A Candidate to Get Behind

Sammie SpadesWhen Washington gets too tough for a pretty blonde who most recently spent time working as an intern for a major political figure, where does she turn? For Sammie Spades, porn was a-callin’. Leaving her post as an intern, Sammie headed to Porn Valley, USA to become a star of the scantily-clad screen. The story of an aide to one of the nation’s highest-ranking public officials leaving politics to suck dick on camera hit TMZ and the world paid attention, for all of fifteen minutes anyway. While Sammie Spades sucks and fucks her way to what I’m sure she hopes is a long and lucrative career in porn, a huge change from a career in Washington, porn already has its resident politically-aspiring cocksucker in Mary Carey.

 
Marey CareyAfter campaigning for the seat of Governor of California in 2003’s recall election, and then again in 2005 for Lieutenant Governor, the buxom blonde known professionally as Mary Carey made it clear that her aspirations went far beyond finally working some double-penetration into her performances. Sadly pulling out of the 2005 race to care for her injured mother, Carey has been quiet on the political front ever since. With another presidential election just around the corner, though, perhaps it’s time we were given a candidate we’d all want to get behind.

 

 

Bush is Back!

Hot Bush

Ever since the shaved, waxed, or otherwise completely hairless vulva became a pornographic staple, plenty of viewers have longed for the return of that thick tuft of short, curly hair to regain its rightful place at the entry point to a world of physical sensations we can only dream about. The shaved pussy might allow the home viewer more visual access to the inner and outer workings of the female genitalia, but its breakout popularity turned the natural pubic growth into something dirty, unhygienic, undesirable; something, in short, to be overcome. But why? Pubic hair is as natural as can be and can add quite a lot to a sexual encounter.

Take a look at pornstars like Bobbi Starr, Kimberly Kane, Katie St. Ives, and Kristina Rose; all women who have, at one point or another, decided to let their furry flags fly high and proudly sport bushes that look natural, but not unkempt, adding an earth eroticism to their work. Sure, Charley Chase might use her muff to cover up a pelvis tattoo, but she too rocks her pubes in a way that should make shaved girls incredibly jealous.

Even women who’ve moved from blowbangs and anal creampies to the world of “legitimate” entertainment media proudly proclaim their vaginal hirsuteness; Sasha Grey’s unveiling of her pubes on HBO’s Entourage being the perfect example and another sign that, like it or not, the bush is back.

Tweetin’ T&A

Twitter @mrpinksdotcom

Over the past five-or-so years we’ve seen a few breakout websites that have either directly or indirectly changed the face of porn. One is clearly a boon, while the other is a more complicated bedfellow. Twitter has assisted pornstars in breaking down the barriers between them and their fans, allowing for 24/7 contact with those that made their career, and it has been embraced by almost every pornstar this porn-filled noggin can think of! Hit up a list of pornstar Tweeters and you’ll soon enough find photos of Katie St. Ives wearing nothing but a fedora and a cigarette or Bobbi Starr’s blog posts addressing the state of the adult industry; both examples of the stellar additions to the porn world made possible by Twitter.

The other site? Well, that’d be any one of those XXX YouTube clones popping up faster than you can complain about their horrible video quality and blatant copyright infringement. (More on those sites and their impact on the industry here.)
