Greg Lasrado Is Back!

Jody Maxwell writes: "There is a documentary being made about Zebedy Colt, his life, and his work. He is a wonderful actor and he was a wonderful director. The man really was fantastic. I know a lot of his original work has been dark, but Zebedy goes for the dramatic. I hear he is acting off-Broadway lately."

Reputed to be an art dealer, he's really a cocaine dealer. He got busted in the Czech Republic and was sentenced to 13 years in prison. He was let out after eight months after a payment was made to the judge and the court case was overturned.

In 2000, Sylvia's manager Oldrich Widman sent out this email: "This is to confirm that Silvia Saint has decided to leave adult entertainment business after five years. She decided cause she finally found her true love with a man of her dreams. He is young, serious Czech businessman surrounding Silvia with his love and attention. They are officially engaged and making ready for their day no 1- wedding. The date will be announced additionally. We are proud to announce you that Silvia is expecting her first baby."

Hover writes: "I recently read something by you about trying to verify whatever happened to late 70's porn star Nancy Suiter. The long and short of that was that most agree she went and retired with a rich rancher? I was wonering if you had any info on a past Penthouse Pet named Kirsten Knutsen. She was pet in Oct 1980 and appeared twice more I think in the mag inside of 2-3 years."

He calls me late Thursday night from his apartment in South-Central Los Angeles. "I was telling you about how I make my money on the side. By all means necessary, whether I sell crack, weed, or put a bitch on a track.

"If a nigger ain't got no job, a motherf----- is going to do what he has to do. If I hear the scoop on the street that Luke has a million dollars in his house and I ain't got no money, I'm going to try to get that. That's why a lot of motherf------ are coming up dead and s---."

I'm on A Current Affair tonight. You can watch the promo here and read more information here.

One of the world's biggest internet pornographers (in Brisbane, Australia) spends his time teaching karate to kids.

If Scott goes back into peddling bestiality, [European beasty king] Hans Burger will punish him.

Content Hire writes 1/20/05 on GFY:

The European owner of LivefromBrasil.com and Bestialitylive.com was arrested in November last year. He owns 20 studios in Brasil feeding his sites and others with livefeeds, hardcore, transsexuals, bizarre and animalshows. 30 cops entered the house after a tip from an ex-employer who was fired. All equipment is confiscated and will be used in the trial. I was always thinking that Brasil was a good country for the porn industry but it could be tricky as you see.

Hans Burger's website Cybermedia.nl replies: "The truth about what happened with Livefrombrasil.com The first part of the letter in Portuguese (down this page) declares that the police had a suspicion about the company in Brazil where the studios resided. They tapped the phone lines and made a bust into the house where the studios are. They thought they would find drugs and under aged girls. But as you can read at the last (red) part; they didn't find anything illegal until now. Everybody was released and the accusations were dropped (nobody is held in custody anymore)."

Jer writes on GFY: "I know that Brazil and The Netherlands are the two countries where most of the bestiality content is shot."

On September 11, 2002, I spoke to Scott Phillips (SexTraffic.com) by phone:

Luke: "Who do you have a problem with in the industry?"

Scott: "I don't think we have anyone. Oh yeah, Hans Burger. He controls most of the world's bestiality content. He has ties to the Russian mob. He sends his Serbian mercenaries after anyone who tries to sell to us."

Luke: "Have people suffered physical harm at the hands of his mercenaries?"

Scott: "Yeah. Who's the owner of bestialitymovies.com? There have been a couple of incidents of people going to Europe and webmasters being forced at gunpoint to sign over their IBill accounts."

Luke: "How would I get a hold of Hans Burger?" Everyone laughs.

Scott: "If you call him up with an Australian accent, he will go rank at you. He hates Australians pathologically. His company is called Book & Film International."

Hans Burger says Scott Phillips is a liar. Hans emailed me 7/25/05 that he caught Scott stealing his content.

A lot of people say they've met Hans Burger but I suspect many of these claims are bogus. I know one guy who's met Hans Burger -- Frank Thring (LFP director Bill Wright).

Born in Holland, Burger is a Dutch citizen. Hans denies the claims of Phillips and other porners that Burger has his own Serbian army.

Burger has his own bank (Cybermedia.nl). CCBill made millions from his because they processed credit cards for years for his bestiality websites. Then CCBill was forced to get out of beasty processing.

Burger is reputed to be richer than Larry Flynt.

Labret writes 2/27/02 on GFY:

Back about 3 years ago, beast exploded. Big cash to be made in it, but nobody had content. So they do like everyone else, and jack it. Whos gonna come and sue you over some bad old beast content anyway? So it was a field day out there with Hans Burger's content.

Hans eventually becomes wise to what was going on and decides to go after everyone running a beast site. And since everyone is using either iBill or ccBill it was not hard to have a site shutdown. No processing, no site. Some of these site were huge, some estimated to be making in the 7 figures yearly at their peak.

Anyhow, anyone who says the are "working with" Cybermedia etc is full of s---. They have been taken over by Cybermedia. All this beast s--- you guys bitch about, is almost entirely controlled by one man. He even controls the beast tgps, and galleries. If you have a beast tgp you are definitely listing Burgers content, and he will have you shut down. However, he will let you list galleries if they are TGP2... seriously.

Hans Burger is a genius. An evil one, but genius none the less. Who else can claim they RULE an entire niche? And its a mighty popular niche. Imagine getting a take from EVERY site in a given niche after you crippled rampant infringement of your content. Genius.

WTF do you think DutchBill is? It is the venture between Hans Burger and Verotel to process all the beast that was dropped from iBill and ccBill.

You thought the heyday for beast was the last couple years? People who used ccbill got screwed, but everyone else now is under the Burger / Verotel umbrella, and business could not be any better for the beasty community. No feds to worry about. Host all your beast in the netherlands, process it in the netherlands, Verotel gobbled up all the beast business that ccbill and ibill had to drop. Instant millions. Although iBill has their hands in the DutchBill pie as well. But that kinda information could get a person in trouble.

.........

Bestiality.com. A little story. They got the primo beast domain, they were almost first on the web for beast, and they used 100% stolen content. Made millions. I have mentioned Hans Burger before, he actually own 95% of the beast content on the web that you see. Burger had to watch these jerkoffs get filthy rich off his content, he finally wised up and put the smack down on bestiality.com. I have had the misfortune of dealing with Burger associates and according to them they succeeded in moderate court success and had taken a couple of the owners of bestiality.coms houses etc. ONLY after they got an ass raping did bestiality.com buy exclusive content. And after they got the exclusive content, which is clearly some of the best quality beast content the world has ever seen, they royally f---ed the producer. The kind of that would get most people killed. The guys from bestiality.com are douchebags. Avoid them at all cost.

Hans Berger writes me 7/25/05:

Scott Phillips was headed for prison for assault, kidnapping and other charges. I've heard that key witnesses in his trial didn't show up because they were paid large sums of money.

Scott has many admirers in Brisbane. The kids he trains would normally be on the street. Scott's getting them focused and fit.

A lot of people in Britain believe that Joseph Elkind ripped them off when it might have been John Bennett. I'm told that neither JoeE nor JB will travel to Britain because there are a few people there who want to kill them.

JoeE and JB did a deal with Ben Dover a few years ago (Britishbombshells) and it went bad (Ben Dover felt he was robbed). The Ben Dover deal led JoeE and JB to get into a deal with Private.

Ben Dover has a lot of gangster friends who took great exception to how Ben was treated. I've heard that if JoeE or JB were to show up in Britain, they'd get whacked.

John Bennett and his business mate Gary are operating a prepaid credit card operation. Prepaid credit cards are what drug dealers use to move money across borders. You can only take so much cash across borders but you can take as many credit cards as you like.

He's made major purchases into the European cell phone porn industry and owns the equivalents of "sex.com" in "short codes."

According to one site: "Voice short codes allow mobile phone users to interact with brand owners and service providers using just one memorable five-digit number via either SMS or voice services."

Seth started in phone sex. He fled to Bangkok, Thailand, in 2001 after his American operations fell apart.

America has "short codes" with cell phones but you can't use them for porn billing.

Former Brisbane resident Jon Atherton has lived in Vancouver for about four years (he moved because of Australia's anti-spam laws). The Hilton family put his Paris Hilton sites and Adstats out of business a couple of years ago. What traffic Jon has left he sends to Adult Friend Finder.

As I called around my friends in the Southern California porn industry Thursday afternoon, all of them were suffering from the heat and none of them sounded productive.

"I'm dying," says Kevin Blatt in San Diego. "I'm lying here in front of the fan because I was getting dizzy sitting in front of my computer. There's two days out of the year in San Diego where it gets unbearable. I don't have air. I don't need it because there's usually an ocean breeze. But there's no breeze today. You've got to be dying in your garage.

"All the real pimps are calling me up on the phone," he says. "They see me on CNN and I crack them up. 'I was sitting with Snoop Dog and we saw the KBizzle on the Televizzle.'"

I call Tone Capone. "I'm just trying to get some rest," he says in a bleary tone. "It's as hot as a mother----- in this bitch."

I call her Thursday morning. She's packing up her apartment to move to the UAE (United Arab Emirates). "I've spent one year here," she says, "and my life has gone nowhere but to hell. I believe Khomeini was right when he called this country 'The Great Satan.'

"This was the worst pornography thing the other day. I don't think they know how bad they are. They said, 'Here is our scene. We lure you into the back of our tinted window van and we f--- you.' I said, 'Oh, like pedophiles do to children?' And they're like, 'Yeah!'

"I had to play hard to get. I had to say, 'Oh no, I don't think it's safe.' They said, 'No, it's safe. I'm a U.S. Marine. I work for the United States government.' 'Oh, if you work for the United States government, you would never do anything to harm anyone. I'll get in the car.'

"And then they're like, 'Yeah!' Then they're gagging me and f---ing the crap out of me and they're like, yeah! This is a really good image they're setting forth for our country."

"They tried to make me throw up. They made me cry. They beat me. I'm not used to this. I've never had anal sex. I never used to have oral sex but they're trying to push more and more."

Heidi: "Until I leave. I don't care. I'm going to tell them though that they can't gag me with their penis. They want to make it look like they're raping me. Don't you think that's weird? Do you like that?"

Heidi: "After I leave the country, you can write an article -- the porn industry has turned out the senator's niece. We don't respect women, up to the niece of our leadership."

Helpful writes: "I don't get these chicks who say "Well, I couldn't find a job with my masters in economics so porn was my only other alternative"? My college counselor never brought up porn as a possible plan B. Not once."

I sent this letter Wednesday night to Hustler magazine Editor Bruce David, Caroline Sinclair, and various sources at LFP as well as former employees of LFP. To the best of my knowledge, the substance of the below is accurate.

I hear from LFP employees that they are getting satirical emails almost daily (probably from ex-LFP employees).

Ramsey writes: "Here's something I don't understand from Katja. It's obvious you're against risky sex acts so why did you agree to be in Cum Fart Cocktails and do an anal creampie?"

When Katie was a kid in Texas, she wanted to be a veterinarian when she grew up.

Khunrum writes: "All the girls you interview wanted to be doctors, lawyers, Indian chief-ettes but ended up sucking boners and having their rectums obliterated. You never ask them, what happened between dreaming of tending to ill kitty cats and having their colons plundered. Come now, you can do better. Let's ask those errrrrr! penetrating questions.

"Could it be these porno girl's careers as doctors, lawyers, scientists, Secretary of State, whatever, got derailed because their student loan applications were denied? Or did they simply spend too many late nights at various clubs warbling porn star karaoke tunes and imbibing Demon Rum? Come now Luke, do your job a bit more thoroughly."

She hung out with all types of people in highschool. She was a cheerleader and on student council, but had a stoner boyfriend.

"I was 19 (1996)," Katie remembers. "This little old man found Shay Sweet and I in dancing in a tittie bar. He said we should get into the porn industry. I didn't know what he was talking about. He was showing us pictures of Max Hardcore and some not-nice things.

"Shay and I talked about it for months. We came out here with him and he introduced us to Jim South.

"I've known Shay [since 1994]. We went to highschool together. She was on the soccer team."

Shay's still doing scenes (after finishing her contract with Sin City in June). She's represented by Nasty Modeling, where Katie Gold, Katie Morgan and Dick Nasty work.

Katie dated Ian Daniels for a year. "I don't date porn guys anymore. They have more of a appreciation for what I do. My boyfriend now really gets off on it. Guys in the industry don't know how to turn it off. When you go home, they're still looking for the camera. 'Hello? I need you to focus on being here with me.'

"When you date someone outside the industry, you introduce them to a world they're not used to. They're only been with a certain number of people or they've never tried certain things or they've never been with several people at once. So you take them to swingers clubs. For his birthday, he got me and one of his girlfriends.

"I just started dancing again. A year ago, I had knee surgery. I went to my obstetrician [she meant orthopedist] and he said everything was fine. Katie Morgan and I going on the road together."

Erin, 21, grew up in Minnesota. As a child, Erin wanted to become a teacher or a psychologist. "I was good kid until my freshman year of highschool. And then I started smoking pot and drinking."

She lost her virginity at 17 [in her freshman year at college]. I was really drunk."

Erin: "Something productive like [psychologist], not this. But they're cool about it. My dad kinda knows but not really. My mom thinks it's cool. The other night, my friends and I tried to talk my mom into doing porn. We were a little [intoxicated, possibly high] while we were talking to her. I kinda regretted it once I sobered up. Genesis [Skye] talked to her forever.

Erin: "Yes. No. Not really. Not ones that are worth mentioning. They're assholes."

Genesis Skye says she's never getting together again with her ex-boyfriend Brett Rockman.

Erin: "Some guys are really intimidated by [Erin being a porn star]. That's why I'm single."

The Burbank Leader weekly has named Sardo's Bar as the number one nightclub in Burbank for 2005.

Mark Fuzz says he has a going away (he and his wife Erika Kole are return to the East Coast) present for me - a camera instruction manual.

I heard a report that one of the biggest agents (not Jim South) is telling foreign talent that he can get them fake IDs so they can still work in American porn.

LFP threw the party at 662 N. Heliotrope Drive near downtown Los Angeles. About 250 people showed including AVN Publisher Tim Connelly and numerous LFP executives.

Jezebelle Bond's boxer boyfriend Justin Snyder lived (platonically) with Buck Adams' daughter Krista (Amber Lynn's niece).

Jez brought him into porn a year ago. He fought four pro fights, and delivered two knockouts.

"We're establishing a good business (ClubJezebelle.com)," he says. "I make sure she works out and stays marketable."

Wit Maverick, after a brief sojourn with Penthouse's video division, has returned to shooting for LFP.

I'm told Mondo Video (4328 Melrose Ave) is next door so I wander over and find Colonel Rob, who used to work as a PA for Russ Meyer.

"Welcome to the hallowed halls of Mondo Video. Ask these people. Mondo Video is a sacred temple. We're like a cult. Take a picture of my Satanic cult members.

"I've finally opened up about Russ [who died last year]. I started with Russ when I was 15. That's how I got the name Colonel. I raised in the ranks all the way to Colonel. All of us and Russ were like family. We stick together. We still talk to each other. There's Russ's obituary over here."

"All the years I've known you, you finally get your ass down to Mondo Video. You're finally here. McDonough got sued by Neil Young for his book Shakey.

"I just got off the phone with [Russ Meyer starlets] Kitten Natividad, Erica Gavin, Tara Fantana, Jimmy Ryan. They all check in with me. Everyone's doing great. They're very upset that they're [Russ Meyer's estate] coming after me and Jimmy over the book. Jimmy printed the will in the book.

"Jimmy also did a book on Andy Milligan, the transvestite director. I never worked for [Andy] because he never paid unlike Russ, Harry Novak, and David Friedman (who I all started out with). I'm waiting for my copy of the book so I can see what I'm being sued over.

"The Colonel has a good band of lawyers and they're loyalists to Mondo Video and The Colonel's new way of making porn.

"I've got a bunch of s--- for you. I just had surgery. I was in the hospital for two weeks. I've had ulcers for years. It split open. Internal bleeding. I was bleeding to death. They have a great new way of taking care of it. They can go in through your mouth and hydro-seal it. They put dissolvable stitches in at 7am on a Tuesday. I was in the hospital for two weeks getting the blood poisoning out of me. They sewed up my stomach. I come out of anesthetic. I said, doctor, I need to go shoot a film tonight. He said, don't do it. But I did it, Midnight Prowl (Kahn Tusion directs the shoots [about one night a week] at Mondo Video while customers look on). I was good, dude."

Ryan Knox works for Midnight Prowl. "They take a porn girl," he says, "and drive her around in a limo. They take her to a video store. They take four or five guys and play it like they are strangers and she has sex with these strangers in a video store while everybody's yapping and it's a big joke. It's not hardcore like Meatholes. It's comedy. It's not all psychological and crazy."

Ryan: "If you look at it, it might scar you psychologically. Because you meet all these people and then you see that and it's no fun."

I call him Tuesday afternoon, July 5, at his apartment (he lives with Tiptoe and Gorgeous Dre) in South Central on Third St off the 110 Freeway.

Tone: "I'm just at the house playing Madden [football on Playstation 2], you know what I'm saying, and chillin' with a couple of females and playing Madden for money. It ain't no fun if you ain't got no money down there. Me and my nigger Dre."

"You ought to bring your tape recorder down here. Bring your camera and bring an extra body with you. You might need some protection."

Tone: "I brush my teeth and wash my face at 6:30 in the morning and smoke a fat-ass blunt."

Tone says he does whatever work that pays. "Whatever it takes. If that means robbing you, I'm going to get it.

Tone: "That means, do you feel me? But over here we say, do you figga deal me. Slang. So get on it."

Tone: "No drama going on over here, dog. I've been staying low, dog. My birthday's coming up July 11. I'm trying to see that mother-----. I'll be 25."

Tone: "Yeah, man, mother------ are getting shot up. I don't know if you've been watching the news about the Black and Mexican war. I think that s--- is going to start taking off, you know what I'm saying?

"Mexicans around here are saying 'F--- niggers' and throwing bottles and s---. I'm surrounded by nothing but Mexicans around this motherf-----. This is there 'hood but where I stay at there's nothing but niggers up in here. They [Mexicans] know that we're in here with something."

Gorgeous Dre: "When we go down the street, they make slain Jay noises (imitating the cocking of a shotgun)."

Tone: "Me and my nigger Dre be jogging and they be hanging out and they're going cha cha."

Tone: "There are a lot of haters out there, you know what I'm saying? I don't give a f--- about nothing.

"You ought to come sit with us and we'll get your ass high as f---. Get your ass drunk as hell, you know what I'm saying?"

The Amalek Manifesto: Bringing Negroes, Jews, and WalMart Workers Together to Defend America

I got called out from the podium Sunday night at the Free Speech Coalition dinner dance. Edward Wedelstedt told me to report it straight.

I thought I had misheard (as Eddie didn't have a strong clear voice though he was enthusiastic about hugging everyone on stage) but several people came up to me afterwards and confirmed he was calling me out.

Over 300 people showed, but the fan turnout for the after-party was just a trickle when I left at 10:45pm.

Jeff Stryker (who got a lifetime achievement award) was the biggest jerk of the evening. He appeared to be drunk and he repeatedly (and for no reason) cursed out the host of the evening, Adam Glasser, and threatened to beat him up.

Jeff is a drunk and frequently becomes so obnoxious at these types of events that he gets punched out.

AVN President Paul Fishbein (Rob Spallone and a lot of other people call him the hardest working man in porn) bailed after less than an hour (as he often does at industry events). I've never seen him look so skinny.

I don't believe the Free Speech Coalition has ever been more efficient, effective and organized than it is today.

A porner asked me why the FSC had Eddie W play such a prominent role in the evening when he's accused of tax evasion by the feds. First, the FSC isn't that choosy. Many people in porn, including big company owners such as Eddie, have long criminal records. Two, the same personality traits that led Eddie into a life of crime combine to create somebody who can get things done (which the FSC badly needed after Russ Hampshire retired).

Eddie says from the podium: "Women's rights. Gay rights. Your rights. Free speech. Do you know that almost 70% of all of those cases were won by adult industry lawyers? Not the so-called newspapers but don't have a clue what free speech is all about because they won't take our ads."

I understand there will be about 8,000 original (not comps) porn movies released this year.

Rob Spallone doesn't want to be seen with me tonight. He spends his time instead paying court to New Beginnings owner Lenny Friedlaner who doesn't appear happy to see me.
