Elena's one of my current favs and she hasn't been on Vixen in ages so this is tempting. To carry on the conversation about price points - you definitely don't get to re-join with your old account at the original price point. I joined Vixen shortly after launch at $9.95 and the only deals I've been offered are 50% off ($14.95) or 30% off ($24.95). I re-joined Blacked within the last month using my old account, at a reduced rate of $14.95 for one month but re-billing at $29.95 thereafter. Fortunately a couple of days ago I caught a deal on Idealgasm.com to join Blacked for $9.95 (edit: and it stays at that price when it re-bills) so I canceled my original membership before it re-billed and re-joined using the discount. I've also seen $9.95 deals for Vixen and Blacked Raw on Idealgasm, so keep your eyes peeled and check back frequently. Not sure if other sites are offering the same deals, but Idealgasm is the only porn discount site I've seen that has deals for the Lansky sites. Edited by - girlswaygirl on 5/16/2018 3:49:43 PM
Welp, Elena looks as gorgeous as ever but I'm not keen on the male talent. He just doesn't have the Vixen aesthetic I prefer.

I dislike tattoos when they're everywhere and so flashy but the guy had a decent scene last time. On the other hand it's a bit annoying to have good old Mick in almost every scene of this site so I welcome any new talent Lansky can bring, as long as it's not dude from the Jade Nile scene. I'm a bit surprised Johnny Castle only shot one scene for Vixen

^^ Yep. 100% ruins the scene for me. It's a shame that they've been gradually abandoning the principles that originally made this studio's sites so appealing and distinct from everything else being produced by the American porn industry. One of the biggest shortcomings of the porn industry is a lack of consistency, which leads to poor value for money. Sadly, over the past year this studio has become less consistent and reliable. They've abandoned some of their original principles, such as their tattoo policy, and shown a willingness to compromise the aesthetic. The content and performers have become more generic and repetitive. If you're signing up to these sites today, you have no guarantee that your favourite performers won't be paired with the guy with the gimmick. Or that content that was once a staple of the site won't suddenly become a rarity, without explanation. It's disappointing.
^ Pretty much agree with all of this. With women I am less picky about tattoos as long as they aren't covered in them and they aren't super garish. A couple of my favs have tattoos (Kristen Scott, Gia Paige) and that's completely fine by me (though I'm also fine with covering them up for the scene if doing so adds something to the consistency of the overall look). On other sites I watch, like Pure Taboo, tats are not an issue for me at all because it's a different vibe and aesthetic. If I'm watching Vixen, it's because I want to see sex shot with the Vixen aesthetic. I want male talent to have a look that is suited to erotic porn. It's a dealbreaker for me. Bodies that are sculpted and taken care of and guys who are attractive enough that I can accept them in the site's scenarios and set-ups, as men these women are seduced by. Jean had that in spades. Christian Clay and Johnny Sins also fit the bill. The guy Elena is paired with looks like someone I'd see on BangBros (a site I don't watch). He has a lot of tats and they're very colorful. It just doesn't work for me, it takes me out of it. I do think something about the quality is shifting, maybe even going downhill a little. Attention to detail doesn't seem the same. The photographs from these scenes are still beautiful, but it sometimes seems like less attention is being paid to hair/makeup/wardrobe. This isn't true for every scene, the women mostly still look incredible, but I have noticed it a few times. There have also been potshots taken at Greg on Twitter (I like his product but his tweets are insufferable), from other directors and performers implying he isn't present on set directing all of his shoots. Maybe that has something to do with the changes we're seeing. And lastly, another thing that kind of puts me off is the whole Vixen Angel thing. I guess it's nice for the girls, but it's a little over the top. The text on the Vixen Angel section of the website is just lol. I am all for giving performers the respect they deserve in the industry and in wider society, but it takes itself so seriously and it just makes me feel kind of silly. ALL OF THAT SAID...I would probably still rejoin if something blew me away.
^ Greg hasn't been the one shooting all of his scenes for a few years now.

What disappoints about the whole Vixen Angel thing are these two factors: 1. Vixen Angel photo shoots are not available in high resolution and the photo galleries themselves only contain a couple (15 or less) pictures. I just don't get why the pics aren't available in the same resolution (2000 x 3000) as the photo sets for every Vixen scene. And before they made the Vixen Angel photo sets available, I anticipated that the sets would contain a lot of great pics. Instead, there are so few pics in each set and there's rarely more than one or two GREAT pics in each one. 2. When a girl is selected to be a Vixen Angel, she gets the photo shoot but not a scene to go along with it. The whole concept would be a lot more meaningful for the fans if we knew there was a new scene coming when that girl we like is made a Vixen Angel. I mean, how many girls have been named a Vixen Angel and never returned to the site? So, yeah, the whole concept is cool for the women - they get some nice (expensive) swag - but it's proven to be quite meaningless to the site's members and fans. And, yes, the Vixen Angel description found on the site is a bit over-the-top:

I hope we'll see Gia Paige on Vixen soon, preferably with Jean if he ever comes back (Joss did for Blacked, so fingers crossed) or Manuel
I recall Aidra Fox made a dig at GL for using the gifts and luxuries as a payoff for his alleged disrespectful demeanor towards some of his performers

I FULLY AGREE!!! Greg, WAKE UP please! It's a shame, because those pics are amazing both as picture quality and the idea behind them! And btw, I wouldn't mind even higher resolution than 300 hex 2000.

^ It's shot in Europe, but is Red Fox American? I don't notice an accent when she talks. I had never heard of her before, but I certainly like what I see. The name is kind of odd to me...but then again, she is a redhead and she's certainly a fox.
What a gorgeous girl! Curves like a racetrack, firery red hair and great fucking skills! I'll look forward to this scene! The part where she sat on Christian's face and he was eating her pussy, that looks so hot!
Euro hottie Sybil A (a good friend of Nancy A) follows Lansky and Vixen in twitter.

Looks like Little Caprice shot a scene for Lansky as well. I'm loving this Vixen European quest. From the looks of recent follows and follow backs, that Red Fox, Little Caprice, Nancy A and Sybil are all going to be involved with one of Lansky's sites. I hope and pray the Little Caprice gets Blacked. Would be so hot!!
^^Yeah. It sounded like Kayden Kross. She's probably directing the scene too.

The Memorial Day sale is on for Vixen and all of the other Lansky sites. Unfortunately, it's not $9.95/month like it used to be. Instead, it's $14.95/month now. Not really a big deal if I just wanted to purchase a membership for one of the sites, but I was planning on getting memberships to Vixen, Blacked and Tushy this weekend. I'm not gonna do that now.
Will Red Fox continue to work? She has bare min of 50 scenes worth of content for over 6 year period.

Yeah. Empowering sex workers by presenting them with shoes and knockoff lingerie on snapchat while dressed like a sultan. It is silly. Here's another not so subtle dig at the Lansky brand: [Tweet is no longer available] Make your cheesy softcore porn, but spare me the female empowerment bullshit. Like you're providing a noble service. Fuck off. Edited by - local oaf on 5/26/2018 11:38:27 AM

I gave up on Lovia long ago. She is dead to me (as a pornstar of course) ever since she stopped shooting. I couldn't care less for her own website shootings. They turn me off.

Woh, Ariana Marie and Alina Lopez together in a G/G/B scene next! [Tweet is no longer available]
^missing the point, she's another performer pointing mistreatment under the Lansky umbrella, and then the photoshoots and gifts are somewhat applied as hush money
Another BBG scene right after today's release ? Pretty surprising.

^Judging by the tattoos, the "stud" is Dean Van Damme. Could be wrong,though. Have no idea who the two girls are.

That photoset of Ariana Marie and Alina Lopez is a work of art. They both look so damn fine. The scene itself is real quality too. They look incredible throughout and the fucking is hot. Man, when they're on top of each other with their butts in the air and he's dipping from one pussy to the other, that shit is simply outstanding. There's another moment shot from behind, where they're both on their knees each taking a turn sucking his dick while the other one sensually strokes their beautiful ass. It's just great stuff. When I see scenes like that from this studio, it absolutely blows my mind that the IR fans / subscribers at Blacked aren't up in arms, big time, about being denied scenes like this almost completely for about 18 months now. I mean, who wouldn't want scenes like this? It's mind-boggling. As for the next scene, at this point I don't even care who it is. It's just great that this sort of content is arriving thick and fast at the moment.
Hey Blacked/Vixen/Tushy, Natalie Heart is back and is available for interracial and her Twitter says she's practicing anal. How about a Natalie Heart Showcase?
