:::  Naughty Fireman Update! :::

[Sacramento Fire Department, Station #20, July 2004]

Some of you may have heard about the naughty firemen in Sacramento.  In case you missed this "smoldering controversy", earlier this month, seven Sacramento firemen attended an event called the "Porn Star Ball" at a local Raddison Hotel.  The idea was for guests to dress up as porn stars (whatever that means) and mingle with adult performers.  Don't ask me who the porn stars in attendance were, but 1800 people went to this party.

Apparently, six of the firemen (from Station #20) were on duty (in full uniform) and the seventh was not.  According to the Sacramento Bee, an investigation has determined that three fire department vehicles, including an engine and ambulance were indeed away from the station for two hours that night.  Some of the firefighters were alleged to be posing for pictures by the trucks (presumable with scantily clad women).  One woman in attendance alleged an on duty fireman sexually assaulted her in the parking lot in a "grass fire rig".  However, the Sacramento District Attorney's office subsequently decided there was not enough evidence to prosecute. 

Now, in response to public outrage, the City Manager has not created an internal affairs unit for the Fire Department and Julius Cherry, the Fire Department Chief has fired two of the fireman and suspended three others.  It appears that the Porn Star Ball incident is just the tip of the iceberg.  The Bee reports that the investigation found that "firefighters from several stations routinely cruised bars and dance clubs, drank on duty and picked up women and gave them rides on fire vehicles." 

The Sacramento Fire Department website is strangely silent on these issues.

P.S. -- For the record, the "Porn Star Ball" is not a big industry event.  I never even heard of it until news of this scandal broke.  I think this may have been the first one.

Taiwanese Girl #1: So I want to buy some boobs.

Me: Huh? In Okinawa? How are you going to do that if you're only here until tomorrow?

Taiwanese Girl #1: Oh no, you don't understand. Haven't you seen them? All the stores in Naha seem to be selling boobs.

Me: What?

Taiwanese Girl #1: Well, they aren't real boobs. They're like those stress balls but in the shape of a breast.

Me: Oh. I see.

Taiwanese Girl #1: I also want to buy some "Mama Porn." Do you know where I can find some of that?

Me: "Mama Porn"? What's that?

Taiwanese Girl #1: It's just some really disgusting porn with old grandmas in it. I want to give it to some of my friends as souvenirs.

Me: Are you sure they have that kind of stuff??

Taiwanese Girl #1: Yup. I saw a documentary about it while I was in Taiwan. Japanese men are so perverted.

Me: Damn straight!

I thought the "Mama Porn" reference was funny.  I regularly check out all the Japanese new releases on the web and I haven't noticed a big "mama porn" trend. So, I thought I would explore some Jap porn sites and try to locate some.  Sadly, I didn't come up with too much.  Below is a boxcover from the series that was the closest match I could find.

Just for future reference, "mama porn" is not limited to Japan where the "men are so perverted".  There's plenty of "mama porn" being produced in the USA as well.  This isn't a niche I am very well versed in, but it didn't take me long at all to find it in our own porn shops.  Here's a few "interesting" sounding titles:

Hot Fifty Plus #06
Older and Anal #10  (ewwww!)
Hey - My Grandmother is a Whore!

and finally, the one that takes the cake ... CENTURY SEX!  This dvd features Rose Agree, a "100 year old video virgin."

Last month, porn studio/distributor Red Light District Video saw copies of One Night In Paris, fly off the shelf of retailers nationwide.  As many of you know, the dvd contains hardcore footage of reality TV celebrity Paris Hilton (Simple Life).  The video was shot in 2001 by her former boyfriend, Rick Saloman. 

Behind the scenes, a whirlwind of legal battles has been going on.  Paris filed a civil lawsuit in Los Angeles County Superior Court alleging Invasion of Privacy and seeking thirty million dollars in damages.  For his part, Salomon filed a lawsuit seeking ten million dollars for slander.

Tonight, Reuters reports that Paris has dismissed her lawsuit without prejudice, permitting her to re file again in the future if she wishes.  The jingle, jangle of the cash registers may be behind her change of heart.  An un-named inside source has reported that "Saloman and the video's distributor" have agreed to pay Hilton about $400,000 plus a percentage of the sales of the tape..."  Hilton promises a portion of the proceeds will be donated to charity.

I recently had the opportunity to interview the lovely Teanna Kai, the popular Asian porno starlet and Penthouse Pet.  Is that a great body or what?!  Here's just a few brief excerpts from the transcript:

On her true ethnicity:

Teanna: Right. Well, you know what? Like when I first started in this business, a lot of people, they have like different websites, they have Thai website, or Chinese website, or Vietnamese website, Korean, whatever ... so whatever they want me to be, they just fake. You know? But actually, I'm have Hawaiian and half Filipina and I was born in Manila.

On her kinkiest porn scene:

Teanna: The kinkiest scene ... hmmmmm ... well, I think it's me and a girl and a guy's doing her, while I'm doing her. (*laughs*)... it's kinky because I don't usually have guys involved you know in my scene and I thought that was kinda cool to have a guy fucking the girl. Because I like watching raw sex, like live sex and it's a way to be involved doing something with her and I get to watch him fucking her at the same time. So it's kinda cool.

FIELD REPORT

On the set of Interracial Addiction #05 (Part One)
Woodland Hills, California, July 02, 2004

I was in porn valley last weekend and had the opportunity to be on the set of Interracial Addiction #05, an upcoming wall to waller from a new porn studio called NJ Films.  This was sort of a spur of the moment thing.  I had plans to hang out with my buddy Kylie Rey and she was asked to do this scene at the last minute as a substitute for another girl.  So, I was her "driver" for the day, and we went out afterwards.  I thought it might be fun to meet the guys from NJ, take some pictures of Kylie and write up a behind the scenes report.

In this first photo, you can see Nelson selecting a sexy outfit for Kylie to wear.  Sometimes, the directors purchase costumes for the girls, but quite often in wall to wall and gonzo movies, the girls bring a large suitcase to the set filled with skimpy clothes.  As Kylie's "driver" I helped her carry this suitcase and let me tell you -- it weighed about 50 pounds!  Not much fun on a hot summer day in porn valley!  Thank goodness it had wheels.  Nelson ultimately selected a tight, black half top and matching silk panties.  By the way, Nelson is the "N" in NJ Films.  It doesn't stand for New Jersey! 

In this photo, Kylie is posing for a "pretty girl" still picture.  Basically, these are soft core glamour photographs that are taken of the starlets before the sex scene is shot, but after their make-up is applied.  Usually the girls pose solo, with and without their clothes.  The photographers often work very quickly.  In this case, Nelson only took about a dozen or so photos and was done in about five minutes.

What happens to most of these photos is anyone's guess, but I think they wind up on the web most of the time.  These photos can also be used for boxcover art. 

This is just a quick photo I took of Kylie as she was waiting to do her scene.  The guys at NJ were messing around with the lights.  Kylie's pose and expression is natural, but doesn't she look great!?  I think she looks very alluring here in a quiet way. 

I doubt this photo needs much explanation!  Before the main scene, the producers shot some solo footage of Kylie pleasuring herself with a vibrator.  It's a good warm up activity!

A few minutes later, Kylie was getting her groove on nicely with the sex toy! 

Whew ... *wiping sweat from brow* ... that's all for now gang.  I'll continue my field report in Part Two. 

-- Snowman

P.S.  If you really can't wait to see some more pics, Kylie posted some on her Xanga already. 

P.S.S.  "De Fun CUNT" asked "just by curiosity.. how long do those sessions last?  like 30 minutes?"  Actually, a basic sex scene like this one typically lasts three to four hours!  If there is dialog, it can take longer.  

Scorched Blood asked this ... "if the guy cums too fast.. do you have to wait till he's ready to go again, then pick up where ya left off. Then make it all look like one continuous scene through the power of editing?"  Most of the time the guys are highly experienced and will not cum too fast.  If they did, the director would need to improvise and probably would wait until the guy could get hard again.  With editing, it would be hard to tell the difference.  But, there would still be a problem because the second cum shot would probably be weak.  In porn, it's much better to have gallons of goo than a weak dribble.  By the way, a much more common problem are guys who can't get it up or orgasm!  Even the most experienced male porn stars occassionally suffer from wood challenges.

One of the regular contributers to my discussion board (Roadrunner) sent me a few photos he recently took at the annual LA Erotica show.  The LA Erotica show is one of the big trade events in the industry where studios and starlets network and meet and greet fans.  I couldn't make it to the show this year, but I will probably be participating in the future. 

Anywayz, here's the pictures.  There's a discussion thread and some more photos posted on my "Asian Porno Hottie" discussion board here.  Thanks Roadrunner!

P.S. In case you are wondering, "Blue Syren Productions" is the name of my new studio coming soon!

You wouldn't think that the war in Iraq and porn would intersect, yet I continually see references that somehow link the two.  In fact, it seems easier to establish relationships between Iraq and porn than Saddam Hussein and 9-11, not withstanding Dick Chaney's steadfast assertions to the contrary.  Here's a couple of examples.

The first is from a letter to the editor of my local newspaper.  The reader writes,

... Soon Iraqis will be free like us. Many around Baghdad are already using this freedom. They now have prostitutes and pornographic movie houses. Liquor stores, forbidden before, are also open. They have a group, like our fundamentalists, objecting to these activities, but freedom will flourish. If they become really free like Americans, women will be able to expose their cleavage and belly buttons and curse in public...  We can now watch the development of the freedom and liberty we have sacrificed money and lives to attain.

I cannot confirm it is true Iraq now has prostitutes and pornographic movie theatres, but I have no reason to the statement is false.  Assuming it is true, I find this development and the writer's position quite interesting.  First, it's pretty darn amazing to me that porn would pop up so quickly in Iraq.  I suppose it is a testament to the former sexual repression in the society and the universal appeal of porn (and hookers) as a outlet.  Despite all the pressure from religion, society and peers, it appears that the demand for porn is very real.  Perhaps those who oppose it are fighting a losing battle against human nature. 

Second, the disdain the reader has for liberal sexual attitudes (including porn) is obvious.  It's curious how these forms of freedom are totally discounted by him.  I'm all for the typical freedoms people normally think of in this type of discussion such as voting rights and the right to worship as one sees fit, but these do not represent the totality of life.  Tolerance and the related concept of individual liberty to lead a lifestyle of one's own choosing are critically important as well.  And of course, porn and erotica should be permitted in a society that takes freedom of speech seriously.

The other instance of the Iraq War / porn connection has to do with a recent radio broadcast by conservative blowhard Rush Limbaugh.  It's difficult to condense what he was saying in a few sentences, but in a nutshell, Rush was arguing that the Iraqi prisoner abuse was not so surprising.  He compared it to a bunch of frat house boys playing pranks and stated that the photos reminded him of porn, and that this generation has grown up on porn, and thus this type of thing should be expected. 

Here's a few of Rush's statements from his May 14th broadcast.

Who was the first to nationally, publicly, loudly proclaim after viewing these pictures, ooh wee, looks like a whole lot of sex going on here. Who was the first to say this is stuff you would see on American computer screens at porn sites? ...  Now have you noticed how many stories there are about just how much about sex this was? I mean, we've now got stories of Americans having mattresses on the floor encircled by candles, little romantic gang bangs going on out there in front of the Iraqi prisoners ... 

I mean, I'm not a veteran of porn by any stretch, I'm not, but let's face it, average pornography does not look like Gone With the Wind, right? So you never know. If pornographers get in the military, get over there as MPs and start making movies and stuff for the hell of it, or profit or what have you. I mean, anything is possible at this point, anything is possible ... I'm saying these are 18 to 21-year-old people with raging hormones and nobody is watching, and you're throwing them together. Voila! We have the Abu Ghraib prison photos.

I'm not making this up, Rush actually said these things!  My god, these assertions strike me as totally whacked to the point of being irresponsible.  Blaming the prison abuses on porn and "raging hormones" is ludicrous and shows a total lack of comprehending the seriousness of what transpired over there.  Unbelievable.

I learned of fascinating new porn related blog written by a female starlet in the industry.  She's writing under the pen name "Shirley Shave" and changes the names to protect the innocent, and not so innocent "characters" she encounters in pornoland.  The blog reads like a novel, but she says it is not.  Her entries ring true to me.  Check it out!

P.S. - thanks for the heads up Shirley! 

I didn't work the whole time I was in Los Angeles.  On Friday, I spent the day with my friend Kylie Rey just goofing off.  Kylie is very spontaneous and I am much more the type of person who plans everything out, so in a way,  it is a good balance when we do stuff together. 

We decided to go to Universal Citywalk to look around and catch a movie.  The last time I was at Universal Studios in 1989, I don't even think the Citywalk existed.  Kylie said she hadn't been there since 9th grade. 

One store that caught my eye was the "Zen Zone".  It's an oxygen bar that also offers an aqua massage.  Their slogan is "revive - relax - replenish".  That sounded really enticing so we gave it a whirl. 

Both of us had a choice of four different aromas, each of which was supposed to have a different effect.  Kylie got into "Mango Madness" and I liked "Vanilla Bean".  At first I tried "Chillin", but it just wasn't working.  Neither of us felt any perceptible "high" from breathing in 97% pure oxygen for ten minutes, but who knows, maybe it affected us in ways we didn't understand?  We both agreed the aqua massage wasn't bad.  I thought it felt especially good on my legs and feet.

We saw Frank Oz's new movie, Stepford Wives.  I actually had no clue what this movie was about other than it was a remake, but Kylie was really up on it and wanted to see it.  Turns out, I enjoyed it quite a bit!  Kylie liked it too.  Also, OMG - Nicole Kidman looked sooooo good.  Normally, I'm not even a big fan of hers, but in this movie, I thought she looked wonderful.  As I was watching this movie, it occured to me that porn often may be a reflection of the desire of men to turn women into compliant sexual robots.  Hmmmm.

Being spontaneous wasn't working so well when it came time to find a place to eat dinner.  For some reason, we found ourselves driving in Beverly Hills.  I knew I was in trouble when I saw a Rolls Royce dealer.  Kylie and I forgot to bring our designer attire, so we agreed it would be best to head back to LA and find a more casual spot.  Kylie mentioned this Chinese place she knew, but it seemed to be located on the dark side of the moon.  After driving in the general direction of this place for an hour, we still didn't seem to be close.  Then she told me, it's "not that good!"  LOL.  Man, after driving so far, I was expecting this place to be something suitable for the Emporer himself.  We reconsidered and decided to eat at The Old Spaghetti Factory instead, which was close.  Dinner was great and Kylie was cute when she tried Spumoni for the first time.

On the way home, we passed by the Hustler Hollywood store on Sunset Blvd. and thought it would be fun to explore it.  Neither one of us had been there before.  It's probably the nicest adult store I've ever seen.  It's very clean and well lit.  There's even a cafe and adjacent book store with serious sex and erotica books of all types.  Of course, there are plenty of sexy clothes and fashion accessories and Kylie enjoyed looking at these.  Below is a picture of Kylie perfecting her new Tex-Mex look -- Yipee Kai Yay! 

You guys should know that we risked life and limb to bring you that photo.  Hustler strictly prohibits taking any photographs in the store.  In fact, on her website diary page Kylie has another funny photo we took in the Hustler store after we found one of her dvds on the rack.  You can see the angry security guard in the background swooping down on us!

Anywayz ... I had a awesome time hanging out with Kylie.  She rocks!

FIELD REPORT

On the Set of PAYBACK
Chattsworth, California, 06.10.04

I was in porn valley this weekend and on the set of a new upcoming (scripted) feature from Sin City Entertainment called Payback.  The cast included Hannah Harper, Britney Skye, Justine Joli and raincoater favorite Aurora Snow.  Francois Clouset (Arrowhead, Summer Wind,  The Bachelors) directed.

I missed most of the dialog sessions and was only there for one (of two) shooting days so I'll have to defer to Sin City's synopsis:

Daniel is the alpha shark of the waters, a lawyer with no conscience, not even among his peers.  Unfortunately for Daniel, his personality has forced some of his colleagues and his lovers to conspire against him, resulting in his untimely demise.  But all is not lost as Daniel is given a second chance…a chance for revenge.

 

Payback is the story of a man with no redeeming qualities and the women that once loved him.  The conspiracy that ensues leaves no one innocent as Daniel comes back for revenge.  Daniel’s vengeance is served in the form of a woman, Jackie, and she is pissed.  As Jackie picks through her murderous lovers one by one, she looses sight of what her purpose is and falls for the one man she originally set out to destroy in her previous life as Daniel.

Three sex scenes were scheduled on Thursday, but sadly, I only saw two of them.  Myself (and all the other press reps) were distracted by the NBA Playoff game in the family room.  The Lakers were going down in flames against the Pistons in Detroit.  Evan Stone was providing funny commentary which helped eased everyone's pain.  While we were engrossed with the game, Francois was serendipitously filming one of the sex scenes upstairs.  I know, I know ... some of you are probably thinking, "Man, if I was there, there's no way I would miss one of the sex scenes!"  But hey, in our defense it wasn't all guys hanging out.  Slinky Aurora Snow was lounging on the sofa and a other few cuties were in close proximity also.  Aurora is a major distraction, in a good way!

Here's what I did see.  First, an energetic, outdoor romp featuring English blond Hannah Harper and Evan Stone.  This scene was filmed as the sun was setting so the light was flattering to the performers.  The location of this shoot was a beautiful, private estate overlooking the entire city near the ridge that separates San Fernando from Simi Valley (Topanga Canyon Avenue and the 118 Freeway).

The other scene was an entertaining girl/girl scene that paired Hannah with Justine Joli, a perky redhead (at present) who I found intriguing.  This scene was filmed indoors utilizing a wet bar.  Carefully crafted lighting and a fog machine added to the atmosphere in this scene.

I also witnessed some of the non-sex footage being recording including the dramatic segment where the main character meets his fate.  Surprisingly, this proved to be some of the most challenging footage of the evening -- especially for the talent (of both sexes).  Clouset employed some creative and clever camera angles to tell the story here.

While on the set, I also had the opportunity to interview Aurora Snow and Justine Joli.  Both starlets were friendly and open.  Look for the transcripts on SRR later this year!  I also plan to post a gallery with more behind the scenes photos from the Payback set.

The release date for Payback is still to be determined.  Shopping links will be posted here when more information is available.
