Just from random memory, I come up with the following recent events in the world of porn:
...
Brian Surewood and his car become involved in the death of an innocent child. Pornworld's response, Wow, he was always such a mellow guy.
...
Chico Wang involves himself in the death of his wife, then offs himself. Pornworld's response, We've never seen Chico use coke, how could this happen?
...
Jon Dough hangs himself. Pornworld's response, Never saw that one coming.
...
Sierra Sinn waxes poetically one day to Mean Gene about shitting on another whore, then quits porn and runs to Shelly Lubben the next week. Pornworld's response, That's a surprise.
I could go on, but you get the point: the slew of "big porn stories" lately always invite the "it just doesn't make sense" response. I'm here to offer a small bit of advice to you all:
yes, it makes sense. Get used to it, because
you porn people barely know each other.
Some of you will come back and say to yourselves,
Willie is crazy, I see X pornoperson on the set every day, s/he's so normal. If that's the case, why didn't someone take Haley Paige aside once and clue her in about Martin del Taco...or Cokehead Wang? Have
any of you bothered to ask about the alleged "fund" they set up Chloe Jones? Exactly what type of bond do you form on the set while you lube yourself up for the next scene?
Relax. Trust me,
this is not uncommon. People sit in their cubicles every day across this country and look at their coworkers, and they know squat about them. We allow each other to know what we want people to know, and you are no different.
So own it. The only reason you'll know Lucy Lee is a convicted felon is because we know she's sitting upstate in some women's prison for a year, and that's nothing against Lucy Lee, who I consider a great whore.
I often see the comment that the porn world is a "close-knit" community. Well, it might have been in the past, with a limited number of performers and producers.
That's just a bunch of bullshit now. There are more people in the "world" of porn than ever. How close-knit can you be when your chosen "Best New Starlet" doesn't even bother to show up for her award?
So,
please, before your knee jerks and you rush to the defense of someone you once got paid to have sex with, or hung out with as PSK, just take a step back and bite your tongue...just for a minute,
before you make a fool of yourself and write a mouth-check that your ass can't cash.
