But seriously pornstars are just normal people, and I guess the so many of the pics we see are photoshopped to prefection..
I've noticed that a lot of pornstars have acne problems, Sandra Romain, Sierra Sin etc. Lauren Phoenix does seem to have some acne on her butt sometimes... I've also noticed that Sandra Romain has one spot on the right side of her back where she seems to miss pigment, it's like a light spot.
Maybe it is vitiligo. I recently rented a few titles, and noticed that Van Damage has the same thing happening around his genitals. I would have never have known the name for the disease if it weren't for Michael Jackson.
Also, in regards to the Photoshopping, it is so apparent (to me anyway). I have to Photoshop pics everyday for my job and sometimes it's so bad on DVD covers that you can't ignore it. I rented a volume of "The Apprentass" which featured Lisa Ann on the cover. It showed her legs as firm and her skin as smooth, which was part of the appeal to me. But when her scene came, all I noticed was the cottage cheese down the back of her thighs. Definitely a turn off.
I do know that acne medication via. Pill form can cause this. A friend of mine has these little white splotches on his arms, despite the fact theat he only had acne on his face when he started the medication. It depends on the person, because the medication in question is designed to eliminate the oil/pores that cause acne. If someone has big pores, the medication targets them wether or not acne is present in that location. It's a side effect that's quite rare.
I'm not sure it's a disease per se at all. Now that you mention it, I've seen this pretty frequently with other photoshoots...not as much on vids but that's usually because the motion hides it. It's on several of the models over at FTVGirls.com (he doesn't airbrush his work at all...something I really like).
I've seen this on my own wife after an extended session to the tanning salon before vacation. Apparently, too much too fast and you can blotch your skin a little. It usually clears up with "real sunshine" on the skin. It's usually only there on "tanned models" in the first place.
Another common reason is that the model in question got her tan from a bottle...one of the bronzing agents out there on the market. It's very easy to "blotch" yourself up with that stuff and in many cases, the blotches show up as patterns and such where you dribbled the stuff on you before you spread it around. Sprays are better than lotions, but if a model needs/wants a glow right before a shoot, they can fuck that up royally.
This is why in my opinion, it's a mistake to shoot porn in HD. It's great to see a football coming at you on the big screen, but pimples and bad skin, I can do without. Just my opinion.
I don't mind HD. I only look at the girls I like anyway. If I really love a girl and her performance, I won't mind minor imperfections anyway.
If it is some girl I don't really care much about or get excited about, it could ruin the experience, but I don't care as I try to avoid mediocre scenes that dont really appeal to me anywya...
I m with you on that one. i dont feel the need to see every pimple on a girls face, or every stretch mark and cellulite on her thighs/ass. HD wasn't made for porn...
Given the technology "myth" that porn is the frontrunner of all new technologies (I find this BS by the way...show me the connection between GPS and porn), I wonder how this whole HD/Blue-Ray tech innovation will impact porn in the long run?
My personal bet is that porn will bypass it except for the "feature" porn by Vivid and the like...which is already pretty much artsy as it stands today.
Now holograms and touch/motion sensitive technology.....drool.
It looks kind of like it could be some sort of skin fungus. Not ringworm but something similar. While it might sound nasty, if that's what it is, it isn't really too serious but a case of it that was that extensive would probably need an oral antifungal.
I said "could be" not "is". I'm not sure how you would be so certain unless you're a dermatologist. The person in question would certainly be best advised to see a doctor (if she hasn't already), regardless of what anyone on the internet thought it was.
I think It's a vitiligo... but we only have a pic. no information about how long she has these marks, the evolution, the antecedents ect... anyway, I am not a dermatologist.
for the HD/BlueRay thing, I like HD because I like Imperfection. Imperfection is the Real Beauty!!!

Quite frankly I feel it is a skin problem that's just got out of hand.Nothing for Lisa Ann to lose sleep over unless her co-stars start to refuse to hump her on camera.
All that Lisa needs is a nice scrubbing and a hot cold shower after a proper oil massage and some sex-free rest and if the damn thing still refuses to go away or worse it spreads then it's time for her to scream...for help.
Guess that's the after effect of too much different kinda cum drying on her hot body and her being too pooped to take a decent shower.
For her sake let's hope its cum that's done the damage else it maybe time for her to pack her bags n go...That is something that is bound to hurt her where it gets nasty...i.e below the belt.
The reason I said it COULD BE a sort of skin fungus is that there are some that can look almost exactly like this (Tinea Versicolor, for one) and will also cause the affected areas not to tan. They don't all look like common ringworm.
And yes. It's possible that she is reading or will read this thread.

It's also difficult to keep your skin in great condition when you're caked in make-up 24/7, espessially if the make-up brands don't agree with you. Also, while in LA, you are working in extreamly hot conditions, not drinking enough water, covered in make-up, sweating... It's not the reason for every skin condition, but it also can worsen an exsisting one.
