Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

3/27/09

Aren’t they peculiar, the turns life often makes? Somehow, and against odds no actually knowledgeable person could have taken, we have found ourselves once again mentoring an adult production company. This time, though, it happens to be a brand new one, which makes the challenge unique, and that’s always fun. If we do a reasonable job, you may well be hearing about Night Moods Productions — hopefully in a positive way, come to think of it. On the upside, we do find ourselves consistent with our most dear philosophy as we approach life’s peculiar turns: At the very least we should try and accomplish new and different mistakes.

Justine Joli providing visual aids. She's excellent at that.

Not being the type to (intentionally) go back on promises to Members, we’re serving up Maverick’s 247AdultStars exposé on Day Three of the 2009 AEE today. As it turned out there was a bit more “exposed” than perhaps some might have preferred, and that includes the Elvis sighting, as a matter of fact.

Pre-Exposed in the Expose
3/22/09

Our Newbie completes his task this weekend, as we wrap up the Uncle Gibby tribute to the 2009 AEE. He even did such a bang-up job on its companion video compilation that we demanded he allow us to double his salary — which if you know us at all means that this constitutes a guest editorial. We love our guest editorials, but the writers don’t honestly get much in the way of what most people would call “salary” — probably. Of course, we’ve never been overly concerned with what “most people” would do. As it turns out, that’s a very good thing around here. We’d spend most of our time being depressed.

Creepy by any other name ... is still creepy.

The Vernal Equinox visits us again, reminding us of freshness, hope, and rebirth. Consequently we thought about Phoenix. … What can we say? We’re clever that way. Also, it’s generally sufficiently entertaining to read D.Minion’s Phoenix account, that you almost don’t notice the decidedly strange slant that she can bring to adult situations. If, however, you do happen to notice, take some advice from the ancient ones around here: Just pretend you don’t. Simply concentrate on the sexually adventurous people here, then maybe make a nice snack for yourself.  [FEATURED TAGS: Phoenix Ray, Taryn Thomas, Michael Ninn, D.Minion]

Art more appreciated in the larger Members' version.
3/17/09

It seemed we should celebrate one of the few global holidays that don’t involve giving gifts, since that’s a tiny group. Consequently, Maverick finished up his Day Two of the AEE ’09, providing at least what may pass for edification in the process. We’re not sure about that, but we will tell you what we’ve learned about St. Patrick’s Day around here: You don’t technically need green beer; if you have enough of it, pretty much everybody at the party will be green.

Sasha Grey looking colorful, actually.

Because of the weirdness of yesterday we didn’t actually get to the “bitty bonus” with Dee as soon as we wanted to. That said, there’s never really a bad time for Dee, and we did promise to keep plodding through her KSEX backlog. (OK, so we promise that every time she brings it up, but we always really mean it.) Also, we were obligated to make a couple of instructional additions to the new Message Board system, and we got a chance to blame Maverick for some more things. … All in all, this worked out as a fine addendum.  [FEATURED TAGS: KSEX Radio, Dee, D.Minion]

Dee Demonstrated her Slurping Technique
3/14/09

So we had perfectly wonderful news yesterday, cleverly coinciding with a rare second Friday the 13th in consecutive months. You see, THE MESSAGE BOARD IS BACK! Naturally this means that members can once again correspond with our favorite females directly, and that pretty much makes everybody happy. … Then we learned that a little bit of knowledge can still be a dangerous thing as D.Minion pulled rank a bit and “offered” her consultation services to the post. Well, we didn’t get all the “enhancements” done until today, but we still “Put the Who back in Whoo-Hoo!” [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, D.Minion]

A Now Rather More Relaxed Dee
3/11/09

Another Michael Ninn shoot is in the can, and at least one judge even says Michael has the right to use that name. A bit overcome with glee, though, we found ourselves in the midst of an unusually long movie trek over the last few days. On the upside that meant we had to spend an unusually long time on the set with Monique Alexander and Jenna Haze, though, so it was pretty hard to complain. Of course none of this has much to do with Uncle Gibby’s expose on Days Two and Three of the AEE, but it does give us more to look forward to, right? Oh, and because Dear Maverick decided that an autograph from Monique wasn’t worth waiting in line for, Tori Black has decided she’s going to “kick his butt” next year. Now Mav has something to look forward to as well. [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Adriana Sage Video, Exclusive Video, Uncle Gibby]

Our new friend Titillating Tenaya trots before us again today. … OK. So she’s not technically trotting, and although she’s definitely titillating, she doesn’t really use the adjective as part of her name. However, if you’ve been around here for very long, you know well our fondness for lighthearted alliteration — always. And if you’re not a member yet, you really should think about becoming one. We’re fun. … And for those of you reading this already inside the Members’ Section: “Sorry. We have to pitch once in awhile, just to keep D.Minion from becoming D.Meany.” [FEATURED TAGS: Tenaya, Exclusive Audio, D.Minion]

Tenaya and her Titillating ... Parts
3/4/09

Apparently modern technology allows a humble young man in Wisconsin to fire a shot clear over the Atlantic Ocean and get the attention of a similarly humble man over in London, England. Wow. How cool is that? … Maverick read Uncle Gibby’s Day One of the 2009 AEE post, and immediately began his serious efforts at getting up the 247AdultStars version of the events. For our part we get to see them both, naturally, as we pretty much use any excuse we can to get it up. (As it were.)

A Woman Worth Firing a Different Kind of Shot At
3/1/09

Back when he first started 247AdultStars.com Maverick began by working closely with an English performer named KazB. In fact, they worked so closely together that Mav even created an entire section in 247 called “Kaz Picks” where Kaz did exactly that. Now back in the early days of the site, Kaz always “picked” various sexy women to perform with her, but as you’ve probably seen in your own lives, women change as they get older. As we see the Ides of March on the horizon here, Kaz has apparently broadened her own horizons, to, well, not include a “broad” — as it were. Mav asked if we were OK running a b/g sex scene on the site, and we said, “Awww. … Aren’t the newbies cute when they’re this age?” [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars, Kaz B. Video, Exclusive Video]

Kaz B ... picky, picky, picky

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]

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.

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]

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.

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?)

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.

We’ve got another big trip down to LA planned, because Michael has decided that it’s a grand idea to shoot eight days in a row … because Michael is completely insane. That said, we figured we’d tag along anyway because odds are good that there’s going to be at least a few very interesting young women to talk to, and the fact that they’re likely to be scantily clad really doesn’t enter into the equation at all. OK. It might, but we were never very big fans of equations in general, so we plan on doing as little math as possible while we enjoy the ambiance. For your part, you can finally read about Redish’s big day with an also scantily clad Kristal Summers, and you can once again remind yourself about the value of genetics as you consider Anais. All in all, if this doesn’t keep you busy until we get back next weekend, then you can try solving equations for three variables or something, but don’t ask us for help. We’ll be hanging with the naked chicks – to hear what they have to say, of course. [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Kristal Summers, Anais Video, Exclusive Video, Redish]

Sometimes after a big ol’ This is The Industry’s Biggest Convention of the Year kind of post, you just want something nice and simple. We were trying to do that today. … Unfortunately in perusing Chris Hall’s wonderful photos from Through Her Eyes, we noticed that all of the pictures are of particularly beautiful and alluring women, which by definition means that they are anything but simple. We didn’t have a better plan, though, so we’re posting them anyway. We are, however, including a time-honored caveat: Y’all be careful now. Y’hear?

The train she was a slowin’ down as we headed into the end of the trip for Lon’s AEE story. But we now know a whole lot of things we didn’t know before – none of which will help in the slightest if we ever want to be on Jeopardy, by the way. Still we’ve now managed to finish this particular trek and we hid a little Dee (and Georgia Adair) bonus in there for the detective-types among you. (OK. It’s not really hidden that well, but let’s face it: Those two young ladies pretty much shine despite any shadowy intent.)

Do you know what’s better than a photo set of Inari Vachs wearing a fancy outfit with a bright green and white feather boa? Well, you probably guessed it, but if you didn’t it’s Inari Vachs NOT wearing a fancy outfit – with a bright green and white feather boa. Also, we have Days Two and Three from Lon at the AEE, but with all deference to our good friend, we’re thinking Inari naked might be more of a draw. Call it a hunch …. We call it “Inari, Unconstricted” … but we’re weird that way.  [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Inari Vachs, Kristal Summers, Kylie Ireland, Exclusive Video, Lon, Risque News Insight]

We interrupt our regularly scheduled AEE coverage to bring you a bit of news (with a video celebration, naturally). As it turns out Heather (Vuur, or Vandeven, it remains to be seen) has been named Penthouse Pet of the Year. Gee. Who knew? While her magazine won’t “officially” be hitting the stands for a couple of weeks, we thought we’d provide this Public Service Announcement so that y’all might begin saving your pennies so that you may purchase one. We can probably even get you an autograph if you send it in and request it. We know people that know people, you know. Oh, and don’t worry. We’ll get back to Lon’s fascinating and technically marvelous Polaroids soon. [FEATURED TAGS: Heather Vurr Video, Heather Vandeven Video, Exclusive Video, Michael Ninn]

Heather. Penthouse Pet of the Year.

Our bonus today includes 100 beautiful pictures of Ninn Worx’ contract star Heather. There is absolutely no reason that we would be talking about Heather this weekend, because that would be wrong. So don’t even think there’s a reason. We never do anything wrong, after all. Well, we did include Lon’s Day One of the AEE today too, and depending on your perspective, that might be “wrong” – but we’re pretty sure it’s not going to make anyone physically attack us or anything. Historically, by the way, that has been our internal barometer of “wrong” – which probably means yet another thing we’d rather not think about. We also talk about Froot Loops. We’ll just eat some of those rather than think too deeply.

According to the take-out packaging at the local’s Wendy’s restaurant, a “Zedonk” is a cross between a male zebra and a female donkey. Implied in this description must be the logical assumption that a female zebra would kick the begeezus out of a male donkey if he tried to mount her. Now we don’t know what exactly Lon’s beginning of the AEE would be a cross between, and we’re pretty sure the one thing it doesn’t have is implied logical reasons buried in it. But it does represent a rather wacky example of our lives, and we get to see Dee naked for a bit, and that’s always nice. You have to consider that we may not be the best judges of things around here, though, as we thought “Zedonk” was the sound your rotweiller makes when the car it’s been chasing for months finally decides to stop in the road.  [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Dee, Jana Cova, Sunset Thomas, Lon]

Dee. One of our many pleasant diversions today.
