Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

8/28/11	The best way to test the skills of a person trying to do a new job tends to be comparing the way they do the exact same thing as someone else has done. Like most philosophical principles, however, it tends to be difficult to test, since setting up the “exact” same task can be functionally impossible. Life simply has too many variables. Fortunately for us at risque.com some constants do exist, and we have people who have been around long enough to remember them. We’d never be so boring as to attempt a mere “Apples to Apples” analysis, however. Nope. We much prefer the “Cytherea to Cytherea” algorithm. We’re clever that way. [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea, Missy Monroe, Jenna Presley, Angela Stone, Michael Ninn]
8/27/11	Occasionally in life you find yourself in a situation where your most sophisticated intellectual response follows generally along the lines of, “Huh. That’s odd. I wonder what in the world possessed them to do that.” … And then hopefully you do something worthwhile, like eat chocolate chocolate-chip ice cream or something. Today just might be one of those days, but when you have Shayla LaVeaux, Raquel Devine and various other miscellaneous pretty people to help you with your ruminations, you probably won’t mind very much. You will need to supply your own ice cream, however. We can only do so much. [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux, Raquel Devine, Katsuni, Miko Lee, Olivia Del Rio Video]
8/23/11	Be careful what you wish for. And while we’re on the topic of simple advice that people almost never listen to, you might be careful about the examples you’re setting for others in life. Dedicated (or perhaps more Devious) students might take advantage of an opening to provide some teaching of their own — which the teacher will almost certainly ignore, of course. Could it be that Lessons Learned are not in fact like Bridges Burned; or could it be that “learned” doesn’t really mean what we think it means? … It’s a good thing we don’t do philosophy for a living on risque. It’s hard. … Well, we do “do” hard, but that’s a different story. [FEATURED TAGS: Renee Perez Video, Sabrina Rose Video, Syren Sexton Exclusive Video, 247AdultStars.com, Michael Ninn]
8/20/11	Well a warden didn’t throw a party in the county jail — at least not for anyone we know, which doesn’t say much because we don’t actually know anyone in the country jail — so we had to modify the song allusion to “Jailhouse Walk” for our purposes today. If Elvis had not died back in 1977 he would be 76 now, as all of those people remembering the anniversary of his death kept telling us this week. Of course we responded by pointing out that if Duke Albert of Austria hadn’t died on the same date, he’d be 653 today. None of that has anything whatsoever to do with Cytherea or Katja Kean, however, a fact that probably makes members feel a lot better about coming inside. [FEATURED TAGS: Katja Kean, Cytherea Video, Michael Ninn]
8/17/11	One of the exceptional benefits of having an intelligent, insightful, and interested Membership base stems from the fact that it tends to keep poor, overworked, webmasters focused on task. Of course, should any web minions make an error, a zealous Member might jump upon the oversight, resulting in general feelings of sadness around the office. Over the years we have found a rapid and complete lapse into Denial to be quite a benefit in the recovery process — even if only in the psychological sense. In addition, a quick ratchet into righteous indignation can be helpful. In this case, alas, the intelligent, insightful, and interested Member might actually be correct, so after hours and hours of anguish and pointed despair, we arrived at a fitting Official Response: “Whoops. Dang.” … Honestly descending into proper angst really takes much more devotion and dedicated attention than we were willing to devote to the project. We have many naked women to document; we’re really busy. [FEATURED TAGS: Athena Angel, Shayla LaVeaux Video]
8/14/11	Every once in awhile, no matter how long you’ve been doing something professionally, you can still be surprised — at least if you have fun doing what you do for a living. Differently in this job, most likely, you can accidentally run across a beautiful woman masturbating and it doesn’t result in some mandatory report to Human Resources (a title which takes on an entirely different connotation when you put it in terms of masturbation, actually). Should Aurora Snow be such a woman you might be inclined to comment upon how many people in the country would welcome a little “snow” in their lives right about now. But that wouldn’t be necessary, really. “Beautiful Woman Masturbating” pretty much gets people’s attention without much elaboration. [FEATURED TAGS: Aurora Snow Video, Michael Ninn]
8/13/11	The intricate process of becoming a beautiful model — with professional-level skills — took Anais, well, maybe five or six seconds as it turned out. Some people just seem to be born for the camera. And wouldn’t you know it, we just seem to always have a collection of cameras with us. Ain’t serendipity cool? … Now since this complete (this time) collection of “first time as a professional on camera” photos happened to take place in a fancy bathroom, and since we’re set to the task of reminding everyone to check Shayla.com because Shayla does some bizarre stuff over there, well, this all seemed perfect. Truth be told, though, we honestly can’t remember when an excuse to see Anais (and Shayla) naked came up that didn’t seem perfect. Odd. … [FEATURED TAGS: Anais, Shayla LaVeaux Video]
8/10/11	Chaos surrounds us! France has turned out not to be that reliable of an ally, and people have suddenly realized that the stock market may not be something that we should just play around with on a daily basis. Gosh, who knew? To provide a calming influence, we’re doing a bit of “Dee Constructing” today, providing pithy economic lessons, critical utopian philosophy, and beautiful naked women. Seriously, where can you find a better combination — even on the big ol’ World Wide Web? [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, Inari Vachs, Alektra Blue Video, Jessica Drake Video, Kirsten Price Video, Kaylani Lei Video, Mikayla Mendez Video]
8/6/11	Did you happen to know that a flibbertigibbet refers to what you might more easily recognize as an “airhead” if you tried to have a conversation with one? Now the fact that we’re ruminating upon the vast array of adjectives that have evolved throughout civilization simply to describe stupid people should not worry you at this point. You can just ignore us as usual, and get to the more centered reality of our typical discourse, that being life in the adult movie business. … Yep. Not a flibbertigibbet around here anywhere. We’re a very serious lot. What does “serious” mean again? [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea, Cassidey, Anna Joy, The Four Trailer Video, Michael Ninn]
8/3/11	Kristal called in the other day, very excited about a series of “Wrestling Videos” she’s set to do with our old friend Tanya Danielle. Rather than correct Dear Ms. Summers by pointing out that “video” would probably not be the technically correct term anymore, D.Minion immediately recalled that she had a photo set of Kristal and Tanya from way back, ironically at another time in her life when our Dear Kristal Summers fell into the Eager Beaver category. Granted we probably didn’t correct Kristal because many of us here still use the term “video” to describe a shoot, but it could have been the thought of soon getting to see Kristal and Tanya naked again. That can be very distracting all on its own you know. [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers, Tanya Danielle, Lola, Jade Marcella]

July 2010 Risque | What’s New

Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

7/30/10	Just for the record, if you ever get a new friend in Los Angeles, she should own a ranch in the hills. We happened to be at two such places over the last few days, one of them drinking margaritas, and one of them not drinking margaritas because we just had to bring by our donation for the Pet Rescue Center before getting the heck out of Dodge – because we didn’t want to be stuck late drinking margaritas again. When Pour Me Another Tequila Sheila starts sounding like one of the greatest songs ever written, you should really call it a night. Also you all donate something to your local pet rescue … after reading this right now, naturally. [FEATURED TAGS: Tori Black, Erica McLean]
7/24/10	Did you know that déjà vu has an opposite partner called jamais vu? It means feeling like you’re seeing something that should be familiar for the very first time. Well, Felicity lends us her photographic talents today, and even after having been present on literally thousands of adult movie sets, we found ourselves amazed. People might be surprised to learn that a great many very talented people populate this industry, and not all of them work in front of the camera. Not that we wouldn’t want to see Felicity naked, but that’s another story entirely. [FEATURED TAGS: Megan Foxx, Emy Reyes Video]
7/22/10	To some extent we find ourselves without guidance today as the head guru dude is off working with Cytherea to help get the rest of the elements in line for the launch of her new site, and D.Minion is (we swear) off attending the General Hospital Annual Convention in Los Angeles. Obviously the first decision we understand completely, and the second one baffles us completely. At any rate we have been left to “complete” Maverick’s latest 247AdultStars entry today, and we have done so with our completely typical aplomb. Basically, we complete you. … Nice, isn’t it? [FEATURED TAGS: AdultStars247, Sandie Caine Video, Exclusive Video]
7/18/10	None of us here could find a definitive answer regarding how old a person has to be before they can become an existential, but it does seem like you should probably be older than your typical new porn star. Of course some would argue that women that choose making adult movies as a vocation must by definition hold at least some existential concepts dear, even if they don’t perceive them as such. Others would argue that expressing one’s sexuality openly and without shame indicates rather a strong moral compass and a dedication to individual empowerment. … Then there are those of us that would argue that there’s altogether too much arguing in life already, and so we should really just stop arguing and enjoy the unusual people, like Erica McLean and Megan (“not that one” ) Foxx, that populate the planet. … Also, everyone should have dogs. If everyone had dogs, there would be no war. [FEATURED TAGS: Megan Foxx, Erica McLean]
7/14/10	Feast or Famine. That’s what they say, right? Well, whoever “they” happen to be, “they” certainly hit the nail on the head this time around. All of the sudden everybody here has so many independent projects going on that we actually have a temporary written sheet to help keep track of them all. And computer geeks don’t like writing; that’s a fact. Still according to the Aged Ones in charge writing is actually faster and more efficient sometimes. (Yeah, right.) On the other hand, the crush has given one of the newer team members a chance to do a little investigation of Dee, along with Kinzie Kenner and Yasmine Milan. How bad can that be? As a matter of fact, also according to the Aged Ones, if we let people play with Dee stories once in awhile, they don’t whine nearly as much about workload. Even computer geeks agree with that. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, Kinzie Kenner, Yasmine Milan]
7/9/10	This has all the markings of an interesting few days coming up, as we’re headed into downtown to help Cytherea with her next web content shoot, and then we plan on visiting our first ever “Exxxotica Los Angeles” convention. Usually we go to “Erotica Los Angeles” which would obviously be a completely different gathering (as you can tell by the completely different name), but AVN decided not to have “Erotica” this year (not that they really told anyone or anything, but we’re not bitter). Then we’re going to be on set for a couple of days with Erica McLean where presumably we will learn that on occasion pigs do indeed fly. Cytherea has chimed in further to help everyone pass the time in our absence with a blast from her past we’ve entitled “A Cy and a Thigh High Sigh” – simply because we’re weird that way. And if you’re familiar with Cytherea at all, you understand completely that we use the term “blast” here in a literal sense. The Geeks will be here doing their Geek Things, though, and after perusing today’s commentary, you’ll likely understand a bit more – and be quite happy doing so. [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea Video]
7/6/10	Just to be sure we get everyone mentioned, because they do bop all over this “socializing” story here, it was (in order of Marty’s Photo Page Appearance) Nicki Hunter, Jenna Haze, Sara Sloane, Misty Stone, Belladonna, Bobbi Star, Kirsten Price, Savanna Samson, Joanna Angel, and one bodaciously cute Production Assistant named Mandie hanging around on this day, but Tori Black, Kayden Kross and Kagney Lynn Karter didn’t get there until very late, so we have to save them for the next installment. Of course we still have plenty to cover (or uncover) today, so we’re not overly sad. Also, if you’re a Member here you know how much extra credit counts, so you might think about boning up on Kenny Rogers trivia and Greek Mythology. That’s probably not the type of “boning up” you expected here, right? [FEATURED TAGS: Nicki Hunter, Jenna Haze, Sara Sloane, Misty Stone, Belladonna, Bobbi Star, Kirsten Price, Savanna Samson, Joanna Angel]
7/2/10	The current favorite for the Local LA Area Bumper Sticker contest we keep perpetually in motion around here reads, “Where am I going, and why am I in this hand basket?” Now you shouldn’t read too much into the fact that we’re talking a bit about AVN today, and if you do read something into it anyway, we can assure you that we plan on denying everything. As a matter of fact, that turns out to be a pretty good plan for life in general. Feel free to try it yourself. If nothing else, it annoys the dickens out of most people, and that’s always fun. [FEATURED TAGS: Felicity]

Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

3/30/10	We called this entry about Tenaya “The Heart of Talk and Stroll” — well — because we’re just weird that way. In addition, we will occasionally plug 80’s bands because — well — honestly we have no idea. We can’t figure that one out ourselves most of the time, but it presumably makes somewhat more sense than the Rodney Carrington references you’ll also find in these pages. Nonetheless, when you’re showing a bit of Tenaya’s spectacular private life, nobody’s really going to read the title anyway, chances are. If you do read, however, you’ll learn even more about the lovely lass. Also, you’ll learn to enjoy words like nonetheless. [STAR TAGS: Tenaya]
3/24/10	Apparently they changed a flat tire, saw lots and lots of old friends that happen to make adult movies for a living, and ate fast foot. That would be the seriously abridged version of Lon’s Adult Entertainment Expo experience this year. However, if you have been fortunate enough to become a Member of any of the Risqué Commune avenues, you know how much we hate doing things too quickly when it comes to any adult behavior, so you can once again rest assured that we’ve provided insight and illustration you simply won’t find anywhere else. We prefer to think that other people all get it wrong, if you’re wondering how that often seems to be the case here. [STAR TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Rayveness, Kylie Ireland, Jessica Drake, Monique Alexander, Julia Ann, Ginger Lynn, Kaylani Lei, Kirsten Price, Nina Hartley, Stormy Daniels, Cytherea Video, Exclusive Video]
3/19/10	Purists among us might point out that we should probably have uploaded this particular “Celebrate the Irish” post a couple of days ago, but there are just way too many people out there dedicated to Tradition simply for the sake of Tradition. Don’t you think? … Consequently we’ve decided to march to our own drummer around here. (There’s a big shock, right?) And just as soon as we manage to find our drummer we’re going to start working out some new routines. You can count on it. … On a completely unrelated note, have you ever noticed that even if you’re not drinking green beer — on the beach — in the heat — after enough of it, all the people still seem to start turning various shades of green? … Science is interesting. [STAR TAGS: Nikki Rhodes Video]
3/16/10	Recently it came to our attention that we do not say, “Oh, Bollocks!” nearly enough around the office. Consequently we have resolved to remedy this situation just as quickly as possible. (Technically we had to first resolve to have resolutions on days other than New Year’s, but why get bogged down in details really?) … And speaking of details, Maverick shares a great many of them today in his “Day 2 of the AEE” post on 247AdultStars. Sadly we didn’t actually find any “nonsense” or “rubbish” — which seems to be how dictionary.com defines “bollocks” for us — so we couldn’t use the term in the ever-pithy commentary on those posts from our leader. On the upside, the reference source did say that term often has a “vulgar” connotation, and that should be something we have no trouble working with around here. It’s good to have a plan. [STAR TAGS: AdultStars247.com, Adult Entertainment Expo, Lexi Love, Katie Kox, Kayden Kross, Sasha Grey, AJ Bailey, Savanna Samson, Lexi Belle, Bree Olsen, Julia Ann, Exclusive Video]
3/11/10	Some things are just filthy. Have you noticed? Sometimes, it seems, however, this appears to be the goal. Well, it’s good to have a plan, and Audrey Hollander does have a unique way of celebrating her birthday, we’ll give her that. Sometimes D.Minion doesn’t need to do much more than tell it like it was … [STAR TAGS: Lyla Lei, Audrey Hollander, Aurora Snow, Michael Ninn]
3/6/10	You can find many good reasons to live in Los Angeles, but the colorful people have to be at least near the top of every list. In this economy most big cities will have scroungy-looking people on street corners looking for some money for some reason or another. However, in LA last week we saw a guy with a sign that said, “Need $4.01 for a soy latte.” … Across the street from this fellow was another chap with a sign that said, “Gulf War Veteran. Need a WIFE. Will accept cash.” … You gotta love LA. They could never put the “reality” here on television and have anyone believe it. Speaking of which, we give another dose of our “too strange for prime time” reality with an update on Penny Flame and some “Sanity” advice from Dee. Try wrapping your head around that one. [STAR TAGS: Penny Flame Video, Charlie Laine, Monique Alexander]
3/2/10	So here’s the deal: D.Minion gets very, very excited when she gets to go on the road with one of the girls, and so her reports from these adventures tend to ramble a bit. In the piece that follows, we go from puppies to school girls, to the birthdays of 70’s television stars and how to get free lap dances at strip clubs. Consequently, we’ll give you a hint: In the first paragraph there is a picture of Dee. This will be the only picture accompanying the article proper. Just on the off chance that somebody might want to hit that handy-dandy camera icon at the top of the page, and jump to directly to the rest of the photos, that will be useful information to remember. … If you decide to exercise this option, however, and D.Minion ever asks you about it. Lie to her. … That’s what we do. [STAR TAGS: Dee, Kristal Summers]

December 2009 Risque | What’s New

… With appropriate credit to Garth:

Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

12/31/09	Did you know that the term “Blue Moon” technically refers to the second full moon in a given calendar month? Now that pretty much sums up the educational value from a purely scientific perspective, but Maverick chose this last day of 2009 to celebrate his continuing love of breasts (which happens a lot more often than once in a blue moon, as you might know). Given close inspection here, we’re all perfectly prepared to defend the position that Syren Sexton has two characteristics relevant to this discussion that could give one a reminder of full moons, though, and there are, by definition then, two of them in a calendar month, so maybe this all closes out the year quite nicely. Isn’t science fun? [FEATURED TAGS: AdultStars247.com, Syren Sexton Video, Exclusive Video]
12/29/09	Having given it careful consideration, it seemed prudent to finish talking about one convention before we start the next convention in about a week. We should admit, perhaps, that D.Minion happened to be the big proponent of this approach, concerned as she remains with tidiness when it comes to all things porn. Now the fact that we happened to be behind on her Erotica LA coverage probably had nothing to do with that (rather firm, if you want to know the truth) decision. Really. Swear. [FEATURED TAGS: Erotica Los Angeles, Julia Ann, Jessica Drake, Monique Alexander, Tori Black, Christy Canyon, Nicki Hunter, Kirsten Price, Kaylani Lei, Exclusive Video]
12/25/09	If you’re one of those people that think Christmas has become way too commercialized and has thus lost the quaint, family-oriented (if not distinctly religious), meaning behind the holiday … Or if you’re one of those people that think Jesus was just a prophet, and not the Son of God, anyway … Or if you’re one of those people that think that regardless of any of that, h/He was actually born in the summer and hundreds of years later some folks “changed” his birthday to coincide with a distinctly Pagan Celebration surrounding the Winter Solstice … Well, gee, we hope you get all those tough issues figured out so you can be happy again. For our part we’re going to simply wish you all Happy Holidays! And then we’re going to sit peacefully and drink some eggnog. Odds are good there’ll be rum in that eggnog come tonight, actually. [FEATURED TAGS: Taylor Hayes Video]
12/24/09	Elected officials in Washington claim to be giving us all a “gift” this holiday season, and if that’s not enough to terrify any sane U.S. Citizen, then we don’t know what might be. That said, Health Care Reform really does hold an important place in the evolution of any society wishing to grow, and we consider all the grousing about special consideration given to one state simply out of place in reality. We questioned every single person we could get to talk to us over the last few days, and not a single one of them said they would be unwilling to pay not to have to live in Nebraska. … While you mull that little fact over, it seemed an excellent time to hear Holiday Greetings from our British friend – and his friend. [FEATURED TAGS: AdultStars247.com, Syren Sexton Video, Exclusive Video]
12/23/09	We could make polite conversation about the weather, because it seems that the entire country finds itself suffering from a cold spell. Living in Southern California, of course, we need to be careful about that sort of thing, because people here wear hooded sweatshirts and gloves when the temperatures drop below a frigid 60 degrees. Instead, we decided we’d distract everyone with the decidedly not frigid inspection of Kristal Summers and Dee. This ought to jump the room temperature at least 40 or 50 Fahrenheit points we figure, thus giving people in the rest of the country some solace. At least you folks won’t need to turn on the air conditioner. [FEATURED TAGS: KSEX Radio, Dee, Kristal Summers]
12/20/09	How many adult entertainment sites can you think of that occasionally make copious use of footnotes in their articles? Maybe most of them have a sufficiently narrow focus that makes the use of a literary “aside” unnecessary, but a broader perspective (pardon the pun, if you’re old enough to understand it) honestly does make life more enjoyable. Along with our trademark dual-color font approach to industry reporting, we’ve figured out that we have over the years developed quite a few ways to convey said literary aside. … We don’t mind rambling so much as confusing rambling. You need to keep that distinction in mind in life as you meet various entertaining people – or simply strange ones. [FEATURED TAGS: Chasey Lain Video]
12/16/09	So we’re on set with Ron Jeremy on Monday and he lets everyone know that from now on we should not be calling Tiger Woods a Tiger, since he’s clearly a Cheetah. (For what it’s worth, Ron specifically denied responsibility for the joke, maybe because that’s fair, or maybe because Ron specializes in making audiences groan yet another way these days.) … At any rate, you’ll probably be happy to know that we decided to focus on Chasey Lain today, rather than Mr. Jeremy, although we did manage to tuck in a brief discussion of humor as an art form, and even a little more Tiger, er Cheetah, Woods. Whatever.
12/11/09	We’re gearing up (and wardrobing up, if you want to get technical about it) for the upcoming round of “Parties Disguised as a Convention” in Las Vegas next month with a little exclusive retrospective on how Kristal Summers and Dee chose to “relax” at an earlier similar event. We’re also unveiling yet another update to the navigational system in the Members’ Area, just so you know. Will it make it much easier to get around and much less cluttered while you’re trying to do so? The Geeks here say that it will. Will it encourage you to take advantage of the now decade-plus volume of archival wonderfulness at the Risqué Commune? The Geeks here say that it will. … Will it make us seem any less bizarre than you may have considered us before? Absolutely not. [FEATURED TAGS: Chasey Lain Video, Daisy Marie Video, Isabella Sky Video]
12/7/09	Virtually a decade to the day since delineating our desires, we deploy the First Official Members’ Search Engine across the Risqué Commune. … We decided that December 7th might be the ironically perfect day to launch such a venture, in celebration of Chasey Lain’s birthday, an early risqué client, of course, and certainly not because of that other December 7th reason. Honestly we’re hoping that bit of historic misery does not portend anything at all in our circumstance. We’re a tad intrepid about this whole thing, as it turns out, as the effort could have the impact of foisting our foibles to the forefront. Suddenly it has become amazingly easy to uncover heretofore obscure links to very old stories, and it remains to be seen whether or not that constitutes a good thing. At least we’re left with our alliteration. We can always grimace eloquently. [FEATURED TAGS: Jelena Jensen Video, Charlie Laine Video, Jesse Jane Video, Andie Valentino Video, Kirsten Price Video]
12/5/09	Presumably one can become desensitized to anything. If you can believe detective novels, law enforcement officers begin to simply accept how bad human beings can be toward each other. An Emergency Medical Technician must develop some ability to accept the gore they might see as a regular part of life, and just get on with their jobs. Even lawyers eventually learn to accept one another. It seems to happen, after all. Similarly, in the sex business, our threshold for outrageous behavior must by definition expand as we go along. D.Minion focuses on this concept in her on-the-set report today, or maybe we’re just reading too much into it. Shock can do that to a person. [FEATURED TAGS: Tyla Wynn, Roxetta, Venus, Nicki Hunter, Michael Ninn]
12/2/09	As it turns out, we can really antagonize some people without even meaning to. Apparently the admittedly subjective opinion of our leader here on the topic of porn star management has reminded some industry people that they do in fact know how to read. Well, good for them, we say. Reading is important. And while we’re compiling the list of things we might wish to pursue in this suddenly intriguing vein, we did ask the aforementioned leader if he wished to apologize to those affronted by the comments in the last post. “Sure,” he said, “tell them I’m sorry they got so offended.” (We really can’t make these things up.) [FEATURED TAGS: Jenna Haze Video, Sasha Grey Video]
