Work as a Performer

Heart Throb Marathon

High from an exhilarating night at the 2014 Feminist Porn Awards, three international porn stars from Los Angeles, San Francisco and Sydney wind up in Courtney Trouble’s hotel room in downtown Toronto with a raging libido and a BBC journalist.

Blissed out after taking home Heart Throb of the Year, Zahra Stardust pounces on Dominican porn star Wolf Hudsom and his toy boy James Darling, former feminist porn award winners, the three descending into a marathon fuck fest.

What follows is an onslaught of rimming, squirting, double-fisting, cunnilingus, fellatio, foot worship, strap-ons and wet smouldering make-outs, all before a polite journalist rapidly taking notes.

In Zahra’s first boy-girl and Wolf’s first girl-FTM-threesome scenes, these three have their way with each other and leave nothing sacred.

This long awaited scene, reported as world news, features outstanding and electric performances on a very special night of the year.

 

Fuck Dolls

Erica Rand, in her book Barbie’s Queer Accessories, examines the ways in which Barbie ‘can be subversively refunctioned for women’s pleasure.’ She examines how ‘wholesome’, ‘family-oriented’ Barbie is deliberately subverted by what consumers do with her in practice. Fuck Dolls brings Barbie to life. Playmates Emerald and Zahra, two life sized dolls, awake from slumber amidst an entourage of topless and semi-clothed Barbies and Kens who turn out to be perverts, voyeurs and foot fetishists. These dolls – both plastic and flesh – are playful not passive. They bend each other over, dive into latex, plunge head first into a strap-on, fuck each other’s face and pull each other’s hair. Barbies get wet, Ken gets pummelled, and a gallery of femmes receive a hot homo-erotic boy-on-boy display. Fuck Dolls imbues Barbie with alternative understandings, new readings and queer feminist counter-practices, and delivers some explosive orgasms on the journey.
