There have been several threads dedicated to new girl Brooke, aka Chrissy Taylor. I have piped in on a couple of them with my opinion that she is a sub-par performer who looks far too much like the anorexic, big-breasted girl Mirage was before she became Brianna Banks and got implants (not that she was actually anorexic...she looked like she was.) Well, it would seem that I am not the only one with this opinion. Wanker just posted a rather scathing account of his encounter with her, concluding that she was the worst girl he had ever filmed.
Now Wanker is in no way nice in what he says about her nor does he sugarcoat how he really feels. I tend to think he was too damn hard on her and reading what he has to say might upset some of you who are fans of Brooke, but if you are interested I thought I would just point this out. It is up at www.lukeford.com
If I had to make a list of people in the order of how much I valued their opinion, Wanker's would be way down at the bottom of the list (one notch above Max Hardcore's).
Actually, I would rate him near the top. But I'm a fan of his particular brand of zaniness. He's not pretending to be anything but a drunken maniac, but fools are sometimes very wise -- not that porn is Shakespeare.
I find that Chico/Wanker's opinions are basically quite reasonable, but his expression of them often is not. He seems to like to focus on a certain aspect of porn's reality (performers can be pretty fucked up) that others usually try to conceal, or at least downplay.
It makes for amusing reading, but I'm not sure how it works when he's directing. So far I've only seen his Un-Natural Sex 10, and I'm not sure that his laserlike attention to dysfunction is a benefit.
But as far as Brooke goes, I found the picture with his rip job pretty funny.
I still want to see her again. Skinny chicks with big, natural tits are still a hot attraction for me. Maybe they should question their own directing skills instead of blaming it all on her. If you've got a hot chick ready to fuck on camera I think you've got something to work with. Who gives a fuck if she is whining. That would make interesting BTS footage. You're gonna play that shitty porn soundtrack over the scenes anyway.
Maybe if she is able to choose the male talent she wants to work with you can get better quality scene out of her. I've seen a lot of bad video in my day so I'll do my research and take my chances. But I tend to stay away from bad directors more than I avoid hot talent because of a bad scene.
Is an article like that damaging to a newer talent, or doesnt it really matter in porn? I mean he really ripped on her.
I guess I would say, cut her some slack, she is newer in the biz, and I've seen lots of girls who where boring at first, but as they got more scenes and shoots under thier belt, they got to be more into it, and entertaining to watch. Give her a year. She is so damn hot she atleast deserves that, I give her some credit, there are girls that arent has hot as her, that will not take facials, so I applaud that atleast she took it on the face.

Linus,
Yeah, he ripped on her. But as in many other mediums (besides the web/net) you have to consider the source and their credibility.
Some rate Wanker pretty damn low in credibility, others may not.
Funny, I was almost feeling bad that her agent called me up and said she was too afraid to get out of her car in my neighbor hood. I was going to walk her in but he said she already drove off! First I was thinking that my place is not good enough for her!?! But I can’t be to mad at her even though it wasted my day and my make-up artist day. I realize that at night some men wont get out of there cars unless I walk to get to them! Still during the day? Oh well may it was for the best if she doesn’t give a good scene! To bad she didn’t look bad, but I have to be with Wanker on this if she doesn’t want to do porn then she look for another job that will make her happy Yani Z Vizualfilms.com DVSX.com
I believe that's $20 that you would lose. When asked this question in an interview in one of the movies that she has made, she said that she has never worked as a dancer and becasue she can't dance worth a damn.
I've seen many of her performances, and she is not an entirely vocal performer. She is not inaudible though, and she can grind and bounce on convey the image of good sex well. Other girls, like Dani Woodward, are way over the top and are incredibly fake in their sexual performances. So one sociopath director in the adult industry finds Brooke to a be a subpar performer. He can cast other females that aren't nearly as beautiful as she is, that moan with no level of authenticity or real passion. I've seen Un-natural Sex 10, and it was one of the worst porn movies I had ever seen. I guess it can go both ways.
Gosh, well, I LOVE Dani Woodward and I find the following UnS#10 scenes to be totally hot:
Brianna Blaze (what in the HELL is she doing in porn? She's the fucking head cheerleader you always wanted and couldn't get and NOW she's playing tag-team hide-the-baloney with Tony T? and his buddy???? Wow)
Shayna Knight Mell (amazing tits; bad nose job!) Katja (esp. the silly chit chat) Some of Malaysia -- mostly the pre-sex stuff -- I've seen so much of her in so many similar scenes that it's not as exciting as it was. Her scene in "Feeding Frenzy 3" is her best, as far as I'm concerned.
The Tracy Trixx scene -- I just don't find her all that appealing. I don;t find Jay Ashley all that appealing (something about the lisp and the violent sex make me think, huh?)
The Victoria scene -- May get into it later, but not so far even though she seems pretty hot.
The Alicia Rhodes scene -- already saw a lot of it on the Anabolic paysite, or something very similar, and have seen her in scenes by Joey Silvera that top anything I can imagine seeing her doing for anyone else,
Ok, I guess I should have prefaced my post with the fact that I find Dani Woodward to be absolutely beautiful, and energetic in her scenes. Unfortunately, her energy is unconvincing, like a B movie actress in an overly dramatic scene stumbling through her lines.
Despite having probably the best natural breasts in history , Brooke Sucks. Getting a performance out of her is like getting a confession out of Michael Jackson -all the evidence is there but it's tough to prove a crime has been committed :)
Well having seen one of your own products with Brooke in it, Mike Quasar (Double Decker Sandwich 2), I thought it was one of the better threesome scenes I have seen all year. (The best being Crystal Ray and Lauren Phoenix with her boyfriend in Dripping Wet Sex 7) Since the scene is of high quality (by my standards), and received a high rating from Bono-One (although he tends to rate highly), am I to assume that it took a lot of porno magic (editing and cheerleading a non-cooperative starlet) to make one of the best threesomes of the year? Actually, it wasn't directed by you, but it was still done by your studio.
I just have seen no real evidence of her lackluster abilities of sex in any movie I have seen her in. I guess the real problem that you and Chico have with Brooke is her antics behind the scenes?
No, it wasn't directed by me but it was indeed shot by me. She did a commendable job in DDS but much pre-scene coaching was utilized and she was also paired with one of the most sexual beings on earth - Vikki Vette. Vikki's enthusiasm is contagious. Don't get me wrong, Brooke is a hot girl but previously I had shot her for Metro and experienced the same "comatose" peformance that Wanker spoke of. She was an obvious choice to be in Double Decker Sandwich because she has the best tits ever but I'm not planning to shoot her again anytime soon.
Once again I use the analogy "You can't be a plumber if you're afraid of stubborn clogs". ie, you can't be in porn if you're afraid of sex.
With a better attitude she could be sensational. Then again, with a bigger johnson I could be in front of the camera instead of behind it :)
Wow, I was surprised to read this about Brooke. The two scenes I have reviewed her in I thought she did a good job, though just watching her scene in 1 Dick 2 Chicks she does not take part in the facial nor does she cumswap with her partner. Having said that the other action was hot in this scene. I also loved her scene with Vicky and I agree totally with Mike Quasar's assessment of Vicky's performance!! Do I tend to rate highly on my reviews, I plead guilty on that!! When I watch a scene or a girl and get "excited" about it the writing flows and if I go over the top sometimes that's just me being enthused about the girl or girls!! I'd much rather find something nice to say about a scene rather than always try and find something to nickpick about and I don't think I've ever said something negative about a girl, always try to find something positive!! Back to Brooke, I am sorry she has this reputation so it's a credit to the directors and her scene partners that I've enjoyed her so much and I will give her credit too for being into the scene when it's being filmed and hope the energy I like seeing from the girls will find it's way genuinely into her performance!!
The only Metro title I have seen with Brooke in it was Young and Cumming, and it was a lesbian pairing with Bobbi Eden. Lesbianism rarely interests me, so I have never really watched the scene in its entirety. My favorite thing about the movie is how the interviewer rips into the talent (especially the male talent) with jokes. It must be fun to pick on Mark Wood.
That interviewer was me and that was the scene for Metro that I was talking about earlier. You have one of the best looking girls in the biz (Bobbi) paired up with one of the best looking mannequins in the Biz (Brooke). I had to remind her to moan!!! Like I said, she's hot. If she could simply find some way to enjoy sex she'd have a great career.
Brooke is not also known as Chrissy Taylor. My camera guy is shooting Chrissy Taylor at this moment, and she's turning in a very hot performance. I shot her several months ago when she was only working with her husband and she was great then too.
Brooke is a totally different girl and looks nothing like Chrissy. And I've already heard bad things about her performances from other photogs and directors--even before WW posted his piece about her today today.
--MP
PS Right now Chrissy is begging Dez to fuck her hard and to spray his hot cum all over her face--and sounding like she means it.

hello marcoP. who do you work for and where can we find your videos? :)
Just adding my 2 cents. I feel Chico Wang was a little out of line. He didn't need to publicly humiliate her. Likley, none of us will ever meet her, but she must feel bad knowing that we have read Chico's post on Lukeford. If she wants to stay in the biz she'll learn the "acting" part. Hope she does. Damn, those are some nice boobs.
Like hell she's not. There may be someone else who has been billed as Chrissy Taylor. But Brooke has appeared in "Fast Times at Deep Crack High Vol. 12" billed as Chrissy Taylor.
I haven't seen the FTADCH vol 12, but I suspect it's a mistake that Brooke is billed as Chrissy Taylor. If there's an interview with "Chrissy" on the DVD and it's the girl usually known as Brooke, and she's says her name is "Chrissy", then I'm obviously wrong.
But Brooke has been known as Brooke from the time she first showed up at World Modeling in July 2002:
to the time she was with Cam Smith, through to her current agent, Direct Models:
Chrissy Taylor has been known as that since she started working in the biz from the spring of 2003... here's a recent pic from World Modeling:
And two from today's shoot:
I have a cheapo girlie mag lying around in my studio that has a four page interview with Nikita Denise, and about a dozen photos... trouble is, the girl in the pictures is not Nikita, and looks nothing like her--she's blonde for a start.
It's possible that the 'Deep Crack' editor (or someone else in post) got the girls mixed up. It's happened before, and it'll happen again.
Of course, Brooke might've changed her name for one scene... these models are capable of anything.
So am I saying that if the title card has a girl's name as "Chrissy" when she's always called herself "Brooke", that the title card is wrong...? Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying... That is, unless the girl then continues to call her self "Chrissy".
But if it is a mistake, how does that affect you guys who do the data entry to all these wonderful porno databases? Does Brooke still become "Brooke aka Chrissy Taylor"? And does Chrissy Taylor become "Chrissy Taylor* (* not the Chrissy Taylor aka Brooke)"? Or does the entry for 'Fast Times at Deep Crack High #12' have a note that the Chrissy Taylor listed is actually Brooke?
Regarding the name thing...dude why do you think there are so many girls with the last name of St. Claire (Jasmine, Taylor, Destiny, etc) or two Nautica's (nautica binx, nautica thorn) or a lucy thai and a lilly thai. Names in porn are very arbitrary. However, the fact still remains that Brooke has gone by Chrissy Taylor and now there is actually a new girl named Chrissy Taylor. By the by, it wasn't just that one video in which Brooke used that alias. It was several. It's not that big of a deal.
It's a pain in the ass. FTaDCH #12 is the only time that Celestial has billed her as "Chrissy Taylor". However, there are multilple occasions where she has been billed as "Chrissy".
The Bigger, the Blacker, the Better
Fresh Young Meat Vol. 8
and Fast Times at Deep Crack High #12
If you look at Adult DVD Empire, they have her listed under two search names "Chrissy Taylor" and "Brooke". 3 of the 4 titles, feature Brooke. Only 1 (Pussy Foot'n' 7) features the girl in your picture.
I'm not saying that her being billed as Chrissy or Chrissy Taylor is accurate. I'm just saying that it is happening.
Well Brooke seems to be maturing nicely in the adult industry. I've seen her in Barely 18 #7, RLD's One Dick Two Chicks, and Young Stuff, all of which are great scenes. Her energy level is a lot higher, and the scenes are scorching. The only caveat I have with her is that she doesn't seem to do open mouth kissing with the talent.
One thing that I found interesting about Brooke is that she has been in the industry for about a year and a half, and she has done 50 scenes by her estimation. Searching many of the big sites (ADT, ADEmpire, iafd, jadedvideo), I can't find more than 20 total with both names she uses. I guess a lot of her early work just wasn't good enough, as it seems to be sitting on the cutting room floor.
Maybe if I knew Wanker only from his video material or "Luke Ford" I wouldn't like him. But fortunately I can call him a friend. He is a great, straight forward guy. What he said about this girl is unfortunately right. I had the "pleasure" to work with her. Some people are just not right for this business.
There is a lot of fun and money in porn, but not everybody qualifies for this life.
