There are few means of promotion more coveted than the celebrity endorsement. As we’ve seen time and again, a Beyoncé lyric can revitalize a fledging brand, while a rebuke from a Jenner can crater a company’s stock. When Kanye West unabashedly flew his freak flag for Pornhub on Jimmy Kimmel last month, the streamer…
Before breaking her non-disclosure agreement and publicly sharing the details of her affair with President Donald Trump on 60 Minutes last month, adult film star Stormy Daniels appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! for a game of charades that said everything without her saying much of anything at all. Now, Kimmel is…
It’s Dick And Morty.
The viral content landscape is dominated by bots, constantly aggregating, scraping, and assimilating content, generally stolen from other users, and then repurposing it. The end game is, as ever, numbers: an easy way to accumulate followers forever. Steal enough viral videos and eventually you can start monetizing…
Last night, melting sculpture of a ’50s televangelist Ted Cruz—or someone on his team—liked a tweet featuring explicit pornography that seemingly cast extramarital affairs in a deliciously naughty new light. This was funny for a lot of reasons, chief among them that Ted Cruz is a self-righteous hard-right…
The fact that your “likes” on Twitter are public, and not just quiet sources of contentment for the content generators themselves, continues to be a source of joy as older celebrities, politicians, pundits, and athletes grapple with the platform. Many are the tales of randy men going rogue via social media, not even…
Graphs that divide search data by state can be fun, allowing us the fiction of believing in cleanly divisible differences along these artificial state lines and the thrill of tribalist sentiment as we discover that, shit yes, our state’s favorite Disney antagonist is Mufasa and not Gaston. While these can often be…
Surprisingly giving for a site that’s all about self-gratification, Pornhub regularly launches charitable initiatives under its “Pornhub Cares” banner, which aims to deep-dick the world’s problems. For its latest philanthropic gesture, timed for March 16 and National Panda Day, it’s tackling the underpopulation of the…
Don’t be surprised if you see an uptick in pregnant teens in the next couple of years, because now that Mike Pence and his brigade of sexually repressed evangelical killjoys are in the white house, abstinence-only sex education is coming back big time. The last time this “see no genitals, hear no genitals” policy was…
Next to cartoon frogs, Saturday Night Live impressions, emails, and actual political platforms, perhaps nothing has played a greater role in this presidential election than the poll, that infallible collection of incontrovertible statistical data that becomes completely meaningless the second it doesn’t support your…
Pizza delivery is a time-honored porn tradition. Some well-muscled “delivery guy” shows up at a babe’s house, they sort of hit it off, and the next think you know, they’re going at it like Papa John’s parents 60-odd years ago. But while the concept might seem tired—and it is—it’s apparently still in vogue, at least…
Bowing to pressure from anti-porn groups Enough Is Enough and the National Center on Sexual Exploitation, Starbucks is following McDonald’s lead and will be blocking porn from its in-store wifi, according to CNN Money. The companies have purportedly been a favorite location for watching porn, ranking only behind the…
When most people say, “Fuck Donald Trump,” they don’t mean it literally because, regardless of whether they’re gay, straight, or questioning, the GOP candidate is a monstrous purveyor of hateful rhetoric, and also orange. Now, Uproxx reports that PornHub and the aptly named BaDoinkVR are offering a Trump-centric porn…
By making thousands of hours of pornography available to anyone with an internet connection, Pornhub has inadvertently contributed to making this country more sedentary than it already is. As passive viewers enjoy watching various bangs, they may be neglecting their physical well-being. The Pornhub team apologizes for…
If you haven’t yet gotten the chance to try virtual reality technology, all you really need to know is that it’s a lot like a weekend in Las Vegas. There’s lots of cool stuff to look at, but nothing you can actually touch. All the people around you seem almost real. And if sunlight happens to creep in, the illusion is…
If you thought that denying North Carolina residents the pleasure of singing along to “Thunder Road” while buzzed on $11 stadium beers was harsh, get a load of this. Or don’t, because porn site xHamster has joined the ranks of the many entertainment industry types (and PayPal) who have raised their voices in protest…
Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek has argued that the problem with hardcore pornography is that it risks no longer seducing you, because no one actually wants to see everything. Pornography is erotic right up until the moment when the camera zooms in a little too closely, and suddenly it goes from alluring to…
Dan Harmon, the eccentric writer and producer currently keeping busy with Adult Swim’s Rick And Morty, took to Twitter over the weekend to live tweet his reactions to a porn parody based on one of his previous creations. Way back in 2012, the fine people at Hustler produced a spoof of Harmon’s Community creatively…
Hotel rooms, particularly in their more reasonably priced iterations, have long been considered rarified spaces suitable only for quiet contemplation and deep, dreamless sleep. That is, until Hilton Hotels & Resorts decided to muck it all up by introducing pornography into its pay-per-view offerings. And if we’ve…
The announcement of the Oculus Rift’s release next year brought with it a flood of exciting questions about the future of home entertainment, and the role that the first commercially available virtual reality headset might play in it. But perhaps no question was more immediate, or more fervent, than, “Is it gonna have…
