Gossip

Bianca Trump writes: I will no longer be attending the CES convention. What was diagnosed as the flu was not. It was broncittis that has now turned to pnuemonia. I will miss you all. Have fun for me!

Phyllisha Ann decided not to go through with her breast enhancement surgery. She leaves today for CES with Kianna Bradley, her roommate.

Phyllisha Ann writes at 6PM Wednesday: WOW!!.......No I mean that.....WOW!! I think the biggest compliment I've gotten from reading this is that all you guys, even BEAUTIFUL Jenna Jamenson knows who 'little me' is!! Thank you! I mean that sincerely... Thank You!

As I'm reading this I came across a statement which said -- I should stand up for all the other girls in the business that are being pressured. That thought made me feel good. So on that note I say... BULLs---!!!!!! I love ya Marty, don't get me wrong, but unless I'm WAY OFF, I'm wondering why after at six months: AM I NOT DANCING?!? I had my costumes but together w/music from my past experience of working with HOT STUFF PROD. (Love ya Daimen!) for five years. I made sure I was ready before I sighned w/you, Marty. Maybe that promo shoot didn't go as well as hoped but when does it take six months to re-shoot something?

I finally agreed to getting a boob job because I'm overly anxious to start featuring! Let me out on that stage, I'll blow you right out of the water! Dancing is something I do because I love to do it. I've been a house dancer for six years, so I'm fully aware between the difference of house and featuring, that is the reason why I started to do porn, as I'm sure many girls, to build my name, so I can feature. I'm tired of being held back!!!

I've come to realize that I am insecure thats because right now in my life I am (or was) uncertian. Thanks to all of you I've learned that getting bigger boobs isn't going to make me more secure, getting my life at the point where I believe it should be, can only do that. Bigger boobs would prob. only make life more fuzzy because all I'd want to do is play with them. hehe I just want to finally get on the road so I was giving in, I've just learned I don't have too! When or If I get bigger boobs It'll will be only because I wanted something new to play with, NOT because I'm being lead to believe that's what I need.

SO YES!! I AM STANDING UP!! THANK YOU EVERYONE SO VERY VERY MUCH FOR HELPING ME REALIZE WHAT'S REAL AND WHATS ANOTHERS OPION! WITH LOVE MARTY I AM SAYING TO YOU AND THE WORLD.... HERE I AM!! TAKE ME AS I AM OR RIP UP THAT DAMN CONTRACT BECAUSE I'M READY TO ROLL!!!!!

Kianna my room-mate said something that helped me make it all click..."Getting bigger boobs didn't make me who I am. It was ME, my personality, bigger boobs didn't help my personality. Thank you again because of everyone that took a minute and gave me their insight...that alone gave me enough security inside to be strong enough to be able to stand up!!

Kianna writes: hi there luke! well just wanted to say that i am also signed with marty foyer, and well i'm pretty disturbed about all of this. my friend phyllisha anne does not NEED to get a breast enlargement what so ever! she is beautiful inside and out. i told her that its not your tits that make the show its you and let me tell you she IS always the life of the show!!!she has so much energy and is always smiling until now,fortunately now because of all those who have wrote in she reali that she can be herself and a boob job is not goona make anyone like her more than they already do. you know i went through three surgerys because they f---ed up, and for those who take this thing so lightly, its not a very good feeling especially when the doctor (whom was a specialist) doesnt have the time to fix the mistake right away.i hope she never has to go through that...if she gets them or not. point is she will get them if she wants to only if she wants to,on that note i hope she doesnt because its all i have to handle her now, imagine w/ some titties!!!!!!!! heehee anyways marty, she's ready babe.. and shes got what it takes.

luke i wanted to tell you that i am signing w/ Metro for ces and i am very very happy! They treat me so awesome. I could not want anything more from any other company. Dont get me wrong I enjoyed working for all the others, but you know when it comes to Mr. Mike Adams in some leather pants I just have to stay here, and dont let me forget Mr. Mcormic YOU have the nicest cans of all!!!:) No really I love these guys,they are alot of fun to work with, and well, we all know that James Avalon is one hell of a director. As far as my boss, he has helped me through alot of s--- with, we all know who :( So Greg and Wendy thanks for being there. and giving me this chance. I wont let you down!And by the way my date for the award show is Jeremy,he manages rap artist like OLD DIRTY BASTARD AND KOOL KEITH ,amogst many more he is totally awesome!

Emmet writes about Phyllisha Ann: Me and thousands of others are happy as hell that she did not risk her life, self esteem, and beauty for those stupid implants that are suppose to please the depraved men of society who do not give a crap about a person's life but their own. In time Phillysha will be elated as well. I hope other porn actresses follow her lead. Congratulations to you and your site Luke, and to you Kianna for being Phillysha's friend, and congratulations especially to you Phillysha, for making a hard, and monumental, smart decision.

Ben writes: Noticed the big controversy on your site about strippers. And that some guy is ragging on about Vanna Lace falsely claiming to be a Penthouse Pet. Actually, I've seen her pix in Penthouse. And she's featured in a Penthouse video from the early '90s. Which would seem to make her a Penthouse Pet, wouldn't it?

Porner writes: ALEXANDRIA QUINN COST THE STORE OWNERS 1.000 AND 1000 OF && SHE GOT ON TV AND f---ED EVERY BODY NATION WIDE TV HARD COPY ALSO SHE IS AGOOD MODEL SHE SHOULD GO TO WORK IN CARSON CITY THIS IS HER KIND OF PLACE

Lysisstra writes: I just read the Virgin Kink posting from LoreleiNix a few days back and I definitely agree! Any pro-domme would tell you that what Kym [Wilde] does is just abuse, with no finesse, technique or intelligence! She looks like she's trying to get back at "Daddy" by beating up random individuals. My advice, Kymmy honey: drop the flogger, pick up a phone book and call yourself a good therapist!

Shmuel writes from South America: Stanlay Miranda, director and CEO of Brazilian's branch of the Evil Empire, is going out of his mind. Literallu way. Once, he was a jolly good fat fella with a nice, fatherly attitude. Now he's into some WEIRD diet involving amphetamines that affect the brain. Now he's a fat fella with a really short fuse and a tendency to scream and cuss a lot. If you see him at CES along with Stagliano and crew, beware: HE BITES!

Charley Frey writes: FYI Jasmin St. Claire is suing Mike Ross, not me. I was charged as her manager to call Ross and request his attorney's information...he declined to provide it.

Feature school for $1500 [a week]??? What a scam. Please invite any act that wants to learn not only how to perform, but, how to make the most money as a feature to call us...954.423.4256. Not only will we train her at no charge, we will give her travel expense money, and will provide accomodations for the week she is in town. If anyone doubts our ability to create the biggest acts in the country, ask Houston, Jasmin St.Clair, etc...how much they are earning. And there is no requirement for any act to do adult videos, nor get implants. We work with them to expand their best attributes.

After 18 years in business, I think I have considerably more experience, contacts, and ability than newcomers of only a few years. I have not only worked legitimately as an adult talent manager, I have owned, operated, managed and consulted for clubs all over the country. So many of these self-proclaimed professionals got their minimal starts working for me...some worked for me as little as 2 weeks before telling the world...they are an agent. And then, the funny thing is...after trying to be "agents" for a while with minimal success, they had to join up together to even get anywhere at all...is it not funny that instead of screwing me over, they could have continued working for me and had the chance to represent the really serious acts in the country. And they would have made much more money in the process. One of account Representatives...Tony P is now earning in excess of 6 figures...after only a year and a half on the job. He himself has considerable experience in the industry including having managed several clubs, after working as a roadie for several years. So, he's qualified to offer advice to clubowners spending thousands of dollars on acts. Again, I invite any entertainer, or current magazine model, or porn actress to contact us if they really want to see their career skyrocket...and without wasting money at some ridiculous feature school. As above, we will not only not charge them, but will actually pay for their hotel, and give them a transportation allowance to learn. Charly Frey 954.423.4256

Oh, by the way...

1. We never had an office inside Porkeys. Althought they were and still are one of our good clients.
2. Not only did we not provide any information on DeJaVu nor anyone else to the government (although many think that this Machelli idiot is actually working for the government now), we actually offered positive references on some people in the industry that were accused of various things.
3. Except for in the delusional mind of someone, anyone that knows me knows that violence towards women is something I absolutely despise. I am married, and have a daughter...as a father and a husband, I believe there is no excuse for hitting any girl.
4. Given my success, it seems that so many newcomers, leeches, wanna-bee's, has-beens, etc...find it interesting I suppose to malign me, when in fact, they mostly don't even know me. I guess it is the theory that if you use the name of the biggest player in the industry even in a bad way, somehow that gives you as the nobody some type of credibility.

Naughtia Childs writes: Luke I hate to be the one to say it but your site has gone to hell. Ok ok its not that bad, it is just kind of boring lately, you need to spice it up a bit. How about try to find some porn drama. the exotic dancers info is ok but there has to be something better.

Another thing, I am 20 years old. I got out of high school, waited a year then stated a new kind of high school with just as much drama, the porn industry. You know what would be cool to start doing for the new year? a porn yearbook. The yearbook would have a freshman class, all the talent that is new, a sophomore class all the talent that has been in for 1-3 years , the junior class all the established names the senior all the people that are legends or contract people. The faculty would be producers directors an companies. then we could do something that is like best hair, best pussy, best dressed, best undressed, coolest pop shot, longest cock etc. . it would be put together after the avn awards and have all the winners, and losers documented forever. The reason this could really work is this, Most of this industry has people who's highest level of education is high school level. Most people talk s--- once someone turns their back. We have definite clicks.

Ohh one more similarly, All the little schoolgirl movies. Everyone wants them young and in school uniforms. Where does that leave you luke? You are the school newspaper documenting all of the drama. So make a section every day at the front of your page and it can be like a bulletin board where we can post little happenings. ohh actually I just thought about something, That is what your site is a interactive porn yearbook, or just a porn gossip site. thank you for the entertainment. see you all in Vegas Baby.

Goddess writes: Awwwwww, some of your readers think condoms ruin the fantasy aspect of porn. How do they feel about putting THEIR LIVES on the line for the sake of a little eroticism?

XXX: Most old porn stars are bitter. They all think they're legends who are under appreciated for their contributions to society. So weird, most "legit" actors feel the opposite, embarassed for being famous for doing so little.

Donedone@aol.com writes: Glad to see you have TT Boy with no stars at all. Hes a sucker. A loser. His cumshots are paltry at best, he makes zero semen. His body is way soft. If he really rapes these chicks, he should be shot.

Hey Luke.... Can you please look into the Rough Sex series and interview one of these babes that gets their ass beaten till all the blood vessels are broken. Rented one just to see and the guys are pretty damn rough. The girls clearly grimace with some smacks, and their asses get all f---ed up, red and purple. How much are they getting paid? Are they enjoying this? What is the motivation for doing these movies?

Steven writes: Dear Mr. Ford: Recently, I read the article from TIME about Marylin Star who was involving in the inside information charge. In the article, she once married to a Japanese business man in the mid 90's. Is that true? I also heard that Busty Bell used to be married to a Japanese guy. Do you know any other porn actresses who married to Japanese guys?

Emmet writes: Dear Luke, In "Up Your Ass 12", Talvalia was upset that Lexington Steel and Jake Steed was about 5hrs late to the set. Then Sean Michaels allowed them to display "bitch" all throught out the entire screen for about 4 seconds on her body! That was beyond foul. She had every right to be upset! She was not even cursing or yelling. She just stated that she was upset for waiting for a while. So jeers to Sean, Lex, and Jake. I hope in "Up Your Ass 13" they display "Assholes" on themselves for 10 seconds.

Strip Club Controversy

XYZ writes: Hey Luke, you had a lot of stuff on your site about Deja Vu from Richard Machelli. Deja Vu is the most professional strip club operation out there. They brought in $75 million last year. Yes they are having problems with the government trying to zone them out of business, such as in the State of Washington. You mentioned that Charley Frey had dropped a dime on them to the feds. For what?

DBT writes: John Gray of Quest magazine. He used to work for Night Moves magazine in Florida. They bought him out and said he was broke. Then he was partners with Scandalous... He shows up at many events...

Luke: True, I know him. Met him at CES last year. He publishes magazines in many states. Spearmint Rhino owes John Gray thousands of dollars. John has partnered up with adultstarsmagazine.com.

Ann Marie Hayek operates Pure Talent with her husband Jim at 213 Belcher Road, Clearwater, Florida 33765, (727) 796-9600, Fax (727) 723-7355. www.pure-talent.com. Email: hotfeature@aol.com.

Rival strip club booker Richard Machelli: "If you go on her website, a lot of her girls do not even have credits. She has names of magazines with no month and no year. She even has a girl claiming to be a Penthouse Pet who is not a Pet. Vanna Lace (vannalace.com)."

TTT: "Jim is not business partners with Don Waite, owner of Exotic Dancer magazine. So you got that totally wrong... Jim does work as a production manager for Don Waite's Exotic Dancer Expo.

"Pure Talent is the best booking service I know. The most honest, the most professional. They work hard and have a great reputation. I've never heard a complaint about them, except from competitors."

Charley Frey is suing adult lobbyist Mike Ross for using Jasmin St. Claire's name without permission.

Ross is working with Pure Talent's dance school (charges features $1500 a week, house girls $1000 a week) to educate the strippers on the political process. How to lobby, etc...

Luke interviewed Jim Hayek Tuesday afternoon. His wife Ann Marie Hayek appeared in the April, 1989 edition of Playboy and other editions of the magazine, including an appearance in "Girls of the Big East," a "flats edition" and in a 1989 Hong Kong edition. She's now pregnant.

Dear reader, are you confused about which stripper booking agents are kosher? Are you concerned that the girl you're rubbing yourself raw over may not have high ethical standards? Check out Luke F-rd's Kosher Chickens Ethics Rankings where I give you the lowdown on the Hebrew Honeys and their goyishe friends.

Jim Hayek gave me a message about industry unity. He had hardly a bad word to say about anybody.

Jim: "It's a shame that industry people want to go ahead and criticize... There are so many things going on with the City Council and legislative matters that are jeopardizing the clubs...let alone folks within the industry slandering... A lot of the times when we hear stuff, we just let it go in one ear and out the other. It's unsubstantiated.

"My wife and I started Pure Talent about five years ago [1994?]. She was a feature entertainer for five years. She booked through all the agents herself. She learned what was going on. She owned the dance troupe "Dream Girls Centerfolds," an upper left style revue show (six to seven girls) that travelled around for six years. She owned, operated and managed the troupe...

"I am not a business partner of Don Waite's Exotic Dancer magazine.

"Richard Machelli. I've never spoken to him. I've never heard of anything he's done. I know that when Ann Marie first started her career, he called her frequently. I don't know what we ever did to this guy. I don't know why he feels like trashing everybody in the industry.

"I run the Exotic Dancer Expo. I helped Don Waite start it. But Don is the sole owner, I am simply the production manager.

"There is no reason for us to make up credits on girls. Every credit we list on the girls is directly from the girls. There is no reason for us to make up titles for the talent. We strive to represent the top ten percent of the talent. Ann Marie has set new standards for the booking industry. She does club report cards for the girls and the clubs. She hands out three page questionaires to the talent before we even accept them as talent for our agency. They have to send polaroids."

Luke: "How would you know the girls are telling you the truth? If she claims she was in Penthouse..."

Jim: "We check it out. We have a very strong relationship with Dottie Meyers and the General Media organization [Penthouse's corporate parent]. We are one of the few agencies that they recommend to girls to work with.

"We require girls to send in the issue [of the magazine they are claiming on their resume]... If they claim they are a Penthouse Pet, which is one of the strongest credits a girl can have on the circuit, you can tell if a girl is making something up. I've been to about every single event out there. I know all the publications. And if a girl says 'I was in Penthouse' and doesn't remember the date she was in, that's a red flag. We receive subscriptions to most of the magazines out there.

"When it comes down to some of the smaller contests, that is irrelevant to the club owners... You can't book a contest girl on a higher rate... She would normally fall under the new girl rate..."

Luke F-rd has decided to start up his own stripper contest. Don't forget to show Luke your assets and oral abilities at CES so you can be Luke F-rd's Miss Nude World, Luke F-rd's Miss Nude World Petite, Luke F-rd's Miss Nude World Greatest Cocksucker, etc... It should boost your dance rate dramatically.

Jim named off a long list of contests.

Jim: "I don't know [how legitimate they are]. It's not my job to police them. But if a girl has participated in an event at a club, I don't know the legalities of registering contests. We don't do contests. We put on showcases."

Luke: "How meaningful is a contest? She won a contest for any of the organizations you just mentioned... What difference would it make in her booking rate?"

Jim: "There are contest girls who are phenomenal dancers... There are many different categories of girls. There are novelty acts, adult film stars, magazine models, high energy entertainers, you have girls who are drop dead gorgeous. It really comes down to matching the club with the right girl.

"Ann Marie does the bookings. I'm getting my license and you have to have a license before you can book anyone."

Luke: "A license from whom and for what?"

Jim: "From the state of Florida, Business and Professional Regulations, BPR. You have to renew it every two years. You have to be bonded. We have to hold $5000 bonds. They do FBI background checks on you. You have fingerprints, photos... It is not a regular business license where you go to a local court house and pay $15... These licenses initially cost about $800, and then you have to post surety bonds... You have to renew every two years, and that costs about $400... It's good to have licensed agents. It makes it reputable. Anyone who goes that extra mile and puts it out there and goes through background checks, and it takes six months to get...

"When we talked to the guy from BPR, he didn't even know that our industry existed..."

Luke: "It's amusing that the government regulates stuff like this."

Jim: "That's why we have guys like Mike Ross, fighting for the clubs.

"We're starting our first school on the 24th. We represent girls like Penthouse Pet Chloe Jones who wants to become a feature entertainer but doesn't know zero about it... We're going to give them the A - Zs of being a feature entertainer. She's been in tons of magazines but what goes along with that. The promo, the appearances, the radio interviews... She needs to look at longevity in the industry. You are only a thoroughbred racing horse for so long... Look after your money. Getting the proper costumes.

"The feature school goes over establishing credits, promotional photography, costuming and props, show format and music, dance instruction, cosmetic surgery: is it right for you or not?, make-up strategy, appearance - skin, hair and nails, body - how to care for it. We have a fitness instructor... Safety on the road. Contracts, what to sign, with who and when. Insurance and financial planning. And Mike Ross is preparing stuff for us as we speak for the political arena. If something happens in their club when they're busted, who's in their town that they can contact.

"For our January 24th class, we have Cheri magazine coming in to do a big spread on us.

Jim Hayek: "For the house dancer: What's the best club for you. Dance instruction. How to be a star in your club. Costuming and music selection. How to do different dances. How to sell dances. Pole techniques. Stage presence. Hair and makeup, skin and nails. Diet, fitness, safety...

"I come from the concert touring industry and I still do a major tour called the "Extreme Sports Tour."

"It was difficult to get a group [health insurance] policy for the entertainers. How do they know what this girl makes in the club? We get nothing from this. We don't get a percentage. It is simply referral. It is the right thing to do for our entertainers.

"We're trying to bring legitmacy to this industry. Our girls are married... These aren't bad people... Every single day we come in with our honesty and integrity and at the end of the day, damn well we're going to leave with that.

"Some adult film stars go out for huge money. Then we have some new girls who go out for $50 a show. A standard week is 24 shows. If a girl has credits, $2400 is a standard rate... Penthouse Pets generally start out at $125 a show. Doing one or two movies is not going to increase your rate. You have to get into the range of the Anna Malle's who've done over 300 films."

Luke: "Richard says that you book Rayveness for a $1000 less a week than she asks for?"

Jim: "No, that is ridiculous. The girls tell you where there rates are at. I won't discuss any of the girl's rates in a public forum. It's a girl's decision what she wants to take for a performance. As an agent, you strive to get them the highest rate you can. There are scenarios that go on. Perhaps the girl is two hours away from the next booking... Maybe it is a down week..."

Jim says that not only do the girls fill out questionaires to join his agency, but clubs wanting to book his girls must also fill out questionaires. "We don't ask them to send us polaroids about their club but we ask them for referrals.

"We take a 12% commission, the industry standard.

"We don't service clubs that aren't safe. I know that Ann Marie in the past has dropped numerous clubs because the hotel conditions aren't par. And par is Holliday Inn quality."

I glance through his website www.pure-talent.com.

Jim: "We're having problems with our webmaster. They have photos up there that should not be up there... And it has been frustrating... I have a different vision of our website than what our webmaster has done."

Luke: "Do you guys get kickbacks if you refer a girl to a plastic surgeon?"

Jim: "No. I've never had a kickback. And I've never heard of anything like that. Plastic surgery is the girl's decision. Look at Ashley Lauren, a natural chested girl who's one of the most published magazine models in the industry."

Luke: "Have you ever told a girl that she needs to get a boob job?"

Jim: "No. Girls are always going to ask Ann Marie's opinion... If they ask if it would help, you try to be as honest as possible. And it's no lie that the hour-glass shape does sell. And it is a body business. But for you to tell someone 'You need to get a boobjob or you will not be able to feature,' is ridiculous. No way."

Luke: "Do you refer girls to certain plastic surgeons?"

Jim: "No, we refer them to girls that have had plastic surgery."

Cindy Plenum (Sindeeplenum@netscape.net) writes: Hey Luke! I see that you are providing ratings of management. What a great idea! Let the girls know who they are getting in bed with! I just want to mention my agent, Arkedy Dove Putzinoff, a really great guy from Russia. He manages me, and wants to manage lots of other girls too. A really good money manager (all those people are!) who also can take care of any visa or greencard problems some of you undocumented girls might have.

Alexandria Quinn

Mad Jack writes: "At some point in life I think we ALL make a bad decision or two that cause us problems later in life. God knows my 6 year prison stay was the result of one of mine. Alexandra Quinn made a bad decision a LONG time ago as has been living it down ever since..I recently had the pleasure of working with this Canadian beauty and I have to say, let by gones be by gones... I met her at adultdex a month or so ago and told her to call me when she was back in town, which she did. I've had a chance to spend a lot of time with her in the last few days and I have to say she is a TRUE professional. To correct your posting from the other day, she IS NOT staying with me, just hanging, and working with me....we shot a couple of scenes last night and she was soooo hot i almost didn't make it to our scene. This is a girl who was MADE for porn. Not only does she LOVE to f---, she can contort herself almost ANY position. what a babe...anyone who still holds a grudge and won't shoot her is losing out...Trust me when I say that she gave me the BEST bj I've ever had. Even better than yours, Luke."

Kevin Beech Engaged To Violet Love

Luke reported a week or so ago that Kevin Beech had broken up with Gina Ryder.

XXX tells Luke: "Kevin said, hold on, there was never a breakup because she was never my girlfriend. We're good friends and that is it." He goes, "Besides, I got engaged to Violet Love (a dark haired girl from Texas brought into porn by Michael Raven) on New Year's Eve. We're as happy as hell. She moved into my house.""

Anna

LAX writes: request: profile ANNA KOURNIKOVA on your stars page. you know her, she's the young norwegian teen porn star, really hot on the internet. rumors that most of her stuff was done when she's only 14. maybe find out how old she really is, and what her parents were thinking letting her do porn if she really was only 14. real hot blonde with small tits. norway age limit is very young, as you know. she's really hot on the net, done hundreds of shoots and movies, but pictures are hard to come by because they get taken down so quickly. i believe that is her last name. and not the tennis player. she usually just goes by "anna, norwegian teen porn sensation" or some s---. i don't have any recent urls to give you, all the ones i book marked have expired.

Larry writes: Funny Guy this LAX talking about Anna Kournikova (sic!!) "Norway age limits is very young, as you know". Are you kidding me? Norway is one of the few remaining western countries where pornography is forbidden. You have to go across the border to Sweden to be able to "enjoy" that stuff. And thus the legal age to appear in one would be, well, nonexisting right!? But hey, Norway have oil and salmon and what more do you need! Please get one thing straight once and for all, girls in european movies are 98% from the ex commi countries, mainly Czechs and Hungarians. The way porno is exlpoiting and destroying these poor girls is in history equivalent only to the Vietnam war where so many young american boys were drawn into something they did not really understand.... and that turned there lives to a life long suffering.

Chrisenglish1@yahoo.com writes: It is illegal to sell "Hardcore" pornography in both the UK and Norway, but in Norway it is as widely available (though discreetly) as it is in the USA. The age of consent for sexual intercourse in Norway, as it is in the vast majority of European nations East and West is 15. In England it is 16. And I can tell you no one even bats an eyelid at this.

I can confirm though that Larry is right in his contention that 98% of all porn girls in Europe are form Hungary and the Czech Republic and other East European countries, though I'd put the figure at about 99.5 %. Almost all the girls used in Sweden's very small porn industry are almost all imported. At the moment the Baltic nations of Latvia and Estonia are favored export sites due to thier close proximity. Curiously virtually NO directors, (Christoph Clark and Rocco excepted) or producers live in or anywhere near the main East European talent pool sites, (Hungary and the Czech Repuplic) instead proffering the international "commute to shoot," from Germany Italy and France, where virtually all of the producers, directors and tech teams are located. Needless to say the transport and accomodation costs, even within Europe can make up a substantial proportion of a budget and depite talent costs being lower ( marginally in the case of the best girls, and good Wood costs more by the way) it is for this reason that it actually costs more NOT less to shoot a movie in Europe than it does in the US. The widely held belief that Europe is where to get your product shot on the cheap is ...a FAIRYTALE.

J.D. Considine writes: Jesus, Luke, I know you're happy to post from the clueless, but the story of Anna isn't exactly secret (or anything like what LAX thinks). There's a usenet group devoted to Anna -- alt.binaries.pictures.erotica.anna -- for which an FAQ was compiled. The following comes from the FAQ and should answer LAX's questions.

3. WHO IS ANNA?

In 1986, an 18 year old Polish girl named Anuschka Marek (now known as Anna) made a film, 'Slave of Love'. The rest is history: still images from that film have proliferated and there are numerous web sites named after her. Anna's image has become famous on the net because there is a quality about Anna that few models can match. Anna was very young looking when she made 'Slave of Love' -- slim, small breasted, and with the unlined face of a worry-free teenager. It was impossible to judge her age - she could have been anywhere from 12 to 20. There is a love of sex, an awareness of the camera and a challenge in her eye as she gazes out at you that is quite captivating.

3.1 How old is Anna?

Anna was officially 18 in 1986 when she made 'Slave of Love', so today she would be 30. There is some dispute as to her actual age, because by some accounts she was actually 16 when she made the movie but was listed as 18 for marketing and legal reasons.

3.2 Where is she from?

She is Polish, of Russian extraction. Some have speculated that she is a descendant of the Romanov's, the Czars, who fled Russia for their lives after the revolution. Fueling this idea is that her features betray an aristocratic quality. Her family is also known to have money and estates which would support this supposition. 'Slave of Love' was shot on her Father's estate, and thereby hangs a tale.

3.3 How did she get into the business?

Anna's father was an adult film producer/director. He DID NOT want Anna to be the star of any of his films. He was wealthy so she had no need for money, but Anna was an independent young woman of rebellious tendencies and headstrong. One presumes that Anna laid it on the line to her father saying something to the effect that "I'm going to be in a movie and if you won't help, I'll find someone who will", and he caved. Quoting a source who is purported to know Anna: "she was determined and her sexuality was VERY important to her.. with this known, it is possible to see how gently and differently she is handled in 'Slave of Love'.... she is made to seem her father's little darling when the inside secret is understood... "

3.4 How long was Anna's career?

The following year, she made "Sperma Teens", a more commercial endeavor, and did some photo shoots, mostly School Girls series, before dropping out of the industry in 1988. In 1992 or 1993, Horny Rob (Robert M. of Holland) did a series of scans of Anna pictures and placed them on the internet. In 1995, Anna came out of retirement to do a third film, 'Anna's Ecstasy', in response to the popularity of the Alicia Silverstone look. She did some more photo shoots (the ones being released now) and has been in retirement since.

3.5 Where is Anna now?

She lives in Europe, has a boyfriend she is serious about and has no plans to make additional films. About 30 now, her appearance has changed somewhat since the original films were made. Thanks to a HellFire post I have seen a cover shot of a 1997 issue (don't know which month) of "Town and Country" that shows a woman named Anna Polk with her apparently two-year old daughter Kellyanna on her shoulders at Round Hill. If she isn't Anna, she's a real close face and body double. It's hard to tell, though, with her clothes on.....

Fred Flintstone writes: The write-up on "Anna" is hysterical. The author says she is a descendant of the Romanovs, the Czars who fled Russia for their lives. The Czar and his family didn't flee Russia (big mistake). They were murdered in Ekatrinburg. I wonder what percentage of the folks who read this stuff appreciate how nonsensical that write-up is.

If you're going to make up nonsense about a no-name porn star, you ought to make up something more interesting. I propose this:

Anna was cloned using cells from Seka during the 1970's by Jamie Gillis, who was then moonlighting as a mad scientist. Gillis took responsibility for educating Anna, making sure that she was exposed to the finer things in life (enemas, S&M, B&D, GS, fisting,etc.). Early on, she was gang-banged by the technicians in Gillis's lab. Having been trained by the great master, she has now taken the porn world by storm, even though nobody has ever heard of her.

Torris writes on RAME: In December's letters to the editor to AVN there is a submission from a video store employee/work from Maryland who speaks to the notion of how he has observed that his customers complain about too many condoms in movies nowadays. This guy goes onto reiterate much of what we Anti-Condomnistas have claimed about the fantasy aspect, etc. He's basically calling out AVN to do a feature on this issue and how there has been an appreciable dip in sales because of their presence. Of course AVN takes the chickens--- out in the little rejoinder which serves no purpose and the mixed metaphor really belies their knowledge and complicity in what the video store owner is talking about.

Yet AVN feels, of course, that they must continue to preach their propoganda: Paul Novak's last paragraph: "The chief complaint I get from my customers are too many condoms, too much d.p. in the videos, too much dick Nasty and ron Jeremy, and too many girls with tattoos and body piercings. AVN's editorial hissy fit: "So how about the nuclear test ban treaty: are your customers okay with that". Nice little contempt for the porn renter there eh Fishhead?

From RAME: Just off the latest rumor wire: - - - - - - - - - - - -

In the final few years of the 90's a variety of so-called producers have flooded the adult video market with an abundance of titles, and the related companies who distribute such videos have found themselves losing money on these new endeavors; however, yet another company, which will both produce & distribute their own original product, is set to start-up midway through the new year (2000).

X-Sighting Studios, Inc., which has been providing pre-produced shows (music) for adult natured feature acts since 1997, has recently begun work on production of their first adult gonzo video line titled "Facial Expresssions" set for tentative release in June of 2000. XSS President & CEO, D.J.X (already an established porn performer & videographer and current VP of Randy West Productions), states that the new series will feature first and "only" time fresh-faced girls performing strictly oral sex and taking huge "loads" on their face(s). "There seems to be a large market for this type of stuff..." says D.J.X, "And the girls you'll see in this series you will not see anywhere else!"

X-Sighting Studios will also begin production on three other lines by year's end, tentatively titled "Head Gear" (another orally themed series), "What You Want" (a series aimed at fulfilling fan's requests) and "Vantastic Voyages" (featuring all-out sex scenes taped while on the road) all of which will feature first-time & established female performers along with some more noticeable male stars. D.J.X adds, "Plus, for those who have been complaining about bad music in porn, we will bringing-in professional (recognizable) musicians to add their talents to these videos."

According to XSS, particular members of such bands as Godsmack & Loaded and former members of Queensryche have already offered to contribute to these projects. Special notes: D.J. is credited with thinking-up the series names "Planet of the Gapes" (for Tom Byron) and "Fresh Flesh" (originally for Vince Vouyer) and has been an award-winning adult entertainment [nightclub] disc-jockey since 1987.

SpankingHank writes on RAME: Well, one of my questions about Tara Patrick was answered when I got my February Penthouse today. She's the Pet of the Month, although her first name is spelled "Tera." As usual, no mention of her porn career is made, but she supposedly just bought a ranch in Argentia. (Yeah, right.) Alexus Winston is the Pet of the Year runnerup, looks extremely yummy, and has me ready to beg her to do hardcore b/g stuff.

Brian writes: One 80's actress that I always enjoyed, but never seemed to get a lot of star power was Amy Rogers. She looked tall and busty, kind of athletic with dark hair and features...real sultry, but kind of innocent. I didn't see her on your list of porn stars. I was wondering if you had any info on her.

Damacleus writes: Someone wrote recently asking how anyone could maintain a marriage with a porn star. Although love may have something to do with it, there is a simpler explanation in at least some cases. They lie. A lot.

NJG writes: Luke there's been this BI (blind item) making the rounds. It was first posted in the Globe or some tabloid that a major hunk hollywood male star is directing porno in practice for actually being a director. He's directing gay male porno btw. So, Luke the scoop, who is it??? I'm dying to know.....what have you heard???? Is it Brad Pitt? The BI said it was a str8 male.

Rodger Jacobs aka Martin Brimmer returned over Christmas to Luke's old stomping grounds of the Gold Country, in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range above Sacramento. Luke spent most of the years 1980-1993 there, near Auburn.

Rodger writes: We went to visit Jill's brother and his family in Nevada City for Christmas. We stayed at the Northern Queen Inn. It was very nice but it was 68 degrees and sunny. Hardly holiday weather, ya know? Yes, NC is a beautiful town, and I like the way that towns like Nevada City and Auburn retain their historical heritage. Vacaville is starting to invest a little more in cleaning up and restoring their historical section of town. The original post office, though, which has beautiful WPA (Works Progress Authority from the 1930's) murals on the walls has been converted, with murals intact, into a friggin' Mexican restaurant. That's the difference between Southern and Northern California: L.A. has no sense or appreciation for its own past.

Pat Riley writes on RAME about Caroline Pierce: Marginal face, long slightly curly reddish-brown hair, nipple rings, small/medium tits, clit and labia (2) rings, two tongue pins, tattoo on left front thigh, very white skin, belly button ring and a lithe body with a tight waist and a big butt.

Try her in Fear And Loathing With Kid Vegas. You'll hate Kid at the start--ignore his ravings--but when he actually gets down to having sex he's actually quite affectionate and the girls reciprocate. Oh, "try" means a cheap rental, not purchase or any serious bucks. She's also in Viva Kid Vegas but looks a little fat. What the hell, try both if your video store carries them.

If you want rough sex try...well, Rough Sex #2 where she's part of a four way with Elizabeth X, Felicity, and Mr. Marcus. She gets abused and slapped around and has the honor (?) of taking Marcus's cum in her mouth at the end. Or IIRC correctly you're big on g/g scenes so try her in The Violation Of Katie Gold. In these sort of movies my mind tends to blur and it's a real problem staying awake so I can't tell you what she actually does.

If you want a recommendation for a girl along the same lines but with no piercings, you should try Annie Bunz (aka Bobbie aka Bobbie Adore). I just watched Shane's World #21 and while the movie has problems (especially sleazebag Vince Voyeur) and she has problems (at one point Billy Glyde won't screw her because she's too drunk) her body is very nicely displayed many times under normal circumstances. She can also pee with male like distance and strength from a standing position and demonstrates. Annie and Gia Marie currently top my personal drool list.
