  40. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Three weeks and one hurricane later, I should just give an abbreviated summary of the most senior Exxxotica show in Miami. The Miami show gives me an opportunity  to meet some of the newer talent that are based in Florida. The show is easy to access in the sense that it&#8217;s near the airport and the convention center is next to the host hotel. The crowds are not too heavy, and the food in the surrounding area is excellent.</p>

  50. <p>I didn&#8217;t see any signing talent with huge lines but that may be because of the constant entertainment at the main stage where crowds gather. I also saw Florida-based talent randomly walking around the show like <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/id=cc0d4e67-0ff9-402d-bb37-0eff89005164" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="">Kelsi Monroe</a>, <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/id=34327b71-4027-40ba-8925-31dfca32a8f9" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="">Leana Lovings</a>, and <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/id=5d56a35e-1b77-4e8c-bbf6-8813080d3bea" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="">Daisy Lavoy</a>.</p>

  76. <p>As for the off-hours, I didn&#8217;t stray too far away from the hotel with Mr. Blue Lou Boyle. Even though I kept getting invited to the after-parties by my feature dance friends with incentives of free alcohol, I was just too beaten to hang out at strip clubs.</p>

  109. <p>Violet Myers easily had the longest lines at the convention. People were lining up 2 hours before she started signing on Saturday. I&#8217;ve commented before that I didn&#8217;t know why or how she is so popular beyond being hot (and nice). I should poll people in line at the next show to confirm.</p>

  114.  
  115.  
  116. <p>This year in Chicago was very busy, but the show retained its typical experience which extended outside the show hours.  All four locations of Exxxotica feature after-parties, but the Chicago and New Jersey shows are the ones that have parties at the host hotel. There fans can greet some of the performers in a more casual setting. </p>
  117.  
  118.  
  119.  
  120. <p>Besides fans attending these conventions to meet their favourite performers, industry people attend to network and collaborate on shoots. With the popularity of self-production these days, you have performers from all over never needing to step foot in the  production hubs of Los Angeles, Las Vegas, or Miami and instead meet at an Exxxotica.</p>

  152.  
  153.  
  154. <p>As such, most of the industry was staying at the host hotel rather than the backup hotel. The show itself was hosted in a smaller area with less exhibitors compared to last year. That was fine because I didn&#8217;t have to move around as much.  Even though there was less attendance due to the lack of CES crossover, the crowd density remained the same. At some point, I was jostling in a river of crowd traffic with my camera banging against people including one person that was carrying a motorcycle helmet for some reason.</p>

  217.  
  218.  
  219.  
  220. <p>Logistics for the show also changed. I noticed that only Hussie Models had an agency booth this year, and the lack of agency booths contributed to less talent signing. Less talent and more people made for some tight spaces. The stage presentations by exhibiting companies brought large crowds to the front, but also hampered the people that were signing in front of the stage. Fortunately, there were no distracting celebrity musical performances so people signed on until the end.</p>

  225.  
  226.  
  227.  
  228. <p>Brazzers had the busiest booth for the third year in a  row, and <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=angelawhite/gender=f/angela-white.htm">Angela White</a> again was the most popular signer at the show. Their security coordinated lines that did not impede the flow of traffic.</p>
  229.  
  230.  
  231.  
  232. <p>I liked how the organisers ran the show overall and made on-the-fly decisions to improve the flow of traffic. For example, many of the talent signing upstairs were brought downstairs to the perimeter on the second day to make them more noticeable and pull some of the traffic outwards. </p>

  274. <p>I did not see many performers that I did not recognise and mostly visited with the people that I knew. The smaller show allows you to have conversations without feeling a rush even if there is a line waiting.

  340. <p>Brazzers was the busiest booth with <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=angelawhite/gender=f/angela-white.htm">Angela White</a> and <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=abelladanger/gender=f/abella-danger.htm">Abella Danger</a> having the longest lines that were stretched across several roped sections that were designed to allow foot traffic between them. Abella was only there on that Saturday since she was taking a break from her studies to meet her fans. Angela continued to sign every day past closing time for the people that were still in line, and she graciously took selfies with random attendees who sought her out afterwards. I stood in line early one day which had the Brazzers staff incredulously asking what I was doing, but sometimes it&#8217;s easier to meet and greet the performer that way rather than interrupt her while she is engaging with the fans.</p>

Kylie was the first person to greet me when I walked in. I talked to Blake about her &#8220;Blake Blossom Only&#8221; fan account&#8217;s penchant for removing watermarks for no reason. Roxie was giving attendees dances on a bed which created a patient line of people waiting to be motorboated.</p>

I also had trouble finding performers who were just wandering about and networking without a booth.

  393. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It <a href="https://blog.iafd.com/2016/11/02/back-to-venus/">had been 7 years</a> since I last attended Venus Berlin. Part of the absence had been because of the coronavirus pandemic, but I was also not motivated to go to a foreign show where I did not know most of the producers. Sure, there is a lot of nudity at these European shows, but I&#8217;m not the average attendee who seeks out nudity. </p>
  394.  
  395.  
  396.  
  397. <p>These attendees are mostly older men (age 55+) who look and behave like they haven&#8217;t pulled pussy in a while. They rush and gawk at the first sign of anyone removing clothing. I think this would happen at an American show too if they allowed nudity. Many are openly aggressive in touching and groping the performers to their discomfort, and I think part of it is the rampant drinking that goes on at these shows. I think the only way to make the attendee leave a performer alone is if the performer asked the person for a tip. </p>
  398.  
  399.  
  400.  
  401. <p>The crowds of these type of people prevent me from actually taking photographs of who I want to photograph. I&#8217;m no longer of the age to wade into a crowd, or as Murtaugh would say, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q37xJtuQ24w">I&#8217;m just too old for this shit</a>. Whereas in 2016, I took about 3,000 photos; I only took 650 for this show.</p>

  411. <p>This was the busiest Venus I had ever been to. The organisers are very good in designing the layout and staggering the stage show schedule so that the crowd runs from place to place in a somewhat coherent fashion.  I mostly hid in the Brazzers booth when the mob went from booth to booth. <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=neladecker/gender=f/nela-decker.htm">Nela Decker</a> performed a stage show portraying a terrorist taking a hostage which was in bad taste given the conflict in Israel and Gaza.</p>

From what locals have told me, Mia is now a reality television star and a singer, but her line was too long for me to meet and photograph her again. Brazzers in general had the longest lines for autographs, and crowds circled around <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=lilylou/gender=f/lily-lou.htm">Lily Lou</a> when she bared her breasts and encouraged attendees to grope and choke her. <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=brynleebraxton/gender=f/ryan-reid.htm">Ryan Reid</a> celebrated her birthday that weekend also.</p>

  460. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Exxxotica Miami was a laid back show this year with its third show since the pandemic. There was the same square footage of exhibitors, but the crowd only seemed intense on the first night with the ladies&#8217; free entrance. There was no ridiculous lines at any particular booth. It seemed like the crowd gravitated more towards the stage and Dungeon areas with their entertainment than waiting to see their favourite stars.</p>

  463.  
  464. <p>The Loyalfans-sponsored main booth featured several popular performers over the years. One signer who stood out was <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=jennahaze/gender=f/jenna-haze.htm" target="_blank">Jenna Haze</a> who made her return after a 5 years absence from Exxxotica. She said she was in between her studies given the summer and missed her fans. She plans to remain close to the industry in becoming a therapist.</p>

  477.  
  478. <p>Outside of the Loyalfans booth, there were new and local performers walking out and about the convention. Being out of touch with current porn, I did not recognise many of them to ask for photos. I was thrilled to see the best talker in porn, <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=anyaolsen/gender=f/anya-olsen.htm" target="_blank">Anya Olsen</a>, though after not seeing her for over 5 years also. She&#8217;s a bit laid back in person compared to on the screen.</p>

  492. <p>After hours, I stayed clear of the official parties at the strip clubs and instead hung out by the pool with friends mostly from the Chaturbate booth even though the weather was hot and stormy.  I was randomly handing out White Claws to people who asked knowing that it was still cheaper than buying booze at a strip club. One night I tried to drag <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=emmasirus/gender=f/emma-sirus.htm" target="_blank">Emma Sirus</a> out to the pool, but all she wanted to do was sleep after a long day at the con.</p>

This year, especially on Friday, attendees were shoulder to shoulder as they navigate between booth to booth. Exxxotica producers noted that attendance had increased by 70-80% based on ticket sales. It doesn&#8217;t help that the number of exhibitors have stayed the same which explains the huge crowds congregating at some of the same spots especially the stage.</p>

  532. <p>The longest lines at the convention belonged to <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=violetmyers/gender=f/violet-myers.htm" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=violetmyers/gender=f/violet-myers.htm" target="_blank">Violet Myers</a> and a returning <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=adrianachechik/gender=f/adriana-chechik.htm" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=adrianachechik/gender=f/adriana-chechik.htm" target="_blank">Adriana Chechik</a>. The audience seemed to know more about Violet and Adriana from their Twitch activities than their porn, which is something that I am completely out of touch with. I waited over two hours in line for Adriana because I was concerned that she wouldn&#8217;t remember me; only for me to later remember that she liked Asians and can discern me from being an Alvin look-alike.</p>

  637. <p>There were much more attendees this year compared to last year due to less concern about COVID/Omicron. Even though there was substantial rain that weekend, lines for the public wrapped around the Palladium block waiting for about an hour to enter at their opening times.  Tickets were a bargain at $50 for two days, $25 if you had a coupon code. Even if the ticket prices had been higher, I don&#8217;t think that would have dampened attendance or enthusiasm for the show.</p>

  659. <p>Inside, I did not observe any obvious prohibition on explicit pornography or nudity in the merchandise that the talent could sell like I did last year. Talent signed throughout the lower and upper bowl of the venue. The busiest lines I saw were for the Brazzers booth, specifically with a corded-off line for <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=angelawhite/gender=f/angela-white.htm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Angela White</a>.  It was just a really good expo overall.</p>

  671. <p>Since these events were a week after AVN, the activities and busy crowd took both mental and physical tolls on me personally. I&#8217;m sure other mutual attendees would agree. Many talent that were advertised to sign did not attend, possibly due to exhaustion.</p>

  675. <p> CeeLo Green was the closing musical performance. It was almost like a disjointed karaoke session in that CeeLo would rap over other tracks of other people&#8217;s songs. Are his concerts normally like this?</p>

  691. <p>I was originally not supposed to stay in LA that Sunday. However, a pretty girl asked me to be her plus one for the XBIZ Awards. I also thought it would be better if I was behind the red carpet rather than wait in line with her for two hours to be on the red carpet. Because of the rain, they moved the red carpet indoors in a compact area so the walkers were bunched up with each other and so were the photographers and video crews. I did what I could, even with a non-cooperative photographer next to me.</p>

Hosts <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=joannaangel/gender=f/joanna-angel.htm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Joanna Angel</a> and <a href="https://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=smallhands/gender=m/small-hands.htm" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Small Hands</a> moved the show along with levity. I agreed with many of the winners chosen, and there were no surprises even though I don&#8217;t know the XBIZ voting bloc well. The only flaw for the night was the somewhat uptight Palladium security given the mostly industry attendees. They were too aggressive kicking the audience out after the show into the pouring rain.</p><p>The post <a href="https://blog.iafd.com/2023/02/06/xbiz-week-2023/">XBIZ Week 2023</a> first appeared on <a href="https://blog.iafd.com">blog.iafd.com</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>
