Over the years we have seen countless rock and heavy metal videos glamorizing the Playboy bunnies and adult film stars. Melting on the screen were vixens sprawled across vintage cars, pool parties, and backstage concerts exploding out of their extra small bathing suits. We would see long manes swinging from left to right and posing with a painted on smile in the middle of a blizzard. Do Slayer, Poison, and Van Halen come to mind? When the nineties hit, we began to see a rebirth of this trend hit the hip-hop world. This virus spread by small appearances of models standing next to the artist fulfilling her contractual obligations as good “eye candy.” Eminem’s video “Without Me”, paid homage to female porn stars Jena Jamison and Raven. If you were not aware, Jena Jamison is the Elvis of females in the adult entertainment industry. A self made millionaire so to speak. Soon, other hip hop artists followed this rising trend. Vanessa Del Rio is considered to be the cream of the crop as well. There are and were mountains of request for cameos in film and in music. Her name is also the hook and catch phrase slipping through 16 bars in many studios.
Soon, other hip artists followed. These sightings did not come across the television screen once in a while, but quite often. The repetition grew and introduced a make shift marriage between hip-hop and adult entertainment. Artists like 50 Cent, Flo Rida, Snoop Dogg, Big Boi, and many more indulge in their attempts to let the world know that they have either met, know, or have had business or personal relationships with people in the adult entertainment industry. My question is…………….. Is the mainstream public ready to be guest of this informal union? Unfortunately this slow infiltration is ever growing despite the vigorous censorship attempts of those prudes on Capitol Hill and the Supreme Court. Clearly these two industries will continue to impact mainstream audiences sparingly depending on which coast you reside. Just take a trip to www.avn.com It is an online magazine catering to the adult entertainment industry which also has an annual award show for adult film. Flo Rida performed last year for best hip hop artist. So you tell me. www.avnawards.com Do hip hop and the adult entertainment industry mix?
As an outsider looking in, I attended an event in Los Angeles for research. This was a convention held strictly for adult entertainers, affiliates, web hosts, directors, producers, and musicians. Here is what I found……………..
When I went to Erotica LA 2007, I was exposed to a world that I would never envision. I only saw this kind of Erotica on the Playboy Channel or through my dirty collections of pleasurable DVDs. Meeting people in the adult entertainment industry was an extremely exciting and intoxicating experience for me, being a closet freak and all. Aside from my visit to Amsterdam, viewing Jenna Jamison, Evan Stone, and Ron Germy, I had no clue I was mixing and mingling with the best of them. I felt like Nicole Kidman without Tom Cruise because I did not want my eyes to be shut. That is exactly how I wanted it. I purposely did not watch any porn because being a NEO erotic writer in this industry. I did not want to make any preconceived notions or judgments. I wanted to talk to these entertainers and know them as a person, and not porn stars. I could look at them and have a moderate conversation without visions of them in the buff performing. As a result, I met a host of great industry stars amateur and professional. I had the time of my life. Tre’ Chamborg is hooked. I’m taking baby steps on this one guys. Please be gentle. I came home to Washington, DC and immediately viewed all the material of the people that I met in Erotica LA. Boy oh boy was I blushing. Wow. Kaylani Cream was on me in LA and now she is on the computer at home. She made me nervous there but seeing her work the screen and everything else made sent my mind into a tailspin. This woman is smart, beautiful, sexy, and yes……..a porn star. I made these same revelations with Ms. Panther, Jada Fire, Nina Hartley, Jeff & Raven of Trashy Entertainment, Sara Jay, Pinky, Shadow Cat, Evan Stone, and many more. I can’t leave out my #1 Crush Mr. Kato Cooks. Kisses!
The moral of the story is……………………..Never judge a book by the book’s cover or the contents. Just have an open mind and the guts to step outside the box.
To sum it all up, the adult lifestyle is no longer shunned in society. With the increasing intrigue of closet fanatics and the help of Hugh Heffner www.playboy.com , we are likely to see more to come. Music and the adult entertainment industry have been flirting for years. The courtship has crept through the big screen by long time porn producer Bennie Boom who recently released the smash hit comedy “Next Day Air”. Now how did this happen? Maybe the same way that Vanessa Del Rio stole the scene from the late Bernie Mac in “Soul Man.” For those who think this is a despicable thing………Close your eyes and plug your ears. This is a train that will not slow or stop. There will be more to come………
