Harry Reems, the legendary porn pioneer who starred in both Deep Throat (1972) and The Devil in Miss Jones (1973) has passed away at age 65. Harry appeared in approximately 140 feature-length sexploitation and hardcore films in the ‘70s and ‘80s, after a chance promotion from lighting crew to star on the set of Deep Throat. His appearance in Deep Throat was not all fun and blowjobs though, since it led to his arrest by FBI agents in 1974 on charges of conspiracy to distribute obscenity across state lines. Although personal problems eventually brought her career to a standstill, Reems began his recovery in 1989 with marriage and a conversion to Christianity.
He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last summer, and passed away yesterday at the Salt Lake City VA Hospital.
Mr. Skin was lucky enough to speak to Harry Reems in 2005 when he was promoting the DVD release of Inside Deep Throat. Read his thoughts on a fascinating career here.

Jill C. Nelson made her auspicious debut in the literary world with a penetrating look at an infamous porn star in John Holmes: A Life in Inches. The interviews and research for that biography had her crossing paths with such legendary ladies as Seka, Serena, and Rhonda Jo Petty, who inspired her to embark on her latest offering, Golden Goddesses: 25 Legendary Women of Erotic Films, 1968-1985. This in-depth exposition delves into the classic era of pornography, from the onset of hardcore in 1968, to the video boom of 1985.
Jill has chronicled tales of showing tail from superstars of the skin screen like Marilyn Chambers, Seka, Veronica Hart, Georgina Spelvin, and plenty more. Women who have moved millions of sex tapes and achieved long-term staying power. Legendary screen sirens from arguably the sexiest time in hardcore history, who risked arrest and reputation to bring us some of the finest onscreen escapades ever filmed. We could wax poetic on these pioneers of porn all day!
Better yet, if it has always been your dream to meet and party with these Golden Goddesses, Jill is having two release parties this week in West Hollywood (details here), and will be joined by a lineup of legendary guests that will blow your mind and your pants: Kay Parker, Veronica Hart, Serena, Rhonda Jo Petty, Georgina Spelvin, Annie Sprinkle, Kitten Natividad, Kelly Nichols, Sharon Mitchell, Ginger Lynn, Christy Canyon, Nina Hartley, Laurie Holmes, Julia St. Vincent, Raven Touchstone, and Carly Mills (daughter of the late softcore film actress, Barbara Mills).

We're big fans of rock music here at Skin Central, but we’re even bigger fans of porn stars, so of course we were thrilled to interview Bree Olson, Kelley Jean, and Tuesday Cross of the porn star-turned-rocker movie Tight.
The recently released film follows four adult performers who have never had any trouble getting men to bang heads, Monica Mayhem, Tuesday Cross, Alicia Andrews, and Layla Labelle. With hardcore superstar Bree Olson on hand as manager, they headed to Las Vegas on a quest to become the world’s hardest-rocking raunch 'n' rollers.
After filming wrapped, lead singer Monica Mayhem left the group and was replaced by another adult performer with a great set of lungs, Kelley Jean, who led the band to a victory on Howard Stern's XXX Factor talent competition back in April.
Bree, Kelley, and Tuesday took some time off from turning the whole world on to talk to Skin Central about groupies, the finer points of band life, and their favorite music for getting it on. Rack ‘n’ roll!

With tension high between Japan and China over ownership of uninhabited East China Sea islands, there is only one question on skin fans minds. What do porn stars think of the situation?
Enter mega-mammed AV idol Sola Aoi, a hardcore honey whose star power in Asia matches the breadth of her massive melons. So when she posted two images in Chinese on her Sina Weibo account (China's equivalent of Twitter) that read "Japanese-Chinese Friendship", it reached the hairy palms of her 13 million followers. Unfortunately, there has since been a furious backlash accusing Sola of being a spy and warning her to keep out of politics. It’s a sad day when a porn star can't bring us all together.

Where would Mr. Skin be without a steady stream of nudecomers ready and willing to expose their assets on screen? Checking out drunk girls in the security mirrors during his overnight shift at 7-11, that's where.
Our newest discovery is hot blonde 24-year-old Ashley Hinshaw, who you may have seen in a myriad of guest roles on Fringe, The Glades and Gossip Girl (which we just watch for research, honest) or as Casey in the found-footage superhero flick Chronicle (2012).
Now Ashley is starring in the new, nude indie drama About Cherry (formerly known as Cherry), written by porn star Lorelei Lee and based on her experiences in the SKINdustry. Ashley plays Angelina, a teen from a troubled background who becomes an adult SKINsation under the tutelage of a female porn director (Mr. Skin Hall-of-Famer Heather Graham).
Ashley unveils the ripe fruits on her chest for five topless scenes in About Cherry, including several porn shoots and a little, ahem, self-exploration in her bedroom. Bravo, Ashley- now that's how you pop your nudity cherry!
About Cherry is available now on VOD and hits theaters on September 21, but you can see Ashley Hinshaw nude RIGHT NOW here at MrSkin.com!
If you're trying to find out what men (and women) really want, looking at porn is a good way to go. What men click when no one is watching says a lot more about them than what they say when they're trying to impress their friends. So what would the perfect porn performer look like?
Our friends over at YTD set out to find the answer to this question, taking the physical stats of past AVN Performer of the Year winners and cross-referencing them against the thousands of stars in Mr. Skin's celebrity database. In the end, they discovered that the perfect porn performer (and therefore, one might surmise, the ideal sexual partner) would have the height, weight, age, measurements, hair color, home state, and zodiac sign of Jessica Alba.
We've gotta say, we're not all that surprised.
