Curtis Interviews Mr Web Review
Luke, as a blonde-headed, blue-eyed red blooded American male, I enjoy porn as much as the next guy. But what's with this Mr. Web Review getting page after page on your site Monday? I read about the guy at rame, at excalibur, at adultvhsreviews.com, just everywhere I go for reviews. I won't tell a lie. He's good, as good as there is, but I was curious why he never reviewed white films. I don't think he likes white stars and still don't, so I emailed him myself... To my surprise he answered my questions, though I thought he'd be a coward.
Curtis: I want to ask you a few questions and don't want to hear one peep about black stars
Web: Peep
Curtis: You don't seem to like white stars so much. You put down Jenna all the time and you never review any white films. Why not?
Web: Well, first of all, I do review white films. Earlier in your email, you said you read my stuff on Rame mostly. Lately, I've been doing the entire My Baby Got Back series which is taking awhile to get through. But I've reviewed white films and enjoyed them. "Electric Sex," for example is one of my current favorites (with Jewel De'Nyle, one of the most beautiful performers in the world of X). As for white stars, I think Jenna is gorgeous, though I think some of her performances are ice maiden. She ain't always there, man. I think Sarah Jane Hamilton is one of the best performers of all time and I started in porn with Amber Lynn. I think Nina Hartley is as important as anyone and I love her ass, though I wish she hadn't altered her top. Taylor Hayes is just too pretty. I'd bring her home to mama. I could go on.
Curtis: Are you African-American?
Web: I'm calabanasian. I'm like tiger woods. oh, and I like golf, too. I'm kidding.
Curtis: Are you going to do more white films?
Web: Yes, I am going to do black films, asian films, white films, gonzo films, anal films. All of them. Come visit me at my new website, The House Of Truth, which should be up by July 20 (www.mrwebreviews.com or www.mrwebreview.com)
Curtis: Don't you think Ginger Lynn is a way better f--- than Janet Jacme
Web: You told me I couldn't mention any black stars throughout this "interview." But, not mentioning any names, the latter is superior to the former.
Curtis: Who are the best WHITE directors and best WHITE films out now?
Web: Well, Curtis, you began your email by basically calling me a racist and now you ask questions like this. That said, "Electric Sex" is hot as are the Freshman Fantasies movies. I like "Conquest" and "Shane's World 17" and, well, come read my reviews in the future. I'm going to hit a bunch of films. And we haven't begun to talk about one of my favorites, Stephanie Swift, who is of Asian descent and is making a slew of top-notch films.
Curtis: Tell the truth, if you didn't have to review white films, you wouldn't.
Web: Curtis, Curtis, you need to take a chill pill. I review films of my choosing. No one is standing over me with a gun (or a burning cross) and saying, "Review Insatiable 2 or we'll let the air out of your tires." I think things will balance, you'll see, though I am glad you are reading my stuff. Stay tuned.
Brad From DangerBoy Video Writes
Hey Luke- Of all the s--- published and submitted to your site, I'm kinda surprised that nobody has mentioned anything about the emergence of the new giant. It seems in a day of scaling down and cutting back on expenses, K-Beech brought out a booth that looks like they picked up a strip club and dropped it in the convention center. I know, I'm loyal and a bit partial, but tell it like it is.....Erotic Angel's Farrah was by far the most exciting dancer at the show. She was shakin all over promoting her newest release, Deep inside Farrah, and she is putting some serious pieces on the board once again. Anna Malle was there doing her tease on Friday before running off for some real fun at the lifestyles convention in Reno. She is promoting her new stuff, Wildlife #5, which is based upon her actual life as a swinger , while introducing newcummers to the biz. The BIGGEST, LOUDEST, and BADDEST ( No, not Kevin.....the booth) also showcased Gina Ryder and Angelica Sin ....while Shay Sweet popped in during every break from her paying gig across the aisle. The times may be changing and things are getting tough, but the boys at BEECH are doing their share of promoting product, and more so, the industry. And NO, I don't get paid to write this s---!
We've found a new f--- toy for Mila. Her name is Katja [Luke introduced her on this site a couple of weeks ago], she is 23 years old, Russian by way of New Jersey, and she has NEVER DONE ANY WORK! She has signed a deal with Dangerboy that not only guarentees her work but it also makes them her exclusive booking agent.Bman says"Yeah, she looks like a nasty slut, but only her friends know for sure and we intend to find out!"Anyway, she has a hot, hard dancer body, tan except the ass, and she is giving up EVERYTHING to Mila."We are gonna tear her ass up like I've been getting done for years". "She thinks she can take my wrecking....I'll f---in f--- the s--- out of her with a dildo while Hardman and Earl tear up that ass together.I WILL WRECK HER!" Down Mila.....good girl. and onto the business aspect...... Any companies intersted in shooting Katia the last two weeks of August should contact George at Dangerboy @ 310-276-4417 or Gspot@dangerboyvideo.com. And oh yes...we have nasty pics for those of you that are legit. DANGERBOY VIDEO 369 S. Doheny Dr. # 508 Beverly Hills, Ca. 90211 888-429-2370
Katya writes: I just decided to write you because some 3 minutes ago I saw my pics posted on your site for the first time. Yeah, I got some letters referred to your site, but I couldn't find them till minute directions I got today from some LA fan. Well, I would like to thank you very much for what you have done for me. Moreover, now after thourough surfing your site I was amazed to see that the adult ent. biz is a whole world, with its highs and lows, with hard work and competition, with its celebs and ordinary "9 to 5" people... You are doing a great job really!!! I don't have any special news. I am in the process of maintaining contacts with BBV guys, namely with Brad. I also spoke several times to Mila who was really sweet and caring - you know this ex-pats thing!:))) I sent them my frivoulous pics I made recently and now I am eagerly awaiting their decision. BTW if you would like me to I can mail you those pics as well. Anyway thank you very much again and I hope to see you in person really soon!
Clifford Cremer Writes from Amsterdam, Holland
A new bill was introduced in Dutch parliament recently raising the legal age of models in pornographic material from 16 to 18. This was mainly done because Dutch police finds it increasingly difficult to determine the age of 'performers' in confiscated pornovids. Some recently confiscated (gay) video's were rumored to show 14- and 15-year olds, which Dutch police couldn't confirm nor deny, even after watching the tapes (the 'performers' were never identified and came probably from eastern European countries). If the bill would pass this would mean trouble for some Dutch porn producers, most notable for the famous 'Seventeen'-line (distributed by Scala), which until recently showed a lot of 16 and 17-year old girls (from Holland and Denmark, the latter allowing models from 15 up to appear in pornographic content). It's not sure wheter the bill will pass, though the main policitcal parties already showed their support for it.
Donald writes on RAME about Salon Magazine Scoops Luke: "In the books section of today's issue of Salon, there is an article about RAME's resident porn reporter/punching bag, Luke F-rd. It quotes Mike South as a "friend," along with Brandy Alexandre and the whole "porn stars' real-names" debate. (I'm guessing the writer lurks on RAME--for research purposes only, of course...) It also mentions Luke's covereage of the Mark Wallace HIV scandal, calls Luke the "Matt Drudge of porn," and gives a surprisingly favorable opinion of his book."
Ultradamno writes on RAME about: "The article was written by a woman and Luke says no women are interested in porn so for Ms. Goldberg to lurk here for any reason other than professional just isn't possible.
"An insult to Drudge. Reactionary weasle with a dumb Sam Spade fedora affectation though he may be, his track record and ethics are at a level to which Ford can only aspire (which is not to suggest Drudge's track record and ethics are, in any way, acceptable). Plus, I can't imagine Drudge saying anything so pathetic as chalking up his interest in porn to a Freudian desire to return to the womb (consider it as sarcasm and it still sounds pitiful. If Ford had any sense he'd be mortified right now) of course Drudge doesn't strike me as the therapy type.
"If you consider giving the reader the impression that the book is an unreadable, butchered mess as a "favorable opinion" then, yeah, this was a real rave up. Somehow, I don't think his publisher's going to appropriate any quotes from it though. Actually, I was surprised at just how harsh the article was considering how heavily Salon's relied on LF quotes in their past attacks on "PC Pro-Porn Feminists" (Talk about a mind bending oxymoron. The way this article's written you'd think people paid attention to Annie Sprinkle's babbling.). The article is a systematic decimation of the man's character, credibility and mental health. For most RAME'rs it's old hat. I thought the graphic was funny, though."
Cindy: "Lots of "straight" guys have done gayporn: Peter North, Mark Wallice, Greg Rome, Tom Byron [LF - do not think so], Eric Price, Frank Towers [Ray Victory, Jake Steed, Julian]..."
Kendra Jade Dumps Luke F-rd
Luke writes to Kendra: "I fear that you don't love me anymore."
Kendra responds: Luke, after a lot of contemplation..i fell that whatever friendship or loyalty i felt towards you is gone. you have continuosly posted things on your site that were uncalled for, and have done so without even verifying stuff with me first. When we first became friends, luke..it was because i felt i could relate to you.As you probably know, most of this industry hates me about as much as they hate you.Although i have since realized that that is/was your intention.You were never looking to make friends.I am not looking to make friends either, but i certainly do not prefer to have enemies.i go out of my way to befriend those that i do meet. Lately, you have become a rather negative person, and it is very hard to defend or to remain loyal to a friend who goes out of his way to hurt people.Not that I wouldnt have defended you , but you have burned me as well by printing obviously untrue, uncalled for stuff. When you become the friendly, personable Luke i remember, please call. But if you wish to continue with your negative outlook on life, i prefer to stay away from it. and that is not to say that i dont care, i just dont want to be a part of it. i wish you all the best . also , remember when you told me to get therapy , and that it was very helpful for you? Perhaps you should not have quit.It seems lately you need it more than ever.
Rob says he does not want anything negative about shay sweet on the computer anymore. it is not right.and dont make him have to repeat himself. thank you luke
A HISTORY OF X Review
From "Bookviews" on www.caruba.com for July, 1999: "Finally, it needs be said that pornography in America and around the world is Big Business. Americans and others spend billions on it annually. That's what makes A History of X: 100 Years of Sex in Film by Luke F-rd so interesting. This is a book about the business of porn and, while it says it's about a hundred years, it's really about the way porn became a major enterprise in the 1960s and 1970s, and how that transformed what was once an illegal enterprise. If you're seeking the salacious, you won't find it in this book, but you will find some interesting and surprising insights about the entrepreneurs and the "stars." And, yes, they were sleazy people doing sleazy things, often paying a terrible price for it."
Pink TV Sucks
Porner writes: From someone who's worked for these guys in their "other business" and no longer working for them. I attended the Night of the Stars this past weekend with my boyfriend who's in the industry and to see this Pink TV crew getting plugged by Jim Holliday made me sick. I used to see these guys have their meetings while I waited in their lounge for a booking, overhearing bits and pieces here and there on how big and bad they are cause they know the big guy at AVN who can get them everywhere and now they got this all mighty Hollywood Producer who's a has been and who's just got out of the big house. And to see my ex manager "I mean dictator" direct a camera guy like a wannabe director with no experience in the industry made me fall out of my seat laughing at the dinner table. To know that this show is being produced by a bunch of wannabe porn big players, who's Parole Officers probably don't know what they're doing. And to watch a silly girl host a show like this is really going to make it on the air once the station finds out where this money to produced the show came from and that everyone involved other than I guess their pink chicks probably doesn't have ankle bracelets, and if the word boron doesn't mean anything. My suggestion to everyone in the biz, before you think pink, think again and ask them to disclose everything. You guys may think that the girls working for you are stupid and not overhear you guys and what everyone that's your buddies say about the real you's, but mistreat us once and it comes back to you ten fold. I feel justice has been served. Good Luck and Don't Bring Other People Down With You In The Process.
Women's Role in Porno
Marcus writes on RAME: I have wondered why there are so few women producing/directing quality porn. I know there are a couple but they only seem to make soft stuff like g/g scenes etc. This is really surprising since a recent survey showed that many of Privates movies are enjoyed equally by women and men (not the roughest but the normal stuff). I can only speak from personal experience since I haven't produced any erotica, but my general impression is that women enjoy hard sex just as much as men. (ok most of them). Anyone done any analysis on this?
Luke: "A woman's place in porn is on her knees sucking a cock."
Jeff: "Wow! Looking to win friends and influence people again, I see."
NF: Luke, you've just blown a book sale.
NiceJewishGirl: "Luke, are you saying that women can't produce or direct? Why can't women be behind the camera as well as on it? Don't you think that maybe, just maybe, women might have better looking men on film, than the standard calicified few there is now? That they (women directors and producers) might actually be looking for more tenderness or caring between the talent than there is now? Don't you think you are projecting your own sexist prejudices to porn lately ("the only place for women is sucking cock", and the other insidious gay thread)? Jeez, sometimes I think you just need to be reeled in!"
PatM: "Men and Women probably enjoy Private videos because the models (male and female) are attractive and the scenes are shot well. Plus, I think that the lush landscapes and beautiful scenery may play a part in the mood of the film."
Jim writes: Luke - saw all that stuff on your site from "nice jewish girl" and all the other gab from you, Rob Black and the others about gay stuff. Let's clarify this for everyone. Any form of sex where it's between a man and a woman is heterosexual. Any! Anal, fisting, gangbangs, etc. If the girl is dressed like a guy, f---ing a guy in the ass with a strapped-on dildo, and the guy is wearing a dress, it doesn't matter. It isn't gay. Never will be. Men insecure about their manhood are the only ones worried about such heterosexual activity being in some way "gay". By the same token, there's nothing heterosexual about a man having sex with a TV or any of those "chicks with dicks". In fact we all know they are really "guys with tits". So if one gets off on that, they may have a valid concern about their latent homosexuality...
One other thing - it's time to stop using "gay" as a way to put people down. I remember that it was a good put-down in junior high also. But doesn't it seem like, after centuries of full-tilt abuse, we adults can lay off the gay people for a while? You could insult your enemies with putdowns related to their manhood, their self-esteem, their willingness to stand up for what they believe in, or their ugliness. Calling them gay is like using a racial epithet on a minority - why do you want to go into that territory? The guy you are calling gay isn't - it's just a meaningless put-down, and in the process you once again make the gay label the worst of the worst. It's got to be off-putting for someone reading who is gay. You take the stance that you are above it all whenever someone in the media interviews you about your site, but then on your site you resort to the same lowbrow namecalling as everyone else.
Irate Porner Complains About Slutty Ex-Girlfriend Porn Star
A porner phoned me Sunday night: Who is this Marc Star dude? He hit you? Me and Rob Spallone will f--- him up...
Put this on your site... When we broke up over Christmas, she f---ed xxx. She got pregnant by him. I paid for the abortion. I took care of her. And now this slut is dating XX, a general manager... I don't find it very appealing. I found out that she's been f---ing him for a long time. And how could she do that with xxx in the next office. And can give you your input, saying how that is not a very nice thing to do...
Luke: That is not a very nice thing to do.
Porner: She pissed me off. She'll never get back with me. It amazes me what a woman will do to get back at a guy.
Luke: And she's still driving the Mustang that you bought her?
Porner: She put down the downpayment. It's in my name. She's the cosigner. Tomorrow that car is going to get repo'd [repossessed] or it will be reported to the police as stolen.
I also want you to print: What does it tell you about a girl who goes from XXXX over to CCC, gets pregnant by XX, and then starts dating his friend. What does that tell you about her Luke?
Luke sighs. These matters are so sensitive...
Porner: Kinda scum, huh?
Luke: Doesn't make me feel real comfortable...
Porner: Do you think she's doing this to motivate me?
Luke: I don't know what turns women on.
Porner: Well, that Mustang is gone tomorrow. I will call the police... I did not lose my job at VVV. I'm going there tomorrow morning. I'll be doing three movies a month. You gave your input to iii. I'd appreciate it if you could read that to me.
III told me he talked to you. And he said that you said some real nice things about me.
Luke: You've always been straight up with me...
Porner: Print today that ddd from sss has been having sex with rrr from eee behind www's back for sometime... And what does that tell you about a girl?
I made her and everyone knows her. GGG made WWW what she is. And for her to do that, and the pregnancy thing... I don't like her anymore. I'm over it. I've got more girls than I know what to do with...
I will cause no trouble at CCC. I will be very pleasant and do my job to the best of my ability. I will not mess with her. But the party's over. If she wants him, she can have him.
Write this, as far as I am concerned, she's white scum from Texas. And if it wasn't for me, I'd hate to see where she'd be at right now. She was doing anal for $500 a scene. When I got a hold of, she didn't work for eight months because I wanted her to understand the business. Then all of a sudden, for anal, she got $1500. And if this is the s--- she wants to pull with me...
I want you to write what you feel in your heart.
Ari says that you told him that if David got rid of me, that would be the worst mistake he ever made.
Luke: Right.
Porner: And Ari agrees.
Galactic Galaxina Writes
A couple of months ago, AVN and then Luke published that stripper Galactic Galaxina was dead. She's not. She writes Luke, and I've cleaned up some of her grammar and spelling.
Hi Luke. They are always saying you never get your facts right... The funny thing on AVN [telling the world that Galactic Galaxina was dead], Kevin Korey never called to get the facts on me before writing Gene Ross and printing all kinds of of misinformation.
Did anyone stop to get the name of the Dr? The emergency room? How where when why? On anything that went down in may 1999? Nope, Billy [Galactic's brother] told Kevin to do nothing, don't talk to no magazines, but he did anyways with no facts.
Here's a letter I sent into Gene Ross yesterday but before I send it to you here are some facts:
1. Kevin did not have the balls to do a retraction to say I was indeed living.
2. His reasons were not because he cared about me to warn other girls, he wanted the juicy story and have 100s of girls run to him to have him do their websites.
3. I have the guts to come forth and admit my faults and what I'm about to say is the letter that was sent out, no it was not Billy, I was sucidal that night had plans of just going to sleep permanently. No it was not over breast implants, it was over serious tragedies that were happening in my family. A family member lost a child to a drowning death... I was her God Mother. I'm only 24 and this child was like my own... this child it seems never even had a fn chance in this world!
Kevin wanted me to be the example for other girls of misinformation, whice I am fine work out hard core own my own gym indoors and go to one everyday, hige impact health diet dont drink smoke or drugs,and Im not choped up at all,a small incision one can harly see and the rip I had is heeled and lasered over Im pale porcelainin skin heel great live a healthy life style, I had the guts to come forwarded and admit finally I sent the letter I did not wait 2 months I was scared yes but you know what I did not even know where kevin wrote he did not tell me, till I fourn out two months latter!
Then freaked when I saw at a normol reaction if you think about it, kevin did nothing to retract that stroy so I dont know any more,he says we can shot and forget about the past,but after talking to friends and recor producer I think it best kevin and I for a friendship or working is not acceptable no longer,anyways heres the letter I sent ross so you have it as well,and thanks for getting the facts from the sorce on what really happened, the Dr. I do need to protect his name,whice on my website I will have a page go up expaling the whole ordeal and a picter of the befor during after of May 1999 and expalin to girls the facts and fictions,and answer any of there questions they have, not instill fear into them like kevin did,gezzz then everyone dont have your teeth caped whitened infection can happen dont get hair weaves hey could get infected,dont have no cosmetic suregy at all hollywood LOL yeah right when hell freezes over and pigs fly lOL, anyways soheres the letter I sent yesterday>
To: gene@avn.com, KevinKorey Sir Ross,this is GGalaxina again,I wanted to write regarding a few things that was said and done ,this past may 1999 I had a surgery as some are aware of,and for some time I have been under going surgeries going larger, a few set backs in going large how ever its like anything even with sport figures that over train and end up pulling ripping tearing ligaments muscles so forth, to achieve something one must take it step by step it cant be done over night, that was my mistake trying to go so large over night litterally,Im a samll framed girl however born nautally with but tits DDD Fcup,and when I wanted to go larger
Hey it is a free country last time I checked and I never adhered to this ism dogma trying to fit mainstreams ideals of what to conform to what is Acceptable have always been an out sider and go against the grain I do what I feel I choose to do, and this all natural is hey get real really meaning if one thinks about it everything's is atoms and I wont go into physics but we are that so is implants so is everything around us, and oh one was not born with implants well one was not born with clothes on either or pre tinted hair makeup implants aside so everyone should stop all cosmetic surgeries lip injections laser peels so forth come on porn stars do that all the time and every day people as well its what looks hot guys love that puffy bee stung lip look and the long hair lot of them girls have weaves, and my point is this I talked to Kevin he said he got lots of mail back from people saying right on Kevin about using me as an example for other girls not to get implants or go large so that's what this whole thing was about?,
Well Ill tell you something there are no scars on me just a tiny incision and Im so porcelain white perfect skin that and I heel perfectly for one I don't do drugs or drink I work out fitness gym all the time swim can do anything anyone els does and likely better gymnastics was my field growing up and stayed in excellent shape,Im getting my new implant in this month all is going well,I think the one thing females should know before getting implants is this understand that with any surgery there's risks not just implants, every time one is opened there's risk of infection, air born particles that even the best heppa filters cant filter that are so micro and depending on the Dr. and state of health all facters caome into play, I was really down may that marked my dads death and I sent the letter in not Billy it was not just implant ordeal it was a lot of tragedy going on around me with friends and family that I felt at the end of my rope with, and tried to take my life, I really wish Kevin would of not jumped the gun the next day and sent a letter in to you with out getting all the facts first.
I was found at my LA apartment not thinking I would be when the letter was sent out I thought I would no longer be around but the letter was found and Billy got my sisters and came to my LA palce,Im embarrassed about the whole thing, but I needed to get the facts out the turth,kevin says he was just in what he did and wanted to use me as this warning to others which he really should of listed when Billy did send him a letter saying don't go to no mag yet there's some things you need to know Kevin first, da that Im alive the example given to other females is false, I look good and having the surgery this week Im an m cup and there able to go up and down in size,Im not mainstream not by a long shot, and perhaps even a little to wild for porn a lot of the way I talk is cult not occult for xxx world of film animation like fitz the cat heavy metal the movie that's what galacticgalaxina is going into as well as the cult comicbooks,Im going into xxxfilm and web in the flesh, anyway I just felt a few things needed to be cleared up ,and kevin and I are talking again,he did what he felt was the right thing to do and all Im doing now is clearing up a few incorrect things,but he hung in there with me yes I tend to get overly wild thats why I would day overly wild even for porn screaming 8th octive rock n roll girl,but sometimes in all the hardcore ways of me and cult comic book xxx writing I do, porn may take it as an insult when its not its just underground Heavy Metal mayhem LOL, thank you GGalaxina
