I can't believe Nina is just 56. She looked middle-aged when she was doing porn back in the 80's.

Mika Tan fat!!!! I had such a great time talking to her before the bash and she come over to me while I was playing cards. I had no idea she was into porn till the bash started. Before the bash, she said to me she was working the bash and told me she hoped she wasn't going to have to take on everybody at the bash(of course, she was kidding with me). I had no idea what she was talking about. I thought she was going to be serving drinks until she winked at me when I found out what she was there for.

A LEADING porn director has been suspended after an adult film star accused him of raping her at a casting meeting.
Lily Adams claimed on Twitter that the award-winning director - who goes by the name "Stills By Alan" - lured her to his house for sex.

<figcaption class="article__media-caption" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; font-family: "Roboto Slab", serif; padding: 15px;">Lily Adams, 22, said she was lured to a director's house where she was forced to have anal </figcaption></figure>

Gamma Films Group — which is best known for its award-winning website GirlsWay.com — released a statement on Monday announcing the suspension.
The company also announced that it would “be opening an internal investigation” and is in contact with authorities in the US.

Adams, 22, made the accusations against Alan in a gut-wrenching Twitter post on December 30.
She wrote: “My hands are literally shaking as I type this because I’m so nervous of the backlash.


“About 2 years ago @Stillsbyalan asked me to come over for coffee and a ‘go-see’ since I had never shot for Girlsway before.
"I was new to the industry and he invited me to his house, but I was too naive then to realize that is a major red flag.



“Anyways, we had coffee then he took me up to this ‘princess room’ and told me to get undressed.
"Again, I thought this was typical go-see procedure.”
Adams then described how she and Alan had sex but, “I mean, I never said yes but did not say no either?”
Her alleged ordeal soon went from bad to worse, according to Adams, when Alan forced her to have anal sex without either asking or receiving permission.

<figcaption class="article__media-caption" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; font-family: "Roboto Slab", serif; padding: 15px;">Lily made a series of claims in an emotional Twitter post</figcaption></figure>She claimed: “He said something along the lines of ‘I’m old enough to be your father, you do as I say.
“I laid there crying into the pillow while he continued … Not even caring about my pain.”
Afterward, Adams collected herself, left Alan’s house and then broke down emotionally in her car.
She says she tried to forget the incident ever happened so she could move on with her career.
In her statement on Twitter, she also posted a screengrab of an “anonymous, encrypted email” that triggered and corroborated her memories of Alan’s alleged assault.
According to Adams, she then contacted Bree Mills, the award-winning head of production at Gamma Films, about the email, but Mills “brushed it off.”

[FONT=&quot]PINE BLUFF, Ark. (AP) - A 69-year-old Arkansas woman who was convicted of fatally shooting her husband after she discovered he had reordered a pornography channel has been sentenced to 16 years in prison.

The Pine Bluff Commercial reported Wednesday that both sides agreed on the sentence after Patricia Hill was convicted of second-degree murder in the death of Frank Hill at their Pine Bluff home about 40 miles southeast of Little Rock.

Hill testified that she wasn't thinking when she killed her husband last July and only meant to get his attention. According to testimony, she'd previously canceled the channel from their service twice but shot her husband after seeing the channel had been added again.

Patricia Hill will be eligible to apply for parole in about three years.

[COLOR=rgba(12, 12, 12, 0.901961)]A 25-year-old woman joined a long list of alleged victims who claim owners of a San Diego-based porn website used lies and coercion to persuade them to appear in a pornographic video.
The woman is now the 23rd woman to sue the men behind the website “Girls Do Porn.”
Last week, as reported by NBC 7 Investigates, a San Diego Superior Court judge found website owner, Michael Pratt; videographer, Matthew Wolfe; and performer and recruiter Ruben Andre Garcia had lied and coerced 22 other women into appearing in the videos. The judge awarded the 22 women more than $12.7 million in damages.
In November 2019, U.S. prosecutors filed sex trafficking charges against the men. Both Garcia and Wolfe remain in federal custody as they await trial.
Owner Michale Pratt is believed to have fled the country prior to the federal indictment, his whereabouts are currently unknown.
In the latest lawsuit, the 23rd plaintiff to file a civil case against the men and website says the men lied to her repeatedly in order to convince her to fly to San Diego and appear in a pornographic video.
The complaint alleges the men told many of the same lies that were at the center of a 2016 lawsuit from the 22 plaintiffs, as outlined in NBC 7’s previous stories.

[h=3]Woman Details Elaborate Scheme That...<button class="readmore" style="border: none; color: inherit; cursor: pointer; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-weight: 700; background-position: 0px 0px;"></button>[/h]




According to the complaint, the woman known only as Jane Doe 23, was looking for a modeling job in November 2014 on the local Craigslist page in Salt Lake City when she found an ad from “Bubblegum Casting.” The ad allegedly offered $3,000 in cash for models between the ages of 18 and 23 years old.
The then 20-year-old clicked on the website and later submitted her information as well as photographs of her. A few hours later, the woman said a man named “Matt” called her. He told the woman that the modeling job was for a sex video but that the videos would only be released on DVD format in Australia. According to the complaint, the man also told the woman that only a brief clip of her video would be included in the video.
Jane Doe 23 decided against doing the video. Days later, she claims she received another call from Matt. He offered to give her the number of a woman who claimed to have shot a video for the modeling agency.
Reads the lawsuit: “When [Jane Doe 23] asked "Taylor" whether the videos were really only sold on DVD in Australia, "Taylor" explained that she had first filmed with Bubblegum Casting more than three years before and that she had filmed three videos but that she had never heard anything about the videos from anyone she knew and she did not believe the videos she filmed with Bubblegum Casting were posted on any website.”
The complaint alleges that Taylor was not a former model but instead was paid to lie to prospective models to convince them to agree.
As reported by NBC 7 Investigates, the so-called “reference girls” played an integral part in the men’s elaborate plan to get new models. LINK
Jane Doe 23 eventually agreed and flew to San Diego on November 28, 2014. She was taken to a hotel room where she says the men rushed her into signing the contract.
“The men placed their camera equipment in front of the hotel room door and were yelling at her as she was locked in a hotel room demanding that she hurry up and sign the contract,” says the woman’s attorney, Loren Washburn. “She had about two minutes to sign so they could begin filming. She became terrified and realized just what a vulnerable position she put herself in.”
Less than a month later a childhood friend from her small town in Utah sent her a screenshot of her having sex inside the hotel room that had been posted to a website called, “Imagepost.”
The screenshot was then followed with short clips of Jane Doe 23’s video on the conglomerate website, Pornhub.com.
The woman also alleges the men went a step forward, posting her social media profiles as well as pictures of her and her family on other adult websites.
“[The company] actively distributed screenshots and links of her video to friends and contacts that they discovered by viewing her social media pages,” reads the lawsuit. “In fact, within a few short weeks of the video being posted online, it had gone "viral" within the small, religious farming community where she was raised, leading to harassment, ostracization, and degrading interactions with her peers, friends, and family.”
Attorney Washburn says that his client wants the rights to her video so she can take action in removing it from the internet.
“Would she like to receive compensation for this, yes, but the primary interest that she has is getting control so that she can be the one who controls the distribution of that video,” said Washburn.
“Once that video is down the other invasions of privacy where they posted her social media information, pictures of her and her children and things like that will dissipate once the ability to watch the video is gone.”
Washburn said he hopes the lawsuit will “eliminate a lot of the harassment and stalking” that his client experienced.
An attorney for Girls Do Porn and its owner did not respond to a request for comment.
In two podcasts from NBC 7 Investigates called INSIGHT, journalists Dorian Hargrove, Tom Jones, Mari Payton, and Paul Krueger share some of the women’s stories who were featured in these videos and what they uncovered about the Girls Do Porn website, including the company’s ties to shell companies that were charged with laundering billions of dollars for a Mexican drug cartel and trafficking illegal weapons.

[COLOR=rgba(12, 12, 12, 0.901961)]A 25-year-old woman joined a long list of alleged victims who claim owners of a San Diego-based porn website used lies and coercion to persuade them to appear in a pornographic video.
The woman is now the 23rd woman to sue the men behind the website “Girls Do Porn.”
Last week, as reported by NBC 7 Investigates, a San Diego Superior Court judge found website owner, Michael Pratt; videographer, Matthew Wolfe; and performer and recruiter Ruben Andre Garcia had lied and coerced 22 other women into appearing in the videos. The judge awarded the 22 women more than $12.7 million in damages.
In November 2019, U.S. prosecutors filed sex trafficking charges against the men. Both Garcia and Wolfe remain in federal custody as they await trial.
Owner Michale Pratt is believed to have fled the country prior to the federal indictment, his whereabouts are currently unknown.
In the latest lawsuit, the 23rd plaintiff to file a civil case against the men and website says the men lied to her repeatedly in order to convince her to fly to San Diego and appear in a pornographic video.
The complaint alleges the men told many of the same lies that were at the center of a 2016 lawsuit from the 22 plaintiffs, as outlined in NBC 7’s previous stories.

According to the complaint, the woman known only as Jane Doe 23, was looking for a modeling job in November 2014 on the local Craigslist page in Salt Lake City when she found an ad from “Bubblegum Casting.” The ad allegedly offered $3,000 in cash for models between the ages of 18 and 23 years old.
The then 20-year-old clicked on the website and later submitted her information as well as photographs of her. A few hours later, the woman said a man named “Matt” called her. He told the woman that the modeling job was for a sex video but that the videos would only be released on DVD format in Australia. According to the complaint, the man also told the woman that only a brief clip of her video would be included in the video.
Jane Doe 23 decided against doing the video. Days later, she claims she received another call from Matt. He offered to give her the number of a woman who claimed to have shot a video for the modeling agency.
Reads the lawsuit: “When [Jane Doe 23] asked "Taylor" whether the videos were really only sold on DVD in Australia, "Taylor" explained that she had first filmed with Bubblegum Casting more than three years before and that she had filmed three videos but that she had never heard anything about the videos from anyone she knew and she did not believe the videos she filmed with Bubblegum Casting were posted on any website.”
The complaint alleges that Taylor was not a former model but instead was paid to lie to prospective models to convince them to agree.
As reported by NBC 7 Investigates, the so-called “reference girls” played an integral part in the men’s elaborate plan to get new models. LINK
Jane Doe 23 eventually agreed and flew to San Diego on November 28, 2014. She was taken to a hotel room where she says the men rushed her into signing the contract.
“The men placed their camera equipment in front of the hotel room door and were yelling at her as she was locked in a hotel room demanding that she hurry up and sign the contract,” says the woman’s attorney, Loren Washburn. “She had about two minutes to sign so they could begin filming. She became terrified and realized just what a vulnerable position she put herself in.”
Less than a month later a childhood friend from her small town in Utah sent her a screenshot of her having sex inside the hotel room that had been posted to a website called, “Imagepost.”
The screenshot was then followed with short clips of Jane Doe 23’s video on the conglomerate website, Pornhub.com.
The woman also alleges the men went a step forward, posting her social media profiles as well as pictures of her and her family on other adult websites.
“[The company] actively distributed screenshots and links of her video to friends and contacts that they discovered by viewing her social media pages,” reads the lawsuit. “In fact, within a few short weeks of the video being posted online, it had gone "viral" within the small, religious farming community where she was raised, leading to harassment, ostracization, and degrading interactions with her peers, friends, and family.”
Attorney Washburn says that his client wants the rights to her video so she can take action in removing it from the internet.
“Would she like to receive compensation for this, yes, but the primary interest that she has is getting control so that she can be the one who controls the distribution of that video,” said Washburn.
“Once that video is down the other invasions of privacy where they posted her social media information, pictures of her and her children and things like that will dissipate once the ability to watch the video is gone.”
Washburn said he hopes the lawsuit will “eliminate a lot of the harassment and stalking” that his client experienced.
An attorney for Girls Do Porn and its owner did not respond to a request for comment.
In two podcasts from NBC 7 Investigates called INSIGHT, journalists Dorian Hargrove, Tom Jones, Mari Payton, and Paul Krueger share some of the women’s stories who were featured in these videos and what they uncovered about the Girls Do Porn website, including the company’s ties to shell companies that were charged with laundering billions of dollars for a Mexican drug cartel and trafficking illegal weapons.

[h=1]Ex-porn star Zoe Parker dead at 24, months after leaving industry[/h]By Rob Bailey-Millado
September 14, 2020 | 8:43am

Zoe Parker, an adult film actress who was nominated for Best Virtual Reality Sex Scene in 2017, has died.
“We are sad to report that Zoe Parker passed away in her sleep on September 12th at around 2 am,” according to a GoFundMepage set up to help cover funeral expenses. “She was only 24 years old.”
Parker “moved back home to Texas to be near her family to start a new life,” wrote campaign organizer Jay Campbell of Weatherford, Texas. “She had started doing great and recently announced her engagement and by all accounts seemed truly happy for the first time in her life.”
No cause of death has been revealed at this time. She had recently left the pornographic industry, the Daily Star reported.
