To be fair: August really did great, especially considering it was her first anal. The scene didn't feel as orange as those other scenes, and they moved the date up because it's her birthday in a couple of days. Vince was his usual self, though.
Mason on Twitter just now: It's been the time of my life at HardX/XEmpire, sad to see it end. Thank you to all of the amazing girls and gents who helped create the amazing X Brands. It was a great run! I'm excited to see what the next chapter brings. Link
I hope Mason is up and shooting again ASAP. Mainstream porn's been on life support since Covid and Mason has been on a killer tear! I need her amazing porn in my life!
Mason, Your words about HardX and XEmpire being one of the brightest periods of your life really struck a chord. The work you created with so many performers full of care, detail, and passion has left a strong mark on a lot of people. Closing a long and deeply invested chapter is never easy, but that depth is exactly what made it special. Thank you for everything you and everyone involved built. I'm rooting for whatever comes next, and I hope your new path is joyful and meaningful.
Whether we want to admit it or not......HardX has been suffering a slow death for a couple of years. This isn't a shock I just hope Mason resurfaces soon somewhere that she can fully apply her elite talents.
Hi Mason, I've been a huge fan of yours since "Annette Schwarz is Slutwoman." These last 24 years have been absolutely moving and such an incredible journey to follow. Hearing that you're retiring from the industry makes me really sad, but I truly hope that whatever you do next is filled with success and pure happiness.
