Grand Jury Indicts Ron Jeremy on Multiple Sexual Assault Counts

LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón announced today that a grand jury had indicted Ron Jeremy “on more than 30 sexual assault counts involving 21 victims dating back more than two decades.”

“Far too often, survivors of sexual assault suffer in isolation,” District Attorney Gascón said through a statement this afternoon. “We must ensure that survivors have all options available to help with recovery, including trauma-informed services for healing and support to report such crimes.”

XBIZ broke the news on August 16 that a grand jury had been meeting in Los Angeles to hear the state’s case against Jeremy.

The indictment was returned August 19, and was unsealed today.

Today Jeremy pled not guilty to “12 counts of forcible rape, seven counts of forcible oral copulation, six counts of sexual battery by restraint, four counts of sexual penetration by a foreign object, two counts of sexual penetration of an unconscious or asleep person and one count each of lewd act upon a child under the age of 14 or 15, sodomy by use of force and assault with intent to commit rape.”

He is scheduled to return to court on October 12 for a pretrial conference.

PASS Lifts Precautionary Production Hold

LOS ANGELES — A precautionary production hold announced by PASS on Saturday after learning a performer within the system had tested positive for HIV has been lifted.

PASS has received the test results for the first-generation contacts of the performer who tested positive last week. All tests are negative, and beyond the window of potential transmission. The production hold is lifted immediately.

We appreciate the efforts of all involved, particularly the performer who worked diligently during an incredibly difficult time to identify any contacts within the industry. As a community, it is essential that we continue to protect the privacy of the performer, and provide whatever support and compassion we can.

Thank you to all who observed the hold and for helping ensure the safety of all performers.

Bellesa Debuts New Reality-Based Series ‘Bellesa Blind Date’

Bellesa Debuts New Reality-Based Series 'Bellesa Blind Date'

LOS ANGELES — Bellesa has introduced new reality-based series “Bellesa Blind Date,” available exclusively on the Bellesa Plus streaming service from director Jacky St. James.

A rep described “Bellesa Blind Date” as “a concept that takes authenticity and ‘whatever happens on camera happens’ even further. While ‘Bellesa House’ pairs performers who request to work with each other, ‘Blind Date’ does exactly what its name implies — porn blind dates.”

The concept “maintains that same raw, authentic feel that ‘Bellesa House’ captures so seamlessly but flips it on its head,” noted the rep. “When performers arrive on set, they have no idea who they will be working with that day. With the high volume of performer pairing requests received from ‘Bellesa House,’ ‘Blind Date’ is able to cast talent who genuinely want to work together — all without them knowing [ahead of time].”

The performers are “separated by a wall without any clue as to who is sitting on the other side,” the rep continued. “Headphones and voice changers are used to hide their identities while they speak to one another anonymously, sharing their desires and fantasies free of all inhibitions before getting to have sex with their date.”

St. James enthused that she has “never seen this kind of excitement and tension on a porn set.”

“They have zero idea who they’re working with that day. The level of intrigue this brings is unmatched,” she added. “It’s also just an incredibly fun experience for the performers, different from anything else.”

She noted the experience provides a glimpse into an adult performer’s sexual experience when there is no performance.

“We get to see how they navigate ‘do’s’ and ‘don’ts,’ and get to know their partner before even seeing who they are,” St James said. “Performers genuinely love working with Bellesa. There’s nothing more inspiring than stripping away all the requirements of standard sex scenes and watching two performers actually connect in the most authentic way.”

CEO and Founder Michelle Shnaidman described how “every single thing” from the studio is “data-driven. And the Bellesa community has made it increasingly clear — they love reality porn. They love authentic, unscripted, real-life sex.”

“Porn that is rooted in reality and shines a light on the performers’ experiences — working with performers that they’re comfortable with, wearing what they want and having sex they genuinely enjoy — is the future of porn, and continues to establish a new frontier for ethics in the industry,” Shnaidman said.
