About Last Night

Last night I bobbed nobs - I mean hobnobbed - with some of the porn industry's hottest stars.? Well, maybe they weren't the hottest stars in the biz; I don't know straight porn stars because I don't watch straight porn. I - as I had pointed out to me by Brandi "with an I not an IE or a Y" - am a "fruitcake."
Inside the Laemmle's Sunset-5 lobby, where the original Deep Throat was sneak-premiering prior to its limited rerelease, a man was giving out red roses to all the ladies, and copies of the Deep Throat DVD and posters to everyone else.? The man was not Gerard Damiano - the film's director was not in attendance. I pushed through the lobby full of silicon, Lycra, and high heels and headed for my seat. Three porn stars took seats next to mine.? (I learned later they were Eva Angelina, Tommy Gunn, and Sunny Lane.)? As the film started to play, the audience cheered, then broke into applause for Harry Reems' and Linda Lovelace's names when they appeared on the screen.? About midway through the film, I felt my seat sort of moving rhythmically.? Oh this is comfy, I thought.? When did they put in vibrating seats?? Then I realized it was sweet sweet Sunny Lane working over Tommy Gunn's weapon.? She jerked it for a while, but I don't think the scene of Linda enjoying Coca-Cola from her own vagina inspired Tommy to finish his performance.
After the movie, there were a couple of PSAs - one from Deep Throat's director Gerard Damiano - but everyone headed out to the lobby to sip bad champagne, chat up the porn stars, and tuck a few more DVDs and posters under their arms.? I talked to some of the porn stars for the WOW Report (watch the clip) then left laden with swag. This fruitcake's Christmas shopping is done and it's only February.
