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.

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.

3/12/08

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

Kylie Wilde once again.
3/10/08

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

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

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

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

Roommates should all look like Inari Vachs.

We’re reaping the rewards of the UK extension today with a new gallery on KazB. We thought we’d mention it here too, just in case people aren’t yet used to looking at the 247AdultStars main page yet. Maverick uses a more traditional approach with his site, that being essentially just adding new gallery (or video) links to a star’s "main" page to update. Apparently not everyone on the web talks as much as we do. Go figure. That’s hardly the only non-traditional thing about us if you really want to know the truth.  [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars, Kaz B.]

Kaz B ... all that she can B.
2/23/08

Granted we’re paying a not-so-subtle tribute to yet another UK influence with our "Stray Cats" references. On the upside, though, our particular bent on this musical reference involves our own friends Kristal Summers, Georgia Adair, and Dee (which is way better than a bunch of hairy, sweaty guitar players from England). If you think about it, the Web has made microculture potentially profitable enough to ensure its survival, and Cam Shows are living, breathing, sexual proof of the theory. Oh, and we use "bent" in the nicest possible way, in case you were curious. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee Video, Kristal Summers Video, Georgia Adair Video, Exclusive Video]

2/19/08

Well the Geeks around here are all abuzz about some new Flash Video player they’re designing, or working with, or modifying … or some such silliness, and the rest of us have been forced to watch our own Kristal Summers in a bunch of her recent releases as we try to come to terms with where exactly the term MILF came from and why anyone is surprised that women over 22 years old can be sexy. Well we found out that although we’ve talked a lot about Kristal’s first Award Winning MILF movie, we never actually ran D.Minion’s On the Set Piece, and we figured we should do that one before we do the next ones. … And by the way, we’re renewing our public offer to "do" Kristal any time she offers too – purely in the interests of scientific research of course. [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers, Dee, Demi Dalia, Kitty Langdon, TJ Powers, D.Minion]

Kristal Summers with a guy that look a lot like Tom Hanks, but we assure you that he is not. ... Well, he's not Tom Hanks, but he is with Kristal. Lucky bastard. ...
2/16/08

We actually aim to be a little puzzling today, which stands in direct contrast to our usual method of simply being inadvertently so. On the upside, the effort involves our old buddy Becca and a couple of adult "novelties" (which have nothing to do with ice cream, oddly enough). There’s also yet another Sybian in sight, which seems to work well for some people – even those presumably not riding one while they read. If any of you ever get a chance, you should be an admin for an adult web site at some point in your life: People have fascinating login names …  [FEATURED TAGS: Becca]

Well Update Phase 1.5 has gone off with nary a hitch. But seeing as how we’re now hitching Mav’s 247AdultStars.com venture into the members’ area of our humble presence here, Valentine’s Day seemed like the perfect day to launch Our European Purview. That said, of course, we’re not sure whether this constitutes a love offering or a massacre. Life’s a matter of perspective after all. [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars.com]

Hot in London? ... Really?

The Pro Bowl starts at 4:30 ET today. We knew you’ve been desperately seeking that information, and we always try to help. On the off chance that you’ve been looking forward to the final installment of Dee’s Unabridged Sybian Show, well you can see that any time you want from this moment on. … So let’s recap. … Pro Bowl 2008: One specific time on one specific day. Dee on the Sybian: Any time on any day, from now on. … Gosh it’s nice to be better than the Pro Bowl. Maybe somebody should notify the NFL.  [FEATURED TAGS: Dee Video, Exclusive Video]

Big news on the horizon usually means silly amounts of code work in the office. And we can assure you that it takes a special kind of person to spend hours and hours tweaking miniscule amounts of code to the point where when people see it, they simply say, "Cool." … And the name for that special kind of person is weird in case you’re curious. Consequently while the alleged boss dude was distracted, someone from the Blue Collar Comedy writing corps obviously infiltrated our ranks as we were working on the next installment of the AEE 2008 review. Somebody better settle that writers’ strike in Hollywood pretty quick because those folks can be a bad influence on the young and impressionable it seems. On the upside, "Porn Princess" Christina and Redish will be happy, because they can finally know that all of their "stuff" will be shipping out this week. And the rest of us …. well, we’re not really sure what the rest of us should do. It gets really strange around here sometimes. [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Exclusive Video, D.Minion]

It's kind of a boob day if you want to know the truth.
2/3/08

We were going to post the final episode of the "Pink Makes Dee Think" Cam Show to celebrate the final day of the 2007 NFL season. … But then someone here pointed out that this is not in fact technically the last day of the season. We won’t mention whom, since that might be unnecessarily critical, but we will say that her name rhymes with "See Em" (if you note that we haven’t used an apostrophe in that second word). So we’re making it "Episode Two" and we’re trying to be nice about it. Still, has anyone actually watched a Pro Bowl in the last 15 or 20 years? … Well we haven’t either. … Basically we all know that the Pro Bowl just serves as methadone for football addicts. … Our final advice would be to just wait a day or so on this and watch the Super Bowl. And if you don’t like football, just do what "DM" does: Read a book during the game and look up to watch the commercials. (OK. There may have been another subtle hint about the identity of the picky, picky, picky office person in there.)  [FEATURED TAGS: Dee Video, Exclusive Video]

Dee, but not the pink part.
2/1/08

In an uncharacteristic burst of logic around here, we actually went searching for the "follow up" report on yesterday’s bit. We’ve heard that history is doomed to repeat itself, which seems nothing if not sad taken in conjunction with the core issue today. Fortunately, it doesn’t seem to repeat all that often, which makes the "head in the sand" people feel better about life. For the rest of us, we also have a peek into the early "pro" life of Exclusive Performer Julie Meadows. We’ll leave the "conclusions" on this to you members, though. … We need to go wash the dirt out of our ears. [FEATURED TAGS: Julie Meadows, Sharon Mitchell

Perky Ms. Meadows.

1/31/08

Somehow we got all serious today, at least for a good part of D.Minion’s industry report. Still a great deal more than "fun and games" goes along with being in the XXX Industry (and a good many fewer orgies than people think if you want to know the truth). It doesn’t hurt any of us to at least consider some of the Bigger Pictures every once in awhile – particularly when you can just click the little camera icon at the top of the page and skip to the "smaller" pictures – happily involving gratuitous nudity. We have a t-shirt pinned to the bulletin board in the office that says, "Everyone should believe in something. I believe I’ll have another beer." … Insightful perhaps. [FEATURED TAGS: KSEX Radio, Dee, Alana Evans, D.Minion]

We said all of that last post so we can tell you all of this today. Per a significant number of (at least potentially misguided) requests, we’re trying a brand new approach to Dee-Land this time around. We’ll let you know if it works and people are happy, obviously. And if you think about it, if you have Dee as Preface, Content, and Conclusion, how bad can it be really? [FEATURED TAGS: Dee Cam Show, Exclusive  Video]

Dee ... In the Pink ... so to speak.
1/25/08

Apparently we’ve been slacking off on bringing Dee’s KSEX Index up to date with all of the missing days from her tenure there. And apparently some people have noticed, because we’re getting emails about this oversight. … Well, coincidentally we were working on a rather large NEW approach to Dee’s Diary and decided to fill in for a brief bit here with some of those requested posts. For what it’s worth, we’ve long been of the opinion that there’s no such thing as too much Dee – particularly if Dee happens to be naked. She’s wonderful otherwise too, but naked saves on laundry. And we care about the environment — particularly around the office. [FEATURED TAGS: KSEX Radio, Dee, D.Minion]

What we'd be doing all the time if we had boobs like Dee.

We suppose we had to start somewhere in our daunting task of covering this year’s Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas. Consequently a "Best of" stills collection from Maverick, along with his "Convention Floor" video contribution seemed a nice, gentle way to begin. He’s also provided some of the "autographs" that he collected, which presumably (and hopefully) he’ll explain a bit more when he launches the 247AdultStars.com site within the risqué family. Last we heard he was "working frantically" on that task, but one can never really be sure what "frantic" means in the UK we’ve learned over the years. [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Exclusive Video, Maverick]

Customized Cutie
1/20/08

Upon the internal review of today’s contribution we actually had an unusual bit of disagreement among a couple of the troops. D.Minion wanted an explanation "elaboration" while Maverick held firm in the opinion that, "Hey. It’s just another story in the life of risqué." … As for what we all eventually decided, well, we can’t really get into that here. There are a couple of football games going on today, and we plan on grilling out and thanking our stars that we live in Southern California and not in either Boston or Green Bay. Brrrr. [FEATURED TAGS: Sasha Grey]

"Greyt" Expectations
1/16/08

Well we survived again and we’re all back and kicking. OK. So most of us are not kicking like the Rockettes exactly, more like Charlie Brown if you want to know the truth. Still, we managed yet another round of kissing, hugging, over-eating, and laughing amidst enough exposed flesh to cause sensory overload – even without the whole "being in Las Vegas" part. As is our custom – and since we’re very old it’s perfectly acceptable to have a "custom" by the way – we’re not going to simply bury you with everything at once. Over some time you’ll get a true feeling of at least our perspective on The State of The Industry, but we need to start somewhere …. So we decided to start later and today show you a truly ambitious scene from Couch Tomato Isabella instead. Hey, the last thing you want to do after taking 10,000 photos and 100 hours of video footage is actually look at it. [FEATURED TAGS: Isabella Video, Exclusive Video, Maverick]

Not Isabella.
1/8/08

As a technical matter we’re putting up tomorrow’s post today, since tomorrow we leave for Las Vegas for a week to attend the Adult Entertainment Expo (and the Consumer Electronics Show). Of course, when we actually leave it will be today, even though this will have gone up yesterday. Still, it’s a lot better than putting up today for day before yesterday, or even last week, as sometimes happens depending upon the goings on around these parts. If you think about it, why would we put off until tomorrow what we can do today anyway? And yesterday all our troubles seemed so far away – at least the way we remember it from years ago. … Oh, it’s Day Two on the set of Sophia with D.Minion’s usual bizarre observations and many, many pictures, by the way. But that seems sort of beside the point now, considering all of this. … Maybe it’s best if we stop thinking now. [FEATURED TAGS: Sophia Lynn, Renna Ryann, Moxxie Maddron, Sabrina Rose, D.Minion]

Allegedly it's refrigerated breast milk in a conventional container -- for milk, not breast milk. We can't make this stuff up.
1/5/08

Well, we have to confess that somehow D.Minion snuck in some more pictures of ladders, in additon to a shot she swears is snow falling in Las Vegas. (You can decide on that one.) But she also managed to shoot over 200 pictures of scantily-clad women as she finished up AEE 2007 for your scientific analysis. Of course she also captured Kristal Summers in basically no clothing for an impromptu hotel room dalliance, so that’s always good. Basically, it’s always good to see how people change (or don’t) after a mere year in the business. We’ve always said that it’s an odd planet that we live on, this one called the XXX Business in Los Angeles.  [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Kristal Summers, Dee, Julia Ann, Justine Joli, Audrey Hollander, Heather Vuur, Heather Vandeven, Monica Mayhem, Faith Leon, Isabella Video, Exclusive Video, D.Minion, Maverick]

It’s a rebirth! It’s a revision! It’s a revolutionary enterprise! … Or else it’s a moderately interesting new approach. … We always get those confused. We do know it’s a New Year, and we’re going forward with our usual philosophy: How bad can it be? [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Exclusive Video, D.Minion]

A little, potentially sad, perspective.
