Porn Stud Julian

VCA and Vivid contract boy Julian writes: "Luke, this is Julian, I have just had the un-pleasure of reading the gossip on myself. I really have know clue as to why, after three years someone feels the nned to try and drag my name around, but if they do I really wish they would give you the facts, or you will research until "YOU" have come to find the facts.

"We talked about a year or so ago and had a pretty good interview, and regardless of others warning me not to talk to you, you had never previously given me a reason not too. You knew of my past, and asked me on it, and I never denied it to you. I asked you not to print it, and you graciously complied. Again, I never denied anything. Now, I am not proud of it, nor really ashamed, But I can't change anything. It happened, I didn't like it, It's not who I am, for ANY amount of money. If people don't ask me about it I don't mention it, which I feel is totally understandable. Now it seems a lot of people feel if I don't talk openly about it and share it with everyone at anytime, well then I'm denying it or lying about it. In your article about me, I guess re-opened by "spiderJ", it states that I gave a blow-job to a guy in one of the movies. That is completely false.

"Now, in two{2} seperate movies I did receive oral sex from a guy, one for a few minutes, and the other with Sharon Kane, where I did have sex with Sharon Kane only, and the other scene in that same movie, was myself and Brittany Andrews only. The others where as I said all masterbation scenes or simply masterbation Videos. Now, if you do do research you will find that I am completely correct, and if there are people still out there who feel that I am not being totally honest, than I ask them to "PROVE" what they are rumoring about me, and I will admit to everything, but there IS nothing else. Well luke I read your article the other evening and if you are sincere about not wanting to, I guess "hurt" people with your words, well I wish you the best, there should be alot more people with that mind-set. Enjoy your life, I'm trying to enjoy mine."

Harley Fire vs Voodoo Tribe

Harley Fire talked to Luke by phone Thursday about his broken deal with Voodoo Tribe.

Harley: "I used to be a bartender. I met them in a bar, after I'd been doing my show for two years. And they gave me the same pitch that is written on your site. We'll put you on satellite TV, pay per view... You're going to be huge, the next Howard Stern. I couldn't be more excited in the world. I bought right into it.

"I signed a contract with them. They were going to pay me $600 a week to do the shows and they were going to put up a website. They claimed they had $100,000 worth of backing. Then, within two months, $600 a week became $500 a week.

"They said they were going to have a whole production team, they were going to get an office. And those guys work out of an apartment. They don't have an office or anything. They are three unemployed guys who are great talkers.

"My friend Mike gave the guys $10,000. They said they were going to NATPE convention where they sell the TV shows. They had all these plans. None of them happened. My $500 a week went down to $250 a week. I came to find out that these guys had no experience in production. Anytime we did a shoot, I did the whole thing myself with Mike. And they would just come to shoots and watch the whole thing. And they'd bring people along, because they found people were enticed by looking at girls. And people would throw in money.

"They had a booth at the IA2000 convention in January... The website was supposed to be up last October... It finally came up in March...

"Eventually, they quit paying me any money... After I did not get paid any money for three weeks, I sent them a letter noting that our contract becomes null and void if they don't make the payments. Mike never got any of his money back... I wound up exhausting my savings...

"Have Voodoo Tribe show you anything they've produced. I guarantee that they have nothing except my shows, including two shoots we did with Jamie Lee and DooMe Moore and Tawny Danielle. They're using my footage and showing it to people and trying to make money...

"They're asking the girls if they will do scenes for $200 when they normally make $600. And it made me look like an idiot too. And they wound up doing nothing. If they have produced anything, I will apologize.

"When AVN puts a story up, like they did on Voodoo Tribe, they don't check it at all? I could send AVN an email saying I was doing a deal with Steven Spieldberg and they'll put it on there?"

Luke: "Probably and I would too."

Harley: "I'm doing a deal with Steven Spieldberg and major Hollywood players."

Rob Spallone Rebutts Gossip

Rob Spallone was married eleven years ago today and he says he's always been faithful to his wife. He's never messed around with any porn girls. Not even a blow or hand job.

Rob phoned at 1PM:

Rob: "You're dead. Get your s--- off the computer. You starting rumors and then I'll be in trouble. That I am California married, that I'm married to the Mob..."

Luke: "I didn't write it. People said that in PST."

Rob: "Eleven years ago today at this time I was walking down the aisle, you prick. So you tell those folks at PST that you know me, and you know my wife, and that's not what I'm about.

"Last night we're shooting at the other house, and somebody had a computer. And they were all reading it. So Jim started making a big show because that guy John Gotti was there... Jim says, 'Get Luke on the phone...' Jim's yelling, acting like the big man on campus...

"And you wrote that I was Sharon Mitchell's assistant to Budapest. I wouldn't get on the same plane with Sharon Mitchell... You know how she learned to draw blood? From doing needles...."

Kianna Bradley goes on the Jerry Springer Show Monday with Chris Cannon.

Kendra and Kianna are hanging out together today. Kendra appears at Spearmint Rhino in Oxnard, this weekend.

Kianna tells Luke: "I'm broken hearted that asshole is an inconsiderate well.... kendra and i are doing some running around today. I cant be with someone that lies all the time and doesnt take responsibility for there actions, i know he is dangerous he's proved that all ready if it wasnt for my brother i'd probably be hurt worse than i am."

Chaim Amalek writes: Congratulations on the mitzvah you have done in re ********. It is as if you have saved the world. My advice is to be more careful about what you publish about many of these women. Any woman working in porn today is very likely to have a few screws lose or missing entirely, and not have the psychological strength to handle much non-physical abuse (they seem to possess endless reserves of strength with which to handle the purely physical). I wonder, if you save someone's life, and they later ruin someone else's life, there is no moral blame that attaches to you, is there?

Nancy Jo Sales

According to her brief bio on Nerve.com: "Nancy Jo Sales is a Contributing Editor at New York magazine. She has sworn off men and is trying to get pregnant . . . which is difficult."

According to the New York Post's Page Six Gossip Column last Sunday: NEW York magazine scribe Nancy Jo Sales is preggers - but not, despite her best-laid plans, by one of her handpicked sperm donors.

The 35-year-old writer has made no secret of her desire to be a mommy, going so far as to chronicle her baby quest in the mag's "Singles" issue last week. "I've had it with New York men. Just give me some sperm," she declared. In the piece, the industrious Sales described how she decided to invite "a bunch of old boyfriends to a wine-fueled dinner party and get one of them to impregnate me."

Now, sources say, Sales is expecting, but the father-to-be apparently wasn't on the guest list. "She's been telling everyone she's pregnant for weeks," says a source. "The irony is, Nancy Jo went to great lengths to pick out a perfect father, and then she got pregnant accidentally."

The uncharacteristically closed-lipped Sales declined to divulge details to PAGE SIX on her reported delicate state, joking, "You'll just have to wait for the sequel." Sales raised more than a few eyebrows when she went public last week in New York with her unorthodox fertilization plot.

"Raising kids is expensive enough; I didn't see why I should start the process with a five-figure donation to a sperm bank," she wrote. "[And] I couldn't bring myself to single out just one guy because that felt too much like genetic engineering," explained Sales, who added that her dating dance card has included "tall men, short men, fat men, skinny men .. a doctor, a lawyer [and] a member of the Wu-Tang Clan." "So I picked eight," Sales confessed. "Sort of like applying to college, I had long shots and I had 'safeties.'" Her candidates were "all good friends and all lighthearted, if not positively irresponsible, fellows ... so I was expecting at least one offer, maybe a bidding war ..."

Sales wrote in Mademoiselle, January, 1995, about a past relationship: "When people see us (photo of NJS with Kramer) together they must be jealous, " said my boyfiend--I'll call him Matt [Mark Kramer???]. We were in the Italian restaurant where we had gone on our first date, more than a year before. We drank a little more wine, ate wonderful pasta, kissed and held hands. The perfect romantic evening.

"Then we went back to his place, and Matt exploded into violence. He nearly killed me. I ended up in the hospital; Matt ended up in handcuffs. How had our evening--and our relationship--gone so wrong? Matt seemed crazy about me....Suddenly, the violence gave way, perversely, to an intensely sensual moment. I wound up attributing the incident to Matt's "passionate nature"."

Rabbi Stiffkugel on Pissing and the Mainstream

Rabbi Stiffkugel writes on RAME: The Rabbi Stiffkugel frankly doesn't find excretory themes in porn very appealing, but has noted the infrequent discussions of how the edge of the envelope in porn there days seems to be pissing scenes. Since boredom with a lot of the industry's product has impelled the RS to watch more main stream material, he has come across a number of interesting circumstances. The most recent of which is a film called the Loss of Sexual Innocence. The RS won't bother summarizing the rather turgid plot here, but will comment on one Adam and Eve-type scene shot in a rather muddy pond. The black Adam and the white Eve (there were different races in Adam and Eve days?) are standing knee deep when Adam . . . . takes a . . . . PISS !!. Eve, as if to say, "oh, is that what that's for?" then does the same thing, noting she doesn't need a pee pee to do it. (They had penis envy then, too?)

Now here's the rub: This film, in addition to not even being considered porno because there's just nudity, no sex (pissing isn't sex - remember when you were a little kid and you could pee before you even knew what sex was?) , has an R rating. It was shown in neighborhood theatres and is now renting in neighborhood video stores. So what's the big deal about pissing anymore? The RS' suggestion would be to release a movie starring the same actress taking a leak on a handcuffed Dave Hardman or better yet Max H, saying something to the effect she doesn't need a pee pee to do that, either. The Rabbi Stiffkugel (Opherian@aol.com)

Mad Jack Does Jenna

Mad Jack called Luke at 11PM Thursday night: "I'm kinda hanging again. You sound out of breath, did you get a blowjob or something?

"I just stopped by the swing club Hide and Seek. There are two girls who are working Adultdex who came down last night and did everybody in the club. They were already in there tonight. They brought some dude in and went to town on him. They're f---ing the whole place.

"One of them came from San Jose, California... Huge tits and skinny as a rail. I was down there for four f---ing hours watching these girls do guy after guy after guy. They did it for free. I asked one of them if she wanted to shoot for me, and she gave me this Scottish brogue, 'This is me fun time. I'm not doing this for money.' I had my girl blow me and then I flagged the other one, the one with big tits, and she blew me for a while. Then Victoria said in her Scottish accent, 'Let me lay on my back and you can f--- my face.' I said ok and I went to town."

Luke: "Did you spew?"

Mad Jack: "I spewed all over her face, bro...

"And I've got the full poop on this bulls--- f---ing Jenna Jameson and the fat f---ing Nikki Tyler [who did a show at a major Las Vegas hotel, costing $25 for entrance] at the Crazy Girls show at the Riviera. She's f---ing disgusting. Her and Jenna come out like they are all of it and a bad of chips and in reality dude, they're nothing. They're fat and out of shape. Nikki has cellulite. And Jenna's calves are so small compared to her thighs, she's wearing these white boots and it looks like she took a f---ing hole punch, slit them down the middle in the back, and took a hole punch and put f---ing shoelaces in it. It looked really tacky. Here's Miss Million Dollars a Year...

"The costume she came out in was awesome. Some 17th century deal. And they put us right up on the stage. We were with Lori Wagner, the Penthouse Pet. We had dinner with her and the black Crazy Girl and five other people. When we got in, they set us off to the side. I gave the dude $20...and he put us right up by the stage.

"Shayla LaVeaux is so cool. She comes out full of life and fire because she's a sweetheart. They integrated these porn girls into the show and instead of having them doing show stuff like the Crazy Girls, they just come out and do a three song set like they're in a club.

"But Jenna man, she just thinks she all of it. So I just wanted to trip her. And Nikki Tyler is working the f---ing guys for tips. This is a Vegas show, not a f---ing strip club. And Nikki's crawling around, and looking at guys and rubbing her fingers together, like, if you come up with some money, I'll dance in front of you. And I'm just thinking that it is so f---ing tacky. Jenna didn't do that.

"I've got no high regard for Jenna anyway. She f---ed a lot of people over and she's not good for her word and just seeing her strut her stuff... Her skin was blemished. Her legs were bruised.

"Nikki Tyler weighs more than me. She's got to weigh 150. She banks on that face of hers which is cute.

"Heather Hunter was sick, so she didn't show.

"I went with Lowell Smith."

Mike South vs Kendra Jade

Mike South writes: OK Luke I am gonna go tell it like it is here.

There are a lot of girls in this business who have no business being in the business, and Kendra Jade is one of them. Performing hardcore sex in adult videos requires a degree of emotional stability that Kendra does not posess. This is not a slam on Kendra, most girls and indeed most guys do not have the emotional and moral freedom to participate in this business without paying paying a spiritual price for it.

When I interview prospective girls to appear in my videos I always ask why they want to do it. I am looking for the guilt free attitude about sex. I will turn her down if she is doing it to support a drug habit, a layabout boyfriend or if I think she is emotionally unfit. Heather Jade is a fine example of this. I would not shoot Heather because she is not emotionally equipped to handle being in this business. I do not want a girl that I shot to be wringing her hands over it two days, two weeks, two months or two years later, it is not worth it.

An analogy that I like to use is fairly simple and straight forward. if you wish to be an opera singer you have to be able to sing, some people can learn to sing and some simply cannot. To be a successful pornstar you have to be able to have sex in front of people, for the entire world to see and feel no guilt about it. If the guilt is going to be an issue you should not even try to be a pornstar.

To many people sex is fun, as is exhibitionism. There is no guilt attached to sexual acts and in many cases pride is even attached. For people with this attitude porn is a valid career choice.

As for Kendra, I can empathize, but as an adult it is her choices that have put her where she is and it will be her choices that will determine her fate, in or out of this business. If kendra wants to change her life she has every opportunity, she can go back to school, she can continue in the business she can even commit suicide and ultimately it is her choice and she bears the brunt of responsibility because they are her actions. I think most of the people in this business would be hesitant to shoot Kendra, I know I wouldn't shoot her because I do not want to compound a poor decision on her part. Don't get me wrong Kendra is not the only one but she is currently the most visible "victim" even if she is a victim of her own poor judgement, as are most victims.

If Kendra honestly wants help, give her my phone number, I can and will help her, but if all she wants is sympathy and a handout forget it. It will take a lot of hard work on Kendra's part to get her out of the situation she has gotten herself into. The road to salvation for Kendra has to come from a self awareness that she does not yet seem to have. If you don't love yourself how can you expect someone to love you?

Craig Vasiloff writes: "Luke - read the Mike South post on your site. He didn't need to do that. Kendra is the best and I will work with her anytime."'

Kendra: "It's not that I don't have the "skin" for this biz or emotional stability. My emotional health would be the same no matter what biz. It just comes to a point when someone has had enough, thats where i was at, stressed. That happens to everyone and if i quit my jobs everytime I got stressed, where would i be? I just had a lot going on around me, more than you or any of your readers know. I am fine.

"Plenty of people will and would like to work with me. Why ? because I am professional and friendly and a hard worker and I will continue to be just that.

"And tell Craig I appreciate his support. Even tho it must only be "because he's f---ing me.""

Dago writes: Hey Luke, I just read the letter about Kendra from Mike South, and I would positively have to disagree. I spent quite allot of time speaking with Kendra via computer, through email, and IM about a deal I wanted to get her involved in. I don't care what anybody says, she is a very smart, articulate and hard working woman. this was at the time when she was just launching her website, and she was working tirelessly on that, and other projects at the same time. I got into some legal wranglings at the time, and through things beyond my control, I dropped the ball with her. I have regretted not being able to put that deal together very much. But it was my fault, and had nothing whatsoever to do with anything on Kendra's part.

She is very driven, and from what I saw, a very nice person to boot. Saying she isn't emotionally stable is really not fair. As you know I was engaged to a former porn actress for over 2 years, and have Been on the fringe of the business, and in the adult industry as a whole for several years in the strip club end. I certainly don't have the porn biz experience that Mr. South has, but I just feel in my humble opinion that with regard to Kendra he is mistaken.

In my opinion she would be an asset to any company, in the adult biz, or any other. One just needs to look at the loyalty she has shown John Bone to see that when she commits to someone or something it takes allot for her to break that commitment. I wholeheartedly believe every word I have written here, and felt that because of my negligence with regard to the deal I proposed, then dropped the ball on, I owed it to Kendra to write you this letter.

Gene Ross Scoops Luke

I was working on this story about Bridgett Kerkove vs. LGI and Gene scooped me. Get it from him, with my blessing.

Not only has Bo from LGI taken BridgettKerkove.com without her permission and market it as though it is her official site, he's done it to other actresses too.

Kendra Jade is LGI's contract girl. Kendra says: "I love Bo to death and he has kept every promise he ever made and fufilled every aspect of my contract."

BridgettKerkove.com reads thus: "Hi I'm Bridget welcome to my website. I'm always looking for some fun and what could be more fun than a good f---? Don't you agree?

"I've got all kinds of pictures and movies for you to see, and I'm always adding more pics and clips every day."

LGI has been phoning around production companies asking for pictures of Bridgett for this fraudulent site.

Bridget told Luke and Gene Ross: "Well, last week Tyce Bune called and said this guy Bo was hounding him to start a website with him. Tyce was uneasy about it and called me. Tyce said this guy Bo says he has your website and he's putty Cherry Mirage's up. I go, 'What!!?'

"I told that guy [Bo] I did not want a website with him. I talked to him one time on the location. I called up Bo and his wife answered and said, 'If you want your name back, then you're going to need to pay us.' I said I never signed anything. As a matter of fact that movie I did, I never signed a model release for. I said you guys are trying to blackmail me."

Bridgett's husband Skeeter told Gene: "Our neighbor showed me the website and one of the pictures they show of Bridgett is Brick Majors doing her. There is no model release on it. I don't know who signed it and neither does Bridgett.

"He [Bo] was trying to offer her drugs on the set. I directly saw it. Then we got a call about two or three hours later that night from him. He was saying would Bridgett want to go over and meet Kevin Beech, that if she goes over to keep him company for the night he'll [Beech] give her own series. I said her name's not Gina Ryder. She's not going to be his girlfriend for the week or for the month. I'm not her pimp and I can't believe you're trying to pimp her out. Then Mickey Ray heard about it and apologized to me.

"Tyce Bune said he talked to Bo. Bo was trying to sell him a website saying that Skeeter and Brigett were really happy, they're making thousands of dollars a month. He didn't know that Tyce knew us. That's how we found out about all this." (www.geneross.com)

Bo from LGI denies and the accusations and says he's handed over the matter of Bridget not signing the required model release to his lawyer Paul Cambria.

Bo told Gene Ross: "When we got back east we saw that she was on the cover of AVN [the Sept. issue]. We looked at our model release, and the model release said we could use it, so we opened up a website with her name and we offered her 50% of it. We still will. There's no problem with us. But what happened in the meantime, someone told them the site was up and running. The site's only been up about a week or two. This guy Skeeter called my office and gets my secretary on the phone. He goes, 'Hey, where's this m...f.... at. He drugged my wife and raped her.'"

Amused in Modesto writes: "I am sure you never wanted to hear the name of that washed up "anal queen", Laurie Holmes ever again, but this is too funny. I went over to check out LGI's fraudulent Bridgett Kerkove site. There I clicked on a John Holmes banner. This took me to another LGI site www.johnnywadd.net. Big deal you say? Who cares about that decomposed loser? Nobody probably cares except for Laurie Holmes who operates the site www.johnnywadd.com. Hopefully now that bitch will call off her lawyers on you and sic them on LGI."

TruthsGuardian writes: "Hi Luke, The web site misrepresentation is the pure misuse and abuse of the poor unknowing fan and/or consumer. The folks who use these Adult Stars names without their permission or endorsement will eventually come to light when the customers find out that there are no stars answering there intimate letters or some fraudulent individual is sending lip prints from whomever or possibly underwear from whoever with a signature from Snuffy Smith the fat man, who has been taking their money and privacy. Then there are persons (Who run the girls sites) who have the girls working for them and never tell them that they (The Site owner) are receiving money for memberships. Yet the web site(s) continue to sign product with the girls signatures and all the other misrepresentations of the girls by cheating all around them.

"There are a few out there and they do not think anyone knows or cares. Some of the girls do know and do care. Thanks for bringing it up and bringing the issue to light. We customers appreciate it. Maybe you can check into this one. He does take Adult Entertainers and puts up sites in their behalf, questionable? May want to ask him who sites he does and if the ladies are happy."

Gold Club Bust - What's The Porn Connection?

Director James DiGiorgio hinted Wednesday night that he knows Steven Elliot Kaplan of Atlanta's Gold Club and that John Gotti Jr knows Kaplan well.

Word on the street is that the feds came hard at Kaplan in order to get him to roll over on his contacts in the Gambino org. Kaplan is under 24 hr survellience by the feds. Everyone thinks Kaplan will roll over and go into the Witness Protection Program. Most people are betting that Kaplan will never see his 41st birthday unless he leaves this country and forfiets bail. All those violations...and the feds have decided to let the Gold Club continue to operate. They have not even moved to take it over. They are squeezing Kaplan big time.

The basketball team alluded to in the Gold Club story is none other than the New York Knicks. They were playing an exhibition game in SC.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports on ex-porn actress Diane Hironaga who worked as a topless dancer, porn actress and prostitute. The woman, also known as Kiane Lee, has admitted receiving $5,000 for her role in the murder.

Sharon Mitchell Goes To Budapest

Adult Industry Medicine's founder Sharon Mitchell has just returned from five days in Budapest, Hungary, teaching the sex industry about safe sex.

Mitchell brought along Rob Spallone as an interpreter as well as condoms and "vaginal microbicides. It's a chemical barrier that prevents against STDs and sperm. We have a grant from a pharmaceutical company here so I made that grant available to the talent there. And they just needed some basic education on HIV, STDs and hepatitis. And I also set up PCR DNA testing at a lab there for them. Now we can go back and forth and have the same type of testing. And I also got them a 24-hour turnaround. And a low price.

"I translated all my lessons that I normally teach at Mission College into Hungarian with an interpreter, so by the time I got there I had handouts and a medical interpreter and the class was easy to teach... Medical translations are very similar and a lot of the talent speak English. It was very easy."

Skin 17: The Succubus

Roger Pipe writes on RAME: "The Skin series is always heavy on style, fetish and production values. No one can ever question the time and effort they put into these movies. When they have lost me in the past is when all that style overtakes the substance and we end up with a beautiful, interesting piece of film school smut rather than an actual porn film. Generally, there is more of a theme than a plot, but this one looks like it could have a little of both. Jill Kelly stars as a vampire spilling her guts through her diary. Her angst is clear is a long opening monologue that clearly puts this vampire story into the Anne Rice category of suffering demons with uncontrollable sex drives."

Tony Velazquez writes on RAME: Well, some time back, I made a concerted effort to begin watching pornos from the so-called "Golden Age" of the late 70's and early 80's. It is quite a bit different from the mindless grinders you get these days, I can tell you. There is something to be said for a time when sex scenes really did look like sex scenes, not two people doing their very best not to touch each other except at the point of action. Guys really got to fondle women's tits and do all the things the person watching would want to do if in his place.

Its wierd going back to modern porn because its like watching some wierd parody, or two people being forced to have sex and are trying to stay as far apart as possible. However, there were alot of wierd conventions way back then that do make a downside to the classic porn of this time. Scenes tend to be very short. Very short. We're talking, a three minute scene tends to be a longer one. So, unless you're a ten second wonder, don't get too comfortable. Also, there are wierd Kojak film effects of freeze frames, slow-motion, breakaways to nothing, and worst of all... interrupted sex scenes. No wonder they suffered from Coitus Interruptus with all their porno full of phones ringing and getting answered 45 seconds into a really hot sex scene with a blazing hot woman. (I'm thinking of a scene from ProBall Cheerleaders here).

There's alot of argument about how good looking the women were/are. I'm normally into compromise myself, but I really do think that there's no real difference, the emphasis on what is beautiful has just changed. I personally like the hairy hippie looks that you often see back then. It adds a very good bit of naturalism and believability into the show. On the other hand, Jenna Jameson and Kylie Ireland are among my modern favorites although they are both obviously packaged and made to order. But there is no doubt that the shows from this period had an eroticism and real spark that is sadly lacking from any modern effort. Perhaps because a lot of times they felt they were making an actual film that just happened to have hardcore porn in it. And sometimes this approach led them astray with such films like "Autobiography of a Flea" which is so faked and over the top, its hard to watch it as a porno at all.

I don't think I would go so far as to villify all modern porn, but if you haven't yet looked at some of the old classic porn flicks from the '70s and '80s, I would encourage you to do so, if for no other reason than to enjoy sex from another era in time.

Luke Gets Mail

Johnny writes: Luke, Hope this note finds you well. Let me take this quick opportunity to introduce myself first and foremost as a big fan of your site, but also as a fan of the adult movie business in general. Your brilliant insight and biting commentary have been a source of on-going fascination to me since a friend of mine turned me on to your sight a while back. I recently made the acquaintance of a dancer (in N.Y.C.) named Deanna Star who claims to have starred (sic.) in a couple of adult flicks...Does she sound familiar at all? She's blond, tiny about 5"2....Nice girl."

Done writes Luke: "Sorry you had to go through the drama of holding a suicidal porn babe..... That must have been horrible."

Linda Thoren writes: "Just want to state that I never seen ANYONE in the biz taking drugs. Everyone who knows me realise that I never would say something like that some disturbed person said in my name on PST.

"When we talked about the fake letter. The problems is here. It is probably a friend of my webmaster. The problem is solved in an hour or so... It will never happen again."

Mike writes: "What's the word on Seymore Butts? I ordered more of his VHS tapes which never came. So I called his 800 number and, I was told that he is no longer in business. Have you heard that? Fill me in."

Luke: "Seymore is very much in business."

Porn Star Trading

<Filmacher> i read an interview w/Barry Sonnenfeld - he shot 10 pornos in early 80's

<Filmacher> said it turned him off from sex for a month

<Filmacher> Jim, is it true all porners need constant ego stroking?

<JimGunn> No i need constant cock stroking

<l-keford> Jimmy whadya know about kaplan?

<Heaven_Leigh> ok I am off to bed!!! KISSES to all and BIG HUG to Jackie GOOD NIGHT ALL!!!!

<DaveCummings> Perhaps Luke quoted Jimmy when he shouldn't have???

<PimpOfNuffin> Luke is enfant terrible

<MastCapping> Luke is talking to a very irritated Jimmy DiGiorgio. Methinks we have witnessed the beginnings of 'a breaking story'

<adamjm> luke is dumb as f---

<PimpOfNuffin> he's gettin his nose whapped with a newspaper

<MastCapping> Hey adam Jimmy and Rob are big Italians huh?

<Joner1> or that papr jammed up his......

<Joner1> robs wide....

<adamjm> compact, built

<adamjm> someone you wouldn't f--- with

<DaveCummings> ...or, made it look like Jimmmy said something he didn't actually say?

<MastCapping> adam's hung with Spallone and Jimmy D before

<PimpOfNuffin> if your gonna do what Luke does you shouldn't try to become pals with people in the industry

<MastCapping> Dave I've gotta feeling it's about 'the suicidal porn star,' who happens to be Spallone's girlfriend hehe

<adamjm> rob is married

<Joner1> yeah he is isnt he <?>

<Joner1> "california" married?

<PimpOfNuffin> married to the Mob?

<DaveCummings> Neither Rob nor Jimmy are over 6 feet---nevertheless, I'd fight to have them next to me if I ever went into combat!!! On top of that, they are both SUPER- nice gentlemen!

<DaveCummings> Hey, Mike, sorry you weren't at the Halloween party---there was a LOT of action in the VIP room:-) I could have used some help from ya---lots of girls needing a guy with wood for the photographers, yet it was just me and Scotty Schwartz!

<TyceBune> Luke's on a call alrigh. 1-900-whack-off

<Mastrick> No Luke has Spallone and DiGiorgio on the phone and Jimmy sounded real pissed

<Bootayman> earlier i watched one of the great Peter North's earlier videos..it cracked me up..he shot his wad in this woman's mouth,and she said "god damn!",but because her mouth was full of his spunk,it sounded more like she said "globth thlam!"ROFL

<Meni> rumor has it jenna cancelled tour becuz of new boyfriend

<`^-_-^`> Lukey lurks up there like a grinning gargoyle on the ramparts of Notre Dame, just waiting for something to publish.

<mnc_tech> what's the topic?

<l-keford> i'm interested, tell it like it is mnc

<mnc_tech> but i'm GERMAN

<mnc_tech> ach!!! JUDEN!!!

<mnc_tech> i'm jew-to-the-bone

<mnc_tech> hey what about somebody making a porno for peope who have an acne fetish?

<l-keford> Hey Craig, I think MNC needs his own column

<xxxgen> mnc and you -i'd be drummed out of the business

<MadisonFan-> luke i thought you werent going to deal in human misery anymore? this guy is excruciating

<mnc_tech> i wanna break new boundaries in porno

<mnc_tech> i want to go where no pornographer has gone before

<mnc_tech> i just need a concept

<mnc_tech> the jewish thing might work

<xxxgen> just read your post on Luke's site - and saying I would work with KJ any day of the week

<mnc_tech> is kendra hot?

<MikeSouth> kendra may be hot and maybe a hard worker but everythign I hear tells me that it would be negligent on the part of a director to hire her for hardcore

<xxxgen> Can't debate that Mike - I have never hired her for hardcore - but everything she has done with me has been excellent with no problems whatsoever

<xxxgen> see Mike - now I want to help her out even more!!! Kendra has a good heart - I like her a lot

<xxxgen> No need to print this Luke -

<MikeSouth> its good stuff but it feels light to me

<MikeSouth> 950 words

<xxxgen> Seems ok Mike - there are what 4 items? Might be good to have at least two more - but if not thats ok

<xxxgen> maybe in the next week or so before deadline

<MadisonFan-> craig, you might not be helping by brushing over her problems, she does need help

<xxxgen> I'm not brushing over anything - she will come through it and I have offered my support

<xxxgen> no loaded guns - she has options - and I have lots of work (non-hardcore) for her anytime

<xxxgen> just hoping Luke - that you go easy on KJ for a while

<l-keford> ok

<l-keford> just talking with kianna bradley, she is really depressed, going to hang out with kendra

<MikeSouth> Luke is an odd dude

<l-keford> yes mike

<MikeSouth> on is site he is a man of many words

<MikeSouth> here

<MikeSouth> quite the opposite

<xxxgen> tell 'em both if they need anything... i'll do what I can

<l-keford> thanks

<MikeSouth> misery loves company

<xxxgen> that's why we're all here isn't Mike!! Us deviants!!

<l-keford> i attract depressed chicks

<adamjm> i'm here because i'm a healer and a giver

<adamjm> i'm on a mission from god

<adamjm> bring me your tired, your sick, your poor

<adamjm> and psuedo journalists

<MikeSouth> Luke...dont try and play saviour dude...it aint yer specialty

<adamjm> i'll heal them all

<MikeSouth> save em from themselves.....

<LordBuckley> He comes here to sleep....

<adamjm> luke comes here to think about me and jerk off

* rollerblade just wondering : who is mnc ?

<VideoEd> mnc is just a kid

<MadisonFan-> mnc_tech

<VideoEd> a kid vegas wannabe

<SweetJem> annoying child

<rollerblade> ah

<XTacyAVS> he prolly loves the attention you are all giving him

<VideoEd> i havent seen much of him but from luke's logs he seemed like a pain

<VideoEd> he just loves the fact that he can see his name in print on luke's page

<VideoEd> alot of people come here for that reason

<Darth_Away> Luke's Protegee'

<Darth_Away> if I spelled that right

<VideoEd> so he types 10,000 words hoping he will make the page and show his buddies how famous he is

<Darth_Away> Hey luke, you should charge him for every time you mention his name

<MadisonFan-> some strange odd reason they equate lukes site with fame

<Darth_Away> Thats why Im here, I just wanna be buddies with Luke F-rd

<l-keford> :)

<Darth_Away> so all my friends think Im cool

<Darth_Away> doesnt matter that none of my friends know who luke is, or even are into porn

<VideoEd> you can tell who they are: the first they say when they join is "LUKE IS THAT YOU"

<VideoEd> hehe

<MadisonFan-> i sent my mom a link to lukes site to read all about me and the nasty things i say

<VideoEd> luke would be sitting in the channel beside the likes of jenteal, zoe, delaney, jackie lick and others yet they notice luke

<MadisonFan-> is that really dick dundee?, the guy with the little dick that kimberly kummings blew

<Mastrick> Zoe is up in Ontario now hehehe. It's so cold up there this time of year it'll freeze the balls off a brass monkey

<Heaven_Leigh> it was ok but a damn storm came and flooded the club out when I was there

<Heaven_Leigh> I am not sure where I am going next I do know I will be on the road during Xmas and the new year :o(

<Heaven_Leigh> I am good JEM just to busy to breath right now

<adamjm23> if you come to a channel full of pornstars and the first words out of your mouth are "where's Luke F-rd" you might be gay

<mnc_tech> who has the biggest dick in here?

<Andman> wait, if we all get in line, luke can compare them

<corewolf> anyone want to trade...?

<Sinatra153> are you sure you want a gay man messuring your dick?

<mnc_tech> i would have to say that i probably have the biggest dick in here

<mnc_tech> being jewish and all

<VideoEd> who are you supposed to impress with s--- like that

<mnc_tech> i will refrain from using humor any further

<VideoEd> thanks

<mnc_tech> i'm really sorry dude

<MikeSouth> did mnc say he is the biggest dick in here?

<MadisonFan-> mnc- youre just an annoying f---ing loser, thats all

<mnc_tech> dude WHATEVS

<mnc_tech> there's gotta be humor in porn

<mnc_tech> i like to laugh when i'm jerking off

<Andman> you are jerking of while you are in pst?

<mnc_tech> but i'm just saying

<mnc_tech> humor is a necessity

<mnc_tech> in everything

<MadisonFan-> do you jerk off when you look at pix of Luke F-rd?

<mnc_tech> nah

<mnc_tech> maybe if he was more jewish looking i would

<mnc_tech> anyway

<mnc_tech> i'm gonna go eat now

<VideoEd> good bye

<mnc_tech> talk to y'all niggas later...

*** mnc_tech was kicked by VideoEd (VideoEd)

<VideoEd> i had my hand on the ban button for the last 15 minutes :)

<Andman> hahahaha

<Meni> oh, that was funny

<VideoEd> just watching and waiting

<VideoEd> luke: you will now get a letter from mnc tech telling you how unfair his pst ban is

<VideoEd> mnc will become good friends with the others in that Anti-PST campaign
