I was able to spend a few minutes chatting with Maitland during the first day of the X3 show. She was hanging out in Manuel Ferrara's booth and I believe he was live streaming it online. Got a couple nice pics with her and I let her take the selfie, lol. She looked great.

Yes, I hope she doesn't do any gonzo shit with people like Jules Jordan. She needs to keep doing serious movies and acting roles. Not worth wasting her on a bunch of anal and gonzo shit.

Her contract is up at the end of the year. If she does leave Deeper( I don't think she should), Maitland should go to Wicked, Adulttime, or LustCinema. Also, I would like if she would work on a project with Shine Louise Houston from Pink&White. She needs to stay doing serious acting in porn. Along with sex and looks, her acting is her strong point

I don't even think Maitland what's to do any gonzo style anyway. I remember in an interview her saying she turned down doing BlackedRaw because she want something more story-based. That's why they put her in Blacked. I would love to see her do more g/g, I heard she did a lot before she started doing mainstream porn. I don't know why Kayden hasn't put her on Slayed or had a 1-1 girl scene yet. Maybe, the rumors are right and Kayden is pulling a "Manuel" on Maitland and keeping her all to herself. As I said, She'll be better suited with a place where she can use her acting abilities too. She would be great working with somebody like Bree Mills or Casey Calvert(directing).

I don't understand or like the Raw series, it's camera phone porn. It's OnyFans before OnlyFans. And True Anal is just endless rough anal scenes, right? I always feel stuff like this is never original and comes off as repetitive. But that's me if you like it . That's cool too. I have watched and liked gonzo and anal movies in past but not big on them anymore.
^Raw works when there's a real and distinct connection between Manuel and his partner. I like seeing sustained, intense fucking, where people are really going for it. That doesn't happen every time with Raw, but it does happen quite often.

Manuel's "Raw" series is just him jackhammering women in a hotel on a camera phone, right? As I said, it just feels so low effort with stuff like this now. At least with people like Rocco, you have higher production and quality. Manuel has had the same type of scenes with Maitland in Muse and she did a Raw scene with him. I haven't watched it but I'm sure it's the same. His anal scene with Maitland was really intense, along with a 12-minute rough sex fuck scene in Muse 2. Have you tried watching Owen Grey's Deep Lush series? It's not straight-up gonzo but it's done in a very intimate style and can get very intense. That's the connection and realness I'm talking about. Owen isn't some jacked-up Europen or so-called sex addict, who can't get off without having rough sex. All the women look like they're really enjoying themselves and he sometimes does rimming and anal. It's just not his focus

Dude, She wasn't doing shit in Hollywood because she was typecasted. Her acting skills are shining because Kayden and porn allow her to play a real adult role. I don't even understand what you mean here, I'm not saying she shouldn't do porn. She'll still be having hardcore sex if she goes to somewhere like LustCinema or Adulttime. I'm just asking for her to do more Features/Erotic Vignette than going the all-anal gonzo route. She'll still be having sex,bro. Edit: "We watch porn completely for the sex" No, shit... It's also nice to have sometype of story sometimes.
^Maybe I'm not reading you correctly but aren't you sort of contradicting yourself? I mean of course we watch porn for the sex in the same way that we watch an action movie for the action and a romance movie for the romance but don't you think that the acting is an integral part of how much we wind up enjoying a movie? To some the pre-sex acting is important while to others they couldn't care less. I'm part of the first group but I still really enjoy pure gonzo porn so the pre-sex acting isn't as important how well the acting is during the sex scene but my enjoyment of that sex scene will be affected by bad acting.
I think that you wouldn't watch a bad acted TV show or movie more than once anymore than you would watch a bad acted porn video.

^ This is subject to change. Viewers' tastes change all the time.
I think porn will inevitably evolve and get more mainstream recognition in future. Maitland's voice could be pivotal in bringing about that revolution sooner. More cinematic erotica.
The word 'porn' as we know it is being rendered meaningless day by day. What it now means is just excessive indulgence in anything. These are good signs for those with more refined taste and those who like to think from the perspective of these great women in the industry.
I watched a sex scene from mainstream movie recently and it is so much more beautiful when a developed story precedes sex. It has more weight and hits so much harder.
Think of all the people who complain that women should not be nude since the beginning and should gradually undress. Even gonzo fans share the same sentiment. We are saying the same thing on another level.
Enjoy whatever she does now. Always a chance she could go back to mainstream work. She's clearly an Oscar caliber actress. She'd make a great Poison Ivy in Batman movies. Hopefully one day.

I think me and pat362 were replying to Secret Guy. It's just that conversation has moved very fast in this thread.
I admire WillCle216 because they clearly see what Kayden and Maitland are trying to accomplish.

You lost me on everything you just said and this makes very little sense to me, sorry. I've given you my reason many times on why I'm not a fan of gonzo and said it's ok if you like it. I have no clue why my comments always trigger people here. Now you say, I'm somehow contradicting myself because I'm not a fan of gonzo and think she would be happier doing more feature roles? Ok, whatever. Again, I think Maitland is better suited to playing acting roles in porn to give porn a mainstream and legit look. Her acting skills help the industry look legit. And she's also good at it. I did I say she should stop doing sex scenes, no. Did say I don't like her fucking on camera, no. You still getting sex scenes, I just don't know why it has to be gonzo?
Blimey, I think you're being a tad over-generous there. She's a perfectly okay actress, but she's nothing outstanding. She looks good in comparison with other porn stars, who (with some exceptions) are mostly terrible at acting, but she's hardly Meryl Streep. If she was really an Oscar-calibre actress, she would have had a much more successful Hollywood career and wouldn't be messing around in porn.

She's becoming the Meryl Streep of porn and you're not giving her or porn enough credit. There have been some really great actors in porn history. But don't worry she not going back to Hollywood and if she would go back. She'll most likely be typecasted again as a pornstar or something. She could play more serious roles and maybe get in an indie movie, she could get an Oscar that way. But a big blockbuster movie? No way, after doing porn. Porn still has a stigma in Hollywood. The stigma of doing porn is the reason actors don't mess with porn. Think about it, actors could do a nonsex role in porn but you don't see actors like Scarlett Johansson showing up in Muse.
I've got nothing against with what Kayden & Maitland are doing, but that kind of erotica porn isn't my thing. It's incredible to watch but just doesn't grab me like gonzo does. I just like to see Maitland do something different with different directors, and continue with what she does with Deeper.

And gonzo isn't erotica to me, it's ok sometimes but not something I watch all the time. What's wrong with the directors I named? Do they have to be gonzo? It's her career anyway and we are all here for the ride. So, we should let her decide her own career choices. If you find what she is doing not to your taste, don't watch.
Maitland is wonderful. I hope her adult work will convince other mainstream actresses do try porn. And i think maitlands qork is quite gonzo. Anal, gqngbang, squirt in face
And yes i hope she continues to push her boundaries this year. What do you guys expect

As I said, Rumors could be true and she's doing like her husband and keeping Maitland all to herself. I think Kayden is just keeping to the story and the story hasn't gone that way yet. I haven't seen Mistress Maitland but in Muse, Maitland is a sexually aggressive straight woman. She fuck around with women when there's a man around but I say Professor Maitland is 75% straight and 25% pansexual. Maybe next season she explore more with women. Hopefully, Kayden Kross doesn't just write herself into the story and that's the girl/girl scene.

You say this about pornstars acting, all while I'm reading rave reviews of Chloe Cherry acting in the HBO Drama 'Euphoria'. Yes, Pornstars can act.. Hell, even sex scenes is acting most of the time. Chloe Cherry -XBIZ
^I said there some exceptions, but mostly they are not great at acting. It doesn't seem a particularly contentious statement. I don't watch porn for strong acting; I watch porn to see beautiful women get naked and fuck. They mostly do that very well.

You didn't say anything about "exceptions" but whatever. And I understand, why people watch porn, bro. I was just showing you, that some pornstars can act, and being a good actor in porn is a good skill to have.

This is so true ... Lots of Feature movies/series have done a gonzo style. I just saw "WasteLand" for the first time and that last scene is gonzo as fuck. Kayden's style is somewhat gonzo but done more artfully. It's gonzo but with a story and bigger budget

They always look like they hate this red carpet shit. Maitland looks great and always shines on the red carpet but most of the stars look like they hate this shit. I think the red carpet runs are stupid and pointless, just like in Hollywood.
^ Aw, come on, don't be a buzzkill. I think a lot of the girls find the process a bit awkward, but you can tell from their tweets and comments that a lot of them love the idea of having a red carpet and being treated like "legit" celebrities and so on... and they also really, really love checking out their red carpet pics after the event.
So much so that many of them pester the photographers if the photos don't come out soon enough.
So if the performers love it, and many fans love it, is it really pointless?
Sorry, i know this is off topic, but you reminded me of something.
One year at a local male footballer awards show, on the red carpet the televising network set up a life size turntable. The players partners were expected to get up on it and it would rotate them 360 degrees.
Seconded. Girls love glamour. And quite frankly I kinda like the uneasy energy (if someone has it). Mainstream female celebs can be likewise awkward. Remember when Jennifer Lawrence fell while collecting awards, twice - people find that sort of thing adorable.
