Scarlett Rouge: 12 Years for Murder

Noted BBW adult performer, Scarlett Rouge, was convicted of murder in the second degree last week at the close of her trial in Niagara Falls, New York. The victim, Ralph Stone, bled to death from a single stab wound to the neck. Stone was the father of a two-year-old daughter and a landscaper for his family’s business. He was 24-years-old and Rouge’s boyfriend.

Arrested and charged with second-degree murder after an incident on February 6 of 2013, Rouge, whose real name is Jennifer Marchant, stood trial in Niagara County Court and detailed her relationship to the deceased and the court heard of her previous run-ins with the law and aggressive confrontations with former flames. On probation for DWI offenses at the time of the stabbing, Marchant had returned early from a new job with an Amherst collection agency to find Stone drunk and on the hunt for cocaine. After joining in the revelry and bringing a co-worker, Stephanie Dee, along for the ride, Marchant played beer pong with the victim and his friend, Ray Graney, before heading to a bar for more drinking. Later, a fight ensued that resulted in Stone being stabbed once in the neck with a kitchen knife.

The Niagara Falls Reporter detailed the findings of the court and summed the whole incident, which left the families of both victim and convict in tears at the reading of the verdict, as “a lesson in how anger, jealousy, stupidity and drugs and alcohol can destroy people.” At the time of the incident, the victim’s mother told Examiner reporters, “as far as I know, they got along well. She came for Christmas. She seemed like a real nice girl.” Marchant’s family is considering an appeal and considers her actions self-defense. It’s an all-too familiar line and one that unfortunately tends to end up with abused and battered women incarcerated for protecting themselves and their families. Before her 12-year sentence was handed down, Marchant spoke of the victim to Niagara Falls County Court, saying “I loved him too, a lot, but I did everything I could that night. I begged him to stop. I should have known better.”

Beatin’ on a Budget! with Nuru Network

You’re tense and nervous and can’t relax – you need a massage! But with a full body hands-on treatment running you anywhere from $80 to $200, heading to a spa or seedy massage parlor might be a little out of your price range, let alone your comfort zone. Thank your chosen deity, then, for massage porn! Having gained an amazing amount of momentum over the past two or three years, massage porn was the subject of over a dozen quality sites from major networks like Bang Bros and Porn Pros, but until recently there was no network that devoted itself entirely to the erotic oil-aided laying on of hands. Enter: Nuru Network.

Bringing together the works of four unique massage porn sites – the sensual lesbian site All Girl Massage, the fun and lively Soapy Massage, the handy (and drop-dead sexy) masseuses of Massage Parlor, and the slippery Eastern body work of Nuru Massage – Nuru Network covers far more ground and offers much more variety than most massage sites even consider an option. Although it’s nowhere near as large as, say, Brazzers or Bang Bros, Nuru Network does update frequently, hosts ample HD movies, and features pornstar talent as skilled with their hands as they are with their mouths and hips.

THE MATH:
Ok, so it’s not as large as most featured Beatin’ on a Budget sites, but Nuru Network is no slouch when it comes to massage porn, providing its members with a grand total of 1,092 scenes (many exclusive) and their accompanying photo galleries. With Nuru Network membership now available through Mr. Pink’s for a measly $14.95, your cost-per-scene comes close to a very enticing 1 cent. So, in short, for the price of a decent massage IRL ($100) you could be nakedly gawking at Cindy Starfall, Christie Stevens, or Asa Akira rubbing her remarkably limber body all over your onscreen surrogate’s in some 6,000 scenes before you’ve spent an equivalent cost on what is undoubtedly the most varied and sensually exciting online massage porn extravaganza in existence: Nuru Network.

Twistys Boycott Gathers Speed

Part of the prize package awarded to Twistys Treat of the Year winners and runners-up for 2014 included a shooting assignment in Costa Rica, but even after the winners were announced and Mss. Aniston, Veracruz, and Alexandra started celebrating with their devoted fanbases, changes were being made that would see a different trio head to Costa Rica for what the original contestants were apparently not informed would be a boy-girl hardcore shoot. According to accusations lobbed from Camps Veracruz, South, and Alexandra, as well as from former star Brett Rossi, Twistys hasn’t been treating its girl-girl performers quite the same since being bought by Manwin (now MindGeek), the Luxembourg-Based multinational corporation that now owns Brazzers, Digital Playground, Mofos, and Twistys. Apparently as part of MindGeek’s allegiance to hetero hardcore, Twistys has been moving away from more sedate and sensual solo and lesbian sex scenes to the unexpected extent that its head honchos decided girl-girl performers Veracruz and Alexandra wouldn’t work out, legitimate runners-up or not. Instead of honoring the fans and awarding the real winners, though, it seems Twistys just upped and pulled the rug from under two of its most deserving stars. Instead arousing suspicion by appointing a performer under exclusive contract to Manwin.

And now, the Twistys forums are down, vocally critical members and models have been denied Twistys access, the #BoycottTwistys hashtag is trending hard on Twitter, Madison Ivy is smoking herself silly in beautiful Costa Rica, awaiting a dicking originally intended for someone else, and Vanessa Veracruz is offering free memberships to her official website to any former Twistys member that emails proof of their cancellation. And you, where are you on this matter? Since Twistys and Manwin have both stayed remarkably silent on the issue, it’s hard to know what’s really going on. Are you siding with your go-to smut merchants, Twistys, or aligning yourself with the embattled girl-girl performers whose very livelihoods may be under threat as a result of business indiscretions and a lack of respect for performers and fans alike?

Twistys Treat of the Year Scandal

The support of fans is essential to the success of any adult performer. When she’s stuck working in clubs, straddling a cold steel pole for tips, it’s the fans requesting her and complimenting the management that will make her a headliner. When she’s made her first appearance on a major porn network, it’s the fans commenting and voting that will see her hired again by the same and other companies. And, when accolades are up for grabs, be they awarded by AVN, XBIZ, Penthouse or Twistys, it’s often said to be the fans who determine the winners. That doesn’t always work out as planned, though, as was the case when Twistys announced its Treat of the Year winners for 2014.

In a nutshell, it appears Twistys annual fan-voted poll to determine an official Twistys Treat of the Year was not this year as genuinely fan-voted as in the past. After months of member complaints and criticism from fans, Twistys continues its transition from softcore and all-girl content to a more ubiquitous hetero hardcore M.O. and girl-girl performers are apparently considered collateral damage and discarded. One such performer, Vanessa Veracruz, has posted numerous spiels both on her own blog and on that of industry pundit Mike South detailing the ways she claims Twisty’s screwed her and fellow girl-girl performer Elle Alexandra out of their rightful crowns as first and second runners-up to Nicole Aniston’s first place win. The alleged reason: Vanessa and Elle don’t shoot hetero hardcore.
