MINNEAPOLIS — Carnal Media has added Reece Scott to its roster of exclusive performers.

The Wisconsin native made his Carnal debut last October.

“I always fantasized about being in porn, didn’t plan on it; last summer a friend took some photos and sent them to Carnal to see what would happen,” he enthused. “I’m a bit older, so I didn’t figure people would be interested. I honestly did not expect them to call. I really didn’t set out to do it, it just happened — it’s a fantasy that’s come true”

Carnal CMO Alan Breslaw praised the studio’s newest contract star.

“We are so excited to add Reece to our roster of hot exclusive models,” he said. “He is a beautiful man inside and out, and we couldn’t be more excited that he will be on our team exclusively.”

LOS ANGELES — Performer Uncut James was arrested Thursday by LAPD for attempted murder after an incident earlier in the week involving content creator Flesh Mechanic.

An LAPD public information officer confirmed their arrest of James — who has also spelled his name “Uncut Jaymes” — to XBIZ, although neither the PIO nor court records could confirm that James had been arraigned or charged by the District Attorney with that crime as of Friday morning.

James’s agency until this week, Hussie Models, released a statement to XBIZ stating, “We no longer represent Uncut James.”

James has shot over 45 scenes since joining the industry in 2022, according to his IAFD page.

His alleged victim, Flesh Mechanic, published a short video on Tuesday on X.com, which appears to show the aftermath of the incident.

Flesh Mechanic also posted his version of the events the same day on X.com, without naming Jaymes: “Hello guys, while I was on my motorcycle today a fellow performer was waiting for me to leave the driveway, struck me with a truck, twice, tried to put a ski mask on, exited the truck wearing rubber gloves holding a golf club, struck me with the golf club, and I defended my life. There were multiple witnesses, this person left in an ambulance, and will be going to jail. I am currently at urgent care, I am going to be canceling my collabs this week, I apologize to everyone. Apparently I worked with this persons ex-girlfriend and that’s why he told me he was attacking me.

“After I defended myself and stopped this person from attacking further, this is what he told me, I stayed in this position until the police arrived. Thank you so much to all of the neighbors who saw and recorded this. They found a hammer in his truck also.”

James’ LASD inmate arrest does not show any upcoming court dates as of Friday morning.

XBIZ will continue updating this report as more reliable information becomes available.

VANCOUVER, B.C. — Utherverse Digital has launched a pre-sale for membership packages for its Utherverse.io metaverse platform.

These Membership Packages include metaverse real estate, up to 180,000 Uther ($UTHX) tokens, early beta testing opportunities and more.

A rep described Utherverse.io as the culmination of 30 years of CEO Brian Shuster’s work in internet technology and commerce.

“From the earliest days of recognizing the commercial potential of the web and founding the first Internet advertising company, to developing essential tech underpinning virtually all of today’s social media and online interactions, Shuster’s vision has always been ahead of its time,” the rep noted. “With 19 years of operational excellence, Utherverse’s new venture is set to leverage Shuster’s depth of experience, extensive background and patented innovations in steering the launch of a new kind of immersive 3D virtual world Internet that could only be realized through decades of pioneering work in the sector.”

Shuster said, “In launching this presale, we’re not just introducing a new product — we’re inviting users into a world shaped by a legacy of innovation. From introducing the very first banner ads to combating predatory online dangers with Cleanet, my aim has always been to enhance the online experience, and Utherverse’s new metaverse platform is a culmination of that work in a truly unparalleled virtual environment.”
