LOS ANGELES — Lexi Luna is the latest guest on the “Deep Thots” podcast, hosted by Ray Ray.
During the episode, Luna shares her industry insights and tips on staying healthy, among other topics.
“This is probably my least stressful year,” she said. “You have to decide what the most important things are for you to get done and allow some things to just not get done. It’s impossible to do everything you want to do; you just have to let some things go.”

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Harry Sparks has announced the release of his erotic horror novel, “Scissors,” which is now available through his new online storefront, The Sparks Archive.

The novel follows a series of terrifying events connected to a mysterious clown known as Scissors, blending psychological suspense, erotica, slasher horror, and supernatural elements into a dark, unsettling narrative.
“‘Scissors’ represents an important step in expanding the story beyond the screen,” said Sparks. “The novel allows readers to experience the world and characters in a deeper way while building anticipation for future entries in the franchise.”

LOS ANGELES — Queer/trans porn studio AORTA films has unveiled an official website for its second feature, “Haunted.”
Written by Carmen Maria Machado, “Haunted” is an erotic thriller that explores how ghosts of the queer community’s past, including the AIDS crisis, echo in present-day queer and trans sex. The story follows filmmakers Sam, Jane, and June as they collaborate on their latest project, but the team can’t quite agree whether they’re researching queer legacies of loss or looking for literal ghosts.
“A lustful, trickster spirit disrupts the already tense situation with a psychosexual haunting more visceral and terrifyingly ecstatic than anyone could imagine,” the synopsis reveals.
AORTA’s Creative Director, Mahx Capacity, enthused about the project.
“Queer porn goes beyond a niche of the mainstream adult industry and is a fundamentally different genre,” said Capacity. “For queer people, porn is (and always was) liberatory political praxis — a place where the community’s joy, grief, struggle, celebration, and history are synthesized into an embodied, cathartic practice.”
As “Haunted” embarks on the festival circuit, AORTA will release seven recut scenes from the narrative and present them as standalone erotic short films beginning in October. The monthly premieres will lead up to the 2027 debut of the full feature film on the studio’s website.
MIAMI — DD White stars with Mr. Majic in her latest LoyalFans clip, titled “A Full Service Resort.”
The clip opens with White as a uniformed maid waiting to offer herself as a special prize gift to guest Majic.
“I had so much fun with this scene because the setup is simple, sexy, and very easy to enjoy,” said White. “He thinks he’s won an apartment, then walks in and finds me waiting there as part of the package. I loved getting to be cute, naughty, and fully in on the surprise from the second he opened the door.”
LOS ANGELES — Vanniall is featured in a new interview article in La Voix du X magazine.
In the interview by Pierre Des Esseintes, Vanniall opens up about Studio Vanniall, creator independence, and the politics of being seen, among other topics.
“It’s often said that visibility is a double-edged sword, and that’s absolutely true,” said Vanniall. “For many trans people, especially given the political climate in the United States, more visibility can mean more danger.”
“To last in the porn industry, it’s not enough to be the sexiest all the time,” she added. “You need a business plan.”
LOS ANGELES — Kasbh Inc., which operates Kasbh Studios and Krazy Winter Nights (KWN), has launched a STD Hero promotional campaign.
According to a rep, guests of Kasbh lifestyle events will receive 10 percent back on the cost of their tickets at check-in if they present STD Hero test results dated between seven and 14 days prior to the event.
“We don’t just want to encourage testing; we want to back it up with action,” said Kasbh Inc. President Kole K. Snodgrass. “If we want the lifestyle to keep getting safer, then we have to keep finding practical ways to make that happen. Our hope is simple — that more people make testing and sharing results part of their normal routine before play.”
