The Cupboard is bare, but Kelly Shibari isn’t

It is so satisfying in those privation stories—from The Book of Exodus to “Oliver Twist” to “The Road”—when our starving heroes finally get a good meal. One day when I get a minute to spare I’d like to take a series of photos of porn stars posing on mountains of food and pallets of Costco supplies, like a pallet of Kirkland’s version of Grey Goose and a truck full of toilet paper. That’s conspicuous consumption and just what America needs to get us through these difficult times.

While I’d like to have taken a picture of Kelly Shibari emerging naked from a refrigerator (preferably at a junkyard—I would have won another Pulitzer), I like this clothed but you never know shot of the “Overloaded” star staring forlornly into a bleak Kenmore, where rests more pickle juice than pickles, a Bud Light, for Christ’s sake, some Jiffy, and Coffeemate.

I have turned the paradigm of the gluttonous BBW on its head with this poignant and revealing photograph. And you can’t say that the fridge is empty because Shibari ate everything—just look at how clean those shelves are: nothing was ever there.

You only wish your refrigerator shelves were that clean.

But what does it say about the juicy Shibari that her cupboard is bare?

“That I’m not home much,” Shibari says.

I visited Shibari’s Northridge pied-à-terre for the upcoming Gamelink series “Fresh Ass.” We talked about butt plugs and why I was mistaken to believe they could power my toaster oven.

  1. Love Kelly! She’s one of the smartest funniest coolest people in porn, or at least that’s how it seems to me–you’d know better, Graham. This picture makes me so sad: I want to send her a care package!
