Blonde Earl Slate (Tony Stearns) ranked among the leading male performers until gossip damaged his career in the Spring of 1998.

Bill Margold says Earl reminds him of the naive hustler played by Jon Voight in the 1969 film Midnight Cowboy.

From early 1997 thru 199, Earl has dated Jasmine St. Clair. When together in public they snipe at each other. Jasmine says Earl is stupid and Earl says Jasmine is immature.

The following gossip killed Earl's performing career:

· That he shoots up his penis before scenes to insure a strong erection.

· Doing transsexual videos, where he buttf---ed guys dressed as girls.

· A criminal record that includes jail time for aggravated assault. When a man broke a beer bottle over his head in a bar, Earl beat the man into a coma.

· Drug and alcohol use, and unsafe sexual practices with women not in the industry, including prostitutes.

To rehabilitate his career from the above accusations and others, Earl turned to several sources for help, including myself, Donna Stanton and Bill Margold. Our reportage on his problems only made things worse.

Earl has performed in over 200 videos in his two years in the business. A tall good looking well-built blonde, he came down with gonorrhea around the time of a gangbang of Shayla LaVeaux in late March [Starbangers 11]. Shayla did ten guys. Slate says he caught the disease prior to the gangbang but that he did not realize the discharge from his penis in the days before the bang was gonorrhea.

Earl: "There have been lots of malicious slanderous rumors about me that could damage my career and my income. And all those rumors were based on exactly that. Rumors. PAW endorses me, saying I do everything that they require as far as testing, not working when you're on a list… When a case of gonorrhea went around, I picked it up and I didn't work until I was cleared by the doctor with a letter. Everything I have done has been done step-by-step with PAW's regulations. PAW is the authority on this, not different talent who want to make judgements. Not only does PAW endorse me [Margold vouched for this], but the rest of the industry should as well.

"There was a gonorrhea epidemic that I picked up. I may have passed it on to a few people, before I realized I had it. But once I realized, I got treated. But a person has taken it upon herself to say that I was the one who brought it into the industry and worked for several weeks knowing I had it.

"But it was going around for weeks before I got it.

"This person was probably just concerned with the welfare of the talent, but she may have gotten her information from bad sources.

"Sharon Mitchell told me that there was an epidemic of gonorrhea in LA county earlier this year, with over 3000 reported cases.

"Starting rumors is inconsiderate and damaging. I had to employ a lawyer who told me to have PAW sit her down and tell her to not do that. If she continues to spread these nasty rumors, my attorney will start an action against her.

"If directors want to hire me, but girls don't want to work with me [because of these rumors], I can't work."

Earl says he has never used IV drugs nor had a homosexual experience.

"I am not the only person who has been victimized by this person. There were a group of five guys. One did deserve to be attacked. Because he was trying to work even while he was the quarantine list."

Earl entered porn in May of 1996. "At first I got in for the glamour and excitement. That wore off after the second scene. Now I am the business 100% for the money. It is not fun. It is not pleasurable. You don't do it like you would do it in your bedroom. That would be fun. On the set you do it the way the director wants it done. You stop, you start.

"I've moved myself into the A-list of guys. And I get paid well. It's common for me to do a two-to-three thousand dollar week which support my habits such as boats, cars, apartments on the water in Marina Del Rey, eating out breakfast, lunch and dinner… It's an expensive lifestyle.

"I've been out of work for a month now because of this last scare [Caroline's HIV+]. The minute they told me she came up positive, I cancelled that day $3000 worth of work. I'm in today getting the new PCR/DNA test.

"I don't worry much. I don't believe that straight guys can get HIV from a woman. Most guys who get it are sharing needles or being homosexuals. The woman is not putting fluids into my body.

"I worked with Caroline in the Annabolic gangbang which was before she came up positive. Then I worked with her the week before she tested positive. The French girl Mia Cicerro produced it. I DP'd Caroline with John West. I was in the pussy."

I sat on the couch 5/4/98 in the PAW office with Jasmine St. Claire and her boyfriend Earl Slate.

I saw Jasmine for the first time in two years at the Erotica LA fair and noticed that she had lost weight. I wondered if she had been doing cocaine?

She said no. She'd been taking diet pills by mistake.

Earl and Jasmine fondled and teased each other while munching on jelly beans officially approved and endorsed by Bill Margold.

Jasmine to Earl: Do me a favor and keep quiet.

Bill Margold: Suitcase pimp. Porsche Lynn came up with the term.

Jasmine: I think it is so funny.

Bill: They are the men who follow behind the women.

Earl: My alarm is going off [in Earl's jallopy] because the rain is getting in.

Jasmine: Then go put the top up.

Bill: That's pretty good. It tells you when it is wet.

Earl: It's a convertible but it's got a….

Jasmine: Earl and I don't socialize with this industry. We just do our thing and leave. I'm here to make money.

Bill is trying to persuade Earl and Jasmine to attend Shane's barbaque.

Bill: "She is one of the great good will people in this business. If anyone is the heir apparent to Nina Hartley, it is Shane or XXX. Shane has put more time in. Christi brings things to a higher level: She invented the fan club thing. That is cool. It gives you a chance to go to fantasy baseball league.

"With the gangbangs, I was amused that some people who should not have taken their clothes off, appeared on the sets."

Jasmine: That's why they keep their shirts on.

There was this really fat man (the Charpe man?) who kept trying to kiss me. I told him not to.

Bill: I was invited to the first gangbang but no. Standing around in a room with a bunch of men jacking off is not my thing.

The most I ever did was with two other men and a girl named Rosa McKimble. They couldn't function and I had to do all the work. It was a movie called Flesh and Laces in 1982. It was a movie where I played myself, after I had been killed in a previous movie playing the same character.

Bill and his teddy bear appeared in a 9/97 movie shot at Iverson Ranch with Jasmine St. Clair called PunkAss.

Bill to Jas: You had very little patience with guys who weren't doing their job. You go away so I can get something better.

I never understood why Rob Fontana didn't screw in that scene. He screamed at you and then walked off the set.

It was one of the few times that I was an extra. I had invited a lot of the Foxters there and I wanted to see them. They were pleased that I showed up on the set.

Jas: They were yelling at the men screwing me, 'Do it harder. Do it harder.'

Earl to Jas: On the record, am I your roadie or what?

Jas: Huh?

Earl: He is recording this.

Luke: You guys are in love. It is so obvious. The way you gaze into each others' eyes. You just melt when he is in the room.

Jas: I don't melt. I don't gaze.

Luke: You become all soft and sweet and feminine.

Bill, Earl and Luke laugh. Jas is ticked. "You guys are crazy."

"He can't even construct a full paragraph or spell words right."

Bill: Women love stupid men.

Jasmine laughs.

Earl: She likes big, strong and stupid.

Jas: He's nicer than any of the guys I've been out with.

Luke: How long have you guys been smooch smooch?

Jas and Earl: A year.

Bill: That you can maintain a relationship in this business, that's more power to both of you. The industry is jealous.

Jas: We have a life outside.

Earl: We don't really associate with the industry.

Earl: If you…

Jas: Why don't you just shut up! Shut up! That's the most disgusting thing.

Luke: Do you two [Earl and Jasmine] just do dry rubbing?

Jas: We have not had sex in three weeks because of this quarantine thing.

Luke: Have you given him hand jobs?

Jas: No.

Bill: You can make out.

Earl: I give her oral satisfaction.

Luke: Does it calm her down?

Jas giggles.

Earl: For a minute. The muscles in my tongue have become tremendously stronger the last few weeks.

Luke: Shouldn't you at least give him hand jobs?

Jas: Let him do it himself. My hand gets tired.

Earl: I like to watch her naked and jerk off.

Bill to Earl: You like to use your left hand too?

Earl. Oh yeah.

Luke: Yeah. Yeah. I always use my left hand too.

Bill: Do you write with your right hand?

Luke: Yeah.

Jas: I just use a pocket rocket.

Jas: I feel sorry for the guys.

Luke: You don't fluff these guys and give them oral encouragement?

Jas: They are supposed to be performers. Their job is to have a hardon. My job is to look good and look aroused. There you go. I know how to do my job, they have to know how to do their job. I am not there to fluff.

Luke to Jas: Do you get jealous of Earl?

Jas: No. Work is work. The reason we kept everything hush-hush is because everyone tries to spread rumors in this business. I've already had three incidents… I don't like to deal with anyone. I am only here to make money. Do my dancing and mind my own business.

Bill: The Duane Thomas syndrome. [Referring to a Dallas Cowboy running back instrumental in the Cowboys 1972 victory who kept to himself.]

Jas: I just try to be the best at what I do. Growing up, I was a loner. I did not have many friends. My mom kept me home most of the time. I had a five PM curfew. I used to sneak out to go to concerts. One day she called me up at my friends' house. We were tripping on acid. It was my first time. We were in Central Park. And I saw the trees separate and the grass separate from the dirt. I called my mom from a pay phone. I saw the graffiti move and I started screaming. She came over to my friends' house to get me to go home but I wouldn't go.

Luke: Has Earl met your mother yet?

Jas: No.

Earl: She met mine.

Luke: And did you guys hit it off?

Jas: Yes. His mom is sweet.

Luke: Does she know you're in the biz?

Earl: When we were there, we were going out to a job, and she was mad that I wouldn't let her come watch. She really doesn't like it that I am in it, but as she can't stop me, she wants to witness a scene.

Jas: My mom doesn't like anyone I go out with… She'll be nice to him then she'll start getting all snappy and sarcastic. And he'll just be sarcastic right back.

Earl: I'll do to her what I do to you. I'll gag her, tie her up and throw her in the closet until she behaves. That's the only thing that works.

Luke: Do you guys play kinky games?

Earl: To be honest with you, we have a mild sex life. A couple of days a week, an hour at a time, sometimes less. To me, kink is show, pornography. It is not intimate.

When I go on a set, it is a job. I am f---ing a girl I don't want to f---, the way the director wants me to f--- her. It's nothing at all like me in my bedroom. There, we are making love, as opposed to f---ing for a camera.

Jas: On our first date, we went out to lunch. Then we went to a movie. We slept naked next to each but didn't have sex. The next night we had sex.

Jas does not want to get married or have kids until she is 40 or 50.

Earl says that one day he wants a son to carry on the legacy of his family name. "My father was an only child and I am an only child.

Luke to Jas: How is your mother handling your career?

Jas: She can go… Oh, never mind.

A few years ago, I got a letter in the mail from my cousin [Jas's mother's sister's daughter]. "I was shocked to learn of your acting career. Please do not ever write to me again. If you call here, do not ask to speak to me." It was dated Easter Sunday.

That's ok. She'll come to terms with what I do. If not, my male cousin will appreciate it more. He'll get free autographs for his friends. I think she is too close-minded [cousin]. She is still a virgin. She says in the letter, "I don't know how to tell your mother about this." I am going to send her a letter and an autograph [cousin] just to mess with her.

Earl: Send her a videotape of us having sex.

Jas laughs.

Jas's mother lives in NY. "She is supposed to come out here this weekend. I don't know what is going to happen. She will meet him. She puts all my guys through this bulls--- thing. He wouldn't stand for it.

Earl: I will take her sailing with me if she doesn't like me. I take two types of people sailing: My friends and my enemies. Only my friends come back.

Earl says he prefers to perform only with condoms but that he will abandon his condom-only policy if he can't get enough work.

5/6/98

Earl wants to make clear that he did not catch gonorrhea at the Shayla LaVeaux gangbang. He believes that he caught it a few days before. He just noticed the day after the gangbang that his dick was dripping, and he went in for a check up.

Jasmine St. Clair wants to add that she has nothing but respect for John T. Bone and Charlie Frey, and their anti-condom leanings.

Jasmine also wants to emphasize that she did not go in Jim South's office on Monday. She only went to the PAW office which is next door.

Earl wants to make it clear that he has never done anything gay. As he told me on Monday.

He did, however, in his first video in the industry play Zorro the Gay Blade in a video directed by Jane Waters, a man, for Devils' Films, entitled: Transexual Prostitutes #2. Lisa, Brandy and Geneva are on the box cover. They look like girls, but when you look at their private parts, you see that they are not. In fact, there really are no women in this movie at all. Production date is Feb. 28, 1997.

Earl did not take it up the ass in this film. Nor did he do anything gay.

Rather, with a condom, he f---ed a transvestite up the ass. And, he emphasizes, that everyone was tested before and after.

And this was his first movie, and he has never done anything like it before or since. He thought the object of his affection in this scene was a woman. This may seem hard to believe as the "women" in these scenes clearly possess penises.

Still, Earl does not consider buttf---ing a guy dressed as a girl to be gay.

Pat Riley: "He did two sex scenes in the movie, not one, and it's impossible not to see the "objects of his affection" were not female. The first takes place in a photographer's studio where Zorro (Earl) the photographer, and two other males gang bang Lisa Lawrence (not too pretty black she-male with curly red hair, too-muscular body, and medium cantaloupes). Lisa gets off a cum shot and the guys give her a sperm bath. The second is with Brandy Scott (a considerably more attractive blonde she-male) and takes place on the roof of a building at sunset.

"It ends artistically with Zorro/Earl silhouetted against the setting sun. I didn't note whether in this scene Brandy got off a cum shot but it's certainly possible as she has done so in others in the series.

"Buttf---ing a she-male is not gay? Sounds like the guys in prison: "I didn't really enjoy it so I'm not gay.""

7/2/98:

Jasmine St. Clair and her boyfriend Earl Slate enter the PAW office and take a PCR/DNA HIV test. Bad publicity about Earl (Tony Stearns) has killed his performing career. He says he has not worked for anyone in four months.

Earl turned to me, Bill Margold, Donna Stanton, and AVN for help with combating negative talk about him. My reporting on the matter has only made his problems worse.

Bill is not sympathetic today to Earl's complaints. "How can anybody defame the defamed [porno people]. This is a litter box kid. You can't be kicked out."

Earl: "I've been blackballed by the industry. If there was no such thing as bad publicity, I would be doing five to seven scenes a week as I did all last year. I haven't worked for four months."

Bill: "Are you starving?"

Earl: "Yeah, I'm borrowing money to survive right now."

Bill: "It will all blow over. Take your latest test to Las Vegas to the VSDA, and you'll get work."

Jasmine: "That's such a lame show."

Earl: "Charley Frey [Jasmine's former manager] sent a goon squad of four torpedoes into her club last week to collect money. I had to stand between them."

Jasmine: "I had my attorney send him a letter today."

Luke: "Thug collectors?"

Jasmine: "Right. And it was for money that was only due at the end of June. Then he wanted to charge me for the thug expenses on top of that. For their plane fare.

"Charley sent me to four clubs where I didn't get paid. He knew I wasn't going to get paid. He told the club owners to send him the check instead of me."

Earl tells me he does not mind my publishing his real name - Tony Stearns. I tell Earl that several women in the industry fear that he may become physically violent.

Earl vehemently denies these charges. He does admit that he did jail time for aggravated assault. He says that he was in a bar fight. A man broke a beer bottle over Earl's head. Earl went crazy and beat the man into a coma.

Earl/Tony: "I have never hit a woman in my life. If I was physically violent, Jackie Lick [who Earl blames for talking bad about him] would have two black eyes."

Extreme Brasil

XXX, a source in Brasil, writes: "Here's the scoop, now confirmed: Luciano AND Earl Slate [of Extreme Associates] f---ed the HIV-Pos girl w/o condom [in Brazil in January]. They took turns. Personally, I hope they both die. I don't f---ing care. [Both Earl and Luciano have tested HIV negative since.]"

Earl Slate says the "story is absolute bulls---. Everybody wore a condom for every scene. And we never had sex except for scenes. You just can't print hearsay Luke. You have no proof for this, it's just somebody pranking you."

Later Earl admitted that he might have had sex off camera, but he insisted that condoms were always used. But the "Extreme Brasil" videotape shows several sex scenes without condoms.

Earl: "I told Rob Black that we must shoot condom. I don't know who your source is Luke, but I highly suggest this rumor does not go anywhere because a lot of people could be several injured because of this. I've been tested for HIV every month for the last three years.

"Luke, don't even speculate about this on your website. Because..."

Kianna Bradley in the background: "It already is up there..."

Earl: "There's going to be a lot of lawsuits going on about something like that... I want the story taken off immediately. You can't print an allegation without having proof, especially when it can endanger a person's career. I don't need any kind of publicity like that because a lot of times people don't read what you wrote. They just see Luciano and Earl f---ed a girl in the ass without a rubber and came out positive.

"So I want you to take that off immediately. And I want you to put a retracting statement that says it was a mistake. The person who called, it was a prank call, and you know for a fact that everybody who was there wore a condom during every single sex act ever performed."

Luke: "Even off camera?"

Earl: "Even off camera.

"This is a very serious business Luke, and I've always been straight with you. This is a very severe allegation and it is not documented true. It's hearsay. Call Rob Black or Tom Byron or Van Damage who were there for everything that happened and everybody wore a condom for everything that happened."

Luke: The story is out there. Aside from my report, it has been talked about on PST and elsewhere. Let's deal with it. As Earl and Luciano have tested HIV negative since Brazil, the odds are microscopic that they may have been infected, especially as it is very difficult for a man to catch HIV from a woman.

XXX writes: "There's only ONE girl, tested HIV Pos at least one year BEFORE the filming. And listen: I told you they f---ED the HIV-Pos girl condomless, but I didn't say they GOT the virus from this f---. They could be lucky. Or maybe not. I don't give a s--- anyway. They [Luciano and Earl Slate] acted like morons, like big s---, and f---ed our AIDETIC girls condomless anyway. I don't care if they live or die."

XYZ: "I've seen the video, "Extreme Brazil" and it sure doesn't look like they are always using condoms. It's just those guys f---ing a bunch of whores. I wonder how they got them tested?"

Earl and Luciano both used needle injections into their dicks to maintain erections during the arduous Extreme Associates shoot in Brazil.

Kianna Bradley (Earl's ex-wife and current girlfriend) talks to Earl Slate. I can hear her say: "I need to talk to him. I need to tell him that this could really hurt my career."

Earl discourages her. "Are you typing right now Luke?"

Luke: "Yes, I am typing what you are saying."

Earl: "Hold on, Kianna wants to talk to you."

Kianna: "Luke. Listen. I don't know what is going on and I really don't want to know because it would probably freak me out. But this could really hurt my career."

Luke feels terrible as Earl and Kianna have always been decent and friendly to him.

Earl discourages Kianna from saying too much.

Kianna says to Earl: "I'm sorry but Luke is my friend. He called me just to make sure I was ok when we were broke up...and not to write anything on his site. People f---ing mislead him."

XYZ: "I've seen the Extreme Brasil tape and it sure doesn't look like Earl is wearing a condom. It's a lame tape. They're just f---ing a bunch of Brasilian whores. The tape stinks. Extreme thinks they're the s--- and they're just a bunch of f---ing idiots.

"A friend sent me the tape and he told me the same thing. It's just those guys f---ing a bunch of whores. And I'm really surprised. I wonder how they got them tested. You can see, man. There's a whole bunch of s--- going on that is condomless. And they show them going to a Brasilian porn store with Rob Black. And they all think they're tough guys. And they're looking at animal videos on the shelf. Oh, is this s--- legal? Blah, blah, blah. The whole tape was long and boring. And the girls aren't pretty and a couple of them look like they are f---ing disease ridden.

"Earl is an idiot to tell you that they did everything with condoms when the tape is for sale."

Jim Gunn writes: "Nice work Luke. I only saw that cover not the actual movie but I think I shot much better looking girls than they did on my last trip to Brazil."

Earl Slate Jailed For Spousal Abuse of Wife Kianna Bradley

Earl Slate (real name: Anthony Stearns) is in jail for beating up his wife Kianna Bradley, a Metro contract girl, on April 13th.

I called the Los Angeles Penal System (877-846-3452, inmate number 6427 - 729) and confirmed that Stearns is in jail.

Slate, 37 years old, will be arraigned April 20th at 5PM. Arraignment means that the porn star will be brought in to face a judge who will look at the charges, at a police description of the evidence, perhaps talk to Kianna Bradley, and then decide when or if Earl Slate aka Tony Stearns will face trial.

Kianna (KiannaBradley1@aol.com) could do with some support right now. She's trying to decide whether or not to press charges against Tony.

Bradley married Slate in Las Vegas on September 3rd, 1999. They've had a dramatic relationship with numerous breakups.

I talked to Kianna by telephone late Saturday night.

Kianna: "He's in [Los Angeles] Central Jail right now until he can post $50,000 bond. I don't think he is going to be able to. He's been trying since the 13th. He had three [outstanding] warrants against him and I don't know what they were for.

"This happened Thursday (April 13th). I got arrested to because he told them [police] that I hit him.

"I had gone down to [Earl's] the boat because I had some clothes there from long ago. I went to go get them and the door was locked. So I climbed through the window and I got my girlfriend to break the lock from the outside. To get my luggage out. I called him to let him know that I had got the stuff out...

"And I had some luggage of his which I had accidentally got. So I brought it back to him. And I had some other things which I had to get. And he tried to throw me off the boat. And I guess the neighbors saw and called the police. And [the Los Angeles County] Sheriffs came and by the time the Sheriffs came, he hit me in the face. He ripped my shirt. He threw me down below into the cabin. And he was drunk.

"Then the cops came. And they were like, 'Do you just want to let it go?' I said, 'No, I want to press charges against him.' Then they talked to him. Then they told me that in a spousal argument, they arrest both parties. He told them that I hit him.

"So I got arrested. Fine. The detective came in and talked to me. Then he talked to Tony. Then he said, 'We're going to let you go. He's completely lying about everything. I've checked his records. He's a liar.

"And they took pictures. I had bruises all over me."

Luke: "How are you doing now?"

Kianna: "I'm a little sore. I'm fine. We hadn't been together for a while [four days prior to the incident]. I figured that things had cooled down enough to where I could get my stuff. Apparently, someone was saying that we had gotten back together. That is not true.

"They put in a protection order for me. He's not allowed within 200 yards of me."

Luke: "When did you last see Stearns, before this incident?"

Kianna: "Four days before. I was visiting my girlfriend Leanna Hart... She's doing good. She's gained some weight and looks absolutely wonderful. She's trying to get her website started and her fiance is going to try to help her open her own production company.

"We saw Tony pass by. I think he was drunk. He comes up and says, 'Hey Leanna.' And I turned and ran. And he says to Leanna, 'Who's your friend?' And she says, 'Uuhhhh....' And I turned around and went, 'Hi.'

"Yes, I was stupid and probably did something I shouldn't have done [sex]. I spent time with him."

Luke: "Have you been spending time with him over the past month?"

Kianna: "Yeah. I saw him twice before that in the last month."

Luke: "Didn't you have your marriage to Tony annulled?"

Kianna: "No, we never got it annulled. We were going to get annulled, and then when we got back together. Gosh Luke, we broke up so many times I don't even remember.

"I don't know how to go about finding out what his other warrants were for...

"When you get arrested, they ask you if you have AIDS, if you have a veneral disease...etc. When they asked Tony, have you ever had a veneral disease, he said yes. Two weeks ago. But not now.

"So just to let the record show... People who have worked or slept with him, need to get checked.

"I was thinking, f---, I slept with him. How would I find out what veneral disease he had?"

Luke: "Call the detective assigned to the case."

Kianna: "It was very odd...because everybody always asks me, 'Does he beat you? Does he beat you? Does he beat you?' Remember, even I told you, no he doesn't. It was quite a shock.

"He went crazy the time I saw him the four days before that because I took a crack pipe away from him. He slammed me on the ground and choked me. And I still have the bruises on my neck and arms from that.

"And the cops found the [drug] paraphenalia on his boat...

"And from what I understand, he's been trying to borrow money from quite a few people. He had spent the money Odyssey had given him for two movies. And now another movie he's supposed to be doing for them. And I was trying to help him book it...

"He is far in debt. A friend told me that he had asked him for $15,000. Odyssey gives him $10,000 per movie."

Luke: "Why were you going back to him over the past few weeks?"

Kianna: "I don't know Luke... When they had the handcuffs on him, I started crying. Maybe I shouldn't be doing this. And the one cop looked at me and said, 'I think you need to. I think this will stop it for good. Because he's already been a convicted felon three times. And this is also a felony. I don't think he's going to be getting out anytime soon.'

"He's been in prison three times. This will be the fourth.

"I don't know what to do because this is like the end of his life. If I press charges, he goes to prison. In a way, he deserves it for what he did. But he's 37 years old. How much more of his life is going to be spent in prison? If I don't press charges, I could ruin someone else's life. If I do press charges, I could ruin his life. If I do press charges, I could maybe save his life from him stopping the drugs. It's a no-win situation. I don't know what to do.

Kianna: "He [Earl Slate] totalled his Mercedes at the end of March. He was drunk. He completely totalled hit. He called and asked me, because he only had liability insurance, if I knew anybody who could fix cars? He knew I did because my ex-boyfriend owns an auto-parts store... I had his car shipped to xxx to get it fixed.

"Then three days later, he called to tell me that he wrecked his Bronco. He hit somebody and he doesn't have insurance on the Bronco at all. And it is about $3500 worth of damage on their car.

"From what I understand, I don't even think he has a license [to drive].

"His mom says he opened up a credit card on her name and he charged thousands of dollars on it. And he didn't pay it. And she's getting TRW'd [a credit rating firm] for it.

"He's losing it bad. He doesn't have the money to make the movies for Odyssey that they already gave him... When I was looking through his papers, I saw an eviction notice for him..."

Luke: "I don't want you getting caught in this whirlpool going down."

Kianna: "I'm honestly thinking about getting out... This has been a lot for me in the past year. I don't think I've dealt with so much s--- in my life.

"Then I found out that he cheated on me with [porn stars] Kelsey Heart and Heaven Lee [not Heaven Leigh]. I had gotten Heaven jobs with Metro. She was dating Chris Cannon at the time, one of my best friends. And Kelsey was so nice to me whenever I saw her. And they knew what they did... I feel like a big idiot.

"He told me. I confronted them about it. They admitted it."

Luke: "It is one thing to work on camera. It is nothing to quietly have sex."

Kianna: "Even if he wanted to screw somebody off camera, that's fine. He's done a lot worse to me... But the point is, I look like an idiot. Hahaha... When he wrecked his car, why don't you call them to fix your car and borrow the money to fix your movie? He asked me to do scenes for him and I said, 'I'm not f---ing up with Metro to do scenes for you.' Call Kelsey and Heaven. They'll do free scenes for you.

"I called Heaven, who's living Alec Metro now. She works a lot for Al Borda... I said, 'You f---ed up because you f---ed my man. You f---ed up twice because you f---ed my man while you were dating one of my best friends.' And now you're seeing another one of my best friends...

"I feel kinda bad for him but I don't accept men beating on women who don't want to be beat on. Except during sex, hahahaha."

Kianna Bradley vs Earl Slate

Kianna Bradley and Earl Slate (Anthony Stearns) squared off in court Tuesday afternoon.

I talked Tuesday morning with Kianna via cell phone.

Kianna: "Yesterday they offered Earl a plea bargain but he wouldn't take it. So it's going to trial today. We're on our way.

"I think he's stupid. The detective was there and the cop who arrested him. The DA offered him a nice deal. Earl look better. He has that Fu Manchu [moustache] thing cut off. He brought his mom and his friend Duke. He was dressed nicely. The DA thought he was stupid."

Luke: "He claims that you forged $3000 in checks."

Kianna: "That was for his production for Odyssey while he was in jail. It was for talent and location..."

Luke: "Did you sign the name "Anthony Stearns" on them?"

Kianna: "Yeah."

Luke: "For a Norman Hammer."

Kianna: "That was the guy who got the location and talent."

Luke: "Have you been charged with battery in another state? Did that come up Monday?"

Kianna: "No, that never came up. It was simple assault, three years ago... I hear they are going to bring up a lot of s--- today."

Kianna's new boyfriend Lee Stone comes on the line.

Lee: "As far as the checks go, I'm bringing my Day Runner with me, because I keep track of when I do my scenes... And I have an exact date for when I worked for Kitty and Earl for which Kitty signed the check while Earl sat there doing nothing. I think Kianna has always been his production manager and has always had permission to sign his checks. Now, just because it is convenient for him he's going to cry wolf and say that she stole this money from him. It's as same as always. The man is a habitual compulsive liar."

I talked Monday night to "Frank," a source favorable to Earl Slate.

Frank: "We found out that she had a previous battery charge against her in another state. They [prosecutors] told Earl that they wanted to drop the charges down to disturbing the peace. And would he plead it out? And Earl said absolutely not. I didn't do anything wrong. And not only that, when I was in jail, she shipped my Mercedes off to another state. And forged $3000 worth of checks from my account.

"They might drop the case. I'm sure Slate will beat this thing and then he will file charges on her for the other stuff. On Thursday, all the witnesses are coming in.

"The Public Defender told Earl today that the judge in the trial thinks the whole thing is a joke. The detectives who arrested Earl have found out about her battery charges, etc... And the detective looked at Earl and said, 'Don't worry. We're going to work this thing out.' The detectives made a bad judgement call in letting Kianna go and arresting Earl. Bradley is a master manipulator.

"And she's got this other husband, Ryan, in Pontiac, Illinois. When Earl and Kianna first met, she said that divorce papers had been filed. But they have been.

"As soon as the heat gets off Earl's back, he will file grand theft charges, forgery and bigamy.

"I've learned a lot about Kianna and the reality is that she doesn't give a s--- about anybody but her drug habit."

Slate now shoots two ongoing series for Odyssey, Sleazy Riders (girls on Harley Davidsons) and Sea Sluts (8 editions on girls on Earl's boat). "It doesn't matter what others think of him, because Earl no longer needs to work for other directors. The girls in the industry who talk bad about Earl don't say s--- when he calls them, asking if they want to go to work. He's the one writing the checks. They all show up.

"Jasmin St. Claire says that Kianna called her and asked her to lie in court, and say that Earl beat Jasmin up. And Jasmin says no way. She won't do that.

"Earl is now drug free. The only time he did drugs was when he was with her. That's why he threw her out [off of his boat]. Then, after three or four days of partying when she ran out, she came and cut the locks of the boat. Then, when he caught her, and the cops showed up, she ripped her shirt and messed up her hair and started yelling 'Stop hitting me. Stop hitting me.' And they insisted that the cops arrest Earl. Then after we were in jail a little while, they let her go and kept Earl.

"Then, while Earl was in jail, she tried to forge $3000 (successful with $1800) in checks."

Luke: "She says they were for people who worked on your Odyssey movies."

Frank: "Absolutely not. Kianna is not authorized to sign on his account and has never done so, till now. She signed Anthony Stearns, which is forgery, even if Earl told her to. She wrote to Pac Bell and this guy Norman Hammer [locatin scout]. And to a black girl named Brandy who was doing drugs with her."

Luke: "Sending the Mercedes to Alabama. Doesn't Kitty have friends who work in car repair?"

Frank: "The car was in a wreck and she said, 'Oh, I'll send it to my family's bodyshop.' Earl had thrown her out two days previously, saying 'Don't call me unless you want to go to a rehab.' She said 'What about the car?' Earl said, 'Don't even touch the car. I don't want it to go to Alabama or I will never see it again.'

"And it was a day or two after Earl went to jail, and she knew he was getting out, that she shipped it to Alabama. She told the lady at Auto Relocators that it was her car and that she was authorized to ship it. Now the car is in Tennessee and they want $980 just to release it in Tennessee and then another $900 to get it back. And then Earl's got to pay to get it repaired. He's just going to say f--- it, and leave the car."

Luke: "Is Kianna still coming around Earl's boat?"

Frank: "As of Tuesday morning, there will be a restraining order against her not to come anywhere near me. It's hidden in a different marina. She keeps calling Earl, threatening him. Saying she's going to call the police and tell them that the boat is stolen, just so they will find it for her. About people that are coming to get me because she's upset that she has to go to court.

"And the sickest thing about it is that you will hear two or three threatening messages and then one in the middle of the night... Most of the messages come in at two, three, four, five o'clock in the morning, when normal people aren't awake. There will be one 'I love you, I love you, I miss you.' Then back to the threatening ones.

"If it was up to me, she would fly out of this town tomorrow. Everywhere she goes, she goes there for a while, f---ing burns out everybody, owes everybody money and leaves town. I hope that will happen here.

"This is trial isn't even about her. It's about Earl. But she's hired this private attorney because she's scared that she's going to do something to her about forging the checks and shipping the car. She's not paying the attorney. She must be f---ing him.

"It's bad enough that she had Earl thrown in jail for a week-and-a-half... Stealing his money, throwing Earl's clothes off the boat. Planning to move into the boat... Moving into Earl's life and taking over. She better wake up and get into a detox before someone finds her overdosed and lying in the gutter."

Bianca Trump writes: Luke doesnt this remind you of the exact same story i told you about Kianna in FL? Well it is......Can I now say I said so. Same girl, different guy. But no one wanted to believe me when I said she was already married and owes everyone here money and ran a friend of mine to jail and took over his house and stole his stuff. What was it again that Earl called me? A bitch? Whore? Something like that. Just to show there are no hard feelings, tell him if he needs any FL info about all her arrests here to drop me an email.

Kianna Bradley - Earl Slate Update

Earl Slate's trial has been delayed for three months.

Kianna phoned at 3:45PM Tuesday: "Today was horrible. I broke down because he wouldn't accept the second plea bargain [offer]. I start crying and he starts laughing. And so at 1:30 PM, they were supposed to start the trial. We get back and [find out that] the DA had postponed it until September 4th. They said, 'We're going to give them enough rope to hang themselves.'

"He's making all these allegations. Phylisha Anne and Chris Cannon came in and said, 'He has given her permission to sign those checks in front of us. And there are a lot of other people, other talent, that she has hired for his movie, that will verify that.' And the detective basically said, 'They were married. He gave her permission. She was his production manager. Case closed. There's nothing else he can do.'

"The checks were not written out to me. But they were for production.

"I've got a permanent stay away order against him. And he just thought it was f---ing hilarious. And he was never in prison. He was in jail. And not for assault. But for his outstanding drunk driving warrants.

"They told him. You've got all these allegations against her. Prove them. The Mercedes? People already called the DA and said he was the one who gave us the order to ship it. And the company where the car was stored at, said that he'd come in to give them a check and said that this company was coming to pick up his car. So he's f---ed on that. And he's calling my ex-husband. Do you want me to threeway him right now?"

Luke: "Yeah."

Kianna: "Hey Ryan, I've got Luke on the phone."

Luke: "How come you guys are still married?"

Ryan: "How come? What do you mean how come we're still married?"

Luke: "I thought a couple of years ago you guys were going to get divorced?"

Ryan: "We were planning on it but I never turned in the papers."

Luke: "So what do you think of this big mess that Kianna is in right now?"

Ryan: "I think the guy is a cocksucker, that's what I think... For a grown man to act like a little sissy like that..."

Luke: "How long have you known Kianna?"

Ryan: "About four or five years."

Luke: "And is she a truthfull person?"

Ryan: "Huh hmmm."

Luke: "How would you describe her personality and character to people who don't know her?"

Ryan: "Beautiful and wild."

They laugh.

Kianna: "You've got to remember Luke that I am the mother of his daughter, so he's got to talk good about me."

Luke: "How do you feel about your wife appearing in porn movies?"

Ryan: "At first it bothered me but hey, when I met her, that's what she did. I can't change her. If that's what you want to do for a career, you go after it."

Luke: "What did you think when you found out that she'd married Earl?"

Ryan: "It surprised me but didn't surprise me. She cared about the guy. She loved him."

Kianna: "And he's never seen me like this before."

Ryan: "She don't act the way she's acting now. She's a lot stronger person. I don't know what this guy did to her. He's made her weak. He's broke her down somehow because she don't act this way."

Luke: "Would you like to see her get out of the sex industry?"

Ryan: "Yeah, I would. There are two other things that go on in that industry that I'd like to see her get away from."

Luke: "Drugs?"

Ryan: "Well, I wouldn't, uhhh... That is not for me to say."

Kianna: "You can go ahead and say."

Ryan: "Yeah, that and everything."

Kianna: "Luke's a friend of mine, Ryan. You can tell him how you feel. You can tell him that you want to kill Earl."

Luke: "What's the other thing? Drugs and?"

Ryan: "Drugs and the sex!"

Luke: "But she can still listen to rock n'roll."

Ryan: "I don't know. I just don't... I don't know. California's changed her."

Luke: "In what ways?"

Ryan: "I don't know."

Kianna: "I used to be strong and independent."

Ryan: "Yeah, it's like she's not in control of herself. Everybody else is controlling what she does. She don't control her life anymore."

Ryan talks to their 18-month daughter Alessandra.

Kianna: "Tell him about the bars we used to go into."

Ryan: "We were like tag team partners. We'd walk into a club and the first thing security would say is, 'Hi, how are you doing? Please don't fight in here tonight. Allright?'"

Luke: "You guys used to get into a lot of fights?"

Ryan: "We used to go in and I'd fight the guy and she'd fight his girlfriend just for being there."

Kianna: "Ryan used to be one of the bouncers in the club. And he'd throw the guys out and the girls would try to jump him. Because he was throwing their boyfriend out... So I would have to stop the girls."

They laugh.

Luke: "How did you learn how to fight, Kianna?"

They laugh.

Ryan: "Lots of practice."

Luke: "You're just a little thing. How did you get into fighting?"

Kianna: "I'm little but..."

Ryan: "Let me tell you, she can throw."

Kianna: "Ryan's seen me."

Luke: "She can throw what?"

Ryan: "She can throw down. I've seen her brawl a few times."

Kianna: "Tell him about when the DJ stopped the club."

Ryan: "She don't bitch slap you. She beats your ass.

"You're not going to write this in anything, right?"

Luke: "I wanted to."

Ryan: "All this?"

Kianna: "He can."

Ryan: "But he could use this against you?

"We were in this club in Alabama."

Kianna: "Because she scratched me and my girlfriend tried to defend me."

Ryan: "Then the girl pushed her in the forehead. Well Kitty was standing on the stage and this girl was sitting in a hightop chair. Well, Kitty grabbed the girl by the back of the head. And Kitty was wearing combat boots. And was kicking the girl in the head, right square in the face. Bam, bam. The DJ comes over with his microphone and says, 'Kianna, you don't have to kick her in the face.' She goes, all right, pulls her head back and starts punching her in the face."

We all laugh.

Kianna: "Oh my God, those were the days."

Ryan: "I'm telling you. See what you're missing?"

Luke: "Do you do that any more Kianna?"

Kianna: "I haven't in a long time."

Ryan: "You need to come hang out with me some more."

Kianna: "That's what Earl's trying to bring up. My bar fight in South Carolina over Ryan."

Ryan: "That's what people do there. It's redneck city. Everybody fights everybody."

Kianna: "That's how you earn respect there."

Ryan: "You get your respect that way out there. It's not like most places. If somebody f---s with you, you've got to teach 'em or you don't get respect."

Kianna: "It's very different."

Ryan: "Her and I had a name in that town."

Kianna: "Not to mention other things."

Luke: "What was your name?"

Kianna: "Nobody messed with us."

Ryan: "I'm going to take her [Alessandra] out here and get her dinner. I will still be on here..."

Kianna: "When we met, I was featuring in South Carolina."

Ryan: "You wouldn't believe that woman was shy. You should've seen her. It was great. She was shaking when I went to talk to her."

Kianna: "You don't understand. This man was 5'9", 250 pounds, solid rock. And just a body that would not stop. And he had big baggy clothes on. He was shy too. He never showed off and I liked that.

"All the [male] strippers were always trying to f--- me and I never paid attention to those guys because they repulsed me. The strippers, the owners of clubs, the managers... I only dated one guy in South Carolina aside from Ryan."

Ryan: "240. Come on.

"Before I even met her, she was coming in to feature. They were going, ohmigod, this girl is coming in to work here and showing me her slicks. And she walked in the door, I checked her ID."

Kianna giggles: "I was pissed."

Luke: "He was the bouncer?"

Kianna: "Yes."

Ryan: "She looked at me like, you don't know who I am? I still had to see her ID."

Luke: "Kianna, you were already a porn star?"

Kianna: "I had done the Randy West, Joey Silvera, Babewatch and the Philmore Butts. And I had done hundreds of magazines."

Luke: "Ryan, did Kianna work as a prostitute?"

Ryan: "What? Hell no. Not that I know of. She better not have."

Kianna: "You don't understand Luke. I would not f--- anybody."

Ryan: "What happened?"

Laughs.

Kianna: "All the guys would always check me out... How Ryan and I ended up together... His friends set us up to see if he could f--- me."

Ryan: "And I wouldn't, would I?"

Kianna: "No."

Luke: "Why not?"

Ryan: "I had more respect for her than just to take her home and f--- her."

Kianna: "Although I wanted to."

Ryan: "Oh yeah. Trust me."

Kianna: "He's gorgeous."

Ryan: "Are you gorgeous?"

Ryan: "No. I might've been at one time."

Luke: "How many women have you had sex with in your life, Ryan?"

Ryan: "About ten."

Luke: "What was the key to your relationship with Kianna?"

Ryan: "We were just alike. In every way. I could be sitting in a club and she'd know exactly where I was standing, even if I was clear across the room. And she'd know exactly where I was standing at... We always looked out for each other."

Kianna: "I got into a fight with a guy, because he was picking on a little guy."

Ryan: "This kid dropped a quarter and this other guy picked it up. And the kid was like, give me my quarter back. And this guy was tall, she had to jump to hit him. Well, she's like, give the guy his quarter back. He wouldn't do it. And the next thing I know, there's goes his hat flying off his head, because she smacked him in the mouth."

Kianna: "And then Ryan came. And everybody said, you better run. It was a closed bar. A key bar. You had to have a key to get in."

Ryan: "I commenced bouncing him off every wall in there."

Kianna giggles: "Everybody said, oh s---, here comes Ryan.

"Ryan left Earl a message and Earl got really upset about it.

"I was upset because we [Earl and Kianna] were having problems. And Ryan was like, girl, you never act this way. I've never been to where I would let a man get to me or hurt me. Or hurt my feelings or anything.

"So, Ryan called me and I was crying. And he was tired of it. And he called Earl and goes, 'I hate to tell you, but she's still my wife. And you're breaking her heart. And I know she cares about you. I don't f---ing know why. But if you f--- with her again, I'm coming down there. It will take me six hours and I am going to kick you in your pussy."

Laughter.

Ryan: "I remember you telling me to say bye to him, so I said 'Bye sweetie.'"

Kianna: "Earl goes, why did he say he was going to kick me in my pussy?' I don't know. I guess he thinks you have a pussy."

Ryan: "He acts like one."

Luke: "How many fights did you guys get into?"

Ryan: "Dude, I've been fighting for ten years. So... We got in plenty."

Kianna: "Enough."

Luke: "Did you guys ever fight each other?"

Ryan: "No. We'd bitch at each other..."

Kianna: "Ryan would never hit a woman.

"He is the one man I can say who unconditionally loves me. And I kick myself in the ass everytime because I tell myself... And all my friends even see it too. Phyllisha Anne even said to me today, Ryan really loves you. No matter what, he's always there for you. And I know this. He's the only man who's ever really loved me."

Ryan: "And I still do. And we were lovers too... We had great sex."

Kianna: "We did. And he knew that I cared about Earl. It bothered him but he knew that was what I wanted. But he couldn't stand seeing me sunk down like this."

Ryan: "You've always been the first person to say 'f--- you' to anybody. And now it's like, she calls me up and she's all whipped. I've never seen her like that. I guess he just broke her down to the point where he made her feel like she had to depend on him."

Kianna: "And the heroin thing."

Ryan: "Oh, I went off... When I found out that he gave her that s---, I went off. I don't think he remembers the conversation because he was so whacked out on the s---."3

Kianna: "He shot me up with heroin."

Ryan: "What kind of person does that to somebody? I mean, you weren't tied up?"

Kianna: "No. Not at all. It was my free will. I said, like a dumb ass, if you're going to do it, if you're going to kill yourself, then kill me too. Then he finally shot me up. And I was looking at the needle because Ryan knows how terrified I am of needles. I was like, I can't believe he's doing this but I can't back down now."

Luke: "When was this?"

Kianna: "A week before he died?"

In December, Earl Slate died of a heroin overdose, according to Kianna, but was resuscitated by paramedics and brought back to life.

Kianna: "It was the day Phyllisha came to the door and found him with a needle."

Ryan: "Didn't she find a s---load of needles in there?"

Kianna: "After he f---ing OD'd, his mom cleaned out my room [at Phyllisha Anne's house] and found 15 needles filled with heroin. His mom dumped them in the sink. Then found a bunch of already used needles. In my room, he hid this s---.

"When they pronounced him dead, Luke, the police came because it was a crime scene. But then they brought him back and so it wasn't a crime scene no more. But they wanted to search his room. And I wanted to go to the hospital so they did not search my room.

"His mom came back. And she said, what was he on? I said, he was fine when I went to bed. He was just drunk. Because I've never seen anybody on heroin.

"We start cleaning my room and she's finding needles left and right. And I was tripping. She was like, what is this? He had a lot of needles. I thought it was for his injections."

Luke: "What injections?"

Kianna: "In his dick. Because those were the same needles."

Ryan: "Injections in his what?"

Kianna: "In his dick."

Ryan: "His what? Why?"

Kianna: "Luke."

Luke: "So he could get hard. Ryan, you don't like to shoot up your penis before you have sex?"

Ryan: "With her, I never had to."

Luke: "But with other women, you had to?"

Kianna: "No, he doesn't have to shoot up his dick. He's never even heard of it."

Ryan: "I don't know what you're talking about."

Luke: "Ryan, you ought to try it sometime. Don't knock it until you've tried it."

Ryan: "How is it? Good?"

Luke: "That's what I hear."

Kianna: "Ryan, I will beat your ass."

Ryan: "Have you done it, Luke?"

Luke: "No, but I've heard of it."

Ryan: "No? Well, let me know when you try it and maybe I'll try it."

Kianna: "Now, if you two men actually meet and shoot up your dicks to f--- a chick..."

Ryan: "What's the point? Does it last longer?"

Kianna: "No. He does it, Ryan, because he can't get hard."

Ryan: "Why?"

Kianna: "He says steroids."

Ryan: "Oh whatever. I did them too. And mine works just fine."

Luke: "Yeah, but did they diminish the size of your nutsack."

Ryan: "It comes back."

Kianna: "It takes away from your nuts but it doesn't do anything to your dick but make it bigger. Earl says because of steroids and all but every guy I've ever dated basically has been a body builder and has done steroids. And none of them have had a problem with getting their dick hard."

Ryan: "I could walk through the grocery store and shop for tomatoes and my dick would get hard."

Kianna: "I've never seen a guy who uses steroids have a problem with getting his dick hard. It's always the other way around. They've always gotten their dick hard when it wasn't needed to get hard."

Ryan: "But I am going to have to try that out, just to see what it is like."

Kianna: "No, no, no... You're not f---ing going down that Earl Slate road. You are the father of my daughter. I do have some control."

Luke: "Was it just the once that he injected you with heroin?"

Kianna: "Yes. Ryan got on the phone with him when he did it and f---ing went off."

Ryan: "I was sitting there talking to her on the phone and she goes, hang on a minute. Then she got back on the phone and I was going Kitty. And she was going bleh, bleh, bleh. And I said, 'What the hell are you doing? What's wrong with you?' She couldn't even talk. I said, what are you doing? And she said, heroin. And I said, 'Put that motherf---er on the phone.'"

Kianna: "And that was the first time I had ever done it. I told Ryan, he's killing himself. And Ryan goes, so you wanted him to kill you too? And I said, I wanted to see what was making him like it so much. I wanted to know. I've never done it before. I wanted to know what the big attraction was. What the big romance was."

Luke: "What a story."

Ryan: "You've got a helluva column, huh?"

Kianna: "I have a script, man. It's f---ing unbelievable. Put Alessandra on the phone and let her say hi to Luke."

Ryan: "All right. You want to talk to momma?"

Kianna: "Alessandra, say momma! Momma!"

Alessandra: "Momma."

Kianna: "Say momma. Momma. Alessandra."

Luke: "Alessandra."

Kianna: "Alessandra, say hi. Say hi baby."

Alessandra gurgles:. "Oh no."

Kianna: "She's a doll."

Ryan: "She looks just like her mom."

Kianna: "You should've seen her birthday."

Ryan: "I had her party catered."

Kianna: "She got a car and a Lazy Boy. Harley Davidson outfits."

Ryan: "She's going to ride with her daddy."

Luke: "Didn't Earl have a guy show up with him today?"

Kianna: "Duke. I think he sells condoms."

Luke: "Duke aka Sydney Glassberg? The old guy who is bent over?"

Kianna laughs.

Ryan: "He's a rump ranger?"

Kianna: "Probably, if he is hanging out with Earl."

Ryan: "He's a Rump Ranger on Butt Patrol."

Kianna: "Earl did a transvestite movie, Ryan."

Ryan: "Oh man, I can not wait to look this guy in the eye."

Kianna: "Tell him Luke what he was called. Zorro the Gay Blade."

Ryan: "What a fag."

Kianna's in hysterics.

Ryan: "I can't wait to look him in the face."

Luke: "Ryan, how do you feel about homosexuality?"

Ryan: "It's not for me."

Luke: "Have you ever been tempted?"

Ryan: "To sleep with another man? No."

Kianna: "When you had me..."

Luke: "You weren't saying, oh, I wish I could've had Fred over there?"

Ryan: "What?"

I hear a crying baby.

Luke: "That was only meant with tongue totally in cheek."

Ryan: "What did the comedian say. 'I've never looked at another man's hairy ass and said, 'I'm not leaving until I get some of that.''"

Kianna: "I think that's what Earl was saying as the balls were swinging against his."

Ryan: "Shut up, I don't even want to hear about that s---."

Kianna: "Ryan, remember when you said you were going to come kick him in the pussy."

Ryan: "I am going to look at him and say, 'Hey Zorro.' Put on your dress."

Kianna: "You know, I could tell you a story Luke, but I don't know if I want to say it in front of Ryan.

"You guys should know that I am not into two guys and one girl. I'm more into two girls and one guy. I love women as much as I love men. But I don't like being dominated by the two guys rather than the two women. So, I used to bring home women all the time and Earl kept thinking for some reason he had to repay me. And get me another guy."

Ryan: "But really, he wasn't wanting the other one for you."

Kianna: "Exactly. That's what I wanted to tell you."

Ryan: "He wanted it in the old A-N-A-L Canal."

Kianna: "He gets me a guy. We're f---ed up on coke one night. And he has his friend come over who has the smallest dick I've ever seen in my whole entire life."

Ryan: "Did he look at you and say, I don't want to hurt you?"

Kianna: "So they blindfolded me. And I'm lying down. And Earl starts f---ing me. And the guy is eating my pussy but not really eating my pussy."

Luke: "Ohhh."

Kianna: "I'm feeling something and I'm hearing Earl go, how does it feel? Is he eating your pussy good? And I'm going, I don't feel no tongue. And I take the blindfold off and there you have it. I guess he gave a better blowjob than I did."

Ryan: "Woman, what is up? That is f---ing sick."

Kianna: "I was in love."

Luke: "Ryan didn't bring other guys home?"

Kianna: "Hell no. If another guy even looked at me, he was gone."

Ryan: "I was a little protective of her."

Luke: "You didn't like another guy licking her vaginally while you were penetrating her?"

Ryan: "While he was licking my sack? No."

Kianna: "With Ryan, nobody would ever disrespect me. Or look at me twice. You see, the way it is in South Carolina, if somebody wanted to pay me a compliment, they would go to Ryan and pay him the compliment towards me."

Ryan: "Or ask if it was ok to compliment me. Total respect. Ryan has a lot of respect. And girls, with me, if they wanted to talk to Ryan, would come to me and ask if it was all right... The one girl that did not do that, I warned three times. That's the one Earl's bringing up. The one I ended up going to jail over.

"The cops called me, 'Kianna Bradley, can you come turn yourself in.' And I said, 'Today is not a good day. Can I come tomorrow?'"

Ryan: "When she walked into the police station, she had all the cops rolling laughing."

Kianna: "I told the girl three times, he's my man. Leave him alone. I don't want to have to hurt you. But she kept calling and calling and calling him..."

Ryan: "She left a message on my machine. If you're going to keep a pet, keep it on a leash."

Kianna: "The next time I saw her in a car, I walked up to her and said, bitch, I left my leash at home."

Ryan: "That was your bachelorette party."

Kianna: "I was drunk."

Ryan: "You have to understand the girls she hung out with. Nobody would say anything and the girls would say, that girl over there called you a bitch. Just so she'd go over there."

Kianna: "They liked to see me fight. They thought it was cute. Because all these girls were big and bad and I was so little. And when I'd approach them, I'd be nice about it. I would always talk civil. People would f--- with me. A girl would go, who did you have to f--- to buy your tits? And I didn't even know the people.

"And I'd go up to them and go, that wasn't very nice. And I told my friends that I wouldn't fight in their club so I will have to get you when you get outside. They didn't believe me until I walked behind them when they left the club. I told you I had to get you when you got outside."

Ryan: "She followed a girl down the stairs, grabbed her by the back of her hair and bounced her face off the plexiglass door."

Kianna laughs. "Then the bouncer looked at me and said, Kianna, I told you to wait until you got outside. I said, I was close.

"This other girl kept f---ing with me. I told her you're young, that's why you're dumb. I understand that. But you need to quit messing with my man.

"She hid from me for two months. Then I saw her outside this club. And I said, bitch, I left my leash at home. Then I grabbed her by the throat and slammed her to the tables. And got on top of her. Got pulled off. She ran to the cops... I didn't beat her up that bad."

Ryan: "She wasn't marked up."

Kianna: "I just got my point across."

Ryan: "You sit here and hear all these stories and you wonder why we are not together. It took me a year after she was gone before I could sleep with another girl."

Kianna: "Ryan loves me more than any kind of love that I will ever experience from a man. And I doing the porn industry, wanting my career for some f---ed up reason, wanting this in my life, meeting Earl and falling in love with him, blah, blah, blah... Everything I was doing was not fair to Ryan. For someone to love me like that and for me not giving it back to him was very unfair to him. That's why we are not together."

Ryan: "Well, you are the first to hear that because... Thank you for saying that because you've never said that before."

Kianna: "But that's what I tell everybody. It's not fair for you to love somebody that much and for you to not be treated as you should be treated. I learned that from experience with Earl. I guess it taught me a lot. It was me seeing myself in Ryan. It was me being Ryan and Earl being me, except a lot worse."

Donedone@aol.com: Luke- Glad to know that there are tough guys like Earl Slate still hanging around. You gotta like a guy who beats his wife. Thats tough. She probably deserved it anyway. Oh by the way, did I mention that he f---ed another man in the ass. Here's some haiku.

Homosexual tendencies
And wife beating
Tough guy

Earl Slate spent the last few months of the year 2000 in jail for beating Kianna Bradley. He was released in February, 2001.

So here's a coincidence. A short time back we had one of our drivers make a sales call at a local mom and pop lingerie/porn/head shop in Venice. After doing business with the post-op tranny store manager, our driver was getting into his car when he noticed a guy standing outside the store. He appeared to be peeing. Well, when he turned around the driver could see that he had put on a mask and was about to rob the smut peddler. He hopped in the car, called 911, and then watched as the robber ran off to his jeep and hop in for the quick getaway. Good citizen driver led to the arrest of the felon later that night, after a mild chase by police in Marina Del Rey.

 

Cut to June 7th, today, preliminary hearing and the driver is now called as a witness in the case. The ironic part you ask? Ironic part is that the defendant is named Anthony Stearns....aka....Earl Slate. He is now the Robin Hood of porn. Knowing that the talent is the least compensated of all involved in this biz, he's taking a piece back for the cause....or at least trying. For more details....do some digging.

Earl gets out in 2011.

Earl Slate wrote a book: "So you want to be a Porn Star? A Guide to the Adult Video Industry."

I'm emailed that "it's actually pretty good from an amateur's point of view."

Earl was unable to publish his magnum opus.

He resides in prison for armed robbery. He'll be there another five years. "He is surviving the best he can," says a source, "which isn't easy when you are in such a demeaning atmosphere on a daily basis. He has become quite a good guitar player though and he is clean and sober and keeping his body in shape."

I had a long email discussion with Earl's future bride. She writes:

Earl Slate/Tony is old news now. He would like to forget about that part of his life. I talked to Tony last night but I didn't inform him that I had been emailing you. I did tell him that I had read a column online that you had done about Kianna and him from years ago.And as always he reminds me that that is his past and he would like to keep it that way. Besides aren't you into gossip? Not exactly writing true stories? And I am sure there aren't a lot of Earl Slate fans left out there. It's been a lot of years and porn stars come and go. I am sure you can do what you choose to do, but if you do, please get it correct! The porn industry, along with VERY bad choices ruined this mans' life and he is a good man.

>I've always done my best to write the truth.

If you do tell his story on your website, please don't make him sound like a bad man because he really isn't. Like I said, he made some bad choices. That oesn't mean he should be condemned for life.

>I'm a journalist. I rarely classify people as good or bad.

A journalist usually makes sure that his facts are straight before publishing them, and he just doesn't print everything, everyone says to him. And you might not classify them as good or bad in your columns, but I am sure you have your own opinion of them. I don't know what type of a story you think Tony has. You pretty much have it. I am the hope in his life now and we plan to be married in July. Then we just exist as best we can until he gets out.

>Wow. Marriage. How long have you known Tony? Why are you marrying him? How often do you get to see him? What do you think about porn?

What do I think about porn? Well it's a job. I guess someone has to do it! And in our world sex sells, so its BIG money. I have known Tony for a while now, and I am marrying him because we are good for each other. We love each other and bring out the best in each other. I am his "rock" and he needs that in his life, especially now. I get to see him twice a month.

>Do you get to have sex with him? What's it like?

No sex, just visits in the inmate visiting room. And going into a prison is not a fun experience. You don't get the longer family visits until after you are married. And that is about every 90 days.

>Was it through my blog that you fell in love with Tony? If not, how did you get to know him? Did you know him before he went inside?

I knew Tony long before I ever knew who you were. And not sure what blog you are talking about. I met him since he has been in prison. I met him while doing outreach work for a local church.

>Oh my, you are a born-again Christian?

No I just like to offer my help. I don't get carried away.

>Do you go to church every week? Has Tony accepted Jesus Christ as his lord and savior?

You don't have to go to church to believe in God. And Tony has an AA degree in Theology, so I know that he has studied about God. And I know that he prays but that doesn't mean that we are "Bible thumpers" in any way. We both have very open minds about life and we believe the God listens to everyone and is not judgmental. How about you? Have you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour?

> Tony and I were alwasy friendly.

Well its amazing how I get two different stories. I think mainly that Tony right now is extremely bitter. Because of the drug/alcohol abuse in the porn industry, and his ex (with your help/posting things without facts) cost him a lot of work, and that is what led to his downfall. Granted it was his choice to do what he did, but it was an all around thing. So he doesn't have fond memories of the porn world. And I think right now, to him YOU totally represent that world. Maybe someday you two can be friendly again, but its not going to happen now.

A Chat With Earl's Fiance

Earl's (Tony Stearns) not scheduled to get out of prison until 2011 (there'll be no good behavior time off for the guy who's turning 43) but he's already got a fiance -- a 52yo grandmother.

I talk to her by phone Wednesday afternoon.

Luke: "Have you had a relationship with a man in prison before?"

Crissy: "No. This is not the best. This is hard."

Luke: "Why do it?"

Crissy: "Because I care about him."

Luke: "There are a lot of people you could care about."

Crissy: "He doesn't have a lot of people."

Luke: "But what's in it for you?"

Crissy: "Practically nothing. I'm just a giving person. It's always been that way. Maybe I give too much of myself."

I keep cracking up.

Crissy: "What?"

Luke: "Women who develop relationships with men in jail, it's fascinating."

Crissy: "It would be different if he were serving a life sentence. Those women are really stupid."

I'm overwhelmed by my laughter.

Crissy: "It's not a funny situation. I've seen all those 20/20 things. Geez, they go after the ones in for murder. Do they think that's going to be a fun life? It's not.

"It's not only demeaning to the person in there, it's demeaning to the person who comes to see them too."

Luke: "How did you fall in love with him?"

Crissy: "He's gorgeous and he's funny."

Luke: "And you haven't had sex with him yet?"

Crissy: "No. We're not allowed to do that. You have to be married. Then you have to sign up for family visits. They're supposed to be every 90 days."

Luke: "When are you getting married?"

Crissy: "We're not sure. We set our sights on July [2005]. Then January [2006]. I keep moving it back."

I sigh.

Crissy: "Is that bad? I want to make sure that this is something I want to do."

Luke: "How do your friends and family feel about this?"

Crissy: "They're fine with it. Whatever makes me happy. If he can make me happy... Obviously he can only make me so happy being where he's at."

Luke: "They're just fine with you marrying a guy who will be in jail for the next five years."

Crissy: "Yeah."

Luke: "How do your parents feel?"

Crissy: "They're not thrilled about it."

Luke: "'We've always dreamed you would marry someone in prison.'"

Crissy: "They think I need somebody who is actually here with me. They're from the old school. They're 79 years old and in July they'll celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary."

Luke: "Do you have a weakness for bad boys?"

Crissy: "Ohmigod, you read it, didn't you? Yes, I do."

Luke: "What kind of bad boys have you been with? Men who beat you?"

Crissy: "I had one of those. Or alcoholics. Or drug addicts. You think you can help people. You think you can save people. I've learned you can't change anybody."

Luke: "Have you ever been to Alanon?"

Crissy: "I've never had anybody who's had enough guts to try to straighten up their life to go to AA or NA. It's not going to help me to go to try to understand them. I understood them perfectly fine. That's the problem. And they didn't want to correct it.

"I'm not attracted to bad boys anymore. I've been on my own for six years. I'm not going to have a guy tell me what I can and can not do or who I can see or where I can go.

"Tony and I come from two different worlds. He was the bad boy growing up. I was the good girl growing up. I've been married. I've had kids. He's never had any of that. You've never had any of that.

"He's accepted the kids. She's started playing the guitar. They have that in common.

"You've been around the people in porn. They're out for themselves. That's all they want to care about. That's all they want to think about. It's what's good for me, me, me."

Luke: "So why would you want to get yourself caught up in that?"

Crissy: "Why did you?"

I give a pained laugh.

Crissy: "You got more benefits out of it than I am going to get."

Luke: "I just write about them. I'm like a scientist who pokes insects in a cage and sees how they react. The people I write about are not in my real life."

Crissy: "But some of them are. I never knew they were arrogant and self-centered."

Luke: "You have to be screwed up to be in porn. It's a requirement. It's so self-destructive."

Crissy: "Tony practically raised himself. I had strict parents."

Luke: "You guys have so much in common."

Crissy: "It's like night and day.

"No, we don't have a whole lot in common. He said that on our last visit. I said, 'That's right. That's why we're not jumping in to something that's not good for the both of us."

Luke: "What about dating men in the regular world?"

Crissy sighs. "Oh God, dating is hell.

"They've been ready for me than I was ready for. They would fall in love faster."

Luke: "Men fall in love quicker because they are more superficial."

Crissy: "I would've have guessed that."

Luke: "You should read, Love Sick: Love as a Mental Illness."

Crissy: "You have dark hair and hazel eyes. That should get you a lot of women. That's rare. You have bedroom eyes."

Luke: "I'm good at meeting women, just not at sustaining a relationship."

Crissy: "If I wanted to be a naughty girl, I could just think about how great the sex was going to be with a former porn star."
