Kendra and Cali Stretch Out at Archangel

This porn reviewer may have initially confused her with similarly blonde, athletic, and delightfully deviant colleagues Carter Cruise and Natalia Starr but in the four years since she stepped onto a porn set for the first time, 27-year-old Sacramento-born stunner Cali Carter has been slowly working her way into the viewing diet of untold thousands of porno fans. A curvaceous bottle-blonde with a penchant for ink work and hefty cocks, Ms. Carter is a porno archetype looking for a way to solidify her presence, her unique personality in the adult world.

Having taken a slightly different route to erotic infamy than Ms. Carter, Kendra Lust recently signed an exclusive performance contract with acclaimed director Mimefreak’s upstart Archangel studio and confirmed her place in the porn history books both as a dynamite “MILF” performer and a shining example of self-determined career-cultivation. Gifted not only with a box cover but a feature title. The Booty Queen #3 sees Ms. Lust commandeer a cast of awesome pornstars and studs – Joining her thick-rumped romping are AJ Applegate and Jada Stevens, two women that have previously held the Booty Queen title – and ravish all comers in an intense trio of ass-focused scenes. Lust’s first interracial scene was shot of Archangel and again she allows them a great privilege: her first double-penetration encounter.

Not to be outdone by her slightly more famous colleague, Cali Carter snagged her own title feature, Cali Carter is the Archangel. Trickling out to Archangel’s online audience over the past few months, Carter’s epic cover girl turn sees her handle Mandingo in her first BBC encounter (a creampie!), take on a pair of porn’s biggest, blackest dicks in a threesome, wrangle another five cocks in a messy-as-hell blowbang that leaves the breakout star dripping in sweat and spooge.

Celebrating the release of Ms. Lust’s orifice-expanding new Archangel adventures, the studio has announced a competition that can net three lucky fans Kendra-focused prize packs. The 2nd Runner Up wins a copy of The Booty Queen and a signed photo of its star; the 1st Runner Up adds Kendra’s Lust’s Perfect Stroke Mouth masturbator. One Grand Prize pack will be awarded to one participant, containing the aforementioned prizes as well as a day pass to the 2018 AVN Convention, the outfit worn by Kendra in her first DP scene, and, most tantalizing of all, a phone call from the maven of masturbatory entertainment herself. Fans have until April 7th to enter; stop by Archangel’s blog for more details and, don’t forget, Kendra and Cali’s showcases are exclusive to Archangel and can be viewed online at the official studio site in glorious HD video.

Lansky Lures Back Lana

This week sees the home video release of yet another title from Tushy maestro Greg Lansky. Once again training his lush cinematic style on one outstanding performer, Lansky has managed to make the dreams of many porn lovers come true. He has lured an enormously popular performer back from early retirement and cemented her place in the annals of adult entertainment history with a five-scene run showcased on his Tushy website over the last four months. The performer: Lana Rhoades.

Sliding into her role as 2016 porno “it” girl with a flirtatious softcore introduction at FTV Girls, the icy-blue-eyed 20-year-old from Chicago knows first only as Lana soon appeared staring into the POV camera of a hardcore Bang Bros scene, in classic black lingerie seducing former “it” boy James Deen at EroticaX, lending her incredible gaze and gorgeous face to Naughty America’s booming Virtual Reality series, and shooting her first scene with Lansky for his interracial super-success-story Blacked. The fans, Lansky and company, and Lana Rhoades herself all agreed it was a fantastic match.

Released tomorrow, March 24, on 2-disc DVD, ‘Lana’ comes as the culmination of a comeback made after a very brief retirement announced after mere months in the biz. It seems, fans, that money and Lansky lured her back and, though she’s spread her legs for other studios since returning, her most coveted porno coup, anal sex, has so far been only available to Lansky. Well, Lansky and her ‘Lana’ co-stars, that is. First to appear at Tushy.com was in-house anal-virginity-claimer Jean Val Jean with Rhoades’s second scene devoted to dominant redhead Penny Pax guiding the intimidating Manuel Ferrera where so many fans requested he be. Another encounter clamored for by viewers, an anally-focused lesbian pairing, saw reigning AVN Queen Adriana Chechik dive into Lana’s ass tongue-first. After dealing with Flash Brown back in her first month of hardcore performance, Rhoades then gave her rear to another of Lansky’s go-to guys, John Johnson. It could be said that every expanding experience up until this point had been in preparation for one monumental achievement in any pornstar’s career: her first double-penetration. Fitting, then, that Jean Val Jean returns in this last of the Lana-and-Lanksy collaborations (thus far) and brings everyone’s favorite gentleman cockmaster Mick Blue with him, pushing their fast rising co-star’s incredible body into unchartered territory.

Where, oh where, will Lana Rhoades, definitely not really retired and now posing for Playboy, Hustler, Penthouse along with her exclusive Virtual Reality work with Naughty America, go from here? (Clearly not to LanaRhoades.com.)

#TeamBJ Blows Again

Following in the outrageously loose-moraled footsteps of Sara Jay, Vicky Vette, Angelina Castro, Maggie Green, and a select group of other adult performers who performed the ultimate fan service by sucking the cocks of their Twitter followers in one giant slobbery sitting, two of today’s finest are aiming to do the very same in celebration of the New England Patriots’ 2017 Super Bowl win. This time around it’ll be Carmen Valentina and fiesta redhead Lauren Phillip sucking hundreds of dicks, so let’s take a look at these two ladies before they dive headfirst into a literal roomful of fans.

Valentina seems fully prepared, telling AVN “I have my knee pads, some baby wipes, and am ready to stay on my knees as long as there are followers who want a BJ.” Starting out in porn back in 2010, Valentina has been closely associated with her VNA Girls network head honcho Vicky Vette, shooting her first scenes for Vette at the turn of the decade.

Only emerging in the mainstream porn world over the past 12 months, Lauren Phillips immediately garnered feverish attention for her luscious curvy figure, ample chest, and obvious enjoyment of on-screen sex. Expanding recently into bisexual porn at Devil’s Film and virtual encounters for a variety of 3D productions, Phillips earned herself two 2017 AVN nominations for Best Group Sex Scene and Best Virtual Reality Sex Scene and appears set to make this year even more impressive than her last, starting out with #TeamBJ’s fanbase blowbang.

Tomorrow, March 14th, is the big day, so be sure to keep an eye on both Phillips’ and Valentina’s Twitter feeds for on-the-ground reportage and the TeamBJ website for details on the forthcoming DVD release. Until then, why not indulge in some of the finest fucking work by these two vixens? Lauren Phillips’ devoting herself to a pair of massive black cocks at Dogfart’s Blacks on Blondes is an amazing showcase of her rampant sluttiness while Valentina has impressed throughout the years, shooting a trio of excellent scenes for Naughty America.

Any bets on who’ll be the next oral sluts to join the ranks of TeamBJ’s sports-mad cocksucking crew?

“People are People’ Brings IR into Focus

The interracial porn niche has long been a controversial one. Seen by many critics as exploitative of submissive white female and aggressive black male stereotypes, the unification of black and white bodies in adult entertainment cannot be seen as entirely detrimental to the culture. Where else could the general public see, even before the socially liberal Golden Age, that which society still roundly shunned?

The AVN Adult Entertainment Expo recently hosted a panel discussion entitled ‘People are People’ that saw notable adult performers of color assessing the role race has played in their careers. Lexington Steele and Sean Michaels encountered significant boundaries, Michaels starting his career in the more accepting European industry before gaining a foothold in the US. Steele praised his colleague as an icon who “took more lumps than anyone in this industry” yet “made it easy for people like [Steele] to move from performer to director to producer.” Michaels recalled walking off multiple sets after being asked to perform a derogatory role but believes some stereotypes can be harmless and representative of the culture.

Fiery Vietnamese performer Cindy Starfall admits her solid work ethic is undervalued and her worth as a leading star underrated because producers place her almost exclusively in ethnic titles. Citing her accent as a major hurdle, she’s now more defiant. “A lot of time I just make fun of my accent to get it over with,” she said. “But… I started to realize… if you don’t like my accent, don’t book me.”

Labelled by some producers as Latina, others as Asian, others still as Caucasian, Mexico-born Kristina Rose – “I don’t even speak Spanish” – has even been asked to essentially cosplay as another race. “They put a bindi on me and asked me to get a tan,” she told the seminar audience. “When I first got into the industry I was told that [because] I’m Mexican, I wouldn’t make as much money as white girls and I couldn’t be on box covers.” Now a multiple AVN winner, Rose lamented that although some things have changed, when it comes to the financial element, not much has changed.

Days before receiving an AVN Award for Best Non-Sex Performance (Suicide Squad XXX: An Axel Braun Parody; Wicked Pictures, 2016), veteran performer Nyomi Banxxx only learned of pay disparity between black and white performers after believing everything was equal. Asking her agent to raise her rates for interracial scenes with white men, she was told such scenes weren’t interracial. Insisting on equal treatment, Banxxx earned the higher rate. Steele also addressed the million-dollar issue: “There ultimately is a color that reigns supreme over black, white, red, whatever – and that’s green. Revealing his particular hustle has been “to make a whore out of the business and not let the business make a whore out of” him.

Hosted by Alexander DeVoe, founder of the freshly revived Urban X Awards, the seminar also made clear that this accomplished group of professionals has contributed more than their share to adult entertainment. From Steele’s long run at Evil Angel to Michaels’s newest Airerose efforts, to awesome showcase features Starfall (Evil Angel, 2015), Kristina Rose: Unfiltered (Belladonna/Evil Angel, 2012), and Naomi Banxxx is Hardcore (Elegant Angel, 2010) there’s much to be thankful on the audience end, too.
