Top Five Porn Stars

1. Chloe Dior
2. Taylor Rain
3. Keely Coles (Kacey)
4. Jenna Haze
5. Jenna Jameson



Would you believe several of these performers now have I.M.D.B. and Wikipedia pages? I found them while searching for Kacey's full name. I guess porn really is becoming more mainstream!

I won't use the old "it's empowering" cliché but it's clear the industry is a lot more open and regulated than it used to be and an increasing number of women feel that getting laid by some of the most skilled men on the planet and collecting immense riches for the trouble is not such a bad way to spend your twenties. I'll just paraphrase Massive Attack's Robert Del Naja, who had to publicly defend his viewing habits after having been wrongfully arrested for possession of child pornography in 2001: "having it, watching people have it, reading about it... I like sex."

Have you ever worked out your porn name? There are convoluted tests to be taken online, of which I took three today and got three different answers ranging from the sublime - Xavier Hammer - to the ridiculous - Chris Cucumber. Of course, I'm no relation to this guy (the link page is SFW - I make no promises beyond that).

In school, our method was to combine your first pet's name with either your mother's maiden name or the name of the street where you grew up. My brother and I shared fish called Tom and Jerry which makes me either Jerry Ford, Tom Kipling, or some permutation thereof. I think I like the first one best because it sounds like an ex-president.
