The Semi-Retirement: When some girls quit the business, they just quit one part of it. Take Lexi Bardot, for instance, who may have left Porn Valley but who still creates online content. Wich is something we're extremely grateful for.

The (Very) Brief Exit: We were heartbroken when Belladonna announced that she was going to be retiring from the hardcore life due to an STD scare Thankfully, we weren't heartbroken for very long: less than a month after that announcement, she was back in the saddle again, which is exactly where we like to see her.

The Higher Calling: When Jesus calls, porn stars answer — at least when those porn stars are Crissy Moran and Erica Campbell, who left the jizz biz for the Jesus biz. We tried telling them that looking at them naked was a different but equally valid religious experience, but they chose to take a different path anyway.

The Very Public Exit: Who could ever forget Jenna Jameson? And who could forget her announcing, in the thick of the 2008 AVN Awards, that she "would never spread [her] legs for this industry again"? Hey, if you're going to quit porn, you might as well do it in front of a live audience comprised of a lot of the people who made you a star in the first place.

When The Past Comes Calling: Sometimes, even webcam girls get the blues (and the urge to quit): Tiffany Teen was driven to quit the life of a barely legal webcam girl after pictures from her high school yearbook were posted online. Sometimes, the past should stay the past (especially when it scares pretty girls away from being naked.)

Committing Suicide: With all the drama that's gone on at alt megasite SuicideGirls, it's not surprising that they've inspired more than a few creative (and dramatic) exits, including the one time near thirty models quit at once. For sheer style, though, we'd like to single out Flux, who managed to quit with a pretty piece of prose that tugged at our heartstrings. And let's not forget Dia while we're at it.

So did we miss anyone? Let us know your favorite porn star exits in the comments.

Girls with saucy piercings make me swoon,



Alas, where can I find such poon?



Is it catalogued in a futuristic robot?



Perhaps on the friendly (and sexy) Fleshbot.

See kids? A little effort goes a long way! Good thing that we just so happen to like hot pierced models almost as much as we like flattering poetry. See what we found after the jump.

Matters of verisimilitude aside, it's still beyond entertaining to see the cast reenact those heady years of social malaise and heavy eyeliner: Sasha Gray fits right into 1982 with her radical pre-Brazilian era bush, while Fleshbot faves Madison Young, Ashley Blue (who helped write the screenplay), Lexi Belle, and newcomer Maya Hills turn in stellar performances as well, all to a soundtrack featuring punk rock legends Keith Morris, Don Bolles, and Jim Lane from Circle Jerks along with 45 Grave, Germs, and Killroy. We'll be posting an in-depth review of this thought-provoking sex-packed time capsule as soon as we manage to watch the whole thing without getting ... uh, caught up in the nostalgia; talk a walk down memory lane with our exclusive preview gallery below in the meantime.

Altporn princess and noted tentacle canoodler Mandy Morbid took home the tiara amidst applause from the crowd, outshining such luminaries as art star (and boyfriend!) Zak Smith and fellow Fleshbot fantasy gal April Flores. Needless to say, we wish you were there .... and thanks to a couple of photos we managed to shoot in between jostling all the other photographers who were trying to get close to Kane & company over the course of the evening, you totally are!

Well, eight months after it first started making headlines we finally managed to score an invite to the Zivity beta site, and now we can tell you: not very much.

After all the hype it's received, we expected ... well, something we hadn't seen before, or at least something pretty special. You know, something slightly more than just an opportunity to set up a profile page and look at some pictures of naked chicks female beauty.

Granted, Zivity has entered the market at more than a bit of disadvantage. With megaporn site (excuse us, modern pinup showcase) SuicideGirls setting a certain standard for adult communities online, it can be pretty hard for any new kid on the block to compete. Still, given that Zivity is clearly aware of SG (Missy Suicide is one of their photographers), you'd think they'd at least try to have a site that's more impressive.

No such luck, though: aside from the photos and their totally original voting system, there's not much there there Does anyone really need yet another website where they can set up yet another profile? Sure, the pictures are pretty hot (if a bit tame) ... but why do you have to have one more profile to keep track of just to look at them?

Photo Upload Page (note: no nudity for nonmodels!)

To be fair, Zivity is in beta, so maybe they have some other features in the works that will be in place before their public launch. If not ... well, we sure hope at least a chunk of that $7 million is winding up in their models' pockets. We hate to see good money going to waste.

Despite the exhortations to "rise up" contained in the title being feted, those present at "The Doll Underground" release party seemed to openly mock the very suggestion of class warfare and sexual redistribution of capital as they nibbled on truffled foie gras and quaffed liberally from Waterford crystal flacons of 1995 Chateau Margaux. After showing up to the party in his custom Hummer stretch limousine, McKai exerted a Svengali-like hold on starlets Lexi Belle and Reagan Maddux throughout the evening, never allowing reporters to approach them directly and openly dictating their responses to them instead.

Also spotted at the gala were such prominent members of Old Los Angeles society as Ed Fox, Dave Naz, Ashley Blue, Zack Sabbath, Mandy Morbid, Kimberly Kane, Carlos Batts, and April Flores, all of whom listened in rapt attention as McKai described the splendor of his new palatial estate in Cap d'Antibes while feeding mouthfuls of gold leaf-encrusted cake to three or four waifish models inked from head to toe in "rebellious" tattoos and splayed at his feet. Later, after a shower of $1000 bills descended from the ceiling of the Little Cave upon the heads of the delighted guests, a Vivid Alt-branded personal helicopter spirited him away from the festivities. What will he think of next?

. . .

Like many of its predecessors, Kiss My Bliss features photos of both male and female models—and in some cases, both at the same time. The photos have an innocent, girl- or boy-next-door feel; the vibe is not unlike that of fellow Aussie site, Abby Winters. Fake tits and Lucite stilettos are nowhere to be seen. And yes, there is pubic hair.

The site is largely, if not exclusively, softcore, with an artistic bent. Though there are shots of couples, we didn't see any hardcore action (or even anything close: hard cocks are few and far between on this site).

There are still some kinks that need to be worked out; most frustrating: the site's navigation is unintuitive and cumbersome. But since Kiss My Bliss is new to the market, we'll give it the benefit of the doubt. It's exciting to see some a new entry into the catalogue of progressive online porn—here's hoping that the Australian version of altporn fares better than its American cousin.

· Kiss My Bliss (kissmybliss.net)

Early reports about the movie, which has been over a year in the making, described it as a story about tutu-clad suburban Gothic hotties being recruited for some sort of anti-capitalist terrorist cell. That's true enough, we guess, though the finished project is a lot more disjointed and impressionistic than that: if "The Doll Underground" is "about" anything, it's that sex is as much about power as it is about pleasure, maybe even more so. From our eminent colleague Violet Blue's five-star review:

Pulsing with energy, eerie visuals, clever pacing and deliberate editing, the film is a haiku telling the story of five young women tired of being controlled by society ("buy nothing" is repeated as a mantra) who emulate a mashup of the Weather Underground and Patty Hearst's SLA ideals. They band together in the Belmont Tunnel in Los Angeles under the direction of uber-sexy goth Lorna Adorn (Pixie Pearl), create and distribute anti-capitalist and anti-conformity propaganda (podcasts and screenprint pasteup art), build bombs and make things go boom ... Visually and throughout the delivery of the minimalistic story arc, it plays like a long, gorgeous, lush yet also somehow dark, saturated but bleak music video.

(... ) I wonder, did The Doll Underground *actually* come from porn valley? There are no blondes, no long fingernails, no fake breasts, no skinny girls, no big boobs, no fake female orgasms. The soundtrack never interrupts the sex; the sounds of sex are the focus. The women's bodies look like regular *hot* girls; the have ass, thigh, meat on those bones that make you want to cuddle and fuck and snuggle. Half the cast, at most, is tattooed; many are pierced, and two of the men are uncut. There are no unsafe or scary sex acts; no anal, no "gapes" and thankfuckinggawd no ATMs. The negative? People still wear white belts.

But let's talk about the sex; the mood is disaffected, the visuals dream-like, but the sex is riveting. Besides Pixie's solo masturbation scene (a Goth dream come true), the performers do not acknowledge the camera during sex scenes — with one deliberate exception. Outside of sex, the performers have direct viewer "eye contact" as part of the narrative. The storytelling is for the viewer; for the sex we are but voyeurs. The editing is tight yet deliberate.

(... ) The Doll Underground is one of the best porn films I've ever seen, and it feels like anti-porn — it's almost against the system it came from by being all that it is — a deep investigation of culture from an industry we regard as being utterly bereft of culture beyond the superficial. Rise up, indeed. Highly recommended.

We couldn't have said it better ourselves, except maybe to add that "The Doll Underground" is one of those rare porn movies that we find ourselves watching as much for the interstitial parts and high style as for the fucking itself ... although once we remember how hot the fucking is, we find ourselves wanting to fast forward to that again too. It might not be everyone's cup of dirt pipe milkshake, but if you're looking for an utterly original porn experience that'll leave you with something more than just a sticky feeling in your pants, "The Doll Underground" is the place to be. Anti-capitalist gothic Lolitas never looked so good.

As a veteran of altporn, this makes me cringe; but as a veteran of altporn, I also know she's right.

When I was a wide eyed nineteen year old with a digital camera and a dream, it was a different story: someone like me could (and did) start a porn site — one that, free from the pressures of the corporate world, could explore different territory from mainstream porn. But the dream is dead, kids. If you want to be in the online porn scene these days, you've got to have cash — and as a result, "indie" porn ain't so indie anymore.

So what changed?

· The Visa/MC crackdown. A decade or so ago, starting a porn site was easy: you got some web space, you took some naked pix, you found a billing agent to process your membership fees ... and then you sat back and waited for the money to roll in. But in fall of 2002, Visa and Mastercard decided to end the party. Declaring adult sites to be a high risk for chargebacks, they started requiring a registration fee to process payments for adult sites: $750 up front and $375 annually after that. While that's not big money for a large company, it's a substantial hit (and deterrent) for a small startup. (Bonus fact: The Visa/MC processing fees are the reason why you can't use PayPal to sell adult-themed products. So when PayPal cancels your account after it finds out you're selling used panties ... well, at least now you'll know why.)

· Stricter 2257 regulations. If you want to pose naked on the internet, you need to be 18 or older — and if you want to post naked pictures of other people on the internet, you need proof that all the people you're posting pictures of are at least 18. This used to be a relatively simple matter of getting an ID and a release form from everyone who modeled for you. Then the government decided to step in and make things a little more complex: claiming that they were fighting the evil menace of child porn, they started requiring vastly more complete (and complicated) records for online models. If you're a small company running a multi-model site, 2257 record keeping requirements (which require publishing a physical address online where those records can be inspected and keeping regular office hours so the DOJ can show up on your doorstep whenever they want to) can be brutal.

· That big bully, SG. You've heard about the lawsuits, you've heard about the exclusivity contracts, you've heard about how they basically "own" a big chunk of the altporn market. Even though they didn't invent the genre — there were lots of folks getting naked on the internet altstyle long before they launched, including me — they basically dominate the scene now: and they don't appreciate it when other companies try to take them on. And most of the time, their intimidation tactics work.

· In many ways, "Alt" isn't really alternative anymore. When I started taking it off online, it had yet to become a hipster pastime — it wasn't considered cool, and I didn't gain cred (at least not with anyone I knew in person) for doing it. Flash forward to 2004: SuicideGirls is mainstream, emo girls aspire to be porn stars when they hit 18, and a whole lot of people are looking to cash in on the next new thing in porn. Hence Hustler bankrolling a Burning Angel movie and Vivid launching Vivid Alt. Tattoos and piercings in porn used to signify a product that was female-friendly, feminist, and (dare we say it) empowering; now it's just another wrapper for the same old product.

This isn't to say that any broke kid with dreams of becoming a porn mogul can, if given the chance, launch a progressive porn site even a radical feminist could love. But as more and more barriers to entry get put up — economic, legal, or otherwise — fewer people are able to enter the market; and those that do are unlikely to risk their bankroll trying to create and promote a different kind of porn. Which, at the end of the day, may be the reason why the most progressive porn site I've seen in recent years comes to us from Australia.
