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.

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.)

March 2008 Risque | What’s New
… With appropriate credit to Garth:
Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff
3/29/08 | 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. [FEATURED TAGS: Audrey Hollander, Holly Wellin, Stacy Thorn, Nicki Hunter, Marie Luv, Michael Ninn, Exclusive Video, D.Minion, Risque News Insight] |
3/26/08 | 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] |
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] |
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] |
3/15/08 | 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] |
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] |
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] |
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] |
3/4/08 | 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.

November 2005 Risque | What’s New
… With appropriate credit to Garth:
Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff
11/26/05 | We have, you may have noticed, perhaps a slight tendency toward the insouciant. Believing fully in the value of the irreverent, though, we’ve nonetheless somehow managed to offend sufficiently few individuals to still be around a full decade after venturing into the now antiquated BBS form of the Internet. Well, things have a tendency to keep moving along, and the value of this retrospective potential spawned the last post of our “Thanksgiving Week, 2005.” We had one remaining D.Minion story for an old compatriot, and we decided this would be a good time to use it. So we did. Hey, once we finally decide something, at least we get right with the program. By the way, if you ever hear us plan on putting up a post every day for a week, no matter what our benevolent intentions, will someone please call a doctor? Someone’s clearly very ill at the office. Dang … this was almost like have a job or something …. Eeek! [FEATURED TAGS: Devinn Lane, Wanda Curtis, Nicole Sheridan, D.Minion] |
11/25/05 | So today’s one of those days you’re supposed to be sitting around remembering the 70’s commercial: “I can’t believe I ate the whole thing.” Well, maybe that’s what you’re supposed to be doing. What you’re probably doing is sitting around remembering how many variations on a turkey theme you’re going to have to go through to get rid of all of the leftovers and swearing you’re having pizza for Christmas dinner this year. Enter Taren Steele. Now you really don’t need to say much more than that, as we’ve found it a fairly useful phrase for completely reorganizing whatever train of thought you happen to be on. Enter Taren Steele. Yep. That about does it … [FEATURED TAGS: Taren Steele Video, Exclusive Video] |
11/24/05 | Now you’ve got your basic “history” and you’ve got some ever-more-interesting “herstory” today, featuring some of the very early days of a Risqué Business. Now that wouldn’t be all that captivating perhaps, but we do get a chance to show off the early work of Alexis DeVell and Shayla LaVeaux, although I don’t recall either of them “working” too hard during this particular trip come to think of it. Ah, well … think of it as our thanks to you, seeing as how we’re almost always giving. [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux Video, Exclusive Video, Risque News Insight] |
11/23/05 | Michael’s finally got a new home for Ninn Worx, so he’s happy. And when Maverick sees today’s post about Kristal Summers’ Sensitivity Training, he’s going to die, but at least he’ll die happy. And D.Minon’s happy as long as everyone else it happy. And tomorrow we get to see Santa Claus in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, so what’s not to be happy about? Look at it this way: If the breast picture below made you happy, you can continue in the same vein … sort of. [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers, D.Minion] |
11/22/05 | We’re continuing our thankful ways today with a look back at Dee – before she had her own show on Playboy/Spice TV, and before she had her own show twice a week on KSEX. It’s a Night Calls sort of a post, this being rather of the Night Calls 411 variety. You know, we’re even fairly confident that we can think of at least one anonymous, but faithful, member that will be very thankful for these shots of Nikki Nova and her sidekick Crystal Knight. He may wish to remain anonymous, but you certainly can’t fault his taste in women. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, Crystal Knight, Nikki Nova, D.Minion] |
11/21/05 | Well, it’s the beginning of Thanksgiving Week, and so we thought we’d do some giving of thanks this week. We’ve always thought that if you can’t be clever, you can always just be literal. So we’re starting with Julia Ann because quite honestly Julia came to us near to perfect and she moved on just the same way. It would be nice to think that we had a lot to do with Julia’s success over the years, but that’s just not the case. Julia’s seriously one of the most sincere and caring individuals we’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting and working with, and the fact that she used to spend time naked over at the house just kind of worked as a bonus over the years. Now if you ever happen to see Julia Ann on tour somewhere, be sure and tell her about all of the nice things we’ve said about her, and then see if she’ll get naked for you. Hey … it never hurts to ask. [FEATURED TAGS: Julia Ann, D.Minion] |
11/19/05 | Oops. Juli Ashton and Tiffany Grannath make a quick appearance today, as we’ve once again been baffled by the “regular” Night Calls schedule that Playboy TV promises. Now the Halloween Episode did provide its predictable wackiness, and D.Minion even got a picture of a naked band member this time around, although before you get too excited we should “note” that it happens to be a male, so his member may not be as interesting as you might imagine. That said, we also snuck a secret bonus from last week, in our typically Maverick attitude around here. Without disclosing too much, let’s just say this part will certainly help you get your Roxys off. [FEATURED TAGS: Night Calls, Juli Ashton, Tiffany Granath, Roxy Jezel, Michael Ninn, D.Minion] |
11/13/05 | Not many things are as enjoyable in life as Justine Joli, quite honestly, but Justine Joli Exposed (with Holly Morgan) would have to be in that list. While we’re off for a few days to try to make heads or tails (as it were) out of Michael’s next movie shoot, we thought we’d give you D.Minion’s take on one of his past ones. Hey, if you have to kill time, Justine sounds like a fine and dandy way to do it. Who knew her favorite punction mark was the ellipse? … Gosh … it’s no wonder we like her. … =) [FEATURED TAGS: Justine Joli Video, Holly Morgan, Nicki Hunter, Exclusive Video, Michael Ninn, D.Minion] |
11/11/05 | Psst. … Shh. … “Clicko on Kristal for Kristal via Clicko” … (Be vewy qwiet. We’re not hunting wabbits, but we still need to be vewy qwiet.) … Boy, did you ever have one of those days if you can’t decide whether you’re more Austin Powers or Elmer Fudd, or whether either one represents something we’d have to admit under the Fifth Amendment? In actuality, we’re probably more like Arthur Dent when it comes right down to it, oh, except we’ve lost our towel. Now rather than travel too far down that intergalactical line, let’s just Clicko on Kristal for Kristal via Clicko and call it a fine Friday, shall we? (You really don’t have to be quiet about it.) [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers] |
11/10/05 | We travel from Juli and Tiffany’s Sexual College through the Monaco Grand Prix today, well, by way of well-endowed blow up dolls and heavily tattooed masturbatory bands. All in all, it’s a fairly typical D.Minion on the set of Night Calls sort of event if you think about it. Sometimes all we have to do is tell it like we see it. Sometimes that’s just plenty. [FEATURED TAGS: Night Calls, Juli Ashton, Tiffany Granath, Christy Canyon, D.Minion, Risque News Insight] |
11/6/05 | Our “Ninn Worx Weekends” make a stellar return today with its usual bevy of comely lasses, which is really rather funny when you consider that we’re talking about the latest installment of POP. (Well, it will be the latest when it comes out later this month anyway.) We also debut the appearance of the Existential Comic in what may turn out to be his only appearance in these wonderful pages not that he’d care much one way or the other. It’s all meaningless anyway, after all. On the upside, Terrell Owens has a lot of time to read today, what with him losing his job and all. He should really think about existentialism as an alternative to his “whining as a professional art form,” don’t you think? [FEATURED TAGS: Terri Summers, Nikki Blond, Taryn Thomas, Mandy Bright, Monica Daniels, Erica Vachs, Phoenix Ray, Jodie Moore, Angel Cassidy, Tory Lane, Penny Flame, Tiffany Hopkins, Carmen, Anna Karin, Wanda Curtis, Olivia Del Rio, Michelle Michaels, Nikita Denise, Sharon Wild, Brittney Skye, Michael Ninn] |
11/4/05 | How anyone can think that either Dee’s an “Unidentifed Woman” or, particularly, that Sean Michaels wouldn’t be able to identify her, just baffles the imagination, doesn’t it? Of course understanding the nature of XXX movies as we do, we can certainly say that this would be the first thing we’ve ever run across the somewhat stretches credulity. Well, we can cerainly say it, but we can certainly say a lot of things. In fact, we often do … certainly … say them …. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, D.Minion] |
