On the female side of things, the top five slots went to (in no particular order!): Joanna Angel, Faye Reagan, Sasha Grey, Stoya, and Andy San Dimas. The top five men? Marco Blaze, Barack Obama, James Deen, Evan Stone, and Reese Rideout.

Who among these worthy candidates will find themselves crowned victorious at next week's Fleshbot Awards? Only time will tell...

Say what you will about violent sports, Supreme Commandress Joanna looks just as good all buffed-up as she does in the buff. Finally, after weeks of waiting, we got to see her step toe to toe with Rawdog, and she made him her bitch. Technically, she didn't win, but only because she stomped the guy while he was down. "I really did not want to fight like a ghetto chick but it was just my first instinct to do so."

Real talk, Joanna. Real talk.

She even got to meet Paulie, one of the artists from "LA Ink," and give him her stamp of approval: "he also showed me some videos of himself getting a blowjob from someone on his phone. Anyone who does that within 2 minutes of meeting me is good in my book." If that's not a standard of friendship, then we simply do not have any friends.

Except this guy, he can be our friend. He knows what's up.

Yes, Genesis has released their annual list of the best of the best: and whether you love it or hate it, it's interesting to see who they deem worthy of the top 100 title. We've taken a closer look at their pick for the top ten, with a look at where these ladies were listed last year—and our thoughts on their current position.

As always, your thoughts for who should have made the cut are welcome in the comments.

10. Gianna Michaels

Last Year's Rank: 21

Fleshbot's Thoughts: If anything, we're just shocked it's taken so long to get the wondrous Gianna into the top ten. She's a strong performer with a resume that's as expansive as her T&A. Heck, she made our top ten all the way back in 2007.

9. Joanna Angel

Last Year's Rank: 18

Fleshbot's Thoughts: Again, it's good to see a long time favorite (and, ahem, Supreme Commandress) recognized in the top ten. We'd love to know what boosted her rank this year—was it "LA Pink"? Cause "LA Pink" does look pretty awesome....

8. Belladonna

Last Year's Rank: 5

Fleshbot's Thoughts: Any top ten that doesn't include Belladonna is just kidding itself.

7. Briana Banks

Last Year's Rank: 22

Fleshbot's Thoughts: Another hardworking performer who should have been in the top ten ages ago.

· Photo via Earl Miller (earlmiller.com)

6. Bree Olson

Last Year's Rank: 10

Fleshbot's Thoughts: Bree got a slight boost in the rankings this year—and with releases like "The Five", it's not hard to see why.

· Photo via Twistys (twistys.com)

5. Stormy Daniels

Last Year's Rank: 1

Fleshbot's Thoughts: Stormy's stayed strong this year—but she's also shifted her focus from making porn to pursuing a career in politics. You can't stay on top if you're not fully in the game.

· Photo via Wicked Pictures (freewicked.com)

4. Tera Patrick

Last Year's Rank: 2

Fleshbot's Thoughts: We're a bit surprised to see that Tera's still in the top ten. Not that we don't find her enthralling—but she barely performs anymore. Shouldn't that be a knock against her?

3. Jesse Jane

Last Year's Rank: 3

Fleshbot's Thoughts: Digital Playground's resident superstar holds steady. No surprises here: with her talent and enthusiasm for her work, Jesse's not going anywhere for a while.

2. Jenna Haze

Last Year's Rank: 4

Fleshbot's Thoughts: There's a very good reason why Jenna bagged Female Performer of the Year—and it's the same reason why she scored the number two slot on the Genesis list: this girl is fucking hot.

· Photo via Big Wet Asses (freepornofreeporn.com)

1. Sasha Grey

Last Year's Rank: 6

Fleshbot's Thoughts: 2009 is the Year of Sasha Grey. If she hadn't been crowned with the number one slot, we might have had to organize a protest (Million Fleshbot Reader March, anyone?).

(Need more convincing? The calendar features Zoli, Asa Akira, Steam, Jeanette Jones, Ryan Keely, Jelena Jensen, Heather Vandeven, Justine Joli, Joanna Angel, Nicole, Jessie Lee, Shay Laren, and Charlotte Stokely. We thought that might persuade you.)

And if you happen to be in Brooklyn on October 22, there's going to be a release party at the Mishka store (350 Broadway—that's in Brooklyn, not Manhattan). We hear Ellen will be showing off some outtakes and unused shots from the calendar...and a few models will even be on hand to sign calendars!

Now, she's not going pro or anything, but she willing be fighting against some dude named Rawdog in Jason Ellis's fightstravaganza, Ellis Mania. She's only got a few weeks to train, but we're sure she can pull it off. Pretty sure, anyway. (Maybe she should get a few fighting tips from Syd Blakovich?)

And though the nonstop onslaught of "This Ain't"s and "Not The"s has made us a bit weary, this is one XXX parody we can still get it up for, namely because a) it actually makes sense, and b) the Burning Angel crew probably would have pulled this one together even if Will Ryder had never managed to pen "Not The" anything. Oh, and there's also our longstanding fascination with Joanna Angel and Kat Von D making sweet, sweet love—and while this isn't exactly that, it's probably the closest we'll ever get (outside of our nightly fantasies, anyway).

Need more persuasion? Check out the trailer below...and the head over to the "LA Pink" website for a whole slew of preview galleries.

Our love of Joanna Angel and Tommy Pistol should be self-explanatory (though we're still a little miffed that Tommy stopped screwing on camera); and if you can't figure out why we like Jason Mewes, well, go rent "Clerks" (also, "Dogma."). We're still trying to figure out what the whole "dirty horror romance" thing means, but since it's a movie about sex workers, featuring a sex worker, that's also a horror film (and has boobs in it!)...we suspect we'll like it just fine.

All the major studios will be sending contract girls to work the crowds at Edison's New Jersey Expo Center, including Wicked's Mikayla Mendez, Vivid's Savanna Samson, and Adam & Eve's Kayden Kross, as well as dozen of famous names (Sasha Grey, Joanna Angel, Eva Angelina, Kylie Ireland, Amy Fisher) and dozens more of intriguingly unfamiliar ones (such as Cherokee D'Ass—please, someone, take me to the Ass region of France, for I intend to retire there).

And for those feeling nostalgic, the Legends of Exxxotica booth with also be featuring retired-but-not-forgotten stars from the past few decades, including Seka, Christy Canyon, and Heather Hunter (as well as some still working legends like Lisa Ann and Mr. Marcus).

Exxxotica NY takes place the weekend of September 25-27, and tickets range from $50 for a day pass to $125 for all three days. The latter translates to 31 cents per star sighting.

The steam-gathering Exxxotica shows, which began in Miami and which rival the dingy Adultcon for #2 status behind January's Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas, are both well-attended and professionally run.

Seminars include multiple session from Fleshbot Friend Jamye Waxman (including one about blowjobs) as well as Monstar's social networking wrapup and the compelling Swinging for Single Guys by Todd and Elena Crawford. I expect the latter to be especially packed with note takers. I mean, it's a cheap date.

So it comes as no surprise to learn that our fair commandress has been cast in Las Vegas-based zombie flick "Haunting Kira," especially given that her character description amounts to "Cindy Sinn, who seduces another female character in the stall of a bar bathroom."

Yep, that sounds like the (non-porn) role that Joanna was born to play.

The bad news? ClubJenna's alt line is named Undrgnd (yes, Undrgnd). Because, you know, they're underground, and also because removing vowels (and, uh, consonants) is so incredibly hip. We'd say the whole thing just sounds so 2007, but since Joanna apparently inked her ClubJenna deal two years ago...that's probably redundant.

On the other hand: Joanna Angel's Totally Screwed Out of A Shower" sounds like it will be awesome, so isn't everything else moot?

Did the Burning Angel crew master the minutia of "LA Ink"? You tell us: above, the much awaited trailer for "LA Pink."

New kids on the block Spock Buckton & Brian Bangs have big brass balls to mess with Harvey Levin, who cut his teeth on law in the mean streets of Chitown (and the O.C.) before working his way up to the People's Court and eventually taking the Thirty Mile Zone to FOX Television. These days Levin (affably spoofed by America's Most Beloved Male Porn Star—Ron Jeremy) seems more bullet proof than ever. With his tireless team of paparazzi endlessly digging for even the most trivial dirt on celebrities, he wields a powerful army who can easily probe into the life of an average blogger turned pornographer and make their life a living hell if he feels even the least bit slighted.

Still that daunting detail didn't stop the Popporn duo from satirizing the perpetually thirsty mogul's show—as well as going after American Idol, Eminem, Lindsey Lohan, Mel Gibson, Spencer Pratt, Heidi Montag, Amy Winehouse, Nicolette Sheridan, Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, and Tony Romo—to name a few. Together with Quasarman they created an alternate universe porn equivalent that is at least as much fun to watch for the sex as it is for the lampooning.

In a world where porn parodies of popular television series are being fabricated faster than the reality television shows they emulate, creating an outlandish caricature of your subject has become the most essential component of the genre, with sex value often falling a distant second to casting requirements and incessantly distracting dialogue. The 3rd Degree team allots equal gravity to both, making a compelling show that brings the fuck action to the max while remaining epically entertaining.

Francesca Le, Tori Black, Brynn Tyler, Faye Reagan, and Anthony Rosano do all the hard work, while crossover stars Lisa Ann and Joanna Angel make guest appearances that don't involve seeing them pounded hard in their beautiful holes.

Seriously people, this thing is funny and hawt. You're going to have to check it out when it releases on August 25 to find out more, but for now, take a good long look at these snaps and satisfy your guilty pleasures.

And, as compelling as Brian Street Team's account of how he became a pornstar may be, it's nowhere near as compelling as the sight of a very naked Adahlia straddling a cab. Or Jessie Lee and MistiDawn in a threesome with Mr. Pete. Or Ashphyxia and Allister and their little pink dildo...or any of the other photos that make up this 146 pages of punk rock porn goodness (okay, some of those pages are ads).

One might wonder why, in these dying days of old media, a successful new media porn venture would choose to experiment with print. We, for one, aren't really sure: though if putting together a print rag helps BurningAngel burn its brand into the brains of some of the less web-savvy, then more power to them. We imagine many a fresh faced teen will have their world rocked by the discovery of BurningAngel on sitting on the rack next to Swank.
