Chloe Cherry Featured in New York Times Style Section

NEW YORK — The New York Times profiled former adult performer and rising mainstream starlet Chloe Cherry in the paper’s Oct. 8 Style section under its “Up Next” banner, which highlights up-and-coming figures in arts and entertainment.

In addition to noting Cherry’s age (25), hometown (Lancaster, Pennsylvania) and current living arrangements (a two-bedroom apartment in Hollywood with a roommate), the Times’ Alex Hawgood describes her as “an acting novice who made her TV debut in Season 2 of ‘Euphoria,’” where Cherry played Faye, “a wide-eyed, pouty-lipped girlfriend of a drug dealer who can’t seem to escape heroin and violence.”

“When I got the part, I still wasn’t sure if I had that great of an acting ability,” Cherry told the Times, adding that “Euphoria” creator Sam Levinson “kept rewriting things,” to give her character more screen time.

Cherry declared herself “still so shocked by how big the response has been.”

The piece then describes her beginnings and career in the adult industry in terms unusually non-stigmatizing, given the paper’s record of platforming staunchly anti-sex-work voices.

Cherry’s life story, Hagwood writes, “is as heretical as any ‘Euphoria’ plotline. In 2015, days after turning 18, she fled small-town Pennsylvania for Miami to become a porn star. ‘I was obsessed with the adult industry,’ she said. ‘I looked up how to properly run away and learned that if you’re legally an adult and you leave a note, they can’t report you missing.’ After signing with a talent agency, she moved to Los Angeles, where she stood out in the pornography industry for making wacky Instagram stories.”

The Times also notes of the multitalented Cherry, “Her breakout role in ‘Euphoria’ has opened other creative outlets. This spring, she modeled in a campy ad campaign for Versace and Ssense in which she wrestled with a purse-snatching robot, and will appear in Steve Madden ads this fall. She is also creating art (her collages were featured in a Los Angeles art show in March) and hip-hop (she has posted three tracks on SoundCloud).”

Asked about the difference between mainstream and porn, Cherry offered, “For some reason, people will pay for Hollywood stuff, but they won’t pay for porn.”

Marie Claire UK Features Smile Makers’ ‘The Billionaire’ Vibrator

Marie Claire UK Features Smile Makers' 'The Billionaire' Vibrator

LONDON — Smile Makers’ The Billionaire, marketed as “a chic vibrator for beginners,” was named this week by Marie Claire U.K. as one of the magazine’s “20 Best Sex Toys.”

Calling it “a high-end, luxury sex toy with powerful yet silent vibrations that is great for those who want to explore either penetration or external play,” Marie Claire’s reviewer and sexologist Ness Cooper noted that “as soon as I pressed the emoji patterned button (yep, love) on The Billionaire’s base, I was impressed by how powerful yet quiet the vibrator was. I liked that the toy was made from silicone as it glided over my body well.”

The Billionaire, a Smile Makers rep said, was designed to “redefine your pleasure ambition.”

Its “sleek and versatile shape,” the rep continued, “makes it ideal for tantalizing clitoral massages and throbbing vaginal stimulation alike, so you can spoil yourself with pleasure.”

Unlike “IRL moneybags,” the rep jested, Smile Maker’s The Billionaire “can’t take you to Paris for a long, expensive weekend away, but it can utilize its multiple speed settings to promote multiple orgasms.”

Sen. Manchin Pushes for Anti-Section 230 Snitching Mandate Targeting ‘Suspicious’ Content

Sen. Manchin Pushes for Anti-Section 230 Snitching Mandate Targeting 'Suspicious' Content

WASHINGTON — West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin has renewed his efforts to erode Section 230 liability protections by inserting his extremely controversial “See Something, Say Something” bill into the must-pass National Defense Authorization Act.

Manchin’s proposal “would force companies to file ‘Suspicious Transmission Activity Reports’ (STAR) for basically anything ‘suspicious’ they see online,” TechDirt’s Mike Masnick reported today.

Back in 2020, Masnick published a detailed analysis of Manchin’s “dangerous, stupid” mandatory snitching bill, which Masnick labels “a direct attack on Section 230.” Manchin is now attempting to graft the provisions of that bill onto the NDAA as an unrelated “rider.” The NDAA is the annual legislative authorization of resources for the entire U.S. military.

“You know how under the law right now, if a website finds child sexual abuse material, it needs to report it to NCMEC?” Masnick writes. “Well, this law basically expands that to, well — everything. See someone mention drugs? File a report! See someone slightly mean to someone else? File a STAR. See someone joke about a bomb? STAR. On and on and on.”

Should such provisions become law, the potential for abuse and lawfare is self-evident. Organized, well-funded groups as NCOSE and Exodus Cry could easily leverage the proposed system in order to further their mission of eradicating online pornography.

Masnick also points out that since Manchin’s proposal targets “known suspicious transmissions,” it could easily backfire and “actually encourage websites to take a less proactive approach to reviewing content, because they will claim that if they don’t look, they couldn’t have known.”

At the same time, since “See Something, Say Something” uses the “should have reasonably known” standard, platforms could be forced to litigate “whether you should have magically known about this bad thing found online.” Sites such as Twitter and Reddit, which tolerate adult content, and user-upload sites like OnlyFans and Pornhub, could expect to be challenged on such grounds by the same deep-pocketed anti-porn crusaders that have long had them in their sights.

Though nominally a Democrat, Manchin has become notorious for pushing back against his party and President Biden’s agenda, and using his tie-breaking vote in the Senate to advance positions more aligned with the Republican party and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop Releases New ‘Heartthrob’ Vibrator

Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop Releases New 'Heartthrob' Vibrator

LOS ANGELES — Gwyneth Paltrow’s brand Goop continues its sustained drive into the pleasure product/sexual health market with the debut of the new Heartthrob vibrator.

“In the sex toy aisle, vibration is the most obvious (and abundant) feature out there,” a rep commented. “But it’s not the start and end of solo pleasure. So we designed our fourth vibrator with a powerful tapping head that oscillates in and out.”

The Heartthrob, the rep noted, was designed to feel “like drumming or flicking, and it’s a totally different sensation from vibration alone.

“Try it once and you’ll fall in love — that’s why we called it Heartthrob,” the rep said.

The waterproof Heartthrob is made of silicone and features two motors with vibrations and patterns adding up to 100 different sensation settings.

The vibrator, which retails at $98, features a “tapping tip,” which oscillates in and out.

“Turn it on and place it gently on the clitoris,” the rep advised. “If it feels too intense at first, start by running the tapping head over the external and internal labia and orbiting around the clit, rather than touching it directly. You can play with the tapping motor’s three speeds and seven patterns — cycle through and let them surprise you.”

The second, vibrating motor is described as “strong, rumbly and exactly what we’re looking for in a classic vibrating toy.”
