Kimberly Kummings Update
After she left porn, Kimberly Kummings (daughter of a rich and famous businessman) worked as an assistant prop master on several mainstream films including Saving Private Ryan. Kummings was erratic on sets and in life. She became known as Mark Spiegler's contract girl because he become the only producer who would hire her.
During her time in porn, Kimberly had a boyfriend who beat her up. Once he did it so severely that she couldn't work for several weeks. She also crashed her car a few times. After such accidents, she'd phone her dad and get more money.
New Hustler Superstore
MONROE, Ohio (AP) - Hustler publisher Larry Flynt celebrated a victory over pornography opponents by taking part in the groundbreaking for a $1 million boutique that will sell sexually oriented merchandise.
Construction of the 7,200-square-foot building should begin next week, with a planned opening in early July. Flynt said the store will carry X-rated videos, sex toys and other adult merchandise, but those sales will not represent a substantial portion of the store's business.
Monroe is a community of 7,000 about 25 miles north of Cincinnati. Flynt and his brother, Jimmy, also have a store in downtown Cincinnati, where Larry Flynt has fought public officials over obscenity laws since the 1970s.

Mother Time writes on Netpond: A bit of history on the visa/3rd party billing issue:
in october, 1998, a senate subcomittee on banking and finance chaired by orin hatch met with representatives from visa-US to broker a compromise. what visa wanted was federal protection from personal banruptcy losses that were costing them in excess of 1 billion dollars per year. what congress wanted was to create a more difficult climate for adult internet processing to occur in time for the year 2000 elections. as adult internet processing only amounts to less than 1% of visas processing revenues, the "deal" was made. over a 1 year period, through tightening of chargeback thresholds, restrictions on recurring billing, free trial memberships, etc, visa will eliminate 90% of all online processing for "sex sites" on the net operating out if the US.
in the fall 1999 session of congress, contingent upon such reductions being made, congress will introduce hardline personal bankruptcy reforms aimed at limiting visa's losses.
at this point, the following changes have been implemented:
- reclassification of all adult commerce to level 4 (high risk)- March, 1999;
- reduction in chargeback threshold to 1% - March 1999;
- increase in chargeback and retrieval request fees - April 1999;
- elimination of free trials via support from the Federal Trade Commission regs
- April 1999; - retroactive fines of up to $100 per chargeback to October 1998 to all merchants found out of compliance for more than 6 months (i.e. see current DMR status)- last week.
what's next over the following 2 months:
- moratorium on all new individual/corporate "adult" merchant account setups without half-million dollar bond in place
- May 3rd anticipated - reduction in chargeback threshold to 0.75% - May 15th anticipated
- elimination of all "recurring billing" without prior approval for "future billing" (requires estimated $1.5 million bond in place and 30% reserve witholding for 1st 6 months of processing) - May 15th anticipated.
- termination and lifetime blacklisting of all adult merchants found to be out of compliance (i.e. all of them), including all 3rd party processors - June through September phase-in anticipated.
Chuck Martino's "Facesitters 3" For Coast to Coast
I was over at Rob Spallone's shooting house Thursday for this Chuck Martino video.
I arrived at 9:30 AM, shortly after a big argument between Rob Spallone, on one side, and property manager John and property owner Les on the other side.
At one point, John went into a karate stance and it appeared that the men would come to blows. Rob, Jim DiGiorgio and Rob's assistant Gary surrounded John. But no fight broke out.
Instead, the parties yelled at each other until they'd gotten rid of everything on their minds. The property people were concerned about Spallone paying the electricity bill, whch has skyrocketed.
Rob assured them he would, and then they all returned to good relations.
Rob drove away for a few hours, got a check for the owner, and everything seemed peachy when I left at 3:15 PM.
Rob's lease of the property in Sunland expires June 31t. Then he'll move on, probably to a warehouse.
For Les, the owner, it's been a tough past few months. Les says there have been seven fights at the location since Realpornworld.com went on the air in March. And that on seven times, Rob's Rotweiller dog BJ has bit people.
Rob acknowledges the problems. Yesterday, XXX fought with YYY. Rob
banned his buddy XXX from the property. Last week, XXX fought with
production manager Johnny Thrust.
Wednesday night, Rob was showing his mother-in-law Realpornworld.com.
Rob: "I go to hit office and I hit chat right next to it. And these two f---ing girls are eating pussy. And I'm chatting to them and they're not even answering. They're having too much fun. I call up and she says, what's the problem? The girl is there nude and she's showing her pussy. Yeah, but I'm writing and nobody is answering me.
Kendra: "Jay Cee jumped in and f---ed Johnny Toxic's 25-year old girlfriend with a strap-on dildo. And she ain't even in porno."
I overhear Rob on the telephone talking to Joey Buttafucco, who became famous in tabloids for his relations with teenage Amy Fisher. Rob begins the conversation by making sure that Joey's phone is not tapped. Hanging around Rob is like what I think it would be like to hang around wiseguys.
Chuck Martino says that director Bud Lee hit his car the other day.
Chuck: "James Noah walked up... 'Chuck, Bud hit your car on accident.' Why didn't he tell me? 'Well, he told Jerry T, and XXX... He was afraid you might ruin your sex scene.'
"But Bud took care of it. He had insurance. He did the right thing. I said, 'Bud, I understand that these things happen.' I have a lot of respect for him."
Martino shows me boxcovers for his new production company "Philmore Butts Home Video" (started with the blessing of Yosef and Rita at Factory Home Video, which started the Philmore Butts line and the original Seymore Butts line).
Chuck: "This is my latest Philmore Butts. Everything is gaping holes. Every scene is gaping assholes, ass-to-mouth, threeways... Three releases a month to start... "Sugar Daddy Sweathearts," "Always 18" and "Philmore Butts.""
Today Chuck's shooting Facesitter 3 by George Kaplan for Frank Rothstein's Coast to Coast.
Leisure Time's plans for shooting an all-HIV positive movie have been put on hold. Ron Jeremy will direct.
Tina Cherry just did a squirting instructional video for Seymore Butts. And she appeared in Leisure Time's first feature in six years.
Gwen Summer, a slender redhead, does the first scene of the day with Herschel Savage. She's married to production manager Johnny Thrust.
Gwen entered porn three years ago. Then she took a year off to have a baby. She put on and then lost 70 pounds and returned to porn.
Cameraman James DiGiorgio has me guest direct the day's first sex scene. I ask for three positions finishing with a facial pop shot.
I talk to Greg Cherry aka Mark Cummings about the thrill of doing double penetrations and double vaginals.
Greg: "It sends me giddy when I get to rub my penis against the massive tool of Dave Hardman."
Tina: "He hates doing double penetrations. Greg gets mad every time. I'm about to do my first double penetration for Metro and he won't work with me."
Chuck introduce me to his new girlfriend Jeanie Rivers, delicious slender blonde. His previous blonde girlfriends have included Shay Sweet and Farah.
Chuck talks about Jeanie's former manager Cam Smith: "He's a straight out f---ing pimp. Roy Garcia is good to business with. He gets a lot of cute pretty girls. Cam was taking 10% of Jeanie's money and $65 from producers... So after a couple of weeks, she says waitasecond... Cam went off... Started talking s--- about me. He' a f---ing pimp."
Jeanie: "Well, he did help me out mentally with this business. When I came in, he was really good helping the girls, making sure that people aren't messing with you..."
Chuck grabs the tape recorder and shuts it off.
Chuck: "I don't want nothing positive about Cam... He's a f---ing pimp..."
Jeanie, who appears in 30 movies, stars in the latest edition of Philmore Butts.
Chuck: "I let her be like Shane was. She goes around and talks to all the girls. Tells them to take their clothes off. Don Fischer and I sat back and started laughing."
Greg: "We were in Brussels [for a sex fair]. And we get really drunk at the bar one night and Tina decides that we should have a woman. First she scouts the club out and there's this one young pretty girl. Tina goes sits with her and the other guy, talking to them. They're married. And he's willing to pimp his wife out. But we did not go through with that.
"Someone said that we should go to the front desk and they will call a prostitute for you, a real pretty one. So she goes to the front desk and it is about US $500. The girl takes forever to get there. I go downstairs to bring her back to the room and then she explains that she does not have lesbian sex. So we ended up giving her a kill fee."
Tina: "I'm the one with the money. I'm the one who called you... And you won't have sex with me? And she got mad and left."
Luke to Greg: "You didn't get to poke her?"
Greg: "It wasn't a big deal to me. She [Tina] was the one who wanted a girl."
Luke: "How do women have sex in real life?"
Tina gets embarrassed.
Tina: "Lots of pussy eating."
A porner had friends at Operation Desert Storm who report that the French solders routinely f---ed the Iraqi male prisoners anally.
Martino looks deeply tanned after four days vacation in the Miami South Beach. Chuck left his girlfriend behind.
Greg: "Chuck is pretty buffed for an old dude. He's got a cut hard body, I really fancy him. I wish he'd take me right now, pretend that I am an Iraqi prisoner."
A Playboy exec (Shawn Ricks girlfriend) says the company still gets calls complaining, how can you put a white woman with a black man? And calls complaining about two women having sex.
Porner: White blondes with good boobs get about $1200 for a boy-girl scene. A beautiful Caucasian brunette, about $1000. A black girl or mixed race, about $600. A white blonde is the ultimate status symbol, across all cultures.
Jeanie only works with girls and Martino. She quit doing guys late last year during the gonorrhea outbreak.
Rivers did a rough sex scene with Anabolic last year that left bruises.
Jeanie: "It was a four way with Vince Vouyer and Erik Everhard. And I have never walked out of a set feeling like total garbage and been f---ed so hard. Like bad hard. I was hurting for two days afterward. And it was in a warehouse on these stacked ply-things of wood with cardboard over it. I had bruises all over my back and sides. It was rough sex. And I like rough sex. That was not rough sex. It was abusive sex."
Greg: "I saw Vivian Valentine in Mexico after she'd just done a Rough Sex video for Anabolic. She was bruised. They were pinching her."
Jeanie: "I did a good threeway in Pickup Lines 44 with a Czech girl and an Asian girl."
Jeanie keeps hiding her cigarettes while I snap photos of her.
Luke: "I keep getting these guys writing in saying 'take photos of girls smoking.' They love it."
Jeanie: "Oh do they? Ok. I'll blow a big one out for you."
Luke: "That was a great one. Thanks."
She gives me some great smoking pictures.
Luke: "It's interesting the different fetishes guys have."
Jeanie: "Yeah, yeah."
Luke: "Do you get off on pictures of men smoking?"
Jeanie: "No. Not smoking. I haven't gotten to pee on anybody yet."
Tina: "You've got to pee on someone. It's way better. I peed in Alec Metro's mouth. Yeah, it was part of the scene. I gave him four mouthfulls."
Greg: "She'd been taking vitamins so she had really yellow pee."
Tina: "He loved it."
Greg: "I love Alec. He is the s--- dude."
Jeanie: "I did a scene with Alec."
Tina: "He has a foot fetish. He wanted me to run outside and get them [feet] all dirty. Then he likes to suck on them. He also likes you to pull his mouth open and spit in it. He loves it. Just yank his mouth open and spin in it."
Greg: "Alec likes the really nasty sex. And it's cool. It comes out great on film."
Tina: "We've done some crazy scenes. Alec will do anything."
Greg: "Alec is an attractive man. We both work out at Gold's Gym. I see him in the mornings and watch him from afar. He's got big shoulders. He's a big boy, like Davis."
Devon: "The day that mainstream porn companies start doing scenes with people s---ting on each other, is the day I leave the business."
Jeanie: "I did a scene with Ed Powers."
Luke: "Did he spit on you and slap you?"
Jeanie: "He wasn't rough with me at all."
Greg: "He's a little lover guy."
Jeanie: "I haven't done anal yet and he offered me good money to do it."
Chuck: "Unless you're swingers, most relationships in porno don't work. Because you're f---ing other people and you're not really swingers... Sooner or later, mostly sooner, you're going to get jealous."
Greg: "And what makes it worse is that you're doing it for money. So not only are you f---ing other people, you're getting paid for it."
Tina: "Sex is a physical thing that happens at the moment. Off camera you make love. There's a total difference."
Luke: "Are you guys swingers?"
Greg: "No."
Tina: "Yeah."
Tina: "Greg will take pussy any where he can get it. He's a pussy mooch. He'll go, 'I just want a little bit and I will give it right back.' I swear..."
Greg: "Won't take but a minute. And I won't tell anybody."
After his sex scene by the pool, Herschel Savage yells for a towel. Devon gets up and gets him one.
Devon: "That was my ambition in life when I graduated UCLA - to be Herschel Savage's towel boy."
Some mainstream people come by and walk around the house. They want to shoot a TV series here. As they're leaving, they find out that there are cameras everywhere and their every move has been broadcast on the internet. A striking Screen Actors Guild actress, a busty beautiful woman, pitches a fit when she finds out. There are no signs up announcing that the place is swarming with cameras.
The mainstreamers did not seem perturb when they walked by people having sex on camera.
Tina Cherry (and Ron Jeremy) recently appeared in a documentary on rebel entertainer Chris Rock and in his video "American Bad Ass" which appeared on MTV last week.
Greg readies to do a scene with his wife on the basketball court.
Greg: "Normally when I work for Chuck, I have him hold my hand so that I can come."
Chuck talks about how he met his current girlfriend Jeanie Rivers: "I was at Sin City. Eric Price asked me to shoot a blowjob movie for him. So I waited until Shay Sweet left, then they called me and I came down. I'm siting in the makeup room with Olivia and Jeanie... Then Shay walks in...and leaves. And Jeanie and Shay go into Shay's car and get stoned. Jeanie comes back in.
"I ask her if she does guys. She says no, because of the gonorrhea scare going around... I tell her about my series... We hung out that day. Then we saw each other at the IA2000 show in Las Vegas."
Jeanie: "I walk into AIM to pick up my test and he's sitting there... I'm talking to Cam, who am I working with? And Cam says, it's him [Martino], over there."
Chuck: "We did a scene. And then we were supposed to go out..."
Jeanie: "He told me, if you come over here [to Chuck's place], I promise you you will not leave. And I haven't left since I came over there."
Chuck: "We did the scene first. Then I said, we will go out a few days later. Well, she didn't call. And I am not one to call a girl. Then a week later she called, and said, well, you don't call me anymore. I said, you didn't call me like you were supposed to... Then I went over and saw her. And I said, 'If you come over, you won't leave.' It's been three months."
Luke to Jeanie: "What's kept you there?"
Jeanie: "We have a fun time together. I really care about him and love him a lot."
Chuck tells me how much he loves Jeanie's dainty feet.
Luke: "Does Chuck have good feet?"
Jeanie: "Yes."
Chuck: "She's a foot person too. Total. She likes to suck on them."
Jeanie: "I like to suck on his feet."
Chuck: "Isn't that weird? But they have to be a cute guy's feet. I've never met a girl who's like that, because I am like that."
Jeanie: "But I am always on his feet, always grabbing his toes, trying to suck it."
Chuck: "Feet and dick."
Luke: "Is he ticklish?"
Jeanie: "Very ticklish. I go and tickle them when he's sleeping and he starts moving around."
Chuck: "About the boy-girl stuff. I mainly produce and direct. Jeanie didn't do other guys before she was with me. So when people say, do you guys only work together... Look."
Jeanie: "When I first got in the business [at age 18], I was doing guys. Then we had that gonorrhea scare... Stopped doing guys. So when he met me, I wasn't doing guys. Now when people say, 'Oh, you're just working with each other?' Well, I wasn't really doing guys...
"Only when I first got in the business and didn't know better. I thought I had to do this and this and whatever I was told."
Chuck: "Michael Raven got her to do some stuff that she normally wouldn't do.
"It's not my decision. She can do whatever she wants. You can't control a 19-year old girl. It doesn't work. Sooner or later they rebell. I look at people and go, look, it is one more guy than she was doing before."
Jeanie: "I am not in this business to be a big porn star."
Chuck: "She could quit tomorrow and it wouldn't even matter."
Luke: "Why are you in the business?"
Jeanie: "I just have fun. I didn't even know I was going to get into the business."
Chuck: "She started doing it for a website."
Jeanie: "Everybody told me how much money they're making off their website... So I decided that I would just come and get a website going and I wouldn't have to do anything else. No movies or anything."
Chuck: "Luke, you know..."
Jeanie: "Only a few girls are making big money off their websites."
Chuck: "How many girls would you say are making big bucks off their sites?"
Luke: "Not many."
Chuck: "You'd think Jill Kelly, but even Jill Kelly is struggling...And if she doesn't..."
Jeanie: "That makes sense. But he had to bring it to my attention."
Chuck: "As far as I know, only Asia Carrera really makes money..."
Luke: "And she puts 50 hours a week into her site..."
Chuck: "So to hear a girl say, I'm in this industry just to make a website... I didn't say anything to Jeanie for three months because I didn't want to burst her bubble.
"If people don't want to hire us together, she does great girl-girl scenes... I asked her, do you care if you just work three or four times a month. No, I don't care. She's from Oregon, and they're not used to making tons of money."
Jeanie: "Not greedy like LA. It's just about having fun and being happy."
As Michael Medved says, liberals say, follow your heart. Conservatives say, do your duty.
Jeanie: "If I am not happy, why even be in the business.
"I danced at a club before and I would like to go back to that..."
Luke: "Some people think there should be a 21-year old age limit to enter the porn industry?"
Chuck: "Yes. Absolutely. She doesn't think like a typical 19-year old. She's more mature. I feel guilty hiring an 18 or 19-year old unless they know what they're doing. Because usually they don't and afterwards they feel bad about it."
Jeanie: "No matter what age you come into this business, you're not going to know anything about the business. You're going to be able to be taken advantage of for a short amount of time no matter how old you are. If you're 18 or 30. If you don't know this business, you are going to come in naive.
"Cam Smith mainly deals with pretty girl and fetish stuff. I did some light bondage stuff, tickling, smothering... That's all I was trying to give Cam credit for but now I know he is not my friend because why, when the money stopped coming from me, he doesn't want to be my friend anymore. He's not calling me.
"We were going to be best friends while the money was coming."
Chuck: "Jim [South] doesn't give a s---. This is a business. I'll get you work. I get paid. I respect Jim. For a new girl, Jim's excellent."
Rivers made her porn debut in Randy West's Up n'Cummers and she's appeared in several more of West's productions. She did a lesbian scene with Dee, April Flowers and Bunny Luv.
Jeanie: "I thought the sex would be more real... More authentic. I had seen all the magazines and movies before I entered [porn]. So I knew coming in what the sex would be like and how open it is...
"I like old pornos [1970s]. I have tons of them that I watch. But of the newer ones, I've only seen 15 or 20 of them.
"When I was 15 yo, I told my mom. 'Mom, you see that movie there. I want one of those. But I want one that is different.' And she actually picked me up one [a porno]. I told her, I want an older one, you know. Where it's more lovin and not all this hardcore stuff. She actually bought me my first porno."
Luke: "And what was your reaction to your first porno? I remember I always blushed..."
Jeanie: "Yeah... Blush and you'd be turning your head and looking [at the screen] from the corner of your eye. Are they really doing that? Kinda being shy about it... I was watching it alone and my mom come in... She'd always been open about sex. And she asked me how I liked it, and I said, 'mom, they're really doing that.' And she's going 'Yeah?'"
Chuck: "Jeanie Rivers gives the best blowjob of any girl I've been with."
Shylock, porn's Jewish moneylender and David Christopher producer, walks up: "I saw Anastasia Blue blow Jack Napier, who has a 16-inch dick. It wasn't natural. She just grabbed him and deepthroated him, and she had tears running down her face..."
Tavalia Griffin, Spain's leading porn star, makes about $400 a scene back home. In Spain, they only shoot about 30 movies a year. So, she makes about $12,000. She came out here to Los Angeles and made $12,000 in her first week.
Jay Cee, who turned 18 on April 1st, takes a break from performing for the Webcam. She sits outside with us and has a cigarette.
Jay Cee regales as with stories of her sexual exploits back in Seattle. She will appear on the Howard Stern show in two weeks with Johnny Toxic, who will talk about his vomiting video.
Shylock: "Don't do it. Do you want a career in this business?"
Jay Cee: "I don't want a career in this business. I just want to do five scenes. I want enough money to get a car, cell phone and to pay my mother."
Luke: "What are you doing on Howard Stern?"
Jay Cee: "I am going on there to puke on a listener. Because Johnny Toxic does a line where girls puke because it is a fetish that some girls have."
Shylock: "Yes, it won the Adult Video Nudes award for worst video."
Jay Cee: "I'm just doing it to get on Howard Stern. I don't give a rat's ass.
"One day I want to make documentaries on animals. Stay on an island for a few months... I don't need to make big money. I just like animals."
On Sunday afternoon, David Christopher shoots another version of his American Cocksucking Championships.
I talk with brunette Czech beauty Daniella Rush, who's making her third trip to the United States. She's got two years to go until she finishes her medical degree back home.
Daniella speaks English, French, some German and Czech.
I meet tall busty blonde Canadian stripper Casha Rae Allias.
Luke: "I write a column on the internet."
Casha: "Oh really? I'm Miss Nude Canada 1999-2000 (in Edmonton). I hand my crown over on the second week of June."
Casha, who only does girls, has been making videos for 18 months. She's represented by Jim South. One day she just walked into his office and went to work.
She started as a stripper eight years ago and has dozens of magazines.
Jeanie Rivers, who's already been through my question routine, starts in on Casha for me, asking her my predictable questions.
Luke: "How did you get started with the dancing?"
Casha: "Money."
Luke: "You just went to a club in your home town?"
Casha: "No, we don't have titty dancers. We have shows. Everybody does shows. It's more theatrical than hustling. There's no hustling. It's illegal to hustle.
"I get started through a talent agency. Up there it's called a dancer agency. You're contracted per week. You get so much pay. If you don't show up, you get fined or sued, depending on if they advertised you in the paper."
I hear that Bridgett Kerkove has a new $50,000 Jaguar to go with her new tits.
Porn star Ellie Ramone is doing her second bachelors degree. She plans to go to law school. Taylor XXX is doing her Ph.D. in psychology.
Shylock says the European girls are easier to work with than American girls.
Shylock: "The European girls all do anal. Here, most of the girls don't do anal. The European girls are more professional. They show up on time. They do their job. They go home. Here, everyone's smoking pot. They're late or they don't show up."
Luke to Daniella: "Where do you prefer to work?"
Daniella: "It is difficult to say because in some ways, it is more comfortable to work here. I can come here and work for three weeks... If I work in Europe, it means one day in Paris. Then next week you go to Italy... You have to travel more and spend more time to go to work.
"Most of the European guys are more professional. They think more about what the director wants to see, and the lights and where is the camera..."
Shylock: "When the Americans say European, they're thinking fisting, pissing... They think everyone in Europe does that."
Daniella did two scenes with Rocco. "I didn't have any problems with him. I worked with Christoph Clark in Budapest and he introduced me to Rocco. It was ok. He asked me before the scene... It was better for me because I could talk with him in English. I told him before we started what I did not like for him to do. And he didn't do anything that I didn't want.
"I've also worked twice with Nacho [a Spaniard who looks like Rocco]. He wants to be like Rocco."
Rob Spallone runs off to go to his son's Little League game.
Rob: "Next time I beat someone up, I'm going to bring a caddy. And say, 'Give me a four iron. Give me a seven iron...'"
Gary: "XXX called..."
Rob: "Ok, get his address and I will go kick the s--- out of him. He's next on the hit list..."
Drew Star Productions bounced checks on numerous porners, including a $1000 check for Dynamite. Now he's trying to get porners to take smaller checks. If they don't, they'll get nothing.
Rob: "He's going to have to deal with me."
Luke: Thank you dear readers for all the compliments on my reportage today on Thursday's shoot. It is enormous work to transcribe all these conversations and edit and upload the pictures. Your thanks makes it worthwhile for me. And it is better all round than when I just troll for free material.
Gman writes: Luke, thank you for the time and effort you put into bringing this great site to the public! I want to echo the comments of another by letting you know the "pleasure" I get seeing pictures of my favorite star's "smoking" ! Very erotic! Please post more and if the opportunity arises let those in the industry know that there is a demand for this type of video in the market place. I have a question if I am not intruding. I can't seem to view any of the pictures in the drop down area. I am using webtv. Again thank you and I look forward to visiting your site often. I will share with my network of friends your site address.
Luke: I don't know why the java drop down menus don't work for WebTV viewers.
Johnathan writes: Just read a post on MrMarcus.com which said Tina Cheri would be doing her first interracial with Lex Steele. Didn't you do a recent interview with her where she said she was not into interracial? Well, I guess if Brittany Andrews could eat her own words so can Tina, just wish someone stick with what they say, or why say it in the first place. Speaking of interracia first, Alexa Rae does her first with Mr. Marcus in the soon to be released " Dreamquest", also with Sean Michaiels talking retirement, he recently has done first time interracials with Danielle Rogers, Rayveness, Brittany Andrews, Lauren Montgomery, and just last week he did Julia Ann in a shoot for her company. Also, Lex Steele gives Krysti Myst her first interracial in Planet of the Gapes 3.
Rumdar writes: Luke, Loved your recent shots of porn sluts at work and play. About that young trollop and the pony tailed sloppy fat guy who looks like a biker frolicking on the grass together. Can we surmise that even corpulent unattractive fellows will get young pussy if they are in the porno business? Hmmmmmmm! And I noticed that each and every one those young slut puppies was sucking on a cancer stick. Do you believe there is a correlation between youth, porno and nicotine? And that Chuck Martino with the sunglasses hanging from the gold chain....too much!!!. Keep up the good work.
Scott writes: I just wanted you to know that I for one appreciate
the pics of all the smoking girls you put on your site. Someone posted
the info to alt.smokers.glamour so I'm sure there will be quite a
few more responses forthcoming. There are a lot of guys out there
with the fetish, see if you can bend an ear or two in the porn industry
about making a video specializing in it, there will be a lot of interest
I'm positive. Thank you once again for posting the smoking pics. If

I'm heading up to Sacramento this weekend for the Free Speech Coalition's lobbying days. Sunday at the Radisson Motel from 3-6PM, you can talk politics with the porn stars. Then Tuesday the porners lobby starting at 8:30 am with a press conference on the capitol steps.
A couple leading members of the FSC met today to strategize and I snapped this photo of the next executive director learning from the outgoing man. 0005031
Rumdar: Luke... Evidently those Rogaine treatments are not working on the Executive Director of The Free Speech Coalition. He may need to switch to Propecia.
Will Jarvis writes on RAME: Just wanted to let you know about the upcoming Free Speech Lobbying Days in the California State capitol, Sacramento. I'll be joining a delegation from the Free Speech Coalition there May 7 - 9 for some legislative training, lobbying and other good stuff. The event's being organized by Kat Sunlove, the FSC lobbyist, who does a lot of good work protecting the First Amendment, particularly how it relates to porn. Among those scheduled to attend are Julie Ashton, Nina Hartley, Annie Sprinkle, XXX, Dave Cummings, AVN editor Mark Kernes, activist Bobby Lilly and attorney Jeffrey Douglas, plus many others. This annual event usually makes the evening news, so you may see some of your favorite porn stars on the TV.
Brandy Alexandre writes: Having gotten the responses I have from the Free Speech Coalition (FSC) on the Forest Lawn Affair, talent absolutely SHOULD NOT bother to represent them to the state capitol. Apparently, they DO NOT care about what happens to the stars and have no intention of trying to address the issues surrounding fallout from having been in this industry they're trying to convince legislators is so wonderful in its pursuit of first amendment rights. Their only focus is how to keep the distributors and retailers out of trouble by enacting legislation around that.
Performers shouldn't have anything to do with the FSC until they add something to their agenda that seeks to protect talent in and out of the industry as well. And what they COULD add would actually protect everyone: adding pursuit and participation in legal constitutionally protected activities to the Civil Rights Act.
You know how talk shows suddenly start calling porn stars for the sweeps shows? It's because they attract viewers and ratings. And the nature of that attraction is because "porn stars are bad" and so they never have any intention of making a porn star look good. It's a similar situation with the FSC. Talent is being used for gain that does not benefit them in any way, shape or form.
I might also add a complaint that I've had for YEARS, in that talent who are paid members of the FSC are not given the same consideration as other FSC members. I am a member due to a clerical thing from last year's Night of the Stars. How come I don't know anything about these FSC activities at the Capitol? Because talent is second class and unimportant except for the ones FSC specifically "invites" to draw attention to themselves for show-offs that don't do said talent a lick of good.
FSC President Gloria Leonard writes Luke: As you know, I have not deigned to contact you for many months because of your mean-spiritedness and mostly boring, trite content but I must respond to everyone's favorite victim, Brandy Alexander, and her totally misinformed perspective of the Free Speech Coalition.
Our work is to improve conditions for EVERYONE in the adult business with particular emphasis on combatting censorship in all its ugly forms - dance clubs, libraries, retail stores, and yes, manufacturers and distributors, without whom, there'd be no product now, would there?! Brandy's situation with Forest Lawn falls way outside the parameters of our goals but perhaps she'd be wise to remember that I did, in fact, have more than one phone conversation with her in an attempt to give her some assistance and guidance, referring her to an appropriate attorney. EVERY member receives our FREE SPEAKER newsletter so it's entirely possible that Ms. Alexander has either moved or chose not to renew her membership. If she were truly interested in what we're doing, our website address is www.freespeechcoalition.com. Additionally, our sister organization, PAW (Protecting Adult Welfare) was designed EXPRESSLY to assist talent with all sorts of problems - both personal and professional. Brandy, I do believe you worked too long among the dead so my advice, is appropriately enough, to get a life! Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery; try to enjoy the NOW!
Where did you [Luke] get the idea that I'm the "outgoing President"? I've still got over a year-and-a-half left to my term, having been handily re-elected (with the most votes of any of the other Board candidates). Thank you, my ankle is healing slowly and no, family obligations prevent me from attending this year's Lobbying Days event. But I'm confident you'll find plenty of other people's balls to break.
Luke: Did you make AVN's conference in Hawaii?
Gloria: No, but I was there for Thanksgiving since that's where my xxx and xyc live. I see these people all year long, the last thing I want to do is spend a week locked up in a hotel with them; we sent our next Executive Director, Bill Lyon, so that he could become acquainted with key industry people.
Kianna Bradly Gets a Tattoo
Kianna Bradley phoned Luke Wednesday evening and left this message: "I'm getting a tattoo right now. It hurts... It's Kanji [Japanese] letters "Fear nothing." And a pretty flower on my pussy..."

Today Lgi distributor file suit against kendra Jade & Craig Vasilloff for volations of the exclusive contract for Miss Jade for Web and flim contracts. Jade & Vasiloff were both sued in federal court in delaware for undisclosed amount of Damages.
LGI's Bo writes: Hedi Ho, f--- you and your threats.You owed me for building and hosting your web site 2500.00. Also you did two sales since we did the work for your site a single membership for 1 dollar and a retail sale which you are owed a 25.00 commision on that. We would have sent you a check but you never supplyed your real name and SS# and a address to send them too.
Luke: Kendra Jade says she has not been served yet.
A Further Letter to Marc
Marc Putative writes: actually, what i wanted mr. christian to comment on was the likes of U2 (or, a more current example, the rock group creed), masking their born again beliefs in exchange for hitting the big time. aren't they more hypocritical and/or misguided than the whole l-keford.com chever?
Lord Peter Luther Christian writes: Dear Luke:
The bible teaches us Christians to be "as wise as serpents." Just as the enemies of Christianity have insinuated themselves in very high places without revealing themselves to the world, so too must we occasionally do likewise to fight them. There is room in our struggle against Satan both for the publicly professing Christian who stands his ground in the public square and absorbs all the blows that the pharisee has the energy to land, as well as the closeted Christian who operates sub rosa in fields where witnessing Christians are not tolerated. (Rock music, television, movies, the news media, etc.) The answer to your question is no, these rockers are not hypocrites - they are fighting Satan on his own turf, and winning. (They have come close to winning YOU over, have they not?)
You can see why we want to win Luke over to our side, even if he must practice his Christian faith in secret. The jewish Luke F-rd is at most a small irritation to the porn industry. But a Luke F-rd who has Jesus on his side (acting through His hundreds of millions of Christian soldiers) can set the pornography industry of California ablaze!
Let us be as wise as serpents
Lord Peter Luther Christian, OBE
Mark Kernes Gossip
Luke: In the April issue of AVN, Mark Kernes condemned gossip under the headline "On Gossip and other forms of rape."
Mark wrote: "I can't imagine a person who's reasonably at peace
with him/herself and reasonably confident of his/her own abilities
and philosophy giving a rat's ass about why Starlet Y has split with
Boyfriend Z, or whether Actress Q is unhappy in her contract with
Studio R or Website S. Certainly, if one knew any of these people
personally, one might want to commiserate with the putatively aggrieved
- assuming one were on intimate-enough terms to have been told directly
about the predicament. That's human nature; solicitousness from afar
isn't. You don't "feel their pain.""
Today on GeneRoss.com, Mark Kernes writes: "Award-winning cameraman
Barry Wood and veteran actress Sindee Coxx were married Monday afternoon
at the couple's home, whose whereabouts are shrouded in secrecy lest
Wood be further stalked by an ex-girlfriend.
"The wedding took place a little after 2 o'clock in the afternoon, under a vine-decked wooden arch highly reminiscent of the one under which Ginger Lynn, Chloe and Devin Wolfe were "married" at the end of VCA's Torn... except this time, Cyril Yano wasn't cast as the minister; Wood got a real one."
Luke: You can find more such gossip from Mark at GeneRoss.com.
How Should Facials Be Received?
Snow Leopard writes on RAME: We'll leave believability out of it for a moment because really, it can go either way. Ie, he would like to be inside, shoot down her throat. She in her moment of control gains advantage by having him outside. How it is done so the audience sees it can go so many ways.
She can be in control jacking him. He can have control and therefore give a dominance angle by having one hand on her hair, pushing her down, jacking into her face. There are some points to having her with mouth open, tongue ready (not necessarily out) and him coming on her tongue. Having him place the head in the valley of her closed lips and then letting it splatter I think would be wild. Equally, though we lose the camera angle, grabbing her head and shoving hard to deep throat and gagging could be something that could push me over the edge in certain cases. Or him jacking with huge hands into her sweat drenched face while she is on her knees (with or without another boy around). And so forth. There is no set formula. One scene one day may not thrill me the next but be perfect the day after.
Response To The Goyim
Chaim Amalek writes: Luke, your trannie friend "Goddess" (can we call her "Shiksa Goddess"?) asks: "Explain the fact that Christie Brinkley, Rachel Hunter and Cindy Crawford--all supermodels and (GASP!) thin--are also all divorced." To answer this question I must begin with my own ignorance. What point are you trying to make?
To better understand the question and your argument, please flesh out the question by telling us who dumped whom with respect to each of these beautiful women, and also please tell us the likely sexual orientation of each of the individuals involved. It might also help to know the economic/social status of each woman's current and former husbands. Otherwise, one cannot begin to answer your question.
By the way, the Forward has an interesting article about a United Jewish Communities failed effort to launch a "Jewish idea incubator" that has come a cropper because so few jews contributed new ideas to it for saving jews from the temptations of goyishe life and christian love. They even have a web site (which the article stupidly fails to provide). You should track this down, put on your thinking skullcap and make your contribution.
On the cover of the current issue of Forward is a color photo of Cindy Crawford who is being honored by Yeshiva U's school of medicine with its "Spirit of Achievement" award. The article questions the wisdom of this award, as she is married to a jew (hooray for us!) who otherwise presumably would have married some mousey little short jewish kvetch in Manhattan, had he not married her. Seriously, you should buy a copy of this and check it out - but BEWARE! - likely you will be much less satisfied with your current hebrew honey.
Finally, I urge every one of you who cares about your fellow human being to buy a few thousand shares of Pharmaprint stock (now OTC, I think - it just got itself delisted) so that I can dump this crap at less of a loss. Those of you who do not are f---ing antisemites who should all get sued by hungry jewish lawyers who then sell the story of your hatefulness to Hollywood.
Goddess writes: Too bad you missed Oprah yesterday, Luke, you might have learned something. Men and women have affairs NOT because the other person is cuter or sexier or *thinner* but because of the way the other person makes them FEEL. Tell Chaim to figure it out for himself. I have more important things to do. Like pick out a wig and gown for the evening, and find some woman to teach me how to put on make-up....
J.D. Considine writes: Luke -- Regarding Chaim's "Response to the Goyim," considering that you/he are of the faith but not of the tribe, doesn't that technically make Chaim goyim as well? As for the thread about Jewish music, it would be worth checking out the work of Peter Himmelman -- Bob Dylan's son-in-law! -- whose solo albums are very much informed by Judiasm (particularly Jewish mysticism). On the other end of the spectrum, there's John Zorn's group Masada, which does free jazz-style treatments of traditional Hebrew folk melodies. Very intense, but quite uplifting.
Luke: Both Chaim and I are members of the Tribe. All members of the Jewish faith are members of the Tribe though not all, in fact most are not, members of the Tribe are members of the Faith.
A menstruating Lynne L-patin writes: I had the most gloriously unclean week....now that my reproductive ability has returned after a year's stress and trouble, I am even more beautiful than I was when last you saw me.
Fortunately I am not the average woman in any way. I see plenty of women in their early thirties, their reproductive abilities in full flower, who are fat and sloppy and unkempt. Are they more attractive than I am merely on account of their youth? Hardly! Shall I do an experiment to see how sexually desirable I am?
Shall I hit the bars and the streets and see how many men will have sex with me? Think I can handle 365 a year? Or should I take a day off for Rosh Hashonah?
I was surprised to see how many personal ads from married men appeared in the listings. Most of them said something to the effect of "my wife has lost interest in me." Not the other way around. All these guys want is a good, porn-style encounter with a no holds barred hot chick like me, dressed in my slut clothes and make-up and telling them how hot and gorgeous and fine they are. Why have their wives lost interest? Perhaps THESE MEN are fat and dowdy? Perhaps THEY lie around the house with the TV remote glued to their sweaty hand while their wives hold down full time jobs AND do 99.9% of the housework? It's hard to feel passion for someone you resent.
If a man is head of his household, which is your conservative, traditional viewpoint, it is his responsibility to maintain the sexual spark by setting the standard for his wife, and by making sure she receives the emotional and financial support she needs to maintain her youth and beauty if that is what is important to him.
Newt Gingrich is the guy who served divorce papers on his wife when she was in the hospital being treated for cancer. He's a toad. A powerful one, but a toad nonetheless. Should I have abandoned my husband when we learned his cancer would make him impotent for the rest of his short life? Would that have made me more desirable to my next husband? Or a better person?
Goddess is right: A marriage involves two people, and you aren't ready to be married. You live in a universe of one -- yourself. When your power quotient improves once you make your television debut, you will become far more desirable and have thousands of women from all over the country begging for your attention. I think we should run a disclaimer at the end of the credits: "Yes, he's beautiful, but he's a WOT, and shallow as a mirage. Find yourself a nice local man who loves you."
Well, I'm off to the cemetery to find a nice plot to decompose in for the rest of the day. Enjoy your mirror.
Lynne writes the buyer of her movie "The Adventures of Super Dave":
Dear Alex:
I will put a couple copies of the movie in the mail today.
As I mentioned on the phone, this is not the average porn movie, nor was it intended to be from the start.
What I want to do is to submit it as a pilot for a "series" about the porn industry.
Originally David Hardman, who has amazing acting ability which no one makes use of, was supposed to be my partner, and we would have done ensemble comedy. With David's defection, (or is that defecation?), Luke filled in to help me out.
Luke and I did a lot of work together over the ensuing months, and he is really committed to the idea of expanding his career as a commentator on the porn industry into the cable television arena. As you will see from the tape (Luke's footage was shot last September), he has a good camera presence. The mainstream media loves him -- he's had worldwide press.
The show would have his name and be a TV version of his website: news, interviews, skits and satire. I'm looking for a Comedy Central feeling -- irreverent and edgy, with porn talent as both regular cast and guest stars. Nothing like this has ever been done, and the world wants it and is ready for it. Luke and I, together, have the writing skills, production skills and media recognition to put it together and put it over.
When you watch the tape, look for not only the "traditional" soft version in which the sex continues to climax, but also look for the comedy version in which the sex scenes fade out after the action begins. What we need to know is what length that version should be to be considered a "show."
My editor wants to add in footage of me both as myself and as my porn alter ego, Dianna Roth, commenting upon the movie and myself. I don't know that it is necessary, but I value his opinion, and can make a trip to Los Angeles to shoot this and oversee the balance of the editing.
Luke: Here's an excerpt from the San Francisco Chronicle:
It was a big day for the fat at San Francisco City Hall yesterday as a committee of the Board of Supervisors unanimously passed legislation that would ban discrimination against them.
``We don't need a diet. . . . We need an end to discrimination,''
fat rights advocate Marilyn Wann told the panel that considered Supervisor
Tom Ammiano's legislation.
