Of all the memorable quotes generated by the adult business (“You can’t flunk out of porn,” “In space, no one can hear you gape,” “My hart is too big for this business“), non, I think, is more attributable than Jenna Jameson’s famous 2008 farewell, spat from the stage of the AVN Awards, “I will never spread my legs in this industry again.”
But on 11/11/11, I will be in New York for the Fleshbot Awards, and they will open their bar.
I have worked for Fleshbot since May of 2005, making me one of Gawker Media’s senior employees. I was hired by Jonno, the site’s brilliant founding editor, and continue to work with his thoughtful and energetic successor, Lux Alptraum, who has succeeded at the difficult job of keeping traffic at a sex site in an age of sex site saturation.
Yet I’ve never been to the home office until this week.
The third annual Fleshbot Awards, hosted by Stoya and featuring Belladonna’s captivating dance incarnation, will also honor Chyna for her Mainstream to Porn crossover success.
And the bar will be open.
Event sponsor nJoy, fashioner of marital aids that make the women in my life swoon when I’m not around and then hastily reassure me that I can’t be replaced because dildos can’t cook a steak, is also supplying the trophies, which put Oscars to shame. Nt only that, but Fleshlight will spring for the open bar which continues throughout the evening at the Highline Ballroom.
Will the alcohol be dispensed from a Fleshlight? I don’t think so and I hope not.
Tickets for the exclusive event are pricey at $200, but this is an exclusive event in which educated and urbane guests will meet the type of porn stars who can think them under the table.
I’ll change this post when I return to civilization to add coverage, photos, and video.
