OnlyFans will have to pay UK value added tax (VAT) on the full amount paid by subscribers to content creators, not only its 20% cut of the fees, Europe's top court said on Tuesday, siding with Britain's tax authority. OnlyFans operator Fenix clashed with UK tax authorities after they ordered it to pay VAT on all the money paid by fans between 2017 and 2020, not just the 20% it took from creators for services such as collecting and distributing fees. The company took its grievance to a UK tribunal which then sought advice from the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU), Europe's highest. The request was made before Britain withdrew from the European Union in 2020. In its ruling, the Luxembourg-based court said that VAT should be collected on the total amount received by content creators, including the "intermediary services" charged by the platform.

"Where a taxable person (OnlyFans) provides intermediary services between content creators and subscribers, the value of those services must be taken into account for the purposes of calculating the taxable amount for VAT on the fees charged to subscribers," the court said in a statement.

The CJEU added that the VAT should be calculated in the same way as if the content creators had supplied the services directly to the subscribers. The judgment is final, and the UK tribunal now has to examine the case in accordance with it and make its final ruling.

After being named XBIZ’s Performer of the Year for 2023, Cherie DeVille is riding high. Cherie was interviewed for the March 2023 issue of XBIZ World and revealed how she remains one of the industry’s most successful and respected performers. Cherie begins by speaking about how she initially worked as a physical therapist and after watching “The Girls Next Door,” she decided to do some modeling. Cherie’s photos caught the attention of OC Modeling, and she’s been in the industry ever since. Aside from being named Performer of the Year, one of Cherie’s dreams came true when she was named a Brazzers contract star. As a porn star, Cherie maintains an active presence on social media and tailors her content to algorithms to maximize her exposure. Being successful led to another venture she never thought would materialize. Cherie started writing for The Daily Beast. Cherie’s articles are thought-provoking and she uses this platform to call out the religious groups using a serious topic like trafficking to push an anti-porn agenda, as well as what it’s really like being a porn star.

“I want to thank XBIZ World Magazine for featuring me in this issue,” Cherie commented. “I always enjoy sharing my story in hopes of inspiring my colleagues in the industry, as well as helping the outside understand the industry.”

Krissy Knight and her stepbrother, Johnny Palms, are constantly bickering. Their mother sent them away to stay at her friend, Isabel Love, house for the weekend so that they can focus on bonding with each other. Luckily, Isabel lives in a FreeUse household, where bonding with others comes easily in “A FreeUse Weekend” over on MYLF’s FreeUse Milf. During a weekend away from their newly married parents, Krissy Knight and Johnny are staying over at their mom’s friend Isabel’s house. Isabel promised their mother that she would find a way to have them get along by the time she comes back from her honeymoon. In this FreeUse home, everyone must get along and pleasure each other. After many attempts at getting them to work things out, it’s not until Isabel sits the siblings down in the living room and explains how they’re all so much happier when they’re bonding together by FreeUsing each other. This leads to them having a very wholesome threesome on the couch where Krissy and Johnny finally work their differences out– while Johnny cums all over Krissy and Isabel’s faces!

Alexis Tae had a situation on a recent Kink.com set. For days other adult performers spoke out in support of the young starlet, letting Kink know they aren't okay with abusive on-set behavior. Many in the industry united to say this is not okay. This will never be okay. And they are right. That it took so many people coming out publically against the company and specifically the director, bothers me. But what broke my heart the most was this series of tweets by Alexis Tae. Because she's not wrong. The girls in our industry deserve better than this. Not only do we owe them our respect while on set, but at the very least we should listen to them. This is not okay. This will never be okay. Kink.com has now made an official statement, which I will include for you below.

Like many of you, we were concerned by the accounts of a shoot which was produced on Tuesday of last week by Clarion Alley, one of our largest content partners. It is apparent that a performer was kept suspended in bondage several minutes after they requested release, ostensibly to finish a shot, and potentially risking injury. There is an ongoing review of what happened that night, including review of all footage and interviews with all staff. Without having completed our review, we can already say there were a number of unacceptable things that happened in the shoot, and for this we are deeply sorry. As a result of this, the head of production has been let go, and Kink.com will not be working with the director of the shoot going forward. Kink.com takes responsibility for all content that is released on, or produced for, its site regardless of who it is produced by. We understand that as a company, we would not exist were it not for the relationships and trust we maintain with our models. We do not take safety violations lightly, and our models are our number one priority. We are taking steps to ensure this doesn’t happen ever again. As part of these measures we are bringing in John Paul “The Pope” to review/audit everything we are doing in production from top to bottom. The Pope is a long standing Kink.com director who still shoots content for the sites and is widely known for being the gold standard in model safety and consent practices. Without the trust of our models, we do not have the ability to continue forward as the company that we strive to be. Representatives for Kink.com are in contact with the model to rectify this situation.

The director in question was Lydia Black, who has released her own statement of sorts, on her Twitter page, in what she calls an open letter to Alexis Tae. It's not always easy to stand up for yourself but when girls like Alexis Tae do just that, they truly do make a difference for every other performer in the industry who may not be in a position to speak up and defend her rights.   [gallery link="file" columns="2" ids="eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczpcL1wvY2RuLmZsZXNoYm90LmNvbVwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyM1wvMDNcL0x5ZGlhQmxhY2sxLmpwZWciLCJ0aXRsZSI6Ikx5ZGlhQmxhY2sxIiwiY2FwdGlvbiI6IiIsImFsdCI6IiIsImRlc2NyaXB0aW9uIjoiIn0=,eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczpcL1wvY2RuLmZsZXNoYm90LmNvbVwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyM1wvMDNcL0x5ZGlhQmxhY2syLmpwZWciLCJ0aXRsZSI6Ikx5ZGlhQmxhY2syIiwiY2FwdGlvbiI6IiIsImFsdCI6IiIsImRlc2NyaXB0aW9uIjoiIn0=,eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczpcL1wvY2RuLmZsZXNoYm90LmNvbVwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyM1wvMDNcL0x5ZGlhQmxhY2szLmpwZWciLCJ0aXRsZSI6Ikx5ZGlhQmxhY2szIiwiY2FwdGlvbiI6IiIsImFsdCI6IiIsImRlc2NyaXB0aW9uIjoiIn0=,eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczpcL1wvY2RuLmZsZXNoYm90LmNvbVwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyM1wvMDNcL0x5ZGlhQmxhY2s0LmpwZWciLCJ0aXRsZSI6Ikx5ZGlhQmxhY2s0IiwiY2FwdGlvbiI6IiIsImFsdCI6IiIsImRlc2NyaXB0aW9uIjoiIn0="]

Alexis Tae and Avery Jane have been making reference on Twitter to an incident (or a series of  incidents) that happened in and out of set in connection with two Kink.com projects.  I did not immediately respond for a number of reasons detailed below. In such situations, silence  and/or lack of response can often seem incriminating, or disrespectful at best. I am sorry for not  publicly singling myself out earlier and justifying my train of thoughts and my actions. I care immensely about this industry but most importantly its community and people, performers, and  it’s honestly everything I live for. It has been tedious to stay grounded and think straight with all  this quick and dense hate towards everything I am and do. The hardest part has been reading  about how Alexis was feeling and discovering how hurt and triggered I had made her feel, and  being the recipient of all her anger and hate. I have performed in many shoots over the last seven  years, and I have suffered from other people’s inexperience and incompetence myself. My main  priority was to ensure that aspect, and regardless of what I say below, if Alexis felt as bad and  unsafe as she has been saying online, it means I have failed her in the first place, and I am sorry  beyond words. I don’t know how to move forward with myself and every of her tweet has been  crippling me with sadness and anxiety for the last few days. Some of the people I look up to have  cancelled me already, and others are calling me out publicly.

Please join me in support of Alexis Tae and all other performers like her who have had the courage to stand strong against on-set abuses and predatory behavior. Lydia Black's services have been terminated at Kink.com.

When Sheena Ryder’s stepson, Allen Swift, walks in on her having sex with his aunt Tommy King, Sheena and Tommy work together to ensure Allen keeps quiet about their affair in TeamSkeet’s new PervMom scene, “Joining Their Special Relationship”. Allen comes home to the sounds of moaning coming from one of the rooms upstairs. Curious, Allen makes his way towards the moaning and it leads him into his stepmom Sheena Ryder’s room. He catches Sheena eating his aunt Tommy out on the bed Sheena shares with his dad! Sheena sits Allen down and explains to him that she and his father have a “hall pass” that allows them to sleep with other people. But she would rather not let her husband know about the fact that it’s Allen’s aunt Tommy that she’s sleeping with. She then proposes an arrangement with Allen that would make him part of their “special relationship” as long as he can keep it a secret from his dad. This agreement now has Allen having threesomes with his stepmom and aunt almost daily, with each time escalating more and more. It’s a family entanglement that Allen can’t get enough of!

Exotic, petite, and stunning enchantress with an ALT edge, Avery Jane has returned to Brazzers for her first scene on the iconic site for 2023, and it’s a definite must-see. “Bisexual Babes Share Their Daily Dose of Dick” opens with Sierra Sinclair and Avery Jane getting together and playing—they’re on the bed and engaging in some scissoring action. The two hotties always do this when Sierra’s husband, Mick Blue, is away. But, surprise, his trip got canceled. Both ladies are wondering what he’s doing at home. Sierra comes up with a brilliant plan—she hides Avery under the blanket and convinces Mick she’s taught her foldable flexibility and gets her self-lick on. Once the jig is up and Mick spies Avery under the blanket. It’s Mick’s lucky day as he gets to pound two pussies, and Sierra and Avery are more than happy to oblige. And everyone wins in this scorching hot threesome.

“I love this scene because I got to work with Brazzers Hall of Fame Legend Mick Blue. Plus, I got the best of both worlds—a hookup with Sierra, and then a threeway with her and Mick that included a strap-on. It was an amazing afternoon, and I’m so happy to be back at Brazzers,” says Avery Jane.

This August I celebrate my 27th year of working in the adult industry. There's not much I haven't seen over the years and that includes a protest or two. But there is one particular group that has gotten some traction and done some damage. So just who is "Exodus Cry", the anti-porn organization waging war on porn? Most people have heard by now about the troubles that Pornhub has had with Visa and Mastercard but they aren't alone. Onlyfans and other platforms have faced similar issues and as of last week, that includes xVideos, the company that owns BangBros, ManyVids, and Penthouse. Visa and Mastercard have suspended processing payments for xVideos and their premium site xVideos red. This means that all content creators who had premium channels also had their incomes terminated. xVideos.com is a popular tube site that believe it or not is one of the most visited websites in the entire world. They get more than 3 billion visitors a month. Yes, that means they are even more popular than Pornhub. To give you an idea of just how popular xVideos is, some websites say that Amazon gets only 2.5 billion visitors a month. That means that xVideos gets half a billion more than that! According to Similar Web, xvideos is more popular than TikTok, Reddit, Netflix, and Linkedin. Credit card companies have been targeting companies like Pornhub and xVideos thanks to the anti-porn organization Exodus Cry.

Laila Mickelwait describes herself as someone who has been combating the issue of sex trafficking for about the last decade.

But what exactly does that means and is it even true? I say this because many years ago there was an organization known as the Aids Healthcare Foundation that on the surface seemed like they wanted to help -- as they cared about the adult industry and our testing standards. It turns out all they really cared about was making a stink so that they could cash in on all those anti-porn religious donations and boy did they cash in - and I'm talking millions here. So knowing very well that there is big money in being "anti-porn" I was suspicious of Exodus Cry and more specifically Laila Mickelwait. The first anyone heard of the group was in 2007. Back then, Benjamin Nolot initiated a weekly prayer group at the International House of Prayer (IHOP), a charismatic Christian enclave. At the meetings, Nolot spoke of praying for trafficking. Five years later, Nolot dedicated the first “restoration” shelter for human trafficking victims, called the LightHouse. He declared that they wanted to “put [the victims] in the right context.”

What came of the shelter is unclear. When asked about it, Nolot has said: “Since our inception Exodus Cry has been raising awareness about the injustice of sex trafficking, advocating for effective legislation, and assisting victims and survivors, and we continue this critical work to the present day.”

So in other words, lots of fancy talk that doesn't really tell us anything. IHOP, which was sued for trademark infringement by the pancake chain in 2010 (the case was later dropped), has been featured in films like the 2013 documentary God Loves Uganda. This documentary blamed the church for creating a culture of homophobia which led to the implementation of the Anti-Homosexuality Act in Uganda. Things changed in 2016 when this Benjamin Nolot decided it was time to re-envision the role of Exodus Cry. The first thing they did is separate themselves from "IHOP", but not before the church’s founder, Mike Bickle, claimed that gay people would face “flaming missiles of the Evil One,” that the “gay marriage agenda” is “rooted in the depths of Hell,” that Adolf Hitler was a “hunter” sent by God to punish the Jews, and that Oprah Winfrey is a foot servant to the Antichrist.

In a statement to The Daily Beast, Exodus Cry CEO Benjamin Nolot denied any association with IHOP. “Since our inception Exodus Cry has been an independent 501c3 non-profit organization,” he wrote, “and is not in a formal partnership with any other organization.”

But in 2018, Open Democracy reported that Exodus Cry had been listed as a “related tax-exempt organization” on IHOP’s tax filings in their most recent returns, that both groups shared a director, and that Nolot was listed as a “prayer leader” until 2017. And if that wasn't enough, When Exodus Cry relocated from Kansas City to Sacramento, IHOP held a goodbye prayer in their honor. These were made public through church announcements on June 9 and 21 of 2019. I don't know about you but that doesn't sound very "separated" to me. So just what is the goal of Exodus Cry? According to 2018 tax filings, the group amended its mission statement to include “abolishing sex trafficking and the commercial sex industry.” That is their stated mission. Let's never forget that. Exodus Cry and their sister organization NCOSE have been approaching adult performers trying to exploit them and offering money to recruit other adult performers. From what I understand, they are hoping that their cooperation will reveal some sort of sinister information about the underbelly of the porn industry that will get the whole commercial porn industry shut down. This doesn't just mean commercial sites like Brazzers or BangBros but also platforms like ManyVids and OnlyFans. They claim to want to help but what really are they doing? I mean can you name a single person in our industry they've helped? I know I can't. But I can tell you a whole bunch of people that they've hurt. Please be careful when talking to anyone from either of these organizations. I promise they don't have a true desire to help anyone but themselves. Being anti-porn is a way for them to get donations -- millions of dollars in donations. Do they actually do anything of value with that money? Of course not. But what they do want to do is "abolish the commercial sex industry." Please never forget that.
