et tu, Benjamin?
Blu Kennedy was for the longest time one of my fav porn stars. He seemed to be everywhere in 2010 and did scenes with several of the big porn companies. Well, I have a thing for buff gingers. Duh. And also, I have a thing for sexy men, so there's that. I think that back in the day Blu projected an awesome chemistry on the screen and had a great body and that's what's essential for qualifying to be a good porn star in my book.
Now I've learned that Blu (and his Yale educated boyfriend!) have been accused of a crime involving porn with underage people. I am baffled. Aghast. You would think that someone who is in the porn business would have more awareness of what human trafficking and porn do to anybody who is underage. Add to that that the boyfriend was an intern in a big hospital and your head spins. How could that happen?
I think one of the most disturbing things there are is porn that involves underage people. I just can't deal with the idea of submitting a child to that. Children don't have agency and should not have sex. The damage that can do to a young mind is unthinkable. I think it's a hideous practice and the people who promote it and traffic with it must be held accountable.
I'm very ambivalent about pedophiles. I know they cannot help their attraction and do all kinds of terrible things to themselves to avoid acting on their urges, but I can't imagine empathizing with them. It's just too much for me. I find the idea of an adult imposing themselves on a child repugnant, especially if the victim is very young. Even borderline age-of-consent stuff makes my skin crawl. It's way too much and underage is underage no matter how 'mature' they seem.
So Blu is going to jail, most probably. The boyfriend got the burnt of the sentence, probably, but abetting and aiding on the distribution of pornography that involves minors is just a hideous crime. They never go into details in the articles as to what kind of porn they were dealing with, but it's horrible anyway.
He'll probably suffer in prison. They say child molesters/pornographers are not treated kindly in jail. Such a waste of two lives. And all the lives they most probably helped destroy.
Now I'm slightly depressed. Ugh. I'm gonna have to go eat some chocolate.
XOXO
Totally agree with you babe. Production and trafficking in child pornography is horrible. Those found guilty of it need to do time. And like you said, I hear their fellow convicts do not take lightly to their ilk. There are so many studios out there that use barely legal models/actors you have to believe that they were using much younger children. I hope the victims get the help they need.

I imagine the lure of big coins got the better of common sense and decency.
ReplyDeleteNo excuse.
Hope they rot in prison.
Yikes. He didnt age well.
ReplyDeleteThat's the reason I don't like Asian porn. They look prepubescent. Is Blu Kennedy the only porn actor named Blu? I thought there was a 'Blu' who became a lawyer in LA.
ReplyDeleteEducation has nothing to do with pedophilia. They can be Yale educated or high school dropouts. Makes no difference.
ReplyDeleteFUCKING SCUMBAGS! ROT IN PRISON, MUTHAFUCKAS!
ReplyDeletePerhaps this has something to say about the downside of porn. The desensitisation of it...the need for bigger or better ." Thrills"
ReplyDeleteEat chocolate. Remember, people are never ever the persona they present to the public. Their talent is the ability to transform themselves from who they really are into what you want them to be, that's what gives them star power.
ReplyDelete@bae:horrible, indeed. I don’t know how they get away with it.
ReplyDelete@bob: in he site that initially reported it, they were saying they got sloppy and over confident. Probably because they were making money.
@maddie: being horrible usually ages people.
@jimmy: I’ve never thought about it, but I agree with you! And I imagine there’s at least one or two porn actors with that name,
@debra: I guess that’s true. Still, trafficking with underage porn using his place of work. a university WiFi! Dumb. They see everything we do!
@annemarie: you said it!
@john: I think it was for the money. They got blinded by the money they were making.
@dave: true! That is their talent. But still, you don’t think somebody with such a public life would do something so stupidly disgusting.
