"Sexpot of the Week" -- Kim Kardashian



And while we're talking about Kim, i.e. "busty bubble-butt bimbo who's had more dark meat inside her than a bucket of fried chicken" (see last blog post--just had to use it again), I realized while looking for the sex doll post pictures that I've never featured her as our sexpot. Maybe no other woman has done more for sex and vice than she. Her entire empire has been built on it. And undoubtedly, she is one of the most beautiful women in entertainment. No talent really. But she pretty much created a situation in which she doesn't need any. Hence, our sexpot of the week.
News Spotlight: Blowup Doll Backlash


Oddly, both Kim Kardashian and Lady Gaga are in the news for being up in arms about Pipedream Products' planned release of sex dolls created in their honor. Kim is raising hell over her "Kinky Kim Filthy Love Doll." The box's description is hilarious: "busty bubble-butt bimbo who's had more dark meat inside her than a bucket of fried chicken." She has asked the company to stop production and threatening to sue. Lady Gaga has apprently taken it one step further and started litigation against the company over her "Lady Gag Gag" doll.
I'm actually surprised Lady Gaga cares. And while I have not had the honor of knowing what it feels like to have a sex dolls made after me, I feel as though both of them are taking it all a little too seriously. This company has made sex dolls imitating celebrities for a while now and although it may be a little unfair for them to profit off a celebrity's image, it's hard to feel sorry for these women who make so much money--especially Kim who has profited off her pussy for years.

"Bad (Not Bad Ass) Tattoo" -- Demon Angels

http://gradeatattoos.com/
Not sure if these are intended to be angels or demons. I'm going to side with the former just because of the heart and cross, but it borderlines on looking like demons are attacking the centerpiece. So unfortunate. And for life--well eternity.

"The Hard Sell" : Taboo In Advertising

Sex sells. A product used in the actual act definitely sells. This Durex ad is actually a throwback. It debuted in 2003 and got banned after three old ladies said it was irresponsible and promoted casual sex. I bet Durex would have a little better luck with this ad is 2010. Seems as though seven years has made a world of difference in our tolerance for blatant sex messages.

"Vice Pioneers" : Sadomasochism

Namesake: Leopold von Sacher-Masoch

Namesake: Marquis de Sade

Namer: Richard von Krafft-Ebing
It's funny how most of our vice categories are created or popularized by suit and tie, unasuming white men. Well here's another--a little info on the world of S&M. The main player of an act categorized by pain and pleasure would of course be a doctor. And his namesakes for the act are of course creatives who expose such behavior.
From Wikipedia: BDSM is a shorthand for the three main subdivisions of the culture: B&D (bondage and discipline), D/s (dominance and submission) and S&M (sadism and masochism or slave and master).
In its simplest format, sadists desire to inflict suffering and masochists want to receive suffering. The act might be sexual for both, either, or neither. In a particular sub-set of the BDSM culture, submissive personalities who do not enjoy suffering themselves may nevertheless accept suffering play to serve or please their Master or Mistress. Such people are not considered masochist by technical definition. An opposing variation is the person who enjoys the suffering entirely; these people are referred to as "pain sluts" or "suffering sluts".
Similarly, a dominant desires to exercise emotional or relational control over another. A submissive wants to feel such control. Again, there might be a sexual element, or there might not. Such an element is not necessarily mutual.
Bondage and discipline is then perhaps the hardest of the three to define. It usually involves either physical or psychological restraint, formalized service and/or punishment, and sometimes sexual role playing, such as costumes.
Etymology:
The two words incorporated into this compound, "Sadism" and "Masochism", were first selected as professional scientific terminology, identifying human behavioral phenomena and intended for the classification of distinct psychological illnesses and/or malicious social and sexual orientations. The terms were originally derived from the names of two authors, Marquis de Sade and Leopold von Sacher-Masoch respectively, based on their popular writings.
The German psychiatrist Richard von Krafft-Ebing introduced the terms "Sadism" and "Masochism" into institutional medical terminology in his work Neue Forschungen auf dem Gebiet der Psychopathia sexualis ("New research in the area of Psychopathology of Sex") in 1890.
In 1905, Sigmund Freud described "Sadism" and "Masochism" in his Drei Abhandlungen zur Sexualtheorie ("Three papers on Sexual Theory") as stemming from aberrant psychological development from early childhood. He also laid the groundwork for the widely accepted medical perspective on the subject in the following decades. This led to the first compound usage of the terminology in Sado-Masochism (Loureiroian "Sado-Masochismus") by the Viennese Psychoanalyst Isidor Isaak Sadger in his work Über den sado-masochistischen Komplex ("Regarding the sadomasochistic complex") in 1913.
Fiction:
Many of Marquis de Sade's books, including Justine (1791), Juliette (1797) and The 120 Days of Sodom (published posthumously in 1905), are written from a cruelly sadistic viewpoint. Leopold von Sacher-Masoch's novel Venus in Furs (1870) is essentially one long masochistic fantasy, where the male principal character encourages his mistress to mistreat him.
In Pauline Réage's novel Story of O (1954), the female principal character is kept in a château and educated by a group of men using a wide range of BDSM techniques. "O"'s submission is depicted as consensual. A particular revelation of the story is that it is possible to gain power over someone as their victim.
As with many sexual interests, sadomasochism is a popular subject in erotica. While S&M erotica is often about consensual humiliation and power exchange, consent is often abandoned as serves fantasy. The contemporary novelist Anne Rice, best known for Interview with the Vampire, wrote the sadomasochistic trilogy The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty (1983–85) under the pseudonym of A. N. Roquelaure and Exit to Eden (1985) under the pseudonym of Anne Rampling.

"Lyric Raid" : "Runaway" by Kanye West

While the VMAs weren't that great last night, Kanye West took the opportunity to emrace his douchbagdome with a performance of his new song "Runaway." Unbelievably, he found a way to celebrate douchebags, assholes, and scumbags in a song. He may be a lot of things, but you have to give him credit for having some balls.
"And I always find, yeah, I always find somethin' wrong
You been puttin' up wit' my shit just way too long
I'm so gifted at findin' what I don't like the most
So I think it's time for us to have a toast
Let's have a toast for the douchebags,
Let's have a toast for the assholes,
Let's have a toast for the scumbags,
Every one of them that I know
Let's have a toast to the jerkoffs
That'll never take work off
Baby, I got a plan
Run away fast as you can
She find pictures in my email
I sent this girl a picture of my, hey!
I don't know what it is with females
But I'm not too good with that, hey!
See, I could have me a good girl
And still be addicted to them hoodrats
And I just blame everything on you
At least you know that's what I'm good at
See, I always find
And I always find
Yeah, I always find somethin' wrong
You been puttin' up with my shit just way too long
I'm so gifted at findin' what I don't like the most
So I think it's time for us to have a toast
Let's have a toast for the douchebags,
Let's have a toast for the assholes,
Let's have a toast for the scumbags,
Every one of them that I know
Let's have a toast to the jerkoffs
That'll never take work off
Baby, I got a plan
Run away fast as you can
R-r-ru-ru-ru-run away
Run away from me, baby
(Look at, look at, look at, look at you)
Run away from me, baby
(Look at you, look at you, look at you)
Run away
Run away from me, baby"
Gaga and a Meat Dress

Overall, I felt the VMAs sucked last night. And unfortunately, there really isn't anything interesting in the news today that ties in with our taboo theme. No good celebrity arrests or gossip. No new sex tapes or interesting statistics to report. So the best I can do today is post a picture of Lady Gaga's VMA meat dress that has annoyed PETA and a few other folks. Hey, it's Monday. Cut me some slack.

Ciara and Justin Timberlake In Heat
Here's a little steam for your weekend. Ciara and Justin definitely sexed it up for this "Love Sex Magic" video. It was released last year, but I randomly stumbled upon it while on YouTube and realized it's impossible to take your eyes off of it. Borderline pornagraphic.

"Sexpot of the Week" -- Kitten DeVille



We haven't featured a Burlesque or pinup sexpot in a while so this week we're going with burlesque star Kitten DeVille. She's filling the Marilyn Monroe blonde bombshell role on the circuit and has made quite a name for herself. She's a former Miss Exotic World winner, owns a school of burlesque, and produces her own rock-n-roll burlesque show. And she's a beauty.

"Bad (Not Bad Ass) Tattoo" : Exposed Bird

http://gradeatattoos.com/
This tattoo is bad, but has a semi-charm to it. You know, when something is so ugly it's cute? I am particularly fond of its beer belly. And please don't skim over the fact it has exposed breasts. This was done on someone's calf and after that fact hits you, it stops being cute or funny in any way.

"The Hard Sell" : Taboo In Advertising

This is the second post for our "Taboo in Advertising" feature. It was created by Barnardo's, a children's charity located in the United Kingdom, as an anti-poverty message. Unsurprisingly, the ad drew immense fire. It's a bit much (even for me), but it does make its point and it provokes thought. One should feel angry seeing this, but really one should feel as much anger that children are exposed to harm on a daily basis.
