look sane. Straight shoots are weird. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, Chloe, Jezebelle Bond, D.Minion] |
10/20/05 | Our conversations about the relative nature of “Innocence” have been going on at the office for about a week. We’ve also learned a few other things that you’ll discover if you decide to read D.Minion’s 2,000+ word essay on the latest Innocence title, this being of the catchy sub-phrase, Wet. Now you may not be overly interested in philosophy, mechanical inclination, or even backgammon, but fortunately we do have Roxy Jezel, Nautica Thorn, and Hillary Scott to distract you. Oh, and we have conjugating copulation and peacocks for dessert. Bon Appétit … [FEATURED TAGS: Roxy Jezel, Nautica Thorn, Hillary Scott, Michael Ninn, D.Minion] |
10/15/05 | So the hectic pace around here lately has led to way too many episodes of fast food and pizza delivery. We started realizing that we were probably lacking in some important vitamins, and unless somebody recently changed the four basic food groups to be Triscuits, Beef Jerky, Skittles, and Beer, we might be missing some other things on the nutritional scale too. Then we realized that we’d been lacking Dee stories as well. Obviously we decided that concepts of “Good Health” remain clearly relative, and then we sent D.Minion out for more beer. Dee, happily, happens to be present and accounted for today, as we continue to work on our “horrible warning” goal … =) [FEATURED TAGS: Dee Video, Monique Alexander, JJ Holly (Kirsten Price), Exclusive Video, Michael Ninn, D.Minion, Risque News Insight] |
10/12/05 | Don’t you love words to live by? “If you can’t be a good example, at least you can serve as a horrible warning.” That’s what I learned in a book I was reading recently. At then outside the Adult Video News offices I noticed a bumper sticker that highlighted a Voltaire quote, saying, “Those that can convince you of absurdities can get you to commit atrocities.” All in all it’s been a pretty deep week, it seems to me. OK. That’s pretty much it, although you can look at some pictures if you want. This would be another one of those entries where I’d skip the words if I were you. We only have so much time in the day: We should spend it carefully. Oooooh … we are deep today.

10/9/05 | This is a picture of Sunny Lane in the foreground and Justine Joli being quirky in the background. Unfortunately, this is not a day for Justine Joli, other than in this particular photograph (which gets bigger inside, fortunately). On the upside, we do have a lot of Innocence under discussion today, and we use lots of visual aids to accomplish the goal. Basically, it makes for a “Sunny” outlook. [FEATURED TAGS: Sunny Lane, Audrey Hollander, Bobbie Blair, Jordan Fleiss, Avena Lee, Michael Ninn, D.Minion] |
10/8/05 | Here’s the story of some lovely ladies … but they about as far from “Brady” as one can get while still being Homo sapien, probably. You can, though, learn about some Ancient Egyptian “herstory” and some interesting local practices near Anais’ home town. It really might be best to just look at the 150 pictures, come to think of it. Who needs morals to a story these days anyway? [FEATURED TAGS: Anais, Michael Ninn] |
10/5/05 | Today might be a special day, or it might not be. Today might be a special day for someone whose name we can’t tell you, but it might rhyme with “truli” … er … “truly” …. And we might be in trouble for mentioning it, but we might not be too, and that’s always been worth the risk for us. Always remember that’s it’s easier to ask forgiveness than permission. (Damn, but she’s pretty, isn’t she? … Sucking up doesn’t hurt anything either.) [FEATURED TAGS: Juli Ashton, Exclusive Video] |
10/1/05 | Here’s something that seems like good advice: “Let us not to the marriage of true minds admit impediments.” Of course, it assumes you understand both the literal definition of impediments as well as the psychological concept of true minds. This could be a problem. Gosh. Instead of really icky educational stuff we’re thinking that Angel Cassidy Exposing herself might be a fine diversion. We’ve read some captivating things in our time, and we’re pretty sure that none of this even gets to be in the (admittedly subjective) category of beautiful women naked. You know, that just might be the trouble with too narrow a definition of educational, come to think of it. [FEATURED TAGS: Angel Cassidy, Anais, Michael Ninn] |
