Kid Vegas Parties

At 8:30 AM, Kid Vegas phones (there's a party in the background): "Guess what? I did a Bukkake scene with 54 guys and Allison Kilgore for Jim Lane and Notorious. Journalist Marc Starr was over there, shooting for his magazine."

Luke: "Isn't there something gay about 50 guys jerking off?"

Kid Vegas: "Yeah, I think it is kinda gay but f--- it, if I have to do it, I'll do it for Jim. I'll just focus on the girl and get out of their as soon as possible. I heard that you like Allison Kilgore?"

Luke: "Yes, I do."

Kid Vegas: "What other girls do you like?"

Luke: "I'm pretty easy. I like about half of them."

Kid Vegas: "We've been partying all night. Amia More and Arroyo Shaft [male performer] is here. I'm still not talking to Johnny Toxic. Nobody knows what happened to him. Amia More is freaking out, she's pacing the house. We've been drinking and smoking weed. We've got three girls here and the son of parents who own a big mainstream acting agency. He's doing drugs with us.

"I'm renting a tank for my next movie, Kid Vegas Superstar. I'm going to shoot some of it this weekend in the desert. We'll be shooting more guns, f--- the police. My first movie, The Whoremaster, comes out Monday. I think my second movie, Viva Kid Vegas, is a lot better. They're already edited it.

"I crashed my car this morning. I went into AVN the other day and passed out a bunch of my boxcovers. On Tuesday I'm going to Dragonfly for a big industry party. I'll get free drinks. I'll show up in a stretch limo with ten girls.

"I did my first gangbang as Kid Vegas today. Four guys did Sonya Red for El Nino films. Bruno forgot to show up. I saw Temptress tonight. She's in the new issue of Club magazine."

Amia More stands 5'7" and measures 36C-24-36. Her breasts are natural. She says she's appeared in mainstream movies for three years before she entered porn. Her first porno was Bobby Sox for Vivid, and she says she did not even realize it was a porno until she got there. Amia only lasted one day. She made her full-fledged entry into porn on May 24, 1998, her birthday, when she turned in a boy-girl scene with Jeremy Iron, the husband of British ex-porn star Kiss.

Amia: "My landlord kicked me out because the other day a bomb went off outside my apartment. I think Kid Vegas did it. I have to find a new place to live and I just moved in here.

"Kid Vegas and I are double trouble. He's met his match.

"They flew Sonya Red and I to Chicago separately for the Jerry Springer Show. I did not realize how big she was going to be [Sonya stands six feet]. I had to take off my boots, whip off my dress, and only wearing a thong, I had to dive into the mud [chocolate pudding to wrestle]. She tried to push my head down into the pudding. 'Do you give up?' Something snapped inside me and I freaked. I bodyslammed her and said, 'how do you like me now?' and everybody cheered me. My adrenalin went insane. I had pudding in my ears, nose...three orifices. It should air May 4 or 5.

"I have this New Times with you [Luke] on the cover. I read about you a long time ago. Tony Tedeschi and I went to this coffee shop down the street, the Boom Boom Room, and read it together. 'This guy sounds f---ing crazy. I have to meet this guy.' And then I got on your website the other day. My friend Mike Barbella was showing me all this stuff about me.

"I used to only work with Jeremy Iron but we broke up earlier this year... Today I'm auditioning for a band. I sing and play bass. And I'm going to start working at the bikini bar Hollywood A Go Go on Cahuenga and Victory Blvds.

"I love this industry. I've started shooting my own scenes.

"I've worked under five different names. Jeremy chose Amia More. I didn't want mainstream people to catch on [that she does porn]. But now everybody knows. My mom knows. 'What are you doing? This is going to haunt you for the rest of your life.' It's all good. And they're still hiring me to do mainstream work.

"There aren't many people in the business that I'm compatible with... So I thought I would just film me and Jeremy. But then people get sick of shooting the same couple. I wanted to see other people and still stay together but he couldn't handle it. But now he's with my ex-girlfriend, who I was living with two months ago. She's 19, but ugly. She has a nice body. Then he moved in downstairs from me. And he's still married to Kiss. He's such a scumbag.

"He just did it because I was hanging out with his best friend. But then he got mad at me because I was doing his brothers, Brick Majors and Brian Surewood. He flipped out, 'if you're going to be sucking his dick, then go to sleep in his bed.'"

Amia More names Taxi Tails 5 as her best video. "I did a cool scene with Tom Byron the other day. It was the most enjoyable anal sex I've ever had, and he's the biggest guy I've ever had. And I did a gnarly blowjob for Extreme too, left a snail trail across the room. For Cocksmokers 6."

Kid Vegas comes back on line: "I hurt my shoulder in my accident this morning. The airbags didn't come out, luckily, so I didn't mess up my face. I was going 45 mpg. But it was raining and I slid...

"I've broken up with Priscilla James. She's supposedly dating some guy who's a trumpet player for a band. She's out of the business. She comes by Notoriouis all the time begging Paul, one of the owners of Notorious, for money. I don't know if she's doing any sexual favors for him, but I've heard rumors... She denies them and gets defensive so I think that maybe she does do sexual favors for people for money. She's not doing porn anymore and has to pay her rent."

Los Angeles Times on the Trail of Paul Fishbein

Los Angeles Times reporter Scott Collins met for over an hour with AVN publisher Paul Fishbein Wednesday, drilling him on allegations of corruption against his magazine. Collins is writing a profile of Fishbein and AVN for the Times business section. Give Scott the Scoop here.

Milton Luros Dies

From www.geneross.com: "Industry legend Milton Luros, founder of the original Parliament News and London Press was laid to rest at Groman-Eden Wednesday in Granada Hills. Luros known as "the king of magazines" is considered the last of the oldtimers in the adult business. Along with Reuben Sturman, Michael Thevis and Michael Zaffarano, Luros formed the industry's original four horsemen. The four virtually created the porno business in the late 1950's and early 60's. Luros died Monday after a lengthy illness. He was 87 years old and lived in Northridge, California."

Luke: Consider these "four horsemen" credited with starting the porno industry. Luros chiefly made his fortune through piracy and corporate shell shuffling, which was imitated by porn godfather Reuben Sturman, who dealt in child porn and bestiality, cheated massively on his taxes, and worked closely with such mobsters as Gambino capo Robert DiBernardo. Michael Thevis has been convicted of murdering competitors. Michael Zaffarano was a captain in the crime family of Joseph Bonanno and Carmine Galante. A long time partner of Zaffarano and a former member of the DeCavalcante family, DiBernardo joined the Gambinos in 1976. He was murdered in 1986 by the order of John Gotti. To folks like Adult Video News, Edward Wedelstedt and Russ Hampshire, these four horsemen are heroes of free speech, right up there with the authors of the Declaration of Independance and the Magna Carta.

Luros leaves behind his sons LA Superior Court Judge Michael Luros and Dr. Richard Luros.

Milton donated tens of thousands of dollars to Jerry Brown's campaign, just like pornographers today adore Clinton. It's no coincidence that people of similarly low moral character like each other.

I've heard that Rob Black repeatedly pushed one of his ex-contract girls to have sex with a buddy of Rob's. "To do a scene without a camera." She refused and may testify against Black for trying to pimp her.

Hottest Candida Royalle Flicks?

I've read a lot about Candida Royalle in books and mainstream newspapers and magazines. I've seen her on TV. And she's on the April cover of AVN, as one of the directors of the decade. I don't understand why there isn't much discussion of her movies on RAME. Which are the hottest movies that Candida directed? How would you analyze her directing style? More like Orson Welles or Stephen Spieldberg? Which scenes that she orchestrated make you want to wank wildly?

Ted replies: "All of her stuff up 'till about 1996 is very, very soft. "The Gift", for example, is basically soft-core until the final scene with Shanna McCullough and Mark Davis, which though hot, is also short. You have to look at the newer stuff and you will see a trend towards the more explicit. "One Size Fits All" is actually full-fledged porn, but still retains Candida's sensibilities for always being geared towards a woman. Great scene with Melissa Hill.

"Eyes of Desire 1" and "Eyes of Desire 2" (which is clearly one slightly longer production, broken into two) are also very good. Candida shoots her first anal scene with Mickey G. and Missy in part 2, but she said it didn't go so good for Missy or herself... In part1 Tom Byron and Chloe do a fantastic scene with a cum shot at the end that is slightly different than usual.

"If you have a wife or girlfriend who is repulsed by pornography, Candida Royalle is the way to go, without question. And, the newer stuff is explicit, and I would insist, a hell of a lot hotter than a lot of the crap out there, because Candida knows what she's doing and has been in the industry I think just as long as the likes of John Leslie. People shouldn't be so hard on her because she supplies erotic content for women to appreciate, and what's wrong with that?"

TheWanderer: "Candida Royalle's films always get coverage because the initial marketing allowed her name to be mentioned in all of those venues as the "official" maker of politcally-correct porn.

"Most other reporters will do no other research and find out no additional info, because of their distaste/fear/hostility to the topic of porn. They simply read the *last* article on porn, note her name, and then move on. Sort of like Details magazine constantly writing articles about Matt Zane as the "porn guy of the '90s" , when most of us here on RAME can barely tolerate his product.

"We don't much discuss her movies because her movies don't do much for us. But the next time you're asked to recommend a movie for the smut novice -- she's the way to go."

Panurge: "Candida Royalle specializes in what I like to call "porn with training wheels" -- basically soft-core stuff made for an audience of timid middle-aged housewives who weren't ready for real porn. She had a tiny niche market for this stuff (which wasn't bad, as far as it went, whch wasn't far enough), but under some gentle pressure form her distributor and back (Adam and Eve), she's been getting more explicit lately. She seems more important than she is because she spends 1% of her time making videos and 99% of her time giving interviews. Whenever one of the networks want to talk to someone about porn, they call either her or Nina Hartley."

Suitcase Pimp Seeks Total Vaginal Control of Aspen Brock

Agent Regan Senter says that someone making believe that they are a family member of Aspen Brock is going around the industry trying to buy up all the product that she has done. Aspen Brock told Regan last week that she knows nothing about it, however other reliable sources have disclosed to Regan that it is just someone [a married Reseda real estate developer] who is f---ing her (Regan f---s her too) that wants to be the one and only dick that goes into her mouth anus or vagina. So king dick is going around the industry trying to get her tapes off the market. As far as I know nobody is cooperating.

On Friday afternoon, Brock had no comment. She just wants this nightmare to end.

Regan: "Aspen Brock has recently completed several movies for Anabolic Video and Diabolic Video. She did her first scene with me and we agreed to release it as a possible TV advertisement for Beautiful Models International and to give her adult photo and video industry publicity and quick fame far far beyond the normal channels of advertising in the adult film industry.

"I am NOT admitting that Playboy offered to buy the demo tape where Aspen Brock seen f---ing her agent in different sexual positions and oral sex as well.

Regan: "After having sex with Regan on film, which is in sale negotiation, she did her first commercial company scene for Extreme Productions, a BJ scene. The next was for a great cool company called Dane Productions where she did her very first anal scene and she took it like a pro.

"Brock also worked for John Leslie, and I was told did an outstanding hot anal scene. Brock worked for Alex Sanders (shooting for CDI) and worked with Brian Sherwood. Sin City hired her thru Michael Raven and she did a great boy-girl scene with John Decker.

"Her pics are up on the wall at AIM including the ones of me penetrating her.

Regan: "I very firmly educated Aspen Brock (as I have done the same with Allison Kilgore) never date or get involved on a personal level with anyone in the industry or anyone you meet thru people in the industry. Then citing J.D. Ram, one of his last pitiful words was "the industry is like my family." Yes my friend if you try to make it your family, look where he is now [dead]. Then turn around and look at the famous (or for this reason infamous) Jill Kelly with the Cal Jammer suicide story. I firmly disagree with the personal and fratranazation that goes on in the industry including now the sex orientated web site crowd (which has become another division the adult/film/photo industry).

"To quote Sharon Mitchell in her introduction tape (with Nina Hartley in agreement) for talent (which by the way I show to almost all of my new talent following the demo tape of course) "THEY (meaning the producers, fellow performers and crew) are NOT your friends they only want to get you for the best price so they can put another mirror on their mercedes.

"Hey Luke how far has you "being friends" in the industry gotton you? We need to try to discourage and stop the fraternazation (not sexual activity) that goes on in the business. How dare Jim South Jr. date talent in the business.

"To me it would appear more morally correct for me, you, Jim South, Reb, Jim Holiday to have casual sex, commercial sex, ask for sex , accept offered sex than ANY casual social or romantic relationship with the girls. LEAVE THE GIRLS ALONE! Stop trying to date them. Stop trying to get under their skin. Let them do their job and go home! Ok, you want to have sex with them, ok fine (whatever the pretext).

"If anybody who isn't a whackadoodle (a word I learnt from Rob Black which he called Jasmin St. Claire in the movie I was in The Pornographer) here is my number- Beautiful Models International 310-207-2534 e-mail- beautifulmodels@webtv.net."

Regan says Brock entered porn in early March, and in eight work days (for Dane, Annabolic and Michal Raven) earned $10,000.

Senter says Aston met the Reseda real estate developer Mark Handel on a porn set. Mark's brother Bill Handel hosts a show on KFI AM 640 Los Angeles on weekday monrings. "Mark came to my talent and said, 'Oh baby, trust me. Don't do this sick porno stuff anymore. Follow me, I will takecare of you. I will leave my wife. You will be my girl. I will give you thousands of dollars a week. You won't have to do this any more.' He impersonated an attorney and told company he was going to take legal action to take her tapes off the market. He promised her the world. He'd come to her hotel room at 7AM and stay until midnight. This lasted about three weeks. This guy pulled her off the market, promised her the world and didn't deliver. "

A Porn shooter replies: "A few words about this lecherous, hypocritical scumbag Regan Senter. This manipulative bloodsucking virus of a man has the balls to urge the talent in this industry to stop "fraternizing" with one another among other things and then goes on to self-servingly exclude "sexual activity" from his list of demands. Using Cal Jammer as an example of the conquences of "fraternizing" makes me want to punch this motherf---er in the face while I'm holding a fully charged Mikita power drill. (Cal) Randy had issues. Issues that went far beyond his relationship with Jill Kelly. JD Ram? Can you spell H E R O I N? You sir, are a disease. You are a man who figured out long ago that the only way you could get laid was to manipulate naive, "straight off the greyhound bus" young girls, and what better way than under the pretext of being an agent. A title that at least suggests some degree of respectability. There is nothing respectable about you however. In an industry that rountinely scrapes the bottom of the barrel, you Mr.Senter are the barrel. Frequently I question my involvement in this business. Sometimes I find myself very depressed as I try to justify what I do to make a living with my own personal morality. When I think of you, I feel a whole lot better about myself. I wash my hair frequently and my clothes were manufactured during Clinton's presidency. Most importantly I have NEVER told any girl that she need only have sex with me, on video tape of course so that I can watch it over and over again in narcissistic ecstasy, to become a star. If not for this scam of "compliance tapes" that you dreamed up in your desperation for free female companionship I fully expect that you would have become a card carrying member of the Trench Coat Mafia. You are the the type of scum that an entire 36oz bottle of Tilex could not remove. In short, you are the worst type of human currently available without a prescription. I hate you and I hope you die."

Shooter adds: "Regan Senter interpreted my letter as a threat and I would just like to say that I'm not that kind of guy. I also haven't been to the gym since 1995. I stand behind every statement I made except the part about hoping that you die. I don't wish death upon you. I don't wish you any amount of happiness by any means, but death is harsh even for people like you."

Doom: "Luke, the above rant by "Porner" is an excellent example of how to run someone down. The people who air their grievances on your site, as well as on Gene Mean's, should refer to this rant as the correct way to do it. The topical "Trench Coat Mafia" reference, the clothes crack, and ending by wishing death on Senter makes this a **** (out of five) rant.

"On the topic of Senter, do you think he could be persuaded to put his world view in print? I'm thinking something along the lines of "The Cosmology of Regan Senter." I'm interested in the thought that goes behind saying that "a casual social or romantic relationship" with porn girls is immoral, while "casual sex" with them is moral."

Luke: "For "The Cosmology of Regan Senter," click here - Regan Senter."

Director James DiGiorgio: "Hey Luke, tell Regan to go f--- himself and shove his upside-down morality preachings up his ass. If he "firmly educated" this girl, she's in deep s---. It means she hasn't a clue about the realities of this business. As for Mitchell's advice about producers trying to negotiate better scene rates to put "another mirror on their mercedes," Well, I don't drive a f---ing Mercedes. If I try to negotiate a better scene rate, it's just business... just like any other business. And if I were dating a girl in this biz, and I wanted her to do a scene in one of my flicks, I'd be more apt to pay her MORE, not less than she asked for."

Regan Senter replies to shooter: The man needs mental help. I am not even mad at him. He is nuts. He talks like a looney tune and really needs mental help. Did my statements give him temporary insanity?

For me to say you shoudn t use the industry as your social club or date the girls, but its ok to have sex (since that's the nature of the business and the actual JOB is sex, no big deal).

If someone leads a lonely life and may rely on the industry as their social crutch, I can see how that would drive him mad.

Look, some people believe in Jesus Christ as lord, and others don't. What do my beliefs regarding FRATRANAZATION within the industry have to do with me personally being one of the providers of talent in the industry, and you doing your job in the industry? If I don't agree with you, your morals, your ethics, and even if I personally don't like you, I still would deal with you and most people in the business, because it is exactly that - A Business. A business of sexual performance. Outside of California and Germany most of us would be considered pimps and prostitutes.

If everybody acted like quasermann, (I quote the Book of Revalation), Woe to the inhabitants of the Earth.

I disapprove of what you say but I defend to the death your right to say it.

I am very straight forward and honest with the new talent that come in to sign up. Most talent are handled in an impersonal business like manner with usually a lengthy presentation, which includes several legally binding agreements stronger than most exclusive contracts of production copanies. They are then given about 15 pages of guidelines about Beautiful Models Intl. It is a privilege to be a part of Beautiful Models International and loyal talent is what makes it work.

I do NOT abuse the fact that talent come to me to request work performing sex and limit the demo tape to maybe less than 3 minutes, and usually maintain a total platonic relatioship with them after that. Unless they reside at my residence or we do a commercial scene together. I have been in business since 1992 and I have found very few girls who have griped about the demo after they have done it. Any issues that I have had with talent stem from OTHER people NOT them or other issues between me and them such as loyalty and maintaining the Beautiful Models International policy.

Different than the free market ad my competition (there are only 2 right?) we are selective about who we take in. It also isn't always based on the best looks.

We need:

1) 2 IDS
2) Average looking and up
3) agrees to perform basic boy/girl sex with the misc. tested male talent of the business.

I run a serious business and I take my job seriously to get as much work for the highest price for the talent in the shortest period of time, trying to keep the ship as tight as possible.

I have no social life, no wife, no girlfriend, no more animals.

If doing a demo tape with talent (since 1992) you feel is personal sexual entertainent then yes thats abot the only thing you can try to attempt to hold against me. As far as advising my talent NOT to fraternize in the business (or with people they meet thru people in the business) I sincerely believe is sound correct moral advice and business advice. It is not my wish to offend even Quasomann by me saying that it is WRONG to fratranize in and around the business and not going say to Great Expectations Dating Service or place a personal ad. I said in my post anyone who doesn't behave like a whackadoodle to contact me. Your post Quasermann was whacko.

James Di Gorgio is a fun-loving guy who likes to party big time and to my knowledge always treated the talent great. If all the people in the biz were as cool as James Di Gorgio than James what you call reverse morality would not exist. I really mean it.

When talent sign up with Beautiful Models International 310-207-4622, I clearly tell them that my reputation is not important, it is yours. You are the talent here. I just book you, promote you and refer you to the jobs, called a provider of talent in the biz.

Johnny Castano

Veteran photographer Johnny Castano phoned from Las Vegas: "I met a girl coming out of the Tropicana [Las Vegas hotel]. A stunning beautiful blonde. I walked up to her and asked her what she did for a living. She said, 'I'm a dancer for Crazy Horse.' I gave her my card and asked her to give me a call someday.

"About three months ago she called me [in early January, 1999]. She came over and did a layout for me. She was in the Marines for over three years. She just had her boobs done. She had unbearable scars on her nipples. I sent her [pictures] to Hustler but they wouldn't touch her because her scars were too bad. I call her but she never calls me back.

"All of a sudden, I look in the April AVN. And there she is, beside the masthead [page six]. I named her Willow Way. I don't know who named her Shay Sweet. You can still see the scars on her nipples. Look how they butchered her.

[Luke later learned from www.geneross.com that the blonde Castano met was not Shay Sweet.]

"She told me, 'the only way I'll do adult movies is if they use a condom.' I'm wondering if she stuck by this? I don't know why she never called me back. I was very nice to her. She says she looks like Pamela Anderson.

"I tried to turn her on to Metro but they didn't like her. I sent her pictures to Morgan [Hagen] at Hustler but he didn't like her. I sent her [pictures] to Allen McDonnell at Hustler. Allen wrote me back saying her tits were all butchered up. I'll tell you how good I was. I sent her the letter I got from Allen McDonnell, the editor of Hustler. She still wouldn't call me. I sent pictures of her to Score magazine and they refused her.

"I was surprised Hustler didn't like her. But Hustler doesn't like girls now with phony tits, except in Morgan's book Busty Beauties. Put on the internet that Johnny Castano has 280 pictures of this girl."

From www.geneross.com 4/28/99: "Jeff Wozniak [PR guy] of Sin City writes: "Gene, as I'm sure you're aware, Luke F-rd ran a piece from photographer Johnny Castano in his Friday, April 23, posting about meeting Shay Sweet and shooting her with her "scarred" boobs. Castano must be confusing Shay with another girl. His article is rife with inaccuracies. I asked Shay about each allegation in the article and she categorically denies all of them. I list them below.

"Shay says that she has never met Johnny Castano and doesn't know who he is. She never met anyone at the Tropicana Hotel in Las Vegas who introduced himself as a photographer, nor has she ever been to the Tropicana. She has never danced at the Crazy Horse in Las Vegas. She's never danced anywhere outside of Texas. She was never in the Marines. She never did a layout for Castano. She has done a layout for Hustler. The most recent session was shot two weeks ago by Clive McLean, with her new boobs, needless to say. She also did a Penthouse layout a few weeks ago, which was shot by Earl Miller, also with her new boobs. She has worked for Metro in the past. She did 10 videos and is on the cover of 5 boxes. She has never heard of Morgan Hagen or Allen McDonnell."

Milton Ingley says that he has never had sex with his friend Debbie Diamond and has not heard from her since she moved to Chicago. Ingley lives between Canada and Europe and is working on a book, presumably about his porn career.

Joshua Shapiro writes about Erotica 99: "Saturday in New York...went into work get a couple of things done, I was waiting for my friend to come pick me up and go to the "Erotica 99" show at the Jacob Javitz Center. Something I was excited about for two months, and it seemed the city was too. After closing down all the topless bars (or making the girls wear bathing suits), I figured this was it. The event I had been waiting for. The excitment built as my friend was late and when he got here with his girl friend and his room-mate in tow, we smoked some grass (which thankfully, New York has some good stuff) and parked in a lot a couple of blocks away from the show. I hadn't smoked in a while, so the anticipation of seeing hundreds of porn chicks and the weed got me euphoric. Walking towards the show I noticed some horse s--- on the sidewalk and looked up right into the mouth of a horse. We had a Mexican standoff for a minute, because I had no idea what the f--- he was doing there (oh god, not part of the show), and I walked on, shaking my head. $30 and five minutes later, it seemed I was in Grand Central Station during rush hour. Between the masses of people the booths contained s---. I mean pure unadulterated s---. "Erotic" paintings, a couple of dildos, a dumb thing that you hang from a beam and sit in to get shagged, computers with "hardcore" web site on them. I didn't need to leave my house for this stuff. Where were the girls? Where was the eroticism? Al Goldstein sat a small crowd around him, and I thought about going an talking to him (my mom's best friend is one of his ex-wives, but she warned me never, never, to tell him where she is), bought lost interest quickly.The coolest thing for me was that I was going around with my friends roommate ( a kid I hardly knew), and I saw Jackie Lick. I had sent her a non-sex oriented story a couple of months ago, and we e-mailed each other a couple of times. She was in the middle of signing a bunch of autographs and I said to her, "maybe I should write for your website" (she had written that to me a while ago). And then she was like, oh my god, whats your name?

"Josh," I said.

And she goes, "Josh Shapiro?"

The kid next to me was floored and I was pretty impressed. We talked for a while, and she was very sweet. That was the best part of the show by far, and somewhat satisfied, I left and pounded a couple of Guiness' in a bar. Hopefully next time, I'll get out to a real show.
