“Hola! Besos!” says Regina Ice. My Spanish isn’t that good, so I missed the fact that she was sending me kisses and instead thought she thought I was Mexican.

“Pesos?” I said. Whatever you need, I’ll get it…

We watch for a while, entranced by Ocean’s rhythmically slapping folds, thinking of the planet Solaris with its sentient ocean (perhaps that’s why she chose her name?), but then need drives us outside.

You can’t have a boner in Barcelona without first looking at the Torre Agbar.

The building, which even its architect said is “phallic,” rises above Barcelona’s financial district and, in the five years since its completion, has been top on the list of Barcelona’s most recognized places.

That is why El Torre takes up a significant place on the cover of this movie. (The tower has a similarly-shaped counterpart in London that locals call “The Gherkin”).

“Barcelona Sex Secrets” was shot over several long days, one of which featured a romp atop a motorcycle with Lucy Belle. The movie’s only actual shot of the Torre Agbar comes when co-star Andrea Moranti, who performs the crowd-pleasing trick of walking around with a towel on his dick, takes a smoke break on the roof with the un-toweled Torre behind him.

Belle demonstrates what a pro she is in this movie, claiming preference for the doggie position (“I think this is best,” she says), but never getting much of a chance to do it in the crowded motorcycle shop. Finally she and Moranti work something out.

It is the final night of the production and director Vendetta is trying to corral a punch-drunk cast who can’t stop laughing. And it’s not a sex scene; it is a dinner party scene.

“Venga!,” says Vendetta (“Come on!”) and the scene finally wraps after several extra interruptions. The actual sex scene was shot earlier in the day, but we get to see it following the dinner scene by virtue of studio magic.

But in real time, outside the Torre Agbar glows blue with frustration.

“There are lots of beautiful girls here,” she says, “and I like to relax rather than compete.”

Carina is barefoot and wearing sweatpants, a far cry from the high-heeled and glammed up persona she projects in most of her movies (unless they are filmed on a beach, in which case the heels must come off).

Flying under the radar is how Carina has built up an impressive resume of movies – more than 100 of them, and many for Private – in a porn career that has lasted longer than many of her contemporaries.

Carina got into porn in 2002 when she was 19 and her work has ranged from glamorous Euro-lesbian endeavors to hardcore interracial ho-downs.

“I can’t say which I prefer…” says Carina.

But it’s interesting to watch Carina in a lipstick lesbian movie like “Supercharged High-Speed Sex,” in which she gets down with Liliane Tiger in a Maserati on a helipad, or in “Lesbian Disturbia,” which finds her in a bewigged bondage threesome, and then watch her in a movie like “Beauties in the Tropix,” where she delivers a beach blowjob that is both wholesome and masterful.

She looks so natural in all those scenarios that we asked what her actual preference was.

“If I’m blowing you one day, then that is what my preference is,” Carina says.

Well, what are you doing today?

We are not really aware of a destination in this Vaginal Mystery Tour, as getting there is the thing that’s important.

Director: JF Romagnoli
Starring: Amy Cameron, Gilda Roberts, Jasmine Black, Simony Diamond, Linda Brown, Black Angelika, Jasmine Rouge, Louise Black

Scene 1: B/G/G/G

Our journey begins with a tasteful bang as the lucky groom of Black Angelika shares his new bride with her two bridesmaids and the bus driver careens through the streets of Budapest drinking champagne.

I’m not saying that Sex Bus drivers are menaces on the road; I’m just saying that, unless it is you fucking Black Angelika, there is no reason to be on the road.

Scene 2: B/G

The ancient scrolls describe Scene 2, featuring the delicious Linda Brown, thusly:

Down in at the mechanics Linda Brown needs her oil changing, she needs some lubrication to get her engine running, that the mechanic can get his gear stick into her gaping asshole!

You might say, “But where’s the bus?” and I would reply, “You do not have your priorities in order.”

Scene 3: B/B/G

Simony Diamond comforts two weary travelers who have missed the Sex Bus. How does she comfort them? By stripping to her high heels and blowing them through the bars of a cage.

I missed at least three buses on my recent trip to Hungary, but not once was I given a blowjob for it. Maybe it’s because I don’t speak Magyar.

Scene 4: B/G

Jasmine Black is in a loving and committed relationship with the bus driver. Despite this, she is jealous of the goings-on on his bus. To show her disapproval, she wears his hat and fucks him.

Perhaps you are thinking, “If everyone resolved conflicts like Jasmine Black, there would be word peace.”

That’s right, my friend. But since there’s not enough of Jasmine Black to go around, I’d like to give her a peace prize personally.

Scene 5: B/G

Oh, Gilda Roberts. With your tiny breasts and ladylike white stockings, you are too refined for a Sex Bus. That is why you deliver tasteful pantsless lapdances at clubs.

Scene 6: B/G

My favorite scene features Amy Cameron. Many of us have imagined fucking a stranger on a bus, train, airplane, zeppelin, or hydrofoil, but the sinful Ms. Cameron is up for the job.

Don’t get me wrong – she’s not easy; she waits a full minute as her anonymous partner rubs his dick over her tits before she finally starts blowing him. That is because she is a Lady. Leave the quickies for the ice cream truck, I always say.

It is a blustery day on yet another beach Private has commandeered for the sole purpose of loosing beauties born behind the Iron Curtain to grind their perfumed, taut, and suntanned asses onto eager animate or inanimate surfaces.

At first I wondered at Sandra’s athleticism as she stuck her ass toward me and pointed her small breasts seaward.

“How does she do it?” I thought. “She looks like she should be mounted on a ship.”

But really, it would be fun to mount her anywhere.

Savvy cameramen catch Angelina Love as she masturbates on the beach while another trio fucks on a piece of driftwood.

“I can’t help it,” she says. “You’d do it too!”

But the tenderest moment comes as Regina Moore is getting her asshole sanded while Annamaria Santos stands by with a bottle of lube.

“it’s her first anal scene for Private,” says Santos.

“So she needs to prepare a little bit?”

“She needs.”

As the sunlight fades, Sandra gets in the water for her cover shoot. She points her ass into the surf as wave after wave crashes into it.

“Brava,” del Mar said.

Screening Party Affirms Success of An Open Invitation: A Real Swingers Party in San Francisco

There was standing room only during Saturday night’s screening party for Private Media Group’s An Open Invitation: A Real Swingers Party in San Francisco at Club Kiss in San Francisco, a testament to the buzz that’s been surrounding the film since its June 17th release.

The July 17th soiree commenced with a one hour panel discussion on the contemporary swinging lifestyle, lead by “An Open Invitation” director Ilana Rothman and leading actress India Summer, as well as Club Kiss hosts and “An Open Invitation” cast members Sarah and Chris Kiss, and Carol Queen, grand dame of San Francisco’s progressive sex scene.

While introducing the panel, Carol Queen expressed that “An Open Invitation” brought her back to the golden ages, where adult cinema was vying for a place alongside mainstream cinema.

Club Kiss noted that they’d never seen so many people attend a discussion panel, and while the event was at capacity, several guests commented that they wished the panel had gone on longer. A full screening of the movie followed the panel presentation, as well as an incredible after party, where couples who were talking about modern relationships only moments before were able to jump in and experience them.

The party moved into full swing with pole dancing, goodies distributed by Good Vibrations, and the stunning Ilana Rothman, along with several other cast and party attendees, mingling with guests. Kelly Moe, the musician responsible for the “An Open Invitation” soundtrack, was also performing live at the event. Moe’s music earned “An Open Invitation” an AVN nomination for Best Movie Soundtrack.

Mainstream news outlets were also impressed, with the New York Times, USA Today, and Reality Check TV conducting extensive interviews with the cast and creators of the movie.

“The party was amazing – a huge success,” commented the “An Open Invitation” creator, Andrew Sullivan. “People actually came up to me afterwards, saying they wished the discussion had gone on longer. When has that ever happened at an adult screening?”

“An Open Invitation: A Real Swingers Party in San Francisco” has taken the industry by storm this year, finding resonance with a community left relatively unexplored in contemporary adult entertainment. Pre-nominated for a momentous 13 AVN awards and given AVN’s highest rating, the movie has already leapt to #1 on Gamelink’s VOD site with record setting sales.

Bliss Fusion also screened the movie at its weekend event in las Vegas 14-17th July to great feedback from it’s 2,000 attendees.

An Open Invitation catapulted into the top 10 at number 10 in AVNs July Top 100 Sales & Rentals DVD charts.

“I travel to the United States, to Prague, to Budapest – everywhere – from here,” said Rossi, who has appeared in more than 200 films, many of them for Private, including two editions of “The Private Life of Claudia Rossi,” “A Fucking Christmas Dinner,” and (my favorite) “Ass Riders.”

“London is an international city,” she said. “Plus my boyfriend is here…”

Her boyfriend of two years is performer Jay Snakes.

Rossi does not see any problem in letting her fans know that she is in a relationship. She does not feel it compromises fans’ false notion of her “accessibility.”

“Fans are smarter than that,” she said. “I’m also sure they’d like to know that I’m happy. Not only that, but Jay is in the porn business as well, and understands what my job is.”

Rossi sees porn as a way to travel, to experience new things, and to show off.

“Even though I am naked on film, I am not an exhibitionist, really,” she said. “But there is  apart of me that is an exhibitionist, and I am very lucky to have the opportunity to show that off safely, with people paying me!”

Such is the boxcover copy of “Barcelona Sex Secrets,” which also features a picture of what appears to be an ancient thermonuclear device disappearing between the legs of the deliriously tasty Regina Ice.

Come with us as we detail the lives and loves of seven international pornstresses who find themselves fitting their lips around both Spanish and semen.

Director: Johnny Vendetta
Starring: Lucy Belle, Priva, Jandi Lin, Silvia Rubi, Aletta Ocean, Regina Ice

Scene 1: B/G

This 7-scene epic set in Private’s home town is as lighthearted as it is hardcore. Why do I say this? Because the first sex scene is in a kitchen, and we know that that room is the most erogenous one in the house.

Tall Regina Ice could probably be as aloof as her name suggests, but after her boyfriend clears the table she shows him her gratitude at not being dismissed as a domestic servant with tits by fucking the shit out of him on the kitchen floor. Which she has, of course, kept clean.

Scene 2: B/G

Personal favorite Aletta Ocean dispels the myth that no one works in hedonistic Barcelona by choosing to fuck near a desk. This suggests that barcelonés at least tolerate the idea of working.

Scene 3: G/G

But of course people work in Barcelona. In fact, people even come from other countries to work there. Case in point: the next scene features Ocean in her side occupation as a bartender. She approaches Regina Ice, who says:

“Vere you vaiting for me?”

“Vhat,” Ocean asks, “do you zink?”

Then, despite the fact that Ocean appears to be the only bartender working in a crowded saloon, the two adjourn to a private billiard room to fuck on the pool table.

Scene 4: B/B/G

How does one woo a potential employee in Barcelona’s litigious workplace environment?

If one is the swarthy television producer intent on bringing Lucy Belle to his project, one takes her out to a fancy dinner and then gets one’s friend to help fuck her on the dining room table.

Scene 5: B/G

My favorite scene involves Silvia Rubi, the tattooed minx I’m happy to be seeing for the first time. Rubi shows up at a photo studio and wastes no time displaying the “Barcelona” tattoo written upside down across her belly, as if she is suggesting you 69 her in order to read it correctly.

All right, Silvia Rubi. If you insist.

Scene 6: B/G/G

In this centerpiece scene, Private superstar Priva and tattooed American vixen Jandi Lin service Regina Ice’s cheating boyfriend. Watched out of context, of course, you would never get the impression that he doesn’t deserve the attention of these Asian beauties.

But then, who are we to judge? Good for you, pal.

Scene 7: B/G

Finally, our aspiring actress, Lucy Belle, returns to her boyfriend’s motorcycle shop to celebrate her audition. Didd she get the part? Will she become famous? Will her dreams be realized?

We are not sure. What we are certain of is that she is fucked next to an orange motorcycle, after which her boyfriend excuses himself to take a shower.

What this tells me is that, in Barcelona, endings are ambiguous. That is why I choose to go right up the middle.

Then there’s Ibiza.

The great thing about being “backstage” for three days on “Ibiza Fucking Island,” first of all, is that you are on a fucking island.

This changes everything, as everyone involved, cast and crew alike, relax. There are no other obligations than to shoot the movie. Performers even bring bathing suits they don’t need high heels for.

“This is more vacation than work,” said Gilda Roberts, whose first scene, a night-time poolside frolic, sets the tone for the movie. “If I had the choice, I would be fucking by the pool anyway.”

Tarra White is a veteran of Private movies and knows her way around a beach.

“You see that I get sand on my pussy but not in my pussy,” she said. Hold on. Let me look closer…

Jane Darling is also experienced with sex outside, and she took a pragmatic approach to the working vacation.

“I can work on my tan when I’m not getting fucked,” she said. “When I am getting fucked, then I must be very smart with my sunscreen. Because it is very hot under the sun and the lights.”

No, Jane Darling, you are very hot.

While many European porn stars travel to America for a few months each year due to the availability of work in Southern California, few move there. Rebeca Linares has lived in Los Angeles for long stretches of time and is one of Europe’s most popular exports in the United States, with her vulva just ahead of the Volvo.

“Of course it is very different from Spain,” Linares said, “but the beaches and the sun are familiar. There is also a lot of Spanish speakers from Mexico. Still, I don’t know about this food…”

Linares has a special appeal in America because she has a “girl next door” quality, because Americans are eternally conflicted about sex, and they like to believe that the wholesome and virginal “girl next door” is really a huge slut who fucks only them.

“I don’t understand that concept,” Linares admits. “But I’m glad it helps, I think.”

See how quickly Linares assimilates into California culture in “Cheating Hollywood Wives.”

Linares also holds her own among the exotic porn beauties of Europe, being one of the few Spaniards in a group that heavily favors Hungary and the Czech Republic.

“It is a smaller group of girls that is spread out over a whole continent,” Linares said of the European porn community. “And in California there are hundreds of girls in a small area.”

Linares got into porn in 2005, introduced to the business by a friend of a friend of Nacho Vidal, and has appeared in dozens of movies since, many of them for Spain’s own Private.

Though Linares is a pleasure to watch in person and she is great at her job, sometimes I see the international attraction engaging in extra performances for people she is not interested in talking to.

“It is true,” Linares said, in perfect, San Sebastian-accented English. “Sometimes I pretend I don’t speak your language.”

Director: Moire(*)Candy
Starring: Keana Moire, Carol, Rose, Joycen, Ariel, Jenny M.

We follow the Czech glamazon Moire through the casting process of her “Girl Girl Studio,” in which she imposes her will on willing participants.

See? A victimless crime.

Scene 1: G/G

Moire surprises young Joycen in the tub, plying her with champagne and then, as is the case whenever champagne is drunk, eating her pussy and manipulating her with a dildo. Consistent with the theme, Moire herself has champagne glass tits. Fantastic!

The lesson we learn from this is: Drink more champagne.

Scene 2: G/G

It’s like therapy, but in a 90′s cigarette commercial. Enchanting Jenny M. stops by Keana’s place and the two recline on some immaculate white couches. Both are so blonde that they almost disappear.

It presents a serious existential question: If both are so blonde that they represent the absence of darkness, who is being fucked?

Scene 3: G/G

It is by this point in the film that we realize something that was probably apparent to more astute observers long ago: Keana likes blondes.

In this scene we meet Rose, whose name is a good match for her delicate, petal-like, and pink pussy. They frolic through hidden passageways before falling into bed together. This scene is Moire’s most playful. Is it because Rose is so blonde that she loses her aggression?

Scene 4: G/G

Just when we thought Moire was a blondes-only slob, in walks Ariel who, like the Disney character, is red-headed and begging to get fucked. There, I said it.

Not that blondes aren’t delightful and useful for a thousand household purposes, it is nice to see red and white together, like the flag of Canada, but with vulvas instead of maple leaves.

Scene 5: G/G

The final scene is literally smoking, as our heroines, Keana and Carol, must compete with a cigarette for each other’s affections.

An argument can be made that cigarettes are sexy (and they are – they also make one look grown up and cool). If anything, when one’s partner is smoking whilst one eats her out, the net effect is so much better than if one’s partner were, say, texting.

You will not see a lot of variety in this movie, but you will see a lot of Keana Moire getting her fill of all her blonde conquests. And we only want Moire.
