And apparently ladies really love elves: during her stint as Link, Justine was able to wrest a kiss from the lips of fellow Penthouse Pet Ryan Keely...and, uh, a few other things, too.

<![CDATA[JuicyPinkBox Offers An Arty Take On Lesbian Pornography]]> This past July, lawyer-cum-lesbian pornographer Jincey Lumpkin gathered together some of the hottest queer pornstars around, brought them to New York City, and had them fuck in the backseat of a taxi. The results are now available at JuicyPinkBox.com.

Yes, porn veterans like Justine Joli, Madison Young, Syd Blakovich, Jiz Lee, Dallas Fivestar, and Dylan Ryan can be found alongside a cast of newcomers (or at least Justine, Madison, Syd, and Jiz can—at the time of review, only two videos were posted to the site). A stunning cast indeed; but what makes JuicyPinkBox different from other queer porn mainstays like, say, the Crash Pad Series or Reel Queer Productions?

Jincey's said in interviews that she wants to fill a perceived void in lesbian pornography, creating "lesbian pornography that is real but glamorous and cinematic." From what we've seen, she's certainly succeeded in creating something different.

JuicyPinkBox is perhaps best compared to someone like Andrew Blake. There's a very heavy emphasis on art here, with lushly made up models in exquisite outfits rendered in the raw, grainy look of film. Extreme close ups of genitals and penetration are replaced with quick cuts of faces mid-moan and abstract shots hinting at the action. In Jiz and Madison's scene, not a single shot of penetration, or even pussy, is shown—though judging by the fevered look on Jiz's face, a good time was had by all.

Another thing that sets JPB apart from a sea of porno competitors is their apparent belief that brevity is sexy: in an environment where the twenty minute sex scene is seen as standard, JPB offers up bite size boinking in segments under ten minutes. Episode One of Taxi clocks in at 6:44, Episode Two is a slightly beefier 8:23 (though if we're being honest here, we should subtract a full minute from those counts for the extended end credits. No, we don't understand it either).

The staff of JPB has promised weekly video updates, alternating between episodes of "Taxi, "Confessions" (a series of, uh, pornstars confessing), and behind the scenes clips—all of which will contain pornographic content (hopefully some more hardcore than what we've already seen). Additionally, the site promises a new erotic story every week. However, a mere one video and story per week, with not much backlog, makes it seem hard to justify the $25/month membership fee. For now, the Crash Pad seems like a safer bet—especially if you're of the opinion that porn is best with a little (or a lot) of visible penetration.

(While you're making your decision, here's the trailer for "Taxi.")

<![CDATA[Ellen Stagg And Mishka Make 2010 A Whole Lot Sexier]]> How much do we love Ellen Stagg's photos? Enough that we've seriously considered papering our walls in them. But since our landlord probably wouldn't like that, we're going to sell for buying a copy of the 2010 Mishka calendar.

(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!

<![CDATA[Behind The Scenes At The 2010 Nerdcore Calendar Shoot]]> Last week we gave you a sneak peek at the upcoming (and totally hot) Nerdcore Horror calendar—now the Nerdcore chaps have given us a chance to see what goes on behind the scenes at their shoots.

Apparently, apparently, it's a lot of girls, standing around, naked. Which is kind of what we expected...but still, very nice to see with our own eyes.

<![CDATA[Girls Gone Horror: The Nerdcore 2010 Calendar]]> It seems like only yesterday that we were previewing shots from the 2009 Nerdcore calendar—yet here we are again, with sneak peek shots from 2010's horror-themed edition. Oh, how time flies.

As per usual, the 2010 Nerdcore calendar looks like a scorcher, with Jana Jordan, Justine Joli, Mosh, and Bobbi Starr paying tribute to horror classics ("Carrie," "Psycho," and "Bride of Frankenstein," just to name a few). Take a peek through our preview gallery...and then rush off to preorder a copy ASAP. If you ask us, the only thing scary about this calendar is the thought of not having a copy.

<![CDATA[It's Justine Joli's Party, And She'll Get Naked If She Wants To!]]> Today, Thursday July 16th, just so happens to be Justine Joli's birthday. And how does a complex beauty like the Sapphic red lust bomb plan on celebrating?

Apparently the lesbian princess of porn has orchestrated an all out bash at NYC's infamous bar Superdive—a reputedly lawless environ where guests can mix their own cocktails behind the bar and the door policy is, well, for lack of a better term, nonexistent.

Amidst this lawless carousing Joli plans to pack in hordes of capital "L" lesbians, art performers, a surprise celebrity guest or two, and famed photographers Ellen Stagg and Siege, along with a host of exotic ingenues she has collected over the last few years living in the city [edit: and maybe even a Fleshbot editrix!]. Ever playing the part of the gracious and demure hostess, Justine invites all of her friends and fans to come join her for a drink amidst the raucous celebration, to order themselves a keg and cheer to her, or to sit down at the Steinway and bang out a song in honor of her special day.

Superdive is located at 200 Avenue A, between 12th and 13th, in East Village, New York, NY 10009. For more details call 646-448-4854 or visit the bar's website.

<![CDATA[Justine Joli And New Nude City's Ashley: Separated At Birth?]]> One of our eagle-eyed commenters spotted these photos of what appears to be a young(er) Justine Joli. Is Richard Kern's Ashley a pre-glam version of the World's Sexiest Geek? Or is the strong resemblance just a coincidence?

KellyFind lists Justine's aliases as Swan, Hope, and Swan Hope—but no Ashley. Was it just a name she adopted as a one-off? Or is this just some other girl entirely? You be the judge.

<![CDATA[Popshots Of The Week! "Perfect Secretary 2: Training Day" Edition]]> We know that secretaries are trained by attending sensible home-town junior colleges for a lot less money and heartache. Nevertheless, the liberal arts graduate in us really wants there to have been rope bondage involved.


I can't imagine director Ernest Greene doing anything that doesn't involve the fleshly transfer of power. McDonald's drive-through? "McFloggets, please." At the dry cleaners? "Extra wire hangers, please." At church? "More nails."

That is why his "Perfect Secretary 2: Training Day" (he didn't direct the original) for Adam & Eve somehow involves Justine Joli being trussed like a delightful, wriggling roast sylph by the imperious and near-translucent Claire Adams.

That is why the sturdy and yelly secretarial student Mika Tan is ground by and grinds in turn the likes of Marco Banderas and Chris Cannon, nearly ruining a suite of office furniture in the process.

That is why Kayden Kross must take dictation to the beat of harsh swats from a riding crop.

The movie will be released—as if from restraints—some time this summer. I attended the filming and, since I have memories that will last a lifetime (and because I'll get it for free), won't need to buy the movie. But you really should.

<![CDATA[Andrew Blake Crams All The World's Hottest Women Into One Amazing DVD]]> This morning, we found an envelope on our desks. Inside the envelope was a thumbdrive (wrapped in bubblewrap), loaded up with a porno trailer. What kind of hotness could possibly require this level of protection?

Why, nothing short of Andrew Blake's "5 Stars," a breathtaking collection of some of Blake's most memorable scenes, starring some of the most memorable women ever to fuck on film. Aria Giovanni, Janine Lindemulder, Sasha Grey, Tera Patrick, and Dita Von Teese are the "five stars" in question: and in case that collection of leading ladies isn't enough to put you in a stupor, the cast of co-stars includes Anita Blond, Regina Hall, Justine Joli, Dahlia Grey, Nina Kornikova, Kelle Marie, Kim Wilde, Faith Leon, Temptress, Sierra, Victoria, Julia Ann, Claire Adams and Paula Price.

We don't know about you, but we think we'll be calling in sick the minute we get our hands on a copy of this masterpiece.

<![CDATA[Brains And Beauty: Our Favorite Smarty Pants Pornstars]]> Who says that pornstars are all boobs and no brains? Well, it certainly wasn't us—we happen to like our pornstars with a whole lot going on upstairs.

We usually use Fleshbot Requests to celebrate the superficial—but today we're going to go more than just skin deep, and celebrate some of our favorite pornstars who've got brains as well as beauty.


. . .

Penny Flame
Despite dropping out of college to pursue more prurient interests, Penny Flame has proven to be one of the smartest, funniest, and most entertaining performers to hit the industry in the last decade. With her own How To sex series at Vivid, overseen by none other than the Queen Bee of the Clitorati (and reclusive literary genius Thomas Pynchon's niece) Tristan Taormino, a well read blog, and rumors of an impending novel, it appears this sultry all natural girl next door is as prolific as she is insatiable. An afternoon with Flame may take you into the heart of a compassionate political discussion, poetry recitation, yoga practice, meditation, and end with tantra—if you're lucky.

Kayden Kross
Setting aside for a moment the federal indictment against her for grand theft house, it's been a hell of a year for this rising star. Even being embroiled in a real life scandal with serious consequences couldn't dampen the blazing desire of Adam & Eve contract starlet, equestrian, animal lover, and raging Libratarian. When she's not fighting for her life in court, fucking on screen, feature dancing, reading poetry with celebrated authors, writing several blogs, or working on her economics degree, she's passionately canvassing for political causes that get her hot and bothered. This year she re-upped with Adam & Eve, starred in mainstream movies and television shows, and made Penthouse Pet. When we asked her why she should be included on this list, she said “because Ayn Rand is my hero.”

Aiden Starr
This pint-sized East Coast transplant with perfect breasts has an equally perfect mind. Gifted with brains and beauty, she's given in to her overarching need for strong kink and we couldn't be happier to stand back and watch the amazing results. Equally at home having hard lengths of turgid manpipe crammed in her every orifice or arguing Nietzsche with well endowed strangers, we get the feeling you'd never know by the light of day what this astounding beauty is really capable of. 2008 was the year she convinced us that our love for her was indeed real. Now if only she would return our calls.

Justine Joli
Any list of smart pornstars would be incomplete without this luscious, nacre skinned goddess, whose extensive knowledge of GITS and BTVS is only rivaled by her ability to quote William Gibson and Aldous Huxley. A regular fixture at Comic Con, she's every nerd's dream come true: an honest-to-god geek in the form of a hot chick who loves Batman, Spiderman, and Superman with unmitigated zeal, has read every Harry Potter book in existence and loves Ronald Weasley and all things Griffyndor. It's almost too good to be true. We gotta wonder: where did she learn all that stuff again?

Joanna Angel
What's there to say? Our founding Fleshbot Commandress is an enigma of epic proportions. Smart, sexy, and Jewish, she's also covered in tattoos, loves anal sex, and has the dorkiest, and most adorable, sense of humor of any woman we have ever met. From the outset she's set the stage for her own success, owning and operating her own site crammed full of punk rock princesses just coming of age, as well as writing, producing, and starring in her own titles. Who'd have ever thought that the object of some of our most satisfyingly urgent sexual desires also possessed such uncanny business acumen?

Stoya
Stoya may be the single most beautiful woman ever to fuck on film—and that is a scientific fact. With a single flash of her sultry bedroom eyes or a playful bite of her lip she completely owns us in every way. Given the preternatural power she possess to enchant we'd never have suspected that underneath it lied a head full of art and literature. Trust us when we say it's all there. Stoya is the whole package. The last time we had the pleasure to spend an afternoon with our reigning Supreme Commandress, the Digital Playground contract star explained her doubts about the electoral process over a grueling twelve or so holes of miniature golf with such passion and clarity that we thought her publicist must have been feeding her answers via ear piece. She also makes her own clothing and loves museums and art shows. She has yet to respond to our several marriage proposals.

Sasha Grey
Being labeled “hot” by Rolling Stone magazine isn't the normal run of things for a pornstar, but then again, Sasha Grey isn't your normal pornstar. She's been recognized by rock stars and celebrities, prominently featured in music videos, interviewed in mainstream magazines, invited to lecture film school students, and cast as the female lead of a Stephen Soderbergh film. Thankfully, all this has done little to diminish her sex drive or her desire to keep fucking on film for the rest of us to enjoy. Those who spend any amount of time with her come away swearing to us that she's the real McCoy, and that hearing her freestyle on topics from Andy Warhol to film theory to the culture wars will leave you wondering how someone her age could possible be so erudite.

Kimberly Kane
Although she stole our hearts years ago, performer slash director Kimberly Kane continues to gently cradle it in her paint splattered hands. Countless hours have we spent discussing art and literature with the alt director, generally at gallery openings or on the way to some art film she's dragged us kicking and screaming to go see. It seems hard to reconcile the images we see of her on screen voraciously devouring men and women without prejudice against the reality of her quoting Kerouac to us. No list would be complete without her, even if she can't always spell.

Dana DeArmond
Self applying the label of “the internet's girlfriend” does not make you a smarty pants, exactly, but take our word for it when we tell you this girl is wicked smart. Oh, and she kinda scares us a little too so we had to include her—so she wouldn't beat us up. Her known accomplices include Aiden Starr and Kimberly Kane. That alone qualifies her for the list—her acerbic wit and lust for all things electronic merely cement her place here.

Nina Hartley
We end our short list with the one porn star we could very well have started with. Nina Hartley is more than just a porn legend, she's one of the pillars of third wave sex positive feminism, an author, the original sex educator, a spokesperson for polyamory, and a fixture of the BDSM community—which is no mean feat. Her personal blog has oft been the start of controversial discourse, and those who wish to argue against the benefits of free expression and sexuality have more than once aimed their scorn and derision at the lusty icon. Nina self assuredly shrugs off even the most intense criticism with a wry and knowing smile, using her own considerable mix of innate wisdom and intellectual prowess to aptly defend her beliefs, articulating her points with a grace that belies the calm of a Zen master, the compassion of Mother Theresa, and the carnality of, well, Nina Hartley. We can honestly say that we are grateful to be able to call her a friend.
