Believe it or not, it’s that time of year again – yes, it’s officially awards season! So it got me thinking, what porn stars have won the most awards? I keep track of this data over at my website Fame Registry. My adult industry awards database tracks the winners of the AVN, XBIZ, XRCO, Nightmoves, …
There are people out there who don’t want this post out there. They’ve gone out of their way to try and stop what is said below from being seen by bribes, threats, and intimidation. It won’t work. I will keep posting this over and over on any site I can. The public deserves to know the truth. Even if it’s not the truth some people want you to believe.
What if I was to tell you that a book was released the very day the Markus Dupree story was tweeted out by Kevin Moore (via August Ames twitter), that suggested August Ames didn’t commit suicide – instead Kevin Moore killed her.
And to take it a step further, the rumor mill says that Kevin Moore tweeted what he did about Markus Dupree’s assault on August Ames to distract the world from the very book that talks about all of this called “The Last Days of August“, written by Ron Jonson – a man who clearly has no love for the Evil Angel director.
I know it sounds like a big conspiracy theory and it may very well be just that. But you have to admit, the timing of Kevin Moore’s tweet is suspicious. Some say he tweeted that to cover up what was going on with Stills by Alan. But I think if you take the time to actually listen to “The Last Days of August“, you’ll probably agree his tweet was a great way to try and distract the world from the release of the book. A book that trashes Kevin Moore’s reputation.
While it leads you down that path several times, when you finally get to the end of the book the author confirms even he doesn’t buy that theory. But that isn’t the only bad thing the book has to say about Kevin Moore.
Axel Braun is the one in the book who really pushes the theory that August Ames was murdered
“It’s not like I’m a conspiracy theorist you know. She weighed, you know 114 pounds I think. It’s 50 miles per hour winds and you have to climb up a tree. I don’t know that you can climb on that tree, that huge trunk and just go up there and put that thing around your neck and calculate how long that thing is going to be so that when you fall down you aren’t hitting the floor. I mean it’s not an easy thing.” — Axel Braun
Strangely Axel Braun went out of his way to get a copy of the coroner’s report regarding the death of August Ames, which is where he gets most of his information to tell the author in regards to Kevin Moore and August Ames. Why? What I don’t get is, what reason would Axel Braun have to be requesting any official records of August Ames?
Was it because he was hoping he could use information from the report to get out of his civil lawsuit with her? Or was it because he wanted to leak the documents to the public? Or was it because he wanted to use information in the document to spread rumors about August Ames and her husband, Kevin Moore?
While I suspect the first two reasons may have played a part but it was the third reason, the spreading of rumors based off of information from the report that turned out to be true. He used that information in the report to slander Kevin Moore and spread misleading information about the night of her death.
For the last year we here at Mike South have been hearing a rumor that Kevin Moore wasn’t home when August Ames killed herself. The rumor was that he was “holded up in a hotel with some whore”.
As far I as I know, nobody here was never able to track down the source of that rumor, and obviously we never published it because we didn’t know if it were true or not or who the source was that was saying it. Until now …
Axel Braun revealed to the author of the book that he drove to the coroner’s office and got a copy of the report and that int he report it revealed that when August Ames’ body was found the authorities spoke to Kevin who at the time was in his hotel room at the Sheraton in Agoura Hills, which was nearly 20 miles away from his home, the one that he shared with August.
Listen, I’m no fan of Kevin Moore, but even I have to admit what Axel Braun has said in this crossed the line. But that wasn’t the worst of it. That honor would go to Axel Braun’s friend, Jessica Drake. What kind of person trashes the marriage of a dead girl? I mean it’s not like August Ames can come back from the grave and defend her relationship. And really if anyone was going to trash August Ames or her relationship.
It’s been over a year now since August Ames has died and to this day Jessica Drake still doesn’t get what she did wrong. Let’s first make sure we are all on the same page as to what Jessica Drake did in the first place.
August Ames tweeted that a scene she was scheduled for with Erotica X was canceled because she didn’t want to be with the male performer thinking he was a crossover.
That tweet sparked a firestorm that would end in her death. August Ames didn’t cave. She stood by her beliefs.
Jessica Drake made two tweets. Although she didn’t call August Ames out by name, it was clear who her tweets were about and as a result Jessica Drake’s fans piled on and attacked August Ames relentlessly.
A year later Jessica Drake still hasn’t taken responsibility for what she did that day. She still hasn’t apologized. What she has done was played the victim, something she does quite well. In the interview with the author she cries crocodile tears.
When the author cut to Jessica Drake she cried and cried and wanted you to feel sorry for her. She talks about how devastated she was. Only she forgets to mention a few key points.
Jessica Drake wants you to believe she did nothing wrong. That when she said what she did, it didn’t mention August Ames by name. But Jessica Drake isn’t stupid. She knew her fans would know exactly who she was talking about and go after August Ames and viciously attack her, just like they did.
Here is the video Jessica Drake filmed that day they found August Ames dead. You tell me. Just how distraught does she look?
Here she is on the red carpet, the night she hosted the xbiz awards. This photo was taken a few days before her tearful interview with the author Jon Ronson where she claims she’s been so distraught ever since she learned of August Ames death. You tell me. Just how torn up does Jessica Drake look? If you were to just listen to her story you would think maybe she really was all fucked up over it. But anyone who knows Jessica Drake knows better. And this picture shows the truth.
Look at that photo of Jessica Drake. This was taken just days before she was in her hotel room telling the author of the book The Last Days of August (while crying massive tears) that she can barely get out of bed she’s so traumatized. So seriously, look at that photo again. Tell me how distraught she looks. Now rewatch that video from above. That was taken on the very day August Ames died. Remind you Jessica Drake has said she found out while she was on that set and was beyond upset. I think the video and photo shows just how upset she really was about the death of August Ames. Something that to this day she has yet to apologize for her part in.
Next Jessica Drake does something even I didn’t expect. Instead of saying she was sorry, which by the way she still hasn’t done even to this day, she instead decides to talk about “weird things” in the Kevin Moore and August Ames relationship.
When Jessica Drake cried “somebody has to help me“, I wanted to throw up. She’s such a disingenuous, heartless bitch.
Kevin Moore had this to say specifically about Jessica Drake and his problem with her.
“I think she has presented herself as a sort of social justice warrior spokesperson for the industry and I think it’s a fraud and I’ll tell you why … this is a woman who maybe performs 8 to 10 times a year. She has no idea what it’s like for the real working performers who have to do 10 or 15 scenes a month and the toll that takes on their body. And she is decreeing from her ivory tower.”
“If she hadn’t been bulled she’d be alive right now. It was 24 hours after it started. How can you not see a relationship there? She was bullied by social justice warriors.”
“Jessica Drake caused irreparable harm by using her followers and stature in an attempt to silence and bully a young impressionable woman.”
But being a tactless bitch isn’t a crime so let’s move on and talk a little more about Kevin Moore. Because trust me, he’s no innocent angel in this ordeal either.
In the book, August Ames’ brother details what happened to her by Markus Dupree. This was a situation known by those close to her for months before her death. It was something that August Ames had a hard time coping with and found it hard to go back to work after doing that scene with Markus Dupree.
So that means Kevin Moore has been fully aware of what Markus Dupree did to August Ames for more than a year and he only tweets it out now? Why? Why that specific day?
Is it because he wanted to distract the world from the scandal of his friend Stills by Alan? Or was it because he wanted to distract the world from the very book that was released on the very day he made those tweets, telling the world about what happened to August Ames on set that day with Markus Dupree?
The author of the book spent quite a bit of time talking with August Ames’ brother in Canada. Something that really stuck out is how much he did not trust nor like Kevin Moore. This was based on some of the things his sister would tell him about her husband.
The author also spoke with her real life best friend, Emma Hix who also didn’t have many complimentary things to say about Kevin Moore.
Emma Hix also drops another bombshell in the book. She said that August Ames asked Kevin Moore for a divorce and for several months prior to her death.
As far as the Markus Dupree incident, August Ames was no doubt traumatized over what happened to her with Markus Dupree. Understandably, considering he choked her with her panties and he slammed her head down on the table (according to the book).
She had a hard time working after that and those close to her think that was one of the many things she was dealing in her life when she killed herself.
At first glance you might think the book is a Kevin Moore hit piece. But when you look at the big picture, you see that almost every single person the author interviewed had the same thing to say about Kevin Moore. And none of them were good.
It implies their marriage wasn’t happy and when August Ames died, he claimed he was out looking for her all night. He wasn’t. It was revealed in the book that he was actually held up in a hotel room at the Sheraton hotel in Agoura Hills. This hotel mind you isn’t anywhere near their home. This information was confirmed on legal documents connected to August Ames death.
Kevin Moore repeatedly said he called August Ames over and over the night she left. He didn’t. He texted her three times. Not 1,000 like he said. THREE. Two times to ask her about dinner and the third time was to ask where she was, saying he was starting to get worried about her.
Listening to the book you can’t help but be shocked at what you hear. Kevin Moore doesn’t come out well. Anyone who thought Kevin Moore was a nice guy, or a devoted husband might think differently after listening to this book.
The book talks quite a bit about Kevin Moore’s past, before his marriage to August Ames. He was with Hunter Bryce. They had a very rocky relationship. In the book Kevin Moore says they broke up in 2009 and that she died in 2011. But I talked to a few people who knew her and every one of them said the same thing – Kevin Moore and Hunter Bryce may have broken up in 2009 but they got back together several times after that. They were together just a few months prior to her death. She died of a lethal combination of drugs and alcohol.
Next Kevin Moore married Shazia Sahari and then one day she just disappeared. Some say that she was committed to a mental institute. It was when the author finally found her living in Chicago, that we find out about several more of Kevin Moore’s lies.
The author tries to draw a connection to these girls and August Ames and then he does just that, through a producer at Evil Angel who wishes to remain anonymous.
She goes on to tell how she always felt Kevin Moore preyed on young, vulnerable women, who had “issues”. She then told a story about the time that they were shooting and there was this girl on set who was super drunk, in the bathroom throwing up and they were about to send her home (as you can’t be drunk on set). 2 days later, according to the producer, Kevin Moore is in a hot and heavy relationship with the girl.
The unnamed female producer said that’s always the way it is with Kevin Moore. He always finds girls who have issues.
This reminded me of the time I spoke with someone who has known Kevin Moore for about 10 years now. He said something as a joke but it really has a whole new meaning now that I’ve heard this book. The guy told me that Kevin Moore could be in the room with 100 hot girls and he would always find that one girl who had something wrong with her. When I asked what he meant he said Kevin always had a thing for girls who were nut jobs, drug addicts or that have daddy issues.
If you were to believe the people interviewed in the book, yes. That’s exactly what Kevin Moore does. But not because he’s a captain save-a-ho, like you might think. Because he doesn’t try and save them. He just seems to like the crazy that goes on when you are in one of those kind of relationships
The book without a doubt makes him out to be a sexual predator who preys on those kind of girls who have issues. And even worse, the current rumors is, he’s still doing this, even after the death of August Ames.
After listening to this book for nearly 4 hours, the thing that stands out the most is that 2 of Kevin Moore’s relationships ended up with the girl dying, while another one ended up with the girl trying to kill herself. That it something to really think about. Even if you discount everything else said in the book by every person, you still are left with the fact that 2 of his past girlfriends are dead and 1 of them tried to kill herself while they were together.
She killed herself. The coroner’s report says at much. The authors of the book then takes their findings to their own expert who confirms as much. But the book also shows us just how fucked up people like Kevin Moore, Axel Braun, Jessica Drake and Jaxton Wheeler really are.
Pornography is more popular than ever, even if most people keep their viewing habits to themselves. The billion-dollar industry continues to grow and adapt, using new technology to reach customers in new markets all over the globe while.
Yet despite the advances in the creation and consumption of erotic materials, the same tired myths continue to dog the industry. Here are the top five myths about pornography and the adult entertainment industry and why they no longer hold water.
Myth #1 – Porn Movies Are All Low Budget Shlockfests
The most common and pervasive myth about porn is that it’s all directed by film school rejects and Hollywood wannabe’s in foreclosed homes and warehouses in Porn Valley on a shoestring budget in a single day or less. Detractors joke that the storylines make little or no sense, that they are full of bad acting, subpar lighting, and that they all share that cheesy soundtrack even your neighbor can recognize through the walls.
While there was a time during the video and DVD craze that this type of stuff was the standard fare, porn has come a long way in the last decade. From high end features like Kay Brandt’s Baumgartner series for Adam & Eve starring power couple Mick Blue and Anikka Albrite to sex education lines like Jessica Drake’s Guide To Wicked Sex: Satisfy Her Like A Legend to parody releases like Axel Braun’s Justice League starring Charlotte Stokely, commercial pornography is branching out to reach new markets, macro and micro.
These days you can find lesbian titles that focus on heavy foreplay right alongside the standard ‘porn-by-numbers’ stuff, along with transgender romance, interracial cuckolding, and slew of other niche fantasies! And if that doesn’t tickle your pickle, strap in and try out virtual reality.
Myth #2 – Porn Sex Is Unrealistic
The Standing Wheelbarrow. The Butter Churn. The Waterfall. The Snow Angel. The Emperor’s Hernia. Sporking. For years the popular myth was that you’d have to be just short of an Olympic athlete and trained contortionist to perform the sex positions captured in your favorite scenes.
While there are plenty of titles with professional level acrobatics and pyrotechnics you wouldn’t want to try at home in today’s commercial pornography, the vast majority of sex scenes feature the garden variety positions you’ve come to know and love. Worst case scenario, you might learn some new stuff to try out in the bedroom later.
Other complaints that fall into this general category are that the girls are all young, which the growing popularity of the MILF genre undermines (as XBIZ MILF of the Year Brandi Love can attest) and that they are all shaved, which Barely Legal star Avi Love and her big, beautiful bush assure us just isn’t so.
Myth #3 – Porn Guys Are Ugly
Back in the Golden Age of Porn, guys like John Holmes, Ron Jeremy, Harry Reems, and Buck Adams got down and dirty with hot stars like Marilyn Chambers, Nina Hartley, and Vanessa Del Rio.
They were manly men doing a dirty job that really needed doing. Getting into the business was difficult. Jobs were scarce, and sometimes questionably legal. The payoff was becoming a real star, if only on the blue screen.
With the rise of gonzo titles in the 90’s, storylines and acting took a backseat to explicit sex. The rapid escalation of production meant the need for more studs. Overnight male performers went from being celebrated studs to feeling like props. Female consumers noticed the change, and the myth that porn guys are all ugly began to take root. Only problem is, it just isn’t true.
If anything, the caliber of male star has gone WAY up since the Golden Age, with more demands than ever on the stars. Big name male talent dominating the adult industry landscape today look more like male models than former pizza delivery guys, with legions of horny fans hanging on their every word on social media and eating up their scenes.
Mick Blue, Jessy Jones, Derrick Pierce, Ricky Johnson, Jean Val Jean, Charles Dera, Bill Bailey, Ryan Driller, Seth Gamble, Keiran Lee, Shane Diesel, Xander Corvus, Johnny Sins, Isiah Maxwell, Johnny Castle, and literally dozens more, serve as proof that this porno myth just doesn’t add up!
Myth #4 – Porn Performers Are Victims Being Exploited, Especially Women
For some people the idea that women might enjoy sex enough to actively seek a career in it just doesn’t add up. To them, the only reason anyone gets involved in the adult entertainment industry is because they need to feed a habit or are being manipulated by an abusive partner making them perform. That’s just not the norm. Far from it.
It’s important to make the distinction between women being forced into prostitution and sex trafficking and adult entertainment. Adult performers actively seek out employment, of their own volition. They decide who they work with and what they will, and more importantly won’t, do with their bodies. They are free to get up and walk off set.
Performers today have more options than ever to take control of their brand and rake in the profits. Women earn more than their male counterparts, a rare feat in most industries. They run their own companies, like Female Performer of the Year Anikka Albrite, who owns BAM Visions along with her husband Mick Blue and their partner Claudio.
They use their brand to launch their dreams of becoming an author, like sexy XXX Puerto Rican Princess Shay Evans, who just released her erotic fantasies in a new bestselling series on Amazon, Shay’s Sexy Stories.
Most talent are now using their social media to earn money by giving fans exclusive access to their most private videos and photos via subscription. Popular redhead Lauren Phillips also uses hers to raise awareness about cyberbullying, donating part of her camming proceeds to organizations working to end it.
They plan out feature dancing tours across the country, like timeless beauty Jennifer White, create content for their websites and clips to sell in their online stores like inked angel Anna Bell Peaks, and plan vacations around jobs in other countries.
For those with the look, the sex drive, and the motivation, being a performer paves the way to a lifestyle beyond anything they could ever have dreamed.
Myth #5 – Porn is Free
Nope. Totally false. Just because you can see it on a tube site or download it on torrent, doesn’t make it free. Real people work hard, spending time, energy, and millions of dollars each year to create the stuff you love to watch – and not just performers. Production teams, set designers, warehouse employees, accountants, caterers, and literally hundreds of other skilled professionals make their living creating adult content.
They deserve to be compensated for their hard work, as well as the risks they take personally and professionally to create adult content.
If we do not support the people we love they will not be able to continue creating the movies, scenes, and content we consume. That’s why it is important to pay for your porn. Think it’s too expensive? Wrong again!

EMMREPORT and EMMNETWORK Present 3500 Photo Essay of the 2014 XRCO Awards! Outlets join forces to provide extensive coverage of star studded event.
EMMREPORT.com and EMMNETWORK.net have joined forces to present a special six part 3500 photo essay on the 30th Annual X-Rated Critics Organization awards show. Held April 16th at the OHM club in the heart of Hollywood, the XRCO awards were packed with the biggest names in the industry. From rising starlets to established legends, porn’s celebrities were in attendance to celebrate the winners and the XRCO’s 30th anniversary. EMM was on hand to capture all of the nights events; the winners, the presenters, the backstage antics and the sexy stars who showed off their hottest assets. The 3500 photo expose includes “safe for work” (SFW) and “not safe for work” (NSFW) photos.
“We wanted to do something special on this very special event,” Says Sherman.“The XRCO awards is one of the most anticipated events every year, and this year was no exception.”
Each part of this essay has a different aspect and perspective on the show. From the Red Carpet, backstage, Winners Circle, and the VIP Section, the report includes photos of celebrities and stars alike, including: Amber Lynn, Julia Ann, Bonnie Rotten, Karen Summer, Mike Moz, Bill Margold, Tanya Tate, Axel Braun, Taylor Wayne, Tony Batman, Rebecca Bardoux, Francesca Le, Kay Parker, Tony Montana, Jayden Lee, Hershel Savage, Allison Moore, Lisa Daniels, Jordana Heat, Abigail Mac, Barrett Blade, Kiki Daire, Ginger Lynn, Mr. Pete, Missy Monroe, Ginger Lynn, Erik Everhard, Nikki Delano, Evan Stone, Adrianna Milano, Jody Taylor, Marcus London, Summer Brielle, Mia Austin, Ire Diesel, Amanda Tate, Jessie, Nikki Benz, Gaia, Vicki Chase, Tara Holiday,Remy La Croix ,Jessica Drake, Brad Armstrong, Keylani Lei, Dave Bertalino, Roy Karch, Allie Haze, Christie Stevens, Bianca Breeze, Tony Montana, Derrick Pierce, Tia Cyrus, David “Pussyman” Christopher, Erica Mclean, Syren, Kayden Kross, Manuel Ferrara, James Bartholet, Sunny Lane, Maddy O’reilly, London Keyes, Mellisa Hill, Annika Albrite, Mick Blue, Skin Diamond,Mia Hurley, Sophia Fiore , Darla Crane, Amy Brooke, Raven Bay, Steven St Croix, Siri, Dana De Armond, Tommy Pistol, Stoya, James Deen, Alex chance, Nadia Styles, Charolette Stokley, Jack Napier, Riley Reid, Jules Jordan, Axel Braun, Mia Malkova, Katie St.Ives, Chase Ryder, Liv Aguilera, Sammy Brooks, Autumn Wells, Selma Sins, Yasmine De Leon, Tori Taylor, Natasha Vega, Jacky St James, Jenn Marie, Vivie Delmonico, Dee Dee Lynn, Savannah Jane, Pamela Balian, Alina Li,Claire Robbins, Veruca James Marica Hase, Casey Calvert, Penny Pax, Abby Cross, Venus Lux, Melissa Hills, Jennifer White, Aiden Starr, Sarah Shevon, Nicky Ferrari, Alison Kilgore, Christina Cinn, A J Applegate, Greg Lansky, Charity Bangs, Sadie Sexton and more.
With over raw 10,000 photos to choose from, the selection process proved to be quite difficult. “Originally, this was going to be a BIG set of 100 photos,” explains Sherman. “Then it just kept growing and growing and growing. We actually left some very intense stuff out. It just didn’t fit the angle of the essay.“
Both outlets plan extended video coverage as well, the reports will be hosted by adult starlet Jayden Lee (@jaydenleexxx).

Previously I made some AVN predictions (see them here), so how well did I do? Let’s find out!
Best Actress
So didn’t get this one right. Virtual newcomer Remy LaCroix took this one. She is actually pretty good. Glad to hear she won it!
Female Performer of the Year
Mainstream Star of the Year
Male Performer of the Year
Manuel Ferrara won it.
So in the end, my prediction success was only 50%. Goes to show you how much I know. LOL
The 2014 AVN Awards show is coming up and here are some of my predictions.
Best Actress
Female Performer of the Year
Mainstream Star of the Year
Male Performer of the Year
Have you ever looked up the word “authority”? I did recently and it said …
“The word authority can be used to mean power given by the state (in the form of Members of Parliament, Judges, Police Officers, etc.) or by academic knowledge of an area (someone can be an authority on a subject).
But clearly that didn’t drive the point home because just today I seen that Jessica Drake is not only still calling herself a sexual wellness authority but she has taken it a step further and plans to lead 3 sex education seminars in Arizona.
It is a felony for anyone to pretend to be a medical expert when they are not. You can’t just going around saying you are a doctor when you aren’t or in this particular case without actually saying “doctor” they are instead implying expert or authoritative knowledge in this specific area of study which is usually attributed to those with a degree in psychology or related area of study. So telling people you are an authority when you aren’t really can be a very big deal … perhaps even fraud and a felony.
I mean committing fraud by calling yourself that is one thing but to actually go forth with sex education seminars is a whole now can of worms. What the fuck is Wicked Pictures thinking about participating in this fraud and sending out press release to promote it. This makes them a part of the felony. And yes I do mean actual felony as most states have laws against this very thing and it falls under felony fraud.
At the time I wrote the first story last October I looked into it before making this post just to make sure I’m not mistaken but as I suspected, it turns out Jessica Drake, who has been promoting herself as a “sexual wellness authority” doesn’t have a degree in that area of study or actually any degree at all from what I can find.
Some may ask, what does it matter if she is trying to pretend like she is something she isn’t? Who does it really hurt?
Well it hurts those who are actually qualified to be an authority on sexual wellness. For example Dr. Victoria Zdrok who actually has a PhD in Clinical Psychology who also happens to be a former Playboy Playmate and Penthouse Pet of the Year. She also did a few adult movies as well. But again she has a PhD and that makes her an actual AUTHORITY on sexual wellness.
There are porn stars who go on to do things like that with their lives. But Jessica Drake didn’t. She just gave herself that label. She feels she is an authority so she decided to call herself that.
Apparently just having sex with a lot of men makes this porn star and Wicked Pictures and their related PR team feel entitled to call her an “Emerging Sexual Wellness Authority” and that is a huge problem.
She isn’t a doctor. She has no degree of study in this field. Sucking a lot of cock doesn’t make you an authority on sexual wellness. Nor does sleeping with a married man make you an expert of relationships. It actually kinda makes you just the opposite but that’s another story for another day.
SO QUIT PROMOTING HER AS AN AUTHORITY IN THIS FIELD! SHE’S A PORN STAR NOT A CERTIFIED MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL Believe it or not there is a major difference between the two.
But for those of you who don’t have a degree in clinical psychology or a related field, just being a porn star doesn’t make you an authority on all matters. You make be able to suck a hell of a cock but that’s a far cry from an authority on sexual wellness.
And calling me a bitch doesn’t make this fact any less true. Fraud is fraud and liking me or not liking me doesn’t really change that.
I hate to be a bitch and I’ve quite honestly fought really hard with the other posters and owners of this site to clean up the kind of articles that get released lately at LukeFord.com. I want the site to be an informative news source about the adult industry and not a pile of bullshit posts with rumors, slander and pissing matches that this site really used to be. I’m really happy to say that over the last year things have really cleaned up the site. But that doesn’t mean from time to time we have to speak out and point out some negative issues that go on in our industry and today is a perfect example of that.
It’s an election year and that means porn is always in the spotlight and anything any of us do can be a huge problem because the media or some jack ass politician looking for an easy target can make it out to be a bigger issue than it really is.
I’ve been seeing a lot of press releases lately from Wicked Pictures promoting one of their contract stars as a sex expert. Today I seen a blog post calling her an “Emerging Sexual Wellness Authority”. That bothers me.
Turns out it is a felony for anyone to pretend to be a medical expert when they are not. You can’t just going around saying you are a doctor when you aren’t or in this particular case without actually saying “doctor” they are instead implying expert or authoritative knowledge in this specific area of study which is usually attributed to those with a degree in psychology or related area of study. So telling people you are an authority when you aren’t really can be a very big deal … perhaps even fraud and a felony.
So today when I seen this porn star promoting them self as an “Emerging Sexual Wellness Authority” it really bugged me a lot. This bothers me greatly because in the end the actions of those in the spotlight in our industry has great influence over all of our lives and careers.
If someone goes around pretending they are an expert or promotes themselves as a doctor or some kind of actual medical expert and they aren’t, then it can have a negative impact on all of us. Because much like the condom issue, we have all seen how quickly an issue can get out of hand. All it takes is the right fuck up in the wrong hands and things can get ugly really quick.
I looked into it before making this post just to make sure I’m not mistaken but as I suspected, it turns out Jessica Dake, who has been promoting themselves as a “sexual wellness authority” doesn’t have a degree in that area of study or actually any degree at all from what I can find.

We have enough issues in our industry right now … do we really need to add to it by letting the mainstream media or politicians know that a porn star who no degree in this area of study and has spent years in a damaging relationship with a married man, is claiming to be an “authority on sexual wellness”?
She isn’t a doctor. She has no degree of study in this field. SO QUIT PROMOTING HER AS AN AUTHORITY IN THIS FIELD! SHE’S A PORN STAR NOT A CERTIFIED MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL Believe it or not there is a major difference between the two.

I have no problem with porn stars. Love them. In fact, I’ve worked very hard to help many of them improve their lives for years now. Think what they do is great but trying to saying a porn star is an expert on sexual wellness is just asking for trouble and more government regulation or other related troubles for our industry.
There are a lot of porn stars out there who are highly educated with advanced degrees. And to those girls I say good for them! I truly hope that one day you can use those advanced degrees like Victoria Zdrok has done and combine what she has learned in the porn industry with her degrees to write books and even get hired as a legal expert and she regularity speaks on the talk show circuit and I think writes article son sexual wellness for Penthouse too – well at least she did for awhile.
But for those of you who don’t have a degree in clinical psychology or a related field, just being a porn star doesn’t make you an authority on all matters. You make be able to suck a hell of a cock but that’s a far cry from an authority on sexual wellness.

Companies pay search engines like Google money to advertise every time people like me and you search for specific keywords. The more people per month search a specific keyword or keyword phrase, the more money Google and other search engines can charge that company for that ad.
The interesting part of that whole dynamic is that is also gives us a unique insight into the popularity of your favorite porn stars. Sites like Fame Registry use this data to help determine the overall popularity of your favorite stars.
So I decided to take a closer look today at the number of searches for some of your favorite stars. Just curious really how many people really do Google them. I grabbed some porn stars names which are some of the better known porn stars. These are all stars we kn ow and love but which of them gets Googled the most?
Sunny Leone has been heating up the search engines lately with all of her new found fame over in India. Between her appearance on the reality show Big Brother, her being cast in I think 2 or maybe 3 mainstream movies over in Bollywood and not one but two different endorsement deals, including one for a cell company over there, you can see why she has so many fans searching their hearts out to find everything they can about her.
Much to my surprise Jesse Jane gets Google’d just as much as Jenna Jameson did … well at least last month. I’m sure after the whole Jenna Jameson DUI thing her numbers next month will be much higher but at least for now she’s about on part with Jesse Jane.
Next we have the Goddess herself, Bree Olson. Despite having been out of the media circus for awhile now, she still gets an impressive number of searches each day.
Jenna Haze who has recently dropped in the rankings over at Fame Registry but still ranks very high in overall popularity and is on par in searches with Nikki Benz who was last year’s Penthouse Pet of the Year.
Riley Steele comes in below them with an impressive 450,000 searches a month and below that is British porn sensation Gemma Massey. Both of them are really the newest performers on the list. While all the others have years of experience on them, these two young starlets are holding their own with the best of them.
And below all of them is Wicked Contract girl Jessica Drake. Considering how long she has been with them I’ve very surprised at how low her numbers are. She’s below Madelyn Marie (who has 301,000 searches last month) who hasn’t been in a single movie or adult promotional event in what … like two years now? It’s nothing personal … just seems a little off to me. I just don’t know why her numbers are so low.
So now you know how the top stars rank each month, at least in terms of how many times each day someone goes out there and Google’s them. Jesse Jane coming in line with Jenna Jameson is a very impressive feat. A huge congrats to her and all the other stars on the list! They’ve all done an amazing job at keeping their fans busy wanting more and more of them, which is what gets them Google’d in the first place.
