Gone, But Not Forgotten: Porn’s 2014 Retirees

2014's retired pornstars

As one year closes and another dawns, and as a genuine legend of porn and one of the most memorable mainstream crossover successes in recent years retires (that’d be Lisa Ann), it’s well worth remembering the handful of other adult performers, women specifically, who for whatever reason decided 2014 would see the end of their porn careers and, as far as we forward-looking porn fans are concerned, the end of each of them as we know it. (Save those heading for self-employment through webcam, bless them!) Adult performers hanging up their bedazzled thongs this year included the following five Mr. Pink’s faves:

Evelyn Lin: now hosting club nights at various, uh, nightclubs around North America.

Holly Michaels: engaged, she left porn and, if her Amazon Wish List is any indication, might have started a family!

Mischa Brooks: quietly stopped working and announced her retirement from “adult” with assurances that we’d “see her soon” – whatever that means.

Alina Li: after a bad experience with a certain notoriously edgy BDSM studio, would prefer to wait tables at this point.

Abella Anderson: in business for herself and now selling swimwear, makeup, and prints of her fine self at Alluring Star; she also performs live on Camster.

Hey, at least ass-tastic Jynx Maze, who apparently retired earlier this year, is back in action! Hopefully she’ll inspire some bold and adventurous newcomers to enter porn and fill the void left by the above dear departed stars.

China Against Porn in 2015

anti-porn

Throughout 2014, Chinese government officials have been cracking down on pornographic online content, successfully relaunching their campaign to wipe out sexually explicit material behind the Great Firewall. As 2015 is set to see even more aggressive disruption, why don’t we take a look back at the year that was and remember those valiant Chinese who fell under the anti-gambling and anti-porn crackdowns of 2014.

The National Anti-Pornography and Anti-Illegal Publications Office (which sure sounds like a hoot to work for) revealed more details of the year’s haul in a press release last week. According to the press release, the department investigated some 8,344 “pornography and illegal publication” cases this year. Surprisingly, though, only 844 involved printed porn and there were just 584 cases involving Internet porn. (Piracy, at 2,687 cases, is still the most prominent problem.)

Details of the individuals accused or charged are difficult to find, though one such offender, identified only as Zhong by China News Service, found himself sentenced to 14 months after being caught with more than 200 “prepared discs” containing sexually explicit imagery. The kicker, though, is that Zhong allegedly only sold 20 of these discs for a profit of 40 RMB (less than $6.50 USD).

Will 2015 see an even more aggressive anti-porn onslaught from government agencies or is there a chance China will lighten up, sexually speaking, in the new year? If this month’s reports of mass anti-porn arrests – I’m talkin’ over 3,000 people in southern province Guandong are any indication – China’s just getting started. With more than 8,000 already held in criminal detention as of mid-December, it’s clear pornographers are still being seriously targeted as, along with those seeking religious, artistic, journalistic freedom, enemies of the state.

However you want to factor a prayer (or attentive psychic transmissions of ‘good vibes’ for you secular folk) into your New Year’s resolutions is fine by me, just remember those who’ve fallen in the line of booty, sacrificing their freedom just to get their fellow countrymen off. Without them, your masturbation means little. Let your freak flag fly in 2015!

Spend the New Year with Tori Black

As I head out for sufficient supplies to ensure tonight is a New Year’s Eve to remember – alcohol, party hats, a four-channel power amplifier, prophylactics, more alcohol, six bags of Brite Crawlers, some “herbal supplements”, a little more alcohol, and my date, of course – let me leave those of you without plans something to get excited about: ringing in the New Year with the one, the only, the unstoppably sexy Tori Black.

Part of Porn.com’s regular #FreeCamFridays program, Ms. Black’s live webcam appearance this coming Friday, January 2nd (at 6pm PST) gives you a chance to party down with one of porn’s most desired and revered women, all through the miracle of webcam video sharing. Porn.com cam manager Jack T. speaks very highly of the star, calling her “the world’s arguably most popular pornstar,” adding “I can’t think of a better way to start off the New Year.” As a free show, anyone over the age of 18 can enter Black’s chat room to observe and engage with the star, who’ll be taking time away from her blossoming family to cement some bread-and-butter relationships with fans. Devoted admirers after more intimate interactions will be able to take Ms. Black into private and group shows by purchasing tokens, which can (and should) also be used to tip the multi-award-winning performer.

And for those of us to whom New Year’s Eve delivers nothing but drunken buffoonery and romantic disappointment (even with Tori Black’s involvement) there’s plenty of archived holiday-themed pornstar cam shows ready to roll. Lexi Belle’s Halloween Happening or Allie Haze’s Milky White Christmas, anyone?

Ruttin’ Around the Christmas Tree

Merry Christmas and Joyous Kwanzaa and Happy Hanukkah to you all, my friends! (Did I miss anything?) As the year winds to a close with a celebration of many festivals, we once again turn to porn to see the graphic depiction of what will no doubt be running through many of our heads as we sit around the fire or complain about an underdone turkey: sex.

Strapping on Santa hats and sucking some serious dick this year are such ladies as Riley Reid, Dakota Skye, and Brooklyn Chase in new works from hard-working pornographers who now find themselves filled with the Christmas spirit. It’s still something of a disappointment, though, to see so many major networks miss the chance to do something special for their fans. Thank your preferred deity, then, for Brazzers, Twistys, 21Sextury, and Team Skeet.

Pix and Video presents Cecilya De Lys in tree-decorating event turned holiday love-in, while that site’s big daddy, 21 Sextury, gives its devoted fans something special starring Riley Reid, Capri Cavanni, Janice Griffith, and others. Over at Team Skeet, there’s a trio of tinsel-flecked scenes from Teen Curves, Exxxtra Small, and Teen Pies as Karlee Grey, Lizzie Bell, and Rachel Rose each receive a gift from their own personal Santa Claus.

Once again it’s Brazzers that has really captured the spirit of Christmas celebrations, shooting new holiday-themed scenes for Teens Like it Big, Brazzers Exxtra, Baby Got Boobs, and Big Tits at Work. Teen hussies Dakota Skye and Samantha Rone give very different performances in their scenes, Dakota taking on two burglars in a loose parody of Home Alone, Samantha sucking the hell out of Santa’s hard-on and having her Christmas wish realized. Alexa Pierce spices up the office Christmas party, doubling up on Keiran Lee and Danny Mountain’s huge dongs while Baby Got Boobs sees Brooklyn Chase and Shawna Lenee do some doubling-up of their own as they throw off their ugly sweaters and give Danny D. a four-breasted titty-fucking to remember! “Yuletide commando” Honey Demon rushes to the North Pole to find out why Santa missed his deliveries only to discover an enraged Mrs. Claus, an imprisoned Santa, and Danny D’s giant erection. And, in a two-part feature for Brazzers Exxtra, Czech babes Carla Cox and Tarra White bring a little incestuousness to the table, sucking and fucking stepdad and stepson alike under the soft colorful glow of their trees decorative lights.

Sigh. If only my own holiday break was guaranteed to be so eventful… Hopefully yours comes close!
