We see a lot of crazy things in our line of work, but somehow the sight of a naked woman shooting fire out of her ass still has the power to astound and amaze us ... not to mention fill our heads with questions. Like how is this possible? Who is this woman? And what exactly did she have for lunch before this video shoot? Bonus points to anyone who can give us the answers. Clip after the jump. More »

Oh, Michael Lucas. We've always admired your genius for self promotion, and look forward to seeing "Gigolo", which we understand you're filming this week and which will be released ... er, whenever it's finished, we guess. But did you really have to go and send out a press release to promote it with the headline "Michael Lucas' found dead in Manhattan apartment" (sic) and an attached photo of yourself pretending to be strangled? It's kinda tasteless given recent circumstances in the gay porn world, and we're sure there's going to be even more people in the industry who will really want to strangle you as a result. Then again, pissing people off is one thing we love you for. Don't ever change, k?

Full press release (not that there's much of it) after the jump.

40,000 Blowjobs: Vote For Tania Derveaux!

As we prematurely lurch and stumble into the 2008 campaign season here in the United States, it's nice to know that in some parts of the world at least there are candidates for public office whose platforms we can support completely. So even though we're not entirely sure what she's running for (and wouldn't be able to vote even if we did since we let our Belgian voter registration lapse years ago), we're throwing our full endorsement behind NEE party senate candidate Tania Derveaux, who pledges to give her constituency a grand total of 40,000 blowjobs if she is elected. If nothing else, we have to admire her determination: she figures it will take her 500 days to make good on her promise at the rate of a jawbone-defying 80 blowjobs per day. A lofty goal to be sure, but we suppose if our own candidates are promising to clean up the mess in Iraq and sponsor a sweeping overhaul of our national health care system, anything is possible.

Jodie Marsh Wants You (To Marry Her)

What do you do when you're a British glamour model and tabloid fixture with a string of bad relationships behind you and (more to the point) a gaggle of younger babes getting more attention than you are lately? If you're Jodie Marsh, you launch a website to audition prospective spouses by standing toplessly atop a wedding cake in London's Leicester Square and wait for the world—including all those reporters and, uh, bloggers—to beat a path to your door: "I'm desperate to settle down with the man of my dreams so I'm launching a nationwide search to find a fella, but not just a boyfriend. I'm on the look out for a husband ... I know my soul-mate is out there, I just don't want to wait any longer to meet him." In case the website doesn't do the job, Jodie will also be starring in her own reality series chronicling her quest for domestic bliss on MTV this summer; we assume it will also feature the men who best answered questions like "Tell me about the best sex you ever had!" and "Is money important to you?" (She is, after all, one of the richest chavs in the UK, so weeding out any dates who are just out to make a quick pound would understandably be a priority.) Of course, if she was just doing this for attention we suppose Jodie could have just gotten a boob job and earned herself just as many new column inches as the whole marriage stunt. But that would be verging on overkill—and if there's one thing Jodie is famous for besides her already impressive (and allegedly natural) rack, it's subtlety. More »
