Ok, I am finally going to reply to this.... DONKEY PUNCH was the most
brutal, depressing, scarey scene that I have ever done. I have tried
to block it out from my memory due to the severe abuse I recieved during
the filming. I had been made to believe that the scene was going to
be more sex, penetration, and rough as opposed to being 'beat up' with
a few penetrations. The guy, Steve French has a natural hatred towards
women in the sense that he has always been known to be more brutal than
EVER needed. I agreed to do the scene thinking it was less beating,
except the 'punch' in the head. If you noticed, steve had worn his solid
gold ring the entire time, and continued to punch me with it. I actually
stopped the scene while it was being filmed because I was in too much
pain. I begged for him to remove the ring but he refused. That almost
made me walk off the set and say 'fuck it'. I sucked it up and wanted
to finish so i would be paid. Witht he ring on his hand still, we continued
the scene.
**Now i am not sure how much you all know about me, but I have had
some major surgeries on my head. One was on the lower back right of
my skull.... The doctor never replaced the bone there because it grows
back on its own. It had been several years since that surgery, and i
now have grown a strong cartilage in place of my missing bone.
I had specifically explained that Steve could not hit that spot, and
that anywhere else on my head was fine. I explained this to him as well,
showing him on my head the places. He acknowledged the request of mine.
As the pop happened he punched me several times in the head. Exactly
where he was told not to. He did it with the ring on too.
*You can hear me scream in pain 'wrong side! ow, ow, wrong side!' in
the movie and trailer. I had to re-do the pop shot/donkey punch for
'better footage' while in pain, and he wore the damn ring again. At
the end of my scene they had me sit on the couch with the directors
and explain that I was ok and was willing to do the scene.
I was in tears I sincerely hope that no one enjoys that scene. I want
to cry when I think about it.
Steven French should
be in jail - not in porn?

writes on ADT: "How about throwing the director in there with
him for allowing the brutality to continue. And the producer too, for
thinking of such a concept. This is not rough sex delivered in the heat
of passion. Just a calculated assault. Some people have no shame."

Aaron Clark responds to a "that's debatable" post:
That's debatable. " No, it's not. Unless you think whether people should
freely sit around & watch snuff movies is somehow a debatable issue.
Or think that aggravated assault is somehow a "debatable issue."
It just amazes me how many of you turn off your brains -- & any sense
of decency -- once the blood starts flowing to your dicks (or clits,
not to leave out the self-hating, mysogynist women out there who have
learned to love & emulate their torturers). Glad it's all academic to
you from your armchair, bub.
I suspect that when most pornographers get angry about the abuse of women
in porn, it's not the abuse of women in porn that's primarily at issue.
It's the opportunity to vent on others the hatred they have for their
own jobs. Porn
sex is a full contact sport and people get hurt, physically and emotionally.
What Vivid Video, David Clark, Rob
Black, and Khan Tusion have in common is far more than what any of
them have in common with non-porn producers of entertainment.

I know Steven, have worked several times with him, and never had a
problem. Very sweet guy. I don't know Alex on the other hand, although
I've heard crazy stories about her being locked in a bathroom for half
hour on set, doing drugs and being out of her mind. I'm not saying it's
true - just what I heard, and we know how gossip goes sometimes. I've
been, on a director's side, in a situation where the girl I was shooting
went through a really strong scene, never complained during it, smiled
and asked for more, and after the shoot it was a whole different story.
She basically blamed me for not respecting her limits (hello, you know
you can say stop when you dont like something?) blamed me for letting
her drink on set (when she showed up on my set at 9 am with an almost
empty bottle of wine) etc... So I'm kind of weirded out by that story.
It'd be interesting to ask the director what exactly happened. Sometimes
girls tend to make up or exaggerate stories. Seen it more than a couple
of times. Fortunately, there's always the unedited original tape, and/or
witnesses.
Holly writes: "Is that legal? I guess technically it would be the
same as a girl getting her ass spanked in a video, but brutal scenes like
these are what attract unwanted attention from anti-porn advocates, dont'cha
think? Hearing about a video like that makes me understand why some people
hate porn so much, and I hate being associated with something like that
via industry name."
The legality of any kind of porn is up to community standards, including
this kind. |
