Sierra Sinn Smoked Pot Outside Porn Star Karaoke
She writes on ADT: "i had a good time at psk....i spent most of my time smoking pot outside in the parking lot though hahaa!!! typical!"
I encountered Cassandra, a 19-year old college student, on this thread and exchanged a email with her Monday. She went to the Las Vegas show in January with her 20-year old Portland friend Tierney, who's in Fox magazine.
Cassandra writes me:
I think we were the only girls who weren't in the business or actual whores. It was awesome because we got to meet Ashley Blue and Sierra Sinn and Missy Monroe and a bunch of other girls. We went just to meet our favorite performers but almost everyone was really nice and personable and they ended up making it a porn fantasy weekend for us. We don't want to be in the industry but even just going to the convention and awards was interesting and fun. I want to go next year too. It was funny, unwholesome and would make my mother uncomfortable if she knew about it. Next year I'm bringing more comfortable shoes. We took polaroids with a bunch of stars; we waited in line for like two hours for Jenna Jameson to sign but she arrived late and left early. We got interviewed by this Israeli magazine, how bizarre, Ariel Sharon is in the hospital and they ship off Woodward and Bernstein to cover the hot Vegas beat.
Trivia Poll
Vilnii writes: "What perfume/deodorant would win a triva poll on your site for being the most popular in the male and female categories? That would be interesting to know (if performers will volunteer their secrets). Randy West for instance used to wear Calvin Klien for some of his scenes."
Nevada gives legalized prostitution uneasy embrace
MOUND HOUSE, Nevada (Reuters) - In a small Nevada town, a sign at the end of a poorly lighted street lined with warehouses bears an unusual message: "Warning-Sexual entertainment 300 yards ahead. If sex offends you, get out of here."
Was Jenna Jameson Rude During Fashion Week In NYC?
Wicked girl Stormy Daniels posts on ADT:
It's amazing how you can be nice and gracious to thousands and thousands of people, but if you're rude (accidental or not) to one then you are a "bitch". I have a couple of celebrity friends and they can all attest to this. You never know if the person in question is having a bad day, a stomach ache, just had a fight with a spouse, their dog died, or numerous other things...I'm certainly not defending a bad attitude, I'm just pointing out that people should be a little less quick to judge...especially when only ONE person can mention a negative experience.
Sahara Knite Deported Upon Arrival In Chicago
She was returned to the UK Saturday. This happens to a lot of foreign porn stars who come to Los Angeles to work, including the UK's Donna Marie and Angel Long.
Sahara was escorted to the plane to make sure she got on it
Sahara posts on her SaharaKnitexxx.com forum looking for an immigration lawyer.
Gay Male Porn Stars
On most straight sets, the male porn stars flirt with the women on set, but one male porn star likes to flirt with the men. While one guy was holding the C-light close, the stud whacked his cock on the guy's arm. He freaked.
Larry Flynt's Wife Liz Berrios Vs LFP
Liz is probably the least popular person in the Flynt empire. Larry's daughter Theresa puts her in her place at times. Liz does have a good friend in Sharon Mitchell.
The Hustler Tattler writes:
Liz Berrios was Larry's nurse. She employed her relatives at LFP, Lori Berrios and Sean Berrios. Sean is the head of archives and often loses models HIV tests, sending the Black Tower into a panic.
Liz has a firey temper and is mostly concerned with keeping costs down as far as shoots at the studio. The head of the studio - Kenny DeMartines has to account for every penny and is often screamed at by Liz, who constantly cuts the budgets. Kenny has threatened to quit more than once.
Angel DeFina, talent coordinator, is under Liz and is scared of her. Most everyone is scared of Liz.
Liz hates Bruce David, once called him a "stupid old man" during a meeting with Larry. More than anyone, she would love to see Bruce fired, and I would imagine that she loves the Hustler Tattler.
Some of the editorial staff that was axed by Bruce considered going to Liz with info about Bruce in an effort to get Bruce fired. She actually opposed Bruce hiring Mark Cromer this last time around, but Larry overruled her.
Liz also oversees the gift shop at the casino. She doesn't trust anyone, basically she doesn't want the staff spending Larry's money (her inheritance). I only had one or two conversations with her, she never lost her temper, but she was forceful in her opinions.
The Haves and Have-Nots of the Blogging Boom
By all appearances, the blog boom is the most democratized revolution in media ever. Starting a blog is ridiculously cheap; indeed, blogging software and hosting can be had for free online. There are also easy-to-use ad services that, for a small fee, will place advertisements from major corporations on blogs, then mail the blogger his profits. Blogging, therefore, should be the purest meritocracy there is. It doesn’t matter if you’re a nobody from the sticks or a well-connected Harvard grad. If you launch a witty blog in a sexy niche, if you’re good at scrounging for news nuggets, and if you’re dedicated enough to post around the clock—well, there’s nothing separating you from the big successful bloggers, right? I can do that.
In theory, sure. But if you talk to many of today’s bloggers, they’ll complain that the game seems fixed. They’ve targeted one of the more lucrative niches—gossip or politics or gadgets (or sex, of course)—yet they cannot reach anywhere close to the size of the existing big blogs. It’s as if there were an A-list of a few extremely lucky, well-trafficked blogs—then hordes of people stuck on the B-list or C-list, also-rans who can’t figure out why their audiences stay so comparatively puny no matter how hard they work. “It just seems like it’s a big in-party,” one blogger complained to me. (Indeed, a couple of pranksters last spring started a joke site called Blogebrity and posted actual lists of the blogs they figured were A-, B-, and C-level famous.)
Kendra Jade Recalls Her Howard Stern Appearance
I did Howard Stern's Radio show for the gazillionth time on Tuesday. It was soooooooo much fun. Let me give you the run-down. it had been a while since I've been on , so I was really nervous.. what if he said I'd gained weight? What if he said I looked better last time? What if..what if..what if...?? The insecurities took over. I mean , God love Howard , BUT IT'S SCARY AS HELL!!! So , I went out , got drunk and promptly headed to the studio. LOL. I figured if I was drunk at least I wouldn't get my feelings all hurt! BUT , turns out , getting drunk was not neccessary! Howard was great as usual , and it was a blast . I can't wait to do it again! Some tidbits from the show... Howard had me try the Sybian..( if you dont know what that is , look it up!) , They asked me about Kevin Federline.. They asked me about what celebs I'd hooked up with, , and I urged Robin to have sex with me. hahahahahaha. I'm a silly , crazy girl when I am drunk. that's pretty much all I remember.
Mohammet al Gothmi writes Luke: "Kendra Jade needs to be confronted with the fact that Howard Stern hates at least two prophets of Islam: Jesus, and Mohammed."
All Play Gone Superior?
David Aaron Clark writes on ADT: "Has anyone noticed the smarmy, superior tone these amateurishly written All Play press releases for LFP have been taking lately?"
Blogging: So Much Venom, So Much Fun
Peter Warren writes on AVN's blog:
My, how endlessly entertaining it is watching people fall all over themselves to hurl the nastiest insults they can (half-capably) cook up at us both here and on other sites because of their hilarious obsession with twisting anything we say or do into an example of horrid incompetence. And I like how these folks think we're such incredible hacks, yet continue to watch and read everything we do like stalkers after a girl they wish would even look at them. You're giving us business, folks. Sorry to break it to you.
...Nobody is flawless. I've made my mistakes during my time at AVN, and I've owned up to them without contest. But when attacks become personal as opposed to professional and constructive, I bite back. Consistently slamming me for using the word "floating" is hardly a valid criticism. And really, it matters not, because you guys are the ones spending your time reading everything I write, while I sit here, perfectly content and confident with myself and my writing skills. So set 'em up. I'll shoot 'em down. Thanks again.
Holly Randall On Sex And Drugs
She writes on XPT about crystal meth:
I hate this drug. I've seen it destroy people's lives-- in fact, someone very close to my family was addicted to it and also had AIDS-- watching him slowly die from both issues was a horrible experience.
I've done meth a few times, back in college. The high was euphoric, but the come down was unbearable. I never got addicted because after I'd done some I felt like such crap that I didn't want to touch the stuff for a long time. Once I was up for three days on it, and that was the last time I did it. That was 8 years ago.
I've only been in the industry for about 7 and a half years now, but I've never seen such a rampage of meth addicts as I have in this past year. I hope this "trend" dies out soon.
I'd be scared to really make out with Kimberly [Kane]. I know my way around men, but as strange as it may sound I don't know how to please women. I'm afraid that I'd be really bad at licking pussy, since I have almost no experience. I fear that she would be disappointed.
Only once in my life did I really go down on a girl, and that was about 3 months ago. Yes, I am pretty much a virgin when it comes to girl on girl sex.
DieMyDarling writes:
I find it funny that JKP is trying to stay afloat when Jill Kelly is not part of the company anymore and refuses to put any of her new found money into it. Philip J. Star is nothing more than Robert Friedland in disguise, and runs JKP like a communist country. He threatens everyone with their jobs on a daily basis, as he sits with his feet on his desk making bogus deals on the phone to pretend to be busy to appease the courts. JKP has no busines. Nobody wants their products cause the name is tainted and unrepairable.What they do sell is sold at rock bottom prices. They do not make movies anymore.
The Koretsky's should be allowed to at least recoup some of the money that is owed to them before there is nothing left of the library. They are often painted as the enemy, but in actuality they came along to help out JKP when they were down and out, and now they are being left flapping in the wind. AVN will never see their money either. They do not plan on repaying anyone. They are just coasting to keep the CEO paid and a staff on board to seem like a true business.
How Often Does Kendra Jade Drink?
She replies: "Maybe once or twice every couple of months."
Background On Kenny Gallo, The Primary Author Of HollywoodMafia.com
Gallo is a convicted cocaine dealer and law enforcement informant. He produced many porn movies, was married to Tabitha Stevens, and hung out with numerous porners and Mafia-types.
Orange County Sheriff's Department investigator Michael L. Currey in 1990 prepared this statement of probable cause to get a search warrant:
...Genises, a nightclub and sushi bar located at 23311 Muirlands Blvd, El Toro, CA. We had received information that vice and narcotic violations, specifically the sales of cocaine, money laundering, and/or loan sharking had been...occurring at this business.
On 1-20-90 the Orange County Fire Department investigated a possible arson at the nightclub Genises. The owners were identified as:
1. Caselini, Antonio Luciano (10-6-56)
2. [Gallo], Kendall Sawyer (6-1-68)
3. England, Darren David (12-4-66)During the investigation, a confidential informant (C/I) came forward... The C/I told me that subjects Darren England and Kendall [Gallo] were involved in the sales of cocaine. The C/I further stated that their share of the money to buy Genises had come from cocaine sales, and that there is a current "rift" between [Gallo] and England vs. Caselini over ownership and money debts.
...Both [Gallo and England] had sold a great deal of cocaine during 1989. Both had lived at 21971 Rimhurst, #H, El Toro. During this time, they formed a "semi-organized crime" outfit and were distributing cocaine with amounts as much as "kilo quantity."
[Gallo and England] hid their money under the alias name Ramon Gonzalez at Home Federal Savings at 4543 Campus Drive, Irvine.
Where Is Mike John?
He lives in our souls, now Big Mike. He lives in the gentle breeze that blows through the oak leaves at sunset. He lives in the soft, sweet smile of evr'y teenage nymph about to give her first blowjob to a man of an inappropriate and unseemly age difference. He lives where pretty girls who don't do their homework live in peril of being diagnosed as spermaholic, an awful syndrome that silently afflicts many in our modern society and for which there is only one known cure. He lives where cum-dodgers fear to tread, where eagles dare, where the hatch is always open and the only way to go is down. Yes, across the continent, the panochitas weep. Ask not from whom they gulp down the man chowder, they gulp down the man chowder for thee. The workmen are breaking out their chisels. There's a new face to carve in the hallowed rock of Mount Pornmore.
Rumpled writes:
For the hell of it, I visited Luke's site yesterday for the first time and saw that one, unexplained and detail-less item about Mike John. Of course, I had to plow thru all the other items which were quotes from posts here at ADT and long, rambling and incredibly tedious transcripts of conversations between him and someone named Holly.
Would someone please explain to me who this guy is and why he should be given any shred of credibility?
It's a database supposedly for defendants and their lawyers. There are several pornographers listed on there. It seems like a rejoinder to HollywoodMafia.com.
Kendra Jade Visits Howard Stern Feb 7
Gary came in and told Howard that Kendra Jade just showed up and she's so wasted that she can barely stand up. She's running into walls and stuff as she's walking around.
Howard figured that they'd get Kendra on the Sybian since she was so drunk. Kendra came in a short time later and told Howard that she was out drinking all night. She was slurring her words a bit as she was describing what she did last night. She figured that Howard was going to tell her she has a fat ass so she had to drink. She said she had a bunch of Jager shots and some Vodka as well. Howard asked her about her boobs because they were so big. Kendra said that she wants to get them taken out because they're too big. She's only 5'1'' tall and has DD cups. Howard told her she could probably drop down a size.
Kendra asked Howard if she could have sex with him. Howard remembered the day that Kendra felt his penis in the studio when she was under his console years ago. She said she remembers that as well but she was very young back then and was afraid of doing anything else.
Howard told her that she was looking really good today and that he was aroused looking at her.
Kendra did some porn years ago but she claims that she's out of the business now. She knew that she was completely wasted and told him that she met this hot guy last night who wasn't into her. She said that nothing happened with the guy.
Howard read that Kendra had spent the night with Britney Spears' husband Kevin Federline one time. She said that they didn't spent the night, she just hung out with him. Kendra told Howard that she had to pee, she wasn't able to go when she was in there before coming in. Howard figured that she was so wasted that she couldn't even pee. Kendra told Howard that she and Kevin have the same group of friends so that's how she met him. She says that she didn't do anything with Kevin but did hang out with him.
Kendra swore that she didn't do anything with Kevin Federline but she was laughing so Howard figured she was lying. He reminded everyone that Kendra did give Mike Gange a blow job one time. She came on the show after that and said that Mike was bad in bed. Kendra asked for a shot of Jager so someone got one for her. Mike Gange came in a short time later and said hello to his old friend. The Jager was ready for Kendra so they gave it to her but she was rambling a bit and told Howard that she wants to rape his girlfriend. She was also saying that she wants to fist a chick.
Howard asked Mike Gange and Kendra about having sex. Kendra didn't remember doing that. Howard asked her if she had sex with Jerry Springer. She said she didn't have sex with him, he just jerked off in front of her while someone else taped it. Ronnie the Limo Driver brought in a can of Red Bull for Kendra since she wanted that to go along with the shot she had.
Gange noticed that Kendra had cut marks all over her arms and wondered if she cut herself. Kendra said she used to do that when she was younger. She didn't want to get into that but Howard had some notes about her life and found out that she was in foster homes from the ages of 6 to 10 and got kicked out of her house at age 14. Kendra was amazed at all of the details he had about her.
Howard asked Kendra about being a porn star. She said the worst thing was that everyone in the business is dirty and everyone wants to do something to out do other people.
Gary told her he'd give her another 10 minutes on the show if she talks about some guys she dated. Kendra said she didn't want to talk about those people.
Gary saw that they had the love letters that Kendra sent to Mike Gange but when he tried to read them, Kendra covered up his mouth and stopped him from reading them.
Eric Edwards - The Babe Ruth Of Porn
Rodger Jacobs writes for XBiz:
Eric Edwards is talking over a speakerphone from his new home in a small mountain village 4,500 feet above Los Angeles.
"These days, I just kick back and coast with my cancer, enjoying the silence of the mountains."
Jennifer James Interview
I visited her Memoirs of a Modern Day Geisha set Jan 30.
We talk by phone Friday morning.
Jenn: "The idea was Drew Rosenfeld's at Hustler. He said to me, 'Take the idea and come back to me with a synopsis.' I went out and watched the movie. I came back with a story that was somewhat of a copy of the original movie with a respectful feeling of the culture and idea.
"The script was about 20 pages. We had some difficulty with the dialogue as we often do.
"Not many people in life get the luxury of being able to imagine a fantasy and then create it. I love making movies."
Luke: "When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?"
Jenn: "My family was in the [mainstream movie] business. I went on a few movie sets. I remember thinking it was the coolest thing I'd seen and I'd like to live in that world. This may not have been the form of the movie business that I'd originally imagined."
Luke: "What kind of crowd did you hang out with in highschool?"
Jenn: "I was not part of the in-crowd. I had a nice group of friends.
"I grew up on the East Coast and the West Coast. I had family in both places. My father married more than once."
Luke: "What kind of role did pornography play in your young life?"
Jenn: "None whatsoever. I had seen Behind the Green Door once but that was it.
"I fell into [porn around 1995]]. I was trying to get a regular project off the ground. It fell apart. Somebody suggested this. A friend of mine gave me a movie, Bobby Hollander's Leg Show. I remember looking at it and saying, 'Wow, I can do this.' I was a fringe-dweller for a few years, then worked on producing my first feature in 1997."
Jennifer's since shot about ten. "There are people out there who have made hundreds of movies and they just don't give a ---- anymore. I would rather make a handful of movies I care about and let them speak for themselves."
James has shot zero gonzos. "I like telling the story. I use the sex to tell the story. Anybody can shooting people f------, but to create a story that has a beginning, middle and end, growth of character, resolution of conflict... Then the sex has meaning."
Luke: "How meaningful do you think it is for the average viewer that the hardcore film has a story and a resolution of conflict?"
Jennifer: "Probably not at all. 'Please give me the remote so I can fast-forward through it. What is all this stupid dialogue? Why is it getting in the way of the sex? Who is this idiot director? I don't want to see her talking. Get her off the screen.'
"This is an opportunity to put your name on a movie. Why do we in this business rush towards mediocrity? Why just make a few extra bucks and cheat the talent? Why not make something better? Why not make a good f--- movie? Why by s----- when you can be Michael Ninn?
"For most people in our business, it's just a gig. Everything is just a gig."
Luke: "You also shoot music videos and documentaries?"
Jennifer: "A long time ago. I've been doing just porn for the last few years.
"I don't deal well with authority. I kept butting heads with record company executives. I walked away.
"I swore that I would never work in porn for a company or shoot s--- that I didn't want to shoot just to pay the rent. That's why I still care. Because I only shoot s--- I like, I don't hate it like everybody else does.
"I haven't thrown my movies together in two weeks. I wrote scripts. I found investors. I shot and edited the movie. I made distribution deals. I own a piece of these movies. I'm a small studio (Jennifer James Films). Most of those movies are still making money."
Luke: "What do you love and hate about the porn industry?"
Jenn: "Good question. I went on your site and looked at your stuff. You have an interesting take. You ask insightful questions. Your reputation proceeds you. You're a legend in this business and I can see why.
"I dislike the usury attitude. I dislike the debasement of women, the humiliation, the degradation. When I started, it wasn't about putting some guy's knee in a woman's face. It wasn't about how many chopsticks you could jam up somebody's rear end. It was about celebrating sexuality and freedom and telling a beautiful story. It seemed wonderful. Somewhere along the line the industry got highjacked by the extremists. Maybe the market is drawn to extreme violent product."
Luke: "Maybe you were naive at the beginning?"
Jenn: "Maybe I was naive and maybe I'm still naive. I can't figure out what swirlie [putting a woman's head in a toilet bowl and flushing it] has to do with jerking off.
"Now, with the violence and the blood and the gore, who's jerking off to that? If you've got sex in a slasher movie, who's jerking off to that?
"It's not what you do so much as how you do it. Maybe this business need some naiveness? I would like our industry to do business in a more honorable way. That's a stupidly naive thing to say.
"I love the sex and the fantasy. I like most of the people. I like making movies."
Luke: "What motivates girls to become porn performers?"
Jenn: "Most of the girls share similar childhoods to mine -- from strict formal homes, sexually-repressed homes, very religious homes. When you do that to children, it's like stepping on a balloon. It's going to pop out somewhere. Some of them really like sex."
Luke: "How has being in porn affected your life?"
Jenn: "It certainly does change one's social life. Maybe 30-40% of my social life [is through porn].
"Most of the people in my family ignore it. I'm the black sheep of the family. I'm not invited to Thanksgiving dinner. I still speak to my family. It works better if I speak to them on the telephone. I'm sure you've experienced a bit of that."
Luke: "How has it affected your love life?"
Jenn: "It's been a great asset. Because I'm not looking to marry somebody, I'm not looking for that whole Leave it to Beaver thing. 'If you're in the porn industry, you must've learned something looking through the camera all those times.'"
Luke: "I talked to your publicist and she said: 'Jennifer does not prefer to speak about her sex change in detail. It's a private part of her life and she doesn't like to go too deeply into the whys and whens. She will give you some great quotes as to how she feels about people that want to make an issue out of it though.'"
Jenn: "You quoted her exactly. I know that's exactly what she said.
"I knew you would want to ask about that. I knew somebody cares. It's a non-issue to me.
"A long time ago, it occurred to me that I could make a living as a hooker, which I did. But it was presented to me by my family that it didn't make a difference if I was making a living as a hooker with a dick or without a dick. You're still a hooker."
Around 1980, Jennifer had her penis removed and underwent a sex change.
Jenn: "The real challenge would be to make it in the real world with a real 9-5 job, pay your rent, with a real mortgage, car payments... All the stuff that real people do but a lot of people in our business don't bother with.
"The challenge to make it in the real world had to be about what I was doing, not what I was. You don't maintain a job in the real world by what you are, but by what you do."
Luke: "How many people in the industry try to make an issue out of it?"
Jenn: "Most people leave me along about it. I have been a woman over 25-years. Gee, you want to talk about something that happened a quarter century ago? Who were you a quarter century ago?
"It's not that I'm trying to avoid it, to hide and pretend anything. OK, we've been there and done that. Can we move on and talk about what I want to talk about, which is my movies."
Luke: "How long did you work as a hooker and how did that affect you?"
Jenn: "For a few years. I did real well. I worked with services. I made a considerable amount of money."
Luke: "Did you save any of it?"
Jenn: "No. None of us girls ever do."
Luke: "How many of your friends in the trade came to tragic ends?"
Jenn: "Almost all of them. I don't know a single one of them that got off the streets. All the girls I knew were killed by boyfriends, killed by johns, drug overdoses."
Luke: "What do you attribute your making it out to?"
Jenn: "Blind stubborness. I had help from an uncle who was more understanding than the rest of my family. I probably still wouldn't be alive if he hadn't stepped in. He put a roof over my head and got me off the streets."
Luke: "So how do you feel about the trade knowing that almost all your friends died in it?"
Jenn: "It's a tough business."
Luke: "It kills people."
Jenn: "Yeah."
Luke: "When you look back on your life, which time and place was the happiest?"
Jenn: "The late eighties, way after I worked as a hooker. I was real successful. I had made some money with money and I was buying and selling properties and living independently. I didn't have to worry about paying the rent. I was able to quit cigarettes and do all those things you want to do if you have the time and money.
"In the real estate crash of 1991, I basically lost everything.
"I wrote a book that never went anywhere. It was a comedy book of personal thoughts about life in Los Angeles in the eighties."
Luke: "What do you like to do in your spare time?"
Jenn: "I like to walk on the beach and play with my cats."
Luke: "Have you ever had a drug or alcohol problem?"
Jenn: "Not really. I had a problem with pain pills a long time ago after a car crash.
"The problem with being me, Luke, is that I have so many things against me, I can not afford to have many more. So many people don't like me just because of what I am and what they think I am. I've got a guaranteed problem just to start with so I try to avoid starting more problems.
"As strange as I am, there are people in our business who are stranger than I am."
Luke: "What do you tell strangers who ask what you do for a living?"
Jenn: "I'm so old and feeble, I don't care anymore. I just tell them, 'I make porn movies.' I get mixed reactions. For some people, you might as well be Julia Roberts. You're the coolest thing on the planet. For other people, you just became radioactive. You just turned into a big pile of toxic waste. Let's get as far away from you as possible."
Luke: "How often does that hurt your feelings?"
Jenn: "Not too much anymore. Once you've been through the life I've been through, you've had your feelings hurt quite a few times. It still hurts but once you've been slapped a few times, it doesn't hurt as much."
Luke: "Which of your movies do you consider your best?"
Jenn: "The best movie I ever did has still not been released -- Phantom of the Porn Stage."
Luke: "How much would it mean to you if they win an AVN award?"
Jenn: "It would mean a lot to me. I know it's not cool to say that. It's just a hunk of acrylic. It probably has a lot to do with how much advertising you bought and how many people think you're wonderful. In my case, there aren't a lot of people who think I'm wonderful. I don't buy a lot of advertising.
"It's the most honorary thing our industry gives."
Luke: "Everyone wants to be recognized for their good work."
Jenn: "It is about the work. That's what I choose to talk about rather than to talk about myself. I know that's what you wanted to talk about. People ask me what it's like and I say, 'It's like being born with a club-foot. If I had been born with a club foot, all through childhood, I would've been trying to figure out a way to get the money together to fix the club foot. Once it was fixed, it still wouldn't be perfect. I'd still walk with a limp. I'd say, 'Can we get past the club foot thing now and talk about something else?' Even if you came up to him and said, 'Wow, you've got an orthopedic shoe and look at how well you're doing with your club foot.' Even though you're complementing him, he'd feel, 'Couldn't we just not talk about the club foot for a while?'
"That's what the sex change thing is like for me. I was born with a handicap. I did the best I could to fix it as best as I can. I'm just trying to get through my life as best as I can. I'm just trying to pay my rent and make my movies."
Luke: "Do you have any grander goals?"
Jenn: "A trip into space would be nice."
Luke: "Why don't you want to get married?"
Jenn: "I think men are biologically wired to cheat."
Luke: "You don't want to get married because you're afraid he'll cheat on you?"
Jenn: "No. If I got married, it would have to be an open relationship."
Luke: "Because you would need to play around?"
Jenn: "And I wouldn't want to be wondering if he was playing around. I'm not a jealous person. Marriage then become a piece of paper."
Luke: "What if the person wanted to be in an exclusive relationship with you?"
Jenn: "I don't do monogamy with guys."
Luke: "What's the longest relationship you've had?"
Jenn: "Twenty three years [they lived together for most of that time]. I was with a girl who was an ex-French Vogue model. I met her a few years after I had the [sex-change] surgery in New York. We were together until she passed away six months ago from breast and liver cancer. The last seven years, she's been very sick, with diabetes. She almost died. She was basically bedridden. For the past seven years, I've been taking care of her. I couldn't afford to hire a nurse. I was making porn in the day and taking care of her at night."
Luke: "Do you seek a relationship with a man or a woman?"
Jenn: "It might be too soon for a relationship with a woman.
"Emotionally, it is easier for me to have a relationship with a woman. I understand that thinking."
Luke: "If you were to make a movie about your life, what would you call it?"
Jenn: "Adventures in Fantasyland. I think the porn industry is fantasyland."

"Nope," she says. "Just priorities. I'm fine. Just jealous that Ryan Knox took my place. He's getting all the attention from Gag Daddy and [she's] so pissed off about it. I think it's cuz I don't do anal like Ryan does. Such is life. Pity me. Everyone should be like 'pris.' There's no love anymore.

Dirty Bob Challenges Us To Live In Truth
Houstondon is correct - the big difference in sites is AVN does its best to substantiate facts rather than spread rumors. For those of you who are confused: this is a good thing.
Many other gossip sites' core readers are surely not those who aren't impulse-prone to buy those supermarket mags at the checkout (which rarely have more than a shred of truth in their stories and photos).
If you have a personal vendetta with someone - why not KEEP it personal rather than splash it around and see if it will cause waves or even a small ripple which may get others to join your personal crusade? That is the wimpy way to do things.
Some people live to read and spread dirt; for them it is a way to become (or at least become a part of) something that they are not now and never will be. Kinda sad, actually.
EPA Warns Of Dangerous Levels Of Romance In Air
According to Johnson, teens, recently married couples, and people who have not yet had all of the hope drained out of them by bitter life experience are at the greatest risk.
"We recommend that members of high-risk groups minimize their exposure by staying indoors, covering up, and avoiding old flames, which can react with even trace elements of sexual chemistry to ignite free-floating passions," Johnson said. "Those living in scenic parts of the country are at an especially high risk, and are strongly urged to avoid dazzling sunsets, mountain vistas, fields of wildflowers, and sun-dappled lakes."
Wake And Bake
I call a friend at 10am. He sounds groggy.
Luke: "Why did you change your number?"
Friend: "Holly's been calling."
Luke: "Holly who?"
Friend: "Holly Wood."
Luke: "Do you wake and bake?"
Friend: "Not lately."
Luke: "You mean not today."
Friend: "Not today."
Luke: "How's your girl?"
Friend: "She's launching her website. She started doing live shows last night."
Luke: "Do you have sex with her on camera?"
Friend: "Ahh, not yet."
Luke: "Oh no."
Friend: "I'll do anything for money."
Luke: "Didn't you get a blowjob in a video?"
Friend: "That was a long time ago. We've all grown up since then. We've all calmed down. We don't do drugs anymore. Not hard drugs anyway."
Rob Spallone Wracked By Back Pain
It must be a physical manifestation of psychological distress.
I call him Friday morning.
Rob: "I'm a little better. My back's been out [for over two weeks]. I've only been at my house and at the doctor's. Sciatic nerve."
Luke: "How do you manage to have sex when you have a bad back?"
Rob: "It's not easy but I have no pain when I do that."
Luke: "What are you hearing? People must call you."
Rob: "People call up looking for work. That's about it. Nobody calls me with scoop. I read your internet.
"How's your love life?"
Luke: "Uhh."
Rob: "How's your girl?"
Luke: "Uhh."
Rob: "The photographer."
Luke: "She's good."
Rob: "She's a porn girl now?"
Luke: "She doesn't do porn."
Rob: "She likes to go on the website every day."
I do that to her.
Rob: "She goes to Porn Star Karaoke."
Luke: "Only once and she hated it."
Rob: "Why aren't you taking her to Herschel's play [Prisoner of Second Avenue] like I told you?"
Luke: "I asked her. She ain't into plays. She's into ballet and opera."
Rob: "What is her father into?"
Luke: "Writing books and reading and drinking.
"You know her mom."
Rob: "Who is she?"
Luke: "You were laughing with her at that state assemblyman's hearing in June 2004."
Rob: "She was the drunk lady?"
Luke: "She's got white hair."
Rob: "Short, short hair? She's a drunk."
Luke: "How do you know?"
Rob: "She was bombed out of her mind [at a meeting about the HIV-crisis at the Stage one night]. Wasted. I got along with her. She can be a bitch. She grabbed my cigarettes like she knew me for a hundred years. She was funny."
The photographer emails: "Is Rob talking about the AIDS meeting at the Hustler studios about two years ago? [Yes.] I don't know what he's talking about. She had most certainly NOT been drinking. The stealing his cigarettes thing -- she does that to everyone. Yes, it's annoying but I can't stop her. My mom acts sometimes like she is intoxicated when she's actually not. You should see her when she's shooting a girl she's excited about. You could almost swear she just took something."
Luke: "How much experience have you had with her?"
Rob: "Why? You want me to put in a good word for you? Does she like you? Probably not."
Luke: "I don't know. I met her at her New Year's Eve party at their house."
Rob: "Nice house?"
Luke: "Yes."
Rob: "She invited you."
Luke: "I invited myself."
Rob: "You met the mother and father?"
Luke: "Yeah."
Rob: "Was she drunk?"
Luke: "I don't know. I'm not good at telling these things."
Rob: "Are her parents swingers?"
Luke: "They were. They're too old for that now."
Rob: "What do you mean 'were'? If you're a queer, and you tell me you're not a queer anymore, it's impossible.
"How old is...? Whoa, she looks older than that.
"Why don't you ask [the photographer] to marry you?"
Luke: "I'd want her to...."
Rob: "Forget it. You've lost her. Not your type.
"When are you coming to the Valley? Call us and we'll have my wife make lunch for you."
Porn Girls Crying
A pornographer told me the other day: "I hope we get a lot of sales
from this scene because I'm going to need to buy myself a soul."
Luke: "Why?"
Porner: "She cried a bit which really freaked me out."
Luke: "How often does that happen on your sets?"
Porner: "Never. It was not like sobbing, but her eyes tearing up
because she was in pain. This never happens to me. I felt so awful."
I read your bit about girls crying during their first boy/girl shoot. I have found this to be true as well. I have never had anyone cry during a shoot or after, I screen the girls pretty carefully and I have had several cry during the interview process. This is a classic sign that she has no business doing porn, that she is doing it out of desperation.
Now I know out there in Porn Valley nobody cares why she is doing it or if its going to cause her problems later on in life or even next week. But I can't go that route. I have to be able to look at myself in the mirror and be happy with who I see. Taking advantage of a 20 year old girl who doesn't know what she is getting into is not something I can do. It would be nice if you guys out there had the same sense of compassion.
Dude, it's just like anything else, exercise a little responsibility. Damned if I will f--- up someones life just because I can. And I'm not saying that porn f---s up everyone's life but if the girl breaks into tears during the shoot or the interview, there's a real good possibility it will. Desperation is the WORST reason for doing porn.
I don't care who the girl is. I take her aside I say honey, I'm gettin the idea that this isn't the right thing for you. Here's a kill fee...go home and put this behind you, it isnt worth f--king up your life over. It always happens to me in interviews so it doesn't get that far. It wasn't that the guy was too big. That's the excuse. The girl can give birth. Astroglide can fix the too-big part. The porner would feel a lot better to call it a day.
> What kind of interviews do you do with girls that makes them want to cry?
I always ask one very important question after I get them talking a little bit I always ask why does a nice girl like you want to do something like this her answer to that usually usually determines whether or not I will shoot her, thats the point they will tear up or tell me what situation it is that has them desperate. Only the junkies will usually try to obfuscate but those are the easiest to spot anyway. another question I always ask -- what are you going to do when your parents and your friends find out? I don't accept "they won't find out" as an answer. I tell them all it takes is ONE person who knows you, and everyone you know will know. That's another point where they will tear up. I try to prepare them for the reality of what they are doing. Most girls these days are totally cool with it, no guilt no issues. That's the kind of girl I want to shoot.
Women Want Men With Power
Holly Randall posts on XPT: "You're right about women wanting men with power -- totally true. But what determines power differs from woman to woman. Some women find that money = power, some believe fame = power, some believe good looks = power. For me, intelligence = power. And that kind of power is damn sexy."
Smartt writes about how to impress a woman: "Compliment her, respect her, honour her, cuddle her, kiss her, caress her, love her, stroke her, tease her, comfort her, protect her, hug her, hold her, spend money on her, wine and dine her, buy things for her, listen to her, care for her, stand by her, support her, hold her, go to the ends of the earth for her."
Pris writes: "Guess we didn't do these things for Gen [Padova] and thats why she left?"
Cassandra (a 19yo civilian) writes:
Do you really think your common porn whore is capable of understanding or even appreciating such abstract concepts as "support" or "honor" or even "compliment" sans comments devoid of how much you want to bust a nut up in their grill? do you think any lowly cumstump of this ilk really gives a ---- about such extravagant sentimental nothings?
I'm not saying the common pornwhore doesn't have appreciative value, just that the idea of lauding them with traits that they don't have is a pathetic mistake. regardless the irony of you saying a porn forum doesn't care about airs of intelligence is fucking hilarious and i hope your pimp beats you with encyclopedia brittanica and doesn't let up until the Q's...
Da Burglar writes: "The supremely, stark, ironic fact that the sexiest women on this porn board, Cassandra and Holly Randall, DO NOT ACTUALLY perform in pornographic films. It is supremely refreshing and stimulating."
Journalistic Double-Dipping
One journalist who's done stings on various escort services writes up his experiences in the papers as though he pays the girl, she offers sex, he offers excuses, and then he leaves. Not quite what happens. Rather, he bangs the hell out of each hooker. He says Victoria Silvstedt is filthy. That she's seeing every Arab going.
New Model
This girl, 19, comes in for Polaroids with a porn photographer. She's been sent by a major agent. This is her first shoot. She must've posed nude for her agent, because he sent out pictures.
The girl is shaking with nervousness. The photographer tells her to stop and take deep breaths. The photographer sent all the guys away. The photographer started her off clothed, then had her slowly take her clothes off.
The photographer asked her to take her bra off. The girl freaked. She didn't want her boobs to be shown. When asked to take her panties off, the girl freaked again and said, "But then I'll be naked?"
I asked the photographer (who's shot over 100 girls) if she's ever tried to talk a model out of working in porn. She said no.
Christie Lee was a nervous wreck on her first shoots.
It's not uncommon for girls to cry on their first boy-girl scenes.
She says her still shoot with Earl Miller (several years ago) was the most horrible experience of her life and that's why she hasn't done another one. (Plenty of models love Earl Miller, such as Janine and Celeste.) Until now. Soon Kendra will shoot for suze.net.
Kendra is doing something with Club Jenna. Kendra asked Jenna Jameson if she should shoot for Suze Randall. Jenna said "Yes, you'll have a great experience. Suze and Holly will make you feel good."
Jenna Jameson ripped Suze in her book. They met up at Paul Fishbein's wedding a few months ago. Suze gave Jenna a piece of her mind.
Earl Miller and Suze Randall have been feuding for years. They hate each other. They fight over models. Their latest fight was over 18-year old Southern California girl Gina Beckham, who was advertised as available for girl-girl and solo work.
Earl determined to sign Gina exclusively and pay her a great amount every week. Earl won this fight. Suze wondered how Earl could pay so much money (suze.net gets more traffic than earlmiller.com but I don't know who gets the most sign-ups).
Gina wanted Earl's steady income. Gina cancelled her scheduled shoots with Suze Randall and other producers. Suze and Holly were furious. They let their feelings be known. It made no difference.
James DiGiorgio writes me: "Please tell me neither suze randall, earl miller, or holly randall shot that B&W image of the blonde in front of the plywood background. The lighting leaves more than a little to be desired. (I'm being nice saying it that way.)"
None of them shot that photo.
Holly writes me: "My mom and Clive Mclean were old rivals. But they became friendly shortly before he was diagnosed with cancer, and my mom helped support Erica and Clive while he was dying -- often visiting them, bringing him soup as she loves to do. Clive was a good guy -- it was the competitive nature of LFP that I think pitted them against each other all those years ago."

Paris Dahl Shoots For Suze Randall
Holly Randall writes me:
We are shooting Paris Dahl (Penthouse Pet, last year's August issue I THINK) in her very first boy/girl. And unlike the Amy Ried mix-up, we are quite positive this is her first time. She's a spunky little thang with a adorably bratty attitude; when Julian first pulled out his dick her eyes almost popped out of her head because she couldn't believe how big it was. But she became accustomed to it and I think the video scene is going to be pretty hot!
And Cassidey Rae came in today-- we are for sure going to shoot her with Kendra Jade on the 21st. Should be fun!
Cam writes: "That Paris Dahl girl that Holly just shot has a really great back arch--almost Ginger Lynn-esque. Let's hope Holly took advantage of that in her shoot. I'm not incredibly familiar with Holly's work--I often wonder if female photographers *get* how to position a woman the way a man would want to see them."
Paris had a long painful shoot Thursday. Julian is hung. Still, she did not want to quit. She just wanted to be done.
I hope she doesn't get chewed up in the meatgrinder of porn. She deserves better. I hate to see beautiful women throw their lives away.
Holly: i just got a message from 2cums at XPT
Holly: he said the picture of me

Holly: i would hardly call that picture of me sexy, would you?
Luke: no, but it is very sweet, which can be sexy
Chaim Amalek writes:
Dear Holly:
You know I want only the best for you and Luke, but as much as I think that Luke is the man for you, he has a history with horses that I don't feel comfortable discussing here. I suggest you rent the movie "Equus" to get a better understanding of this seldom discussed aspect of Luke's relationship to the animal kingdom. I would also be on my toes whenever Luke and dogs are present. (Kendra Jade has heard about these matters, so feel free to ask her.)
PS Isn't Deciumus a great slave name? And did you know that Disney's "Song of the South" has yet to make it to home video? Those who have controlled Disney since the start of the video era are afraid of what the darkies might say were white people to once again be able to see this movie. These rich but fearful men "know" in their heart of hearts that no matter how much control they may have over the goyim for the moment, the time is coming when Cossack riders on horses will come charging over the Hollywood Hills with whips in hand, reducing even the Weinstein brothers and Spielberg to whimpering, crying Jews right before their own shamed sons and soon-to-be-ravished daughters. Only the Cossacks won't be Cossacks - who were Christian. They will be Jihadists, who are Muslim. It is only a matter of time before politically savvy Muslims begin to fix their gaze on Hollywood and charge in on camels, without any fear of Jewish lawyers to inhibit them as they clean out these Augean Stables of moral filth. When that day comes, decent people will once again be able to view "Song of the South" in the comfort of their homes, "Deciumus" will once again be used as a name men give their sons (especially hip-hop moguls), and Hollywood big shots will stop etching caricatures of The Prophet Mohammed onto their toilet bowls.

If you hang out with Holly, Joanna Angel and I, all will become clear.

AVN.com Vs. Lukeford.com Vs. Adultfyi.com Vs. Lukeisback.com
Peter Warren posts on AVN's blog:
Yesterday, Lukeford.com posted a claim that a certain other two sites had more daily updates of better quality than AVN.com. And that we have a staff of 20. Well, uh, our staff is less than half that size, first off, and there are really only three of us whose full-time job it is to write for AVN.com. And just out of curiosity, I counted up the postings on all three sites yesterday and here's what I found out: site B [Lukeisback.com] didn't come anywhere close to our number, and while site A [Adultfyi] had about the same amount, the vast majority of them (I'd estimate 75% or so) were cut-and-pasted stories from other outlets and/or had nothing whatsoever to do with the sex industry. So I thought I'd point that out. You know, in our defense and whatnot.
Ben writes: "These people are nuts, Luke. You should OWN them all. You are smart enough, obviously. You appear to have the integrity.

SHOES! I LOVE SHOES
A chat with Anna Malle.
By Tom O’Connell (2/9/06) for the New York Press
I asked Lainie if she thought the porn shops would still stock the prosthetic vagina/rectum of our late porn star friend, Anna Malle. “Of course they will,” she said. “Anna would have wanted it that way.”
My ex-girlfriend Lainie and I were both sad to hear that Anna’s body had been torn apart in a car accident in Las Vegas two weeks ago. At the time of her death, Anna and her husband, Hank Armstrong, had retired from the business and taken straight jobs (Anna worked for the Bloomingdale’s bridal registry). The following was to appear with video clips we shot for a porno site, but the ax fell on that operation, and it never ran. Anna’s memory lives on not only in our hearts, but in the rubber replicas of her torso that men are still sliding their stuff into, even in death.
“You guys don’t mind if I get changed right here, do you?”
Anna Malle doesn’t wait for an answer. She seldom does. Off comes the top, revealing two enormous silicone globes, their nipples pointing up. She shimmies out of tight leopard-print pants, and there it is, the famous pink pussy that’s been immortalized as a vibrating sex toy that men actually stick their dick in and make sweet love to.
And her husband, Hank Armstrong? He’s standing a few feet away in the kitchen of this one-bedroom apartment in Soho. I shoot the shit with him as Anna slips into her porn-star uniform—black-leather mini, pink baby T, clear stilettos—in the living room. When Anna is ready, she and Hank get comfortable on a couch, under the glare of a hot light and in the sights of a video camera—home, sweet home—for an interview for a porno Web site.
Anna Malle is a beautiful brunette firecracker. She’s a self-described “total Midwestern girl,” an improbable-sounding tag for a fading plastic-enhanced bombshell who gets it on for a living. The Iowa native met Detroit-born Hank while dancing at a strip club where he tended bar, on the gulf coast of Florida.
“We had sex within the first hour of meeting each other,” she says, “but then we fell in love.”
Hank and Anna aren’t afraid to discuss the inherent negatives of porn.
“Once you cross the line and make your first video, you can never take it back,” says Hank.
“My two sisters totally disowned me,” says Anna.
They recently celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary.
They are an anomaly. And neither of them has that delusional Hollywood-speak manner that a lot of stars in this business have.
Exactly how old Hank was when they met is a little hazy. Anna: Subtract. Subtract 11. Hank: Thirty-five, 30. I’m 46 now, so subtract 11. Anna: Thirty-something. We have no idea. Yes, it’s 35.
What is definite is Hank and Anna’s love of sex. “We tell people all the time that we got in the business for the wrong reason: because we like sex,” says Anna, her gorgeous brown eyes lit up, her sharp, distinctive, perma-grin jaw easing out each lovely word. “And we do.”
Hank and Anna are distinct from other porn couples for two reasons: They entered the porn-movie business as a couple, and they did so as swingers. A few months after they met, while they were still working in the strip club, they had sex with another couple that had come into the club to see Anna dance. For them, swinging is about wanting to sleep with other people and see each other with other people. (Anna swings both ways; Hank is a straight shooter.)
“I enjoy seeing Hank enjoy sexual pleasure,” says Anna. But she’s quick to point out an essential trait of their relationship: “We know the difference between sex and love, you know.”
Jealousy, of course, is the big question I have for people like them. Most couples in this business will perform intellectual gymnastics in explaining why there is no jealousy at all—as do Anna and Hank, until I press them and they admit that they, too, suffer from life’s basest emotion, just like any other poor bastard who carries his heart on his sleeve.
Most of us are horrified at the thought of seeing our significant other getting it on with someone else; swinging porn stars are a different breed. Sex for them is business and pleasure. And the business of pleasure makes certain demands on one’s self-confidence and security. But Hank and Anna experience jealousy on a more esoteric level than do the rest of us.
“If Hank were to have sex with a girl that I knew was totally just trying to break us up, then it’s really bad,” says Anna. “We could never have a girlfriend. There could never be another Hank and Anna.”
“I just know where her heart is, and I don’t see a threat to be jealous,” says Hank.
Anna and Hank are not long for this industry. Anna is in her late 30s. As incredible as she looks now, she’d like to bow out gracefully in three to five years.
“I don’t want to read anything from someone seeing me at the porn convention—‘Sure wish she’d kept her clothes on.’ I never want to read anything like that.”
They are exploring several entrepreneurial ideas. For a while, they considered opening a bar in their home base of Las Vegas, before they decided that the extremely labor-intensive and red-tape-strewn pursuit was not for them. Now they’re talking about a chain of adult-video and accessory stores.
“Shoes, I love shoes,” says Anna. “So I have to have shoes, whatever I do. I’ll have to have shoes, and sell them, too.”

David Brock Vs Cathy Seipp On Media Bias
Download debate one in .dvf format. Debate two. Tom Sizemore. Part two.
Cathy emails me Wednesday night:
I hope you transcribed the dangly-breasted women's studies-type girl's "question" because I'm curious to see if it was actually as tedious as it seemed before I cut her off. Talk about a time warp! First a throwback to the '70s bra-burning look, and then honest-to-God '70s-style streakers.
And then there was the time warp back just to yesterday, when tonight's Muslim student asked exactly the same question -- "What if it were an offensive picture of Jesus Christ?" -- as the Muslim students last night and thought he was being original.
Did I seem meaner to the fuzzy-headed students tonight? Last night I thought I was pretty kindly, but tonight I think I had less patience for unoriginality and sloppy thinking.
And I'll bet the dangly-breasted girl was lying about her father being in five concentration camps too. Wouldn't that make him a bit old to be the father of a college student? Or was this "The 40-Year-Old Freshman" or something?
I email Cathy: "Wasn't [X] obnoxious?"
She replies: "As obnoxious as you bringing up the topic of double anal right there at dinner with all these professors?"
Luke: "I said double-penetration."
I would never be so uncouth as to raise double-anal at a dinner with professors. Unless they wanted me to, or drove me to it by being very boring.
Sometimes these stuffed-shirt types need loosening up, and, come to think of it, there's nothing like a discussion of double-anal to do just that.
Over dinner with the profs, I learned that Playboy had little success at USC and UCLA when they came seeking girls to pose naked. I guess they have more success at Chico State, San Diego State and other less prestigious schools. The more accomplished the woman, the less likely she is to pose naked for publication.
Dennis Prager: 'Michael Fumento is a truth-seeker'
"I am not happy with the way Scripps-Howard let Michael go."
Scripps-Howard is about the lowest rung syndication network.
Fumento says he's done 150 columns for the service.
Michael: "It doesn't bode well for Hillary Clinton's vast-right-wing conspiracy. It's a left-wing conspiracy. Doug Bandow had a column for Scripps-Howard. He lost his column because he was involved in the Jack Abramoff scandal. [Bandow] was paid per column by Abramoff.
"The Left got an idea. Bandow was rid off because he took money for something he wrote. Let's put together an enemies list. Let's just say they were paid for pieces and let's give them to sympathetic reports. The only two reporters I've found who have taken this is Sharon Waxman at The New York Times [who has not published on the story yet] and Eamon Javers at Business Week.
Cathy Seipp writes in The LAT:
In making his defense, Fumento had written a column (for TownHall.com) that struck me as more of an unwitting self-prosecution. Exhibit A: gratuitous description of Monsanto's "exciting biotech products." Exhibit B: complaint that it should have "meant something" to Scripps Howard News Service that he wrote all his 100-plus columns for free. My God, yes, it certainly should have. Namely, that if the news service wasn't paying for them, someone else must have been.
Fumento says his job is coming to an end at the Hudson Institute in the next month. "A little bit of it has to do with my not having a column anymore. My being involved in this scandal. They know I didn't do anything wrong but there's this taint. There's been scandal involved in his name. That's why Scripps dropped me. They didn't even consult me."
Fumento says it is the practice for fellows at think tanks to solicit corporate money (as Fumento did). "Hudson finally said enough is enough."
Fumento says he lost his job writing for the Rocky Mountain News (owned by Scripps-Howard) after his first book (The Myth of Heterosexual AIDS) was published.
Prager: "There is something frightening going on here where a particularly important columnist, a voice this society can not afford to lose. Apparently you have annoyed enough people that you need to be quieted. I am frightened, not for me, [but for society]."
I called in to Prager's show. I was the first caller on this topic.
Luke: "A journalist can not go soliciting money from people he plans to write about. Michael Fumento asked for money from Monsanto and various agribusiness companies to finance his [2003] book [BioEvolution]. He did not disclose it in his book. It's an elementary matter of journalistic ethics. He should be fired."
Prager: "Who should've fired him?"
Luke: "Anyone who employs him as a journalist. He did something beyond the pale. If I'm going to write about somebody, I can't go to them and ask them for money to write about them. He didn't disclose it in his book and he didn't disclose it in his columns."
Michael: "These rules are new to me. In fact, they are new to everybody. Are you a writer?"
[My answer did not make it on the air.] Luke: "Yes."
Michael: "These rules are new to me. They are new to everybody. That's exactly what Business Week did. They invented new rules and applied them retroactively. I don't care much for retroactive rules. I'm willing to follow rules that are made up before I do something."
I think that these rules are not retroactive. It is elementary journalistic ethics that you do not solicity funds from people you plan to write about.
Michael: "The book took four years to write. I got far less than minimum wage to write it."
Dennis: "In retrospect, you should've mentioned the [Monsanto] grant."
Michael: "Yes.
"The other way the other side [the Left] works is that they do not [concern themselves with truth]."
Fumento keeps painting the issue as a Left-Right debate when it is a matter of journalistic ethics. "Whenever you analyze research, you examine the funding," notes a caller. "For your guest to say that all of a sudden there are new rules...to not disclose your source of funding. Corporations do not give away something for no value. To say that this is a new rule is an egregious misstatement for scholars and scientists."
Michael: "Give me an example of someone who has lost a column for taking a grant seven years ago."
Dennis: "Michael made a mistake. I don't think he should be a lost voice for America."
The way Fumento reacted to Cathy Seipp's critique struck me as screamingly gay. From the first time I heard Fumento on Prager's show (circa 1989), I thought, this man is gay. What kind of straight man (who is a scholar) would publish on his website a picture of himself in a thong? And then take offence at comments people make about his nipples?
Fumento writes: "Seipp posted a photo of me on her website, inviting her readers to laugh. Don't know if I'm in Brad Pitt territory, but does this woman not look like a mouse that drowned in a bottle of Old Milwaukee?"
This is the type of catty remark that gay men make.

"YOU SHOULD CONTRIBUTE."
In his career at Hudson, Fumento has carved out a specialty debunking critics of the agribusiness and biotechnology industries. In 1999, he says, he solicited $60,000 from Monsanto to write a book on the business. The book, entitled BioEvolution was published in 2003. A spokesman for Monsanto confirmed the payments to the Hudson Institute.
Asked about the payments, Fumento says, "I'm just extremely pro-biotech." He says he solicited several agribusiness companies to finance his book, which was published by Encounter Books. "I went after everybody, I've got to be honest," Fumento says of his fund-raising effort. "I told them that if I tell the truth in this book, the biotech industry is going to look really good, and you should contribute."
The Monsanto grant, he says, flowed from the company to the Hudson Institute to support his work. A portion went to overhead and "most of it" went into his salary. He says the money was simply folded into his salary for that year, and therefore represented no windfall to him personally.
"STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS." The book's acknowledgements cite support from The Donner Foundation and "others who wish to remain anonymous." Fumento didn't disclose the payment from Monsanto either in the book or in at least eight columns he has written mentioning Monsanto since 1999.
Wednesday Night Three Male Streakers Interrupt Cathy Seipp's USC Debate With David Brock Over Media Bias
Cathy, the moderator Michael Dear, and David (along with the audience) seemed thrilled with the 7:56 pm interruption of a boring audience question about Valerie Plame.
The streakers (part of some larger free-speech protest at USC over the past few weeks) ran up and down the aisles (wearing backpacks filled, I assume, with clothes) and out the side door.
The second night of debate reprised the first night. Cathy spoke up for American news organizations linking to the controversial Danish cartoons about the Islamic prophet Mohammed.
David Brock, on the first night, accuses Cathy of being funded by the right-wing. Yeah, she does some opinion pieces for National Review Online and the Independent Women's Forum and probably makes about $250 each. And she got about $150 for reprint rights for her FrontPagemag.com articles. David Brock, meanwhile, got a $2million grant from left-wing sources for his organization Media Matters, which bills itself as: "A non-profit progressive research and information center dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation..."
"Maybe that's because I'm better at what I do," said David, when Cathy pointed out his grant.
About the same time he came out as a homosexual (circa 1995), Brock decided to become left-of-center politically.
Both nights of debate, the audiences are largely composed of apathetic students, many of them wearing sweats. It's rare that they cheer. They never boo. A handful ask questions. A handful hang around afterwards (including two Muslim women in headcovering) to talk to Cathy (I only notice one or two trying to talk to David Brock, he's not friendly). None of them seem to want to date me.
I hear one student say he's grateful that the media bias debate sounds more interesting than USC's last such program -- about whale talk.
David Brock doesn't answer questions. He uses them as pretexts to say whatever he wants. When I tried a dozen different questions afterwards to open him up, he had nothing to say.
Brock evinces little interest in what anyone has to say.
I would like a job counseling college students, particularly attractive female college students. I would like to be their moral leader in these turbulent times.
To me, the worst part of participating in such debates is being subjected to the earnest harangues of non-hot people who must pour their views all over you (I couldn't care less about the in-depth views of 99.9% of humanity on media bias, politics, religion, et al) and you can't escape them.
Dennis Prager notes that when he's picked up at the airport for a speech, he's forced to give his speech twice (to the audience and to the driver).
Listening is often more work, and more annoying, than speaking.
When someone speaks or writes on something for pay, they usually don't want to be subject to the views and interrogations of amateurs. I'd rather talk to such people about something interesting in their personal life. What do I care about amateurish views on politics and media when I've devoted enormous study to these mattes?
David Brock (who smokes and has impossibly black hair) included Bill O'Reilly and Pat Robertson in "America's Taliban."
A Question For Holly
Jack writes on the Suze chatboard:
Do most porn stars find their work . . . ahem . . . greatly satisfying? What I'm curious about is do many of the porn stars work in the business primarily because they consider themselves exhibitionists and find that they enjoy sex more knowing they are being watched than when they have sex privately or that it is a huge turn-on for them to feel they are promoting human sexuality? Let's face it, we all know that many porn stars are in the business merely because they feel it is the easiest way to earn a buck (just ask Jenna Jameson). But, approximately what percentage of porn stars, from your own personally acquired knowledge in this business, are in it primarily for love of sex and uninhibited expression of their sexuality?
Hillary writes me: "Hope all is well. You should be over Holly and Joanna by now. Time for a new high-morals woman who you ain't gonna find in a movie or at PSK. Maybe a bookstore, or college campus, or a Jews for Jesus meeting! I hink you only pick girls that you know you shouldn't be with or girls that you won't get. How about one that would love you for you, with all your quirks? An artist perhaps?"
A friend calls: "I love it when Holly Randall is on your site. You're so funny when you're with her. She's good for you. You can tell you really like her.
"Would you have banged hookers with me?"
"No."
"I didn't think so."
Jewel DeNyle: 'Sean Had To Go'
We are fine and have much product to put out nothings changed on that end. Sean [Michaels] had to go it was nothing personal just business, we do things a certain way and he didn't follow the rules. I love him to death as a person but there's only so much we can do for him then he needs to start doing for himself. He would be better having a place where he could just be talent and have a full time crew to do the work behind the camera for him. That would be ideal for his way of doing things. We expect alot from our directors booking,paperwork,scene breakdowns,payment vouchers,editors notes etc... It's not as easy as it looks. We are taking on new directors just like we did in the beginning. We made many directors famous and we plan to keep the tradition.
Caballero Layoffs
A handful of Caballero employees complained to the labor board that the company had not paid overtime to any employees in over ten years. As a result owners Danny Mamaine and Tom Yoffe fired everyone [involved] but were ordered to pay compensation to any and all workers who were duped for their hard work.
A source writes:
Caballero owns Vertigo, which I assume you know. I worked for them doing graphics and did photography for their films. I quit in November, aftert which they bounced $2000 in checks for photo work I did, then proceeded to use those images in their Jan AVN ad illegally (since they never paid, they don't own the copyright). After they started bouncing checks to talent and vendors as well, they apparently shut Vertigo down, I assume to avoid payment. Which is funny, since Tomer has a new company car, from what I hear... and their Vertigo and Caballero booths at AVN were quite large and expensive. I heard they let Mike Barbella, the sales guy for Vertigo, go this week too.
Another source writes:
They pulled me in to do re-design of their "mainstream" boxes (freelance)...after doing them, I called to find out how I was getting paid and they said "Danni decided to stop that particular project" I said ok, but I still need to get paid, and was told.."The project has been dropped, there will be no pay for the work you did" Now this mutherf----- was only paying $200 a box in the first goddamn place...but I was promised a HUGE flow of work...they LOVED my boxes...and USED them without paying me! I was warned MANY times about working with them...but I really wanted to work flow...fuckin scumbag! This was last August..the kicker is, a friend of mine who also does design called them and they set up an interview for him to do the same boxes...we all know each other asshole.

I spot Terri Redor from The Floating World.
"Hey," I say. "Did your girlfriend give you your balls back?"
Gram Ponante: "What's with the language?"
Sasha Knox, 21, has been in porn for six months and done over 50 scenes. "I figured I might as well get paid for it. I did over 300 men before I came into the business."
Luke: "How do you think that's affected you?"
Sasha: "It's made me an amazing lover."
Luke: "How has being in the industry affected you?"
Sasha: "It's given me lots of money. It hasn't changed me at all.
"I tell anyone I date that I'm in the business and if they can't handle it, they can go to hell."
Luke: "Are there any men who can handle it for long?"
Sasha: "No. Everybody in my life can handle it. I have lots of boys who I love very much..."
Luke: "What do you want to get out of your time in the industry?"
Sasha: "I just want to buy a house. I'm very interested in getting married and having babies when I'm done. I want to bring some money to the table...and then have some marital bliss. I don't want to stay in it any longer than I should. My focus is making one man very happy."
Luke: "What kind of crowd did you hang out with in highschool?"
Sasha: "The goths. It doesn't look like it now but that's what I'm about -- music and life and poetry and Scotch."
Luke: "When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?"
Sasha: "Since the day I was born to now, I've wanted to be a professional muse. I come in, I shake things up, then I move on."
Luke: "How have family and friends reacted?"
Sasha: "They love it. Nobody was surprised. This is what I should be doing."
Sasha says she's thought about doing porn since age 15. "I'm a licensed phlebotomist. I did nursing as well, but it was too much work for not enough money."
Sasha lost her virginity at 13.
She's repped by Monroe Modeling.
Holly Randall emails me: "Any idea who this girl is? She's really pretty. Was *hoping* she might be talent."
She's Devon Davis. She did a few girl-girl scenes in 1999. She's married to Jonathan Davis, lead singer of Korn. She hasn't done porn or nude modeling for many years.
It was Bad Ass Frank night. He was celebrating his birthday.
What's going on in this Sasha pic? Willie D writes: "The blowjob lips are a natural porn whore response. Chico Wang posted something like this on one of his ADT diatribes. It went along the lines of, You can push a porn whore down to her knees, she'll reflexively open her mouth to accept a dick. Like Pavlov's dogs. Apparently Wanker was right. Beer bottles seem like a close substitute."
Holly writes: "This is why Luke is so damn dangerous with the camera-- he has a knack for capturing people in awkward moments. That's why I'm so grateful he allows me to personally edit his shots of me; if I had allowed him to post some of the shots he's taken, you guys would have a field day with it."
Holly writes: "Porn is like a black hole. Unless you're faster than the speed of light, you will never escape. (evil chuckle)"
Wanker Wang writes on ADT:
Here's what a whore is and its relation to the adult business. A whore is any girl who f---s for money. I would say 90% of the girls in the industry hate what they do and f--- only for money. I would also say that 99% of the girls in the industry hate getting assf---ed but do it only for the money. I would also say that 99% of the girls in the industry have serious issues such as but not limited to previous bouts with rape, incest, molestation, drug abuse, pimp boyfriends, etc. Most have an IQ of room temperature. Most do not have automobiles. Most do not have bank accounts. Most do not and cannot acquire a credit card. Most squander all their porn earnings almost immediately. Most will end up penniless and return to the business because their job skills relegate them to a lifelong search for a drug dealing sugardaddy or public assistance. Most have complete lack of self-esteem. These are societal problems and cannot be blamed on an adult industry which neither cares or should care. The fact that I could call a new porn girl a 'f---ing whore' and, when I explain myself, they shower me with hugs as I tell them that they should suck as much dick as possible to get ahead tells you alot.
Yes, I coach these girls too on how to be the best whore they can be. It's more of a longetivity and monetary issue as opposed to a derogatory one. Here's an interesting story. I usually have whores running rampant around my abode. When a friend asks me how he can get blown by these whores, I tell them to go up next to them and pull out their peckers. It's the easiest way. Why? These girls are conditioned to suck dick. When there's a dick in front of them, they look like a deer caught in the headlights and don't know what to do. It's instinct for them to suck it until it coats the back of their throats with nut butter.
Now tell me this. Do you think the girls in the industry love what they do? Nearly every scene ends in a facial. Can you really fathom how truly degrading this act really is? Can you really fathom how truly degrading it is to suck off 5 complete strangers and gulp down their ball snot and have to pretend they loved every minute of it? Can you really fathom how truly degrading it is to suck on a dick that's been pulled out of your own asshole which smells like complete shit? They do it for the money and that's what makes them whores. Let me repeat: THAT'S WHAT MAKES THEM WHORES. I think alot of you forget after watching so many DVDs exactly what the reality is. You fall into a trap of fantasy land thinking these girls love what they do. If there was no paycheck involved, the female talent pool would drop to nothing. They don't do it for the sheer love of it. They get drilled in the asshole, they take a mugfull of cum, they f--- complete strangers, because of one reason only. THEY ARE WHORES. Get out of fantasyland and really think about it.

Mike John Is Done With Porn
For real.
CURACAO – CECash, the affiliate spinoff of Cybererotic, issued a statement late Wednesday announcing the departure of longtime employees MikeB and BigB from the company.
