    Chris Crocker has a message for you think that porn stars lack Self Worth

    Internet star Chris Crocker has you in his sights if you think that porn stars are less than, or lack self worth.

    Chris Crocker took to social media to call out anybody who thinks that he lacks self worth because he does porn. The star, who recently revealed that he has nearly 4000 subscribers on OnlyFans, took a moment to reflect on the job that porn stars actually do for society.

    He added, “I want to know good & damn well what kind of worth your boyfriend or husband has when he’s watching it”, before pointing out that all men watch porn.

    He then proceeded to record a video, which he titled, “You are not better than porn stars”,  explaining his thoughts further saying, “So many of you wanna say that porn stars and myself, that we really don’t have “true self esteem beause we do porn.

    “I wanna know what makes you better than the bitch on the other side of the screen. Because even if you don’t personally watch porn I know your man does.

    “Single men watch it, married men watch it, all men do. So because a bitch is on the other side of the screen doing a job you probably don’t wanna do, which is get him off – when you’re sick, your stomach hurts, you’re on your period, you got diarrhoea.

    “If anything you should be thankful to the porn stars because we keep y’all from having to suck that dick when you don’t feel like it. Honey”.

    Before adding, “Bitch get that bible thumping, moralistic sh*t the f**k out of here…It’s 2019, get to flicking that bean bitch…”

    Respect

    Fans were quick to thank Chris for his rant, with one writing, “THIS. THANK YOU. Also, thank you so much for using your platform to stick up for yourself and the rest of us. We really appreciate you from the bottom of our hearts. Have since 2007”.

    Another added, “Especially keeps them from cheating or going to do their secrets kinks someplace else”

    One fan responded, “Also, lots of us queers ladies watch it. Porn performers are fantastic & I wish they (and sex workers in general) got the respect they deserve.”

    The video has been watched in excess of 112,000 times and liked over 1,600 times by his fanbase.

  • Chris Crocker is making some serious $$$ with his OnlyFans account

    Chris Crocker is making some serious $$$ with his OnlyFans account

    The Internet star Chris Crocker has revealed that he’s got a lot of subscribers on his OnlyFans account.

    The “Leave Britney Alone” star, Chris Crocker, has revealed that he has nearly 4000 subscribers on his OnlyFans account which he is charging $15 (£11.65) per month to access. By our calculations at 4000 subscribers, Chris could be clearing $60,000 (£46,602) a month – minus admin and processing fees and applicable taxes.

     

    via GIPHY

    The star currently has 46 videos and 179 photos posted to his page. Chris posts videos of himself performing with other well-known adult stars including Cliff Jensen, Matthew Camp and Austin Wolf.

    Chris first made the move into adult entertainment when he appeared in a Maverick Men film in 2012 and then in 2014 Lucas Entertainment released the film, Chris Crocker’s Raw Love.

    Taking to Twitter to announce his milestone, the star said that he was “so grateful” and posted a quick video!

    Fans were quick to congratulate him on the incredible numbers with one replying “That’s a lot of f**king money” while another added, “Daaaaamn! Now that’s a star”.

    Making money from Porn

    We recently ran a poll asking if people should be paying for porn, staggeringly, only 17 percent of those who answered said they’d be happy to pay for porn. 83 percent said that porn should be free. OnlyFans is one of the ways that stars, like Chris, who have large followings can turn their art into money.

    Speaking to THEGAYUK about how performers were able to make money from porn Chris Crocker said, “I think because now Porn is so intimate: With sites like OnlyFans, where you can direct message, see your favorite performers Live Stream & interact with the audience: Porn used to be solely voyeurism for the audiences paying for it. Performers are seeing they’re making money again because now Porn is more personable. And as a result: It is Porn for THE PEOPLE. When audiences can interact: they pay”.

    Porn stars’ self-esteem?

    He also recently slammed critics who said that porn stars have low self-esteem. In a Tweet on the 10th Feb 2019, he wrote,

    “If you think I have a lack of “self-worth” because I do Porn I want to know good & damn well what kind of worth your boyfriend or husband has when he’s watching it. All men do. You’re no better than the bitch on the other side of the screen he’s watching.”

    https://twitter.com/ChrisCrocker/status/1094454468333178880

    and then released a video captioned, You. Are. Not. “Better Than” Porn Stars, which was watched over 100,000 times.

  • Chris Crocker just started a debate on tipping in the US

    Chris Crocker just started a debate on tipping in the US

    How much do you tip?

    In the UK tipping in a restaurant is discretionary, but usually most people tip between 10 and 12.5 percent (sometimes that 12.5 percent is actually added on by the restaurant as an option, which you can ask to have removed, but most of us don’t).

    In the USA however, tipping in restaurants is essential and it’s pretty steep in comparison to the British way of tipping. When eating out, you are expected to add a whopping 20 percent to your total bill, which can really add to your meal’s total.

    Step in, Internet-turned-porn star, Chris Crocker, who opened the debate on tipping, posting a video of him giving a $40 tip on a $14 bill saying, “don’t complain about the tipping when it’s literally part of the dining experience, bitch, if you don’t want to tip, don’t dine the f**k out.

    He continued, “We’re not living in Europe where their (servers) hourly pay is built into the situation,” before adding, “Waiters waitresses, bar tenders are juggeling college, children… they’re making $2 an hour, having to split their tips with their co-workers. If you’ve got a problem tipping, sit your ass at home bitch”.

    Minimum Wage

    In the UK there is a minimum wage (£8.21 for adults over the age of 25 from April 2019) which employers must pay their wait staff, however in the US employers do not have to pay the $7.25 minimum wage to tipped staff and can go as low as $2.13 per hour, as long as tips equals at the minimum wage.

    Well, the Internet came at the situation from all sides.

    Celeb deletes his 4 million strong Facebook account for “demonising sexuality”

    Chris “Leave her Alone” Crocker has deleted his Facebook social media profile following on from the news that the social media platform has introduced a raft of puritanical bans on sexual talk.

    By Chris Cunningham (Email (transferred from the English Wikipedia)) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons
    Chris Crocker has deleted his Facebook page, which had 4 million people following it, after the news that Facebook had enacted a brand new “sexual solicitation” policy.

    The policy could potentially ban gay, bisexual and transgender users from discussing whether they are top or bottoms on the site as it seeks to ban “sexual hints such as (the) mention of sexual roles, positions or fetish scenarios”.

    “Demonizes sexuality”

    Chris, who is an internet star, turned adult performer took to Twitter to say that despite the fact he had 4 million followers on Facebook, he would no longer “contribute content to a site that demonizes sexuality”.

    Facebook’s community standards say, “Do not post content that engages in implicit sexual solicitation, which can be identified by… using sexual hints such as mentioning sexual roles, sex positions, fetish scenarios, sexual preference/sexual partner preference, state of arousal, act of sexual intercourse or activity (sexual penetration or self-pleasuring), commonly sexualized areas of the body such as the breasts, groin, or buttocks, state of hygiene of genitalia or buttocks.”

    The policy change comes just a day after blogging site Tumblr said it was going to remove all adult content from its site.

    In a separate Twitter post, Chris wrote:

    The internet is becoming Anti-Sex.

    A long list of bans

    Facebook isn’t the first platform to take a stand on sexualised content. Earlier in December,

    Tumblr announced it was purging itself of sexualised content.

    Sex workers have seen files deleted or removed from their Google Drives

    Starbucks said it would be enacted a censorship tool for porn on its in-store WIFI

    Craigslist had its personals shutdown

    Reddit has banned all sex-work groups and

    Escorting sites such as Rentboys.com has been shuttered.

  • Wanna feel old? Guess what turns 10 this year

    Wanna feel old? Guess what turns 10 this year

    I mean where has the time gone?

    By Chris Cunningham (Email (transferred from the English Wikipedia)) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons
    Chris Crocker‘s epic Leave Britney Alone rant, which turned him into a viral sensation almost overnight, is going to be 10 years old this year. That means Britney’s epic public breakdown is also turning 10 this year. His video was in response to Britney Spears’ percieved public meltdown, which ended up with her shaving her head in public.

    So what has Chris been up to since that video, which amassed millions of hits and countless memes and parodies, well, he’s apparently signed TV deals, appeared in gay porn and even released an EP.

    The 29-year-old star is from Bristol, Tennessee.

    The video was one of YouTube top 100 videos and had attracted over 200 million views before Chris deleted his account in 2015.

     

  • INTERVIEW: From Porn To Pop, Mickey Taylor On Making The Change

    Mickey Taylor is arguably the UK’s leading gay porn star after a hugely successful couple of years making movies for the biggest studios in Europe and North America.

    He is now one of the most in-demand performers currently working across the globe and later this month he see’s the realisation of his first full-length album of music which is the culmination of a lot of hard graft and we don’t know how he found the time.

    You will know Mickey from such films as Ruined,Hangin’, The Hooker Stories franchise and the hugely successful Fame Game as well as many others of course. This 6′, 22yo sexually versatile Brit lad with over 90 tattoos and a stunning 8″ appendage is a very established musician and trained dancer not only does he write his own music but he also writes for other performers too who love his songs.

    Other porn stars such as Dean Monroe and Colton Ford have of course moved into music but that has always been when they are retiring from the adult industry and moving on what is great about Mickey is that he is flying high with his music career whilst still totally at the top of the porn game becoming a double industry threat. Last year at the Prowler British Porn Awards one-third of all the trophies on offer including Best Porn Star of the Year. Our staff writer Paul Stag sat down with Mickey to get the lowdown on his album, his influences and his plans for his future music career.

    “So I’ve been writing this album for over a year now, I’ve gone through different ideas and concepts in that time and I wrote over 100 songs for this album at first I thought I wanted to produce a very earthy, emotional album but then I went against it and thought about going through a more club vibe. There is some Dubstep, Club Anthems, EDM, Pop and a few ballads. We even changed the name and artwork for the album once or twice but I’m very happy with it now and it reflects myself and what I want the album to say.

    “The Album is called “Puppets Lament” and I went with that title because it really does reflect my emotions and feelings while writing this. As a model and entertainer, it’s hard not to feel like a puppet or used for a corporate or companies personal gain. I wanted to say with this album that this in some ways is how a few people in my industry feel but it’s also about gaining my independence and finally being able to charge off on my own and find my style and what I want to do and say in the world. So this album basically expresses the pain but also the beauty of finding myself and being able to be me and do what I want now that I’m in a point in my career where I’m hired for who I am not what they can mold me to be.

    “I wanted to make the album as versatile as humanly possible. At the end of the day, this was a learning process and I had never released music or an album until now so it as much a discovery of myself as it was a discovery of my own sound and the direction I want to take.

    “This album has so many influences both lyrically and production wise. I draw influence and inspiration from Lana Del Rey, Halsey, Drag Pop, and even a little Nicki Minaj and David Guetta.

    “But I also pull a lot of inspiration from my own life and those around me. I sing about a relationship I’m in right now as well as one’s in my past. I sing about crazy nights out I have been on and some of the awesome things I’ve seen and also some of the crazy times I’ve had between the sheets or my own personal fantasy haha.

    “The first single on the album was called ‘Pain‘ which is also seen in the Naked Sword original adult movie ‘Fame Game’. Myself and Will Read who produced this track wrote this in a day and we recorded an hour later. I wanted to kinda show a vulnerability in the song and sing with truth so the track is actually about a really messy break up I had two years ago.

    “I have so many people who have worked with me on this album! Aleks Rey produced most of this album and i have a lot to thank him for and all his work helping me develop. I have a few artists on the album both UK and US such as Virginia Wright, Aleks Rey, and Chris Crocker.

    “My next single ‘Look Me In The Eyes Ft. Chris Crocker will be out a few days before the albums release date which is the 29th January. This new track is very Pop but with a Club and Rap vibe but I guess you’ll see when it’s released.”

     

  • Chris Crocker Slams Caitlyn Jenner’s Views

    Internet star Chris Crocker has slammed Caitlyn Jenner for her “backward views”.

    “If You Look Like a Man in a Dress, It Makes People Uncomfortable”

    “Who cares what makes others uncomfortable ? Not all Trans people have the finances or want to be CIS-normative

    Crocker, who became famous for his ‘leave Britney alone’ viral video went on to say,
