January was very hot, with outstanding scenes to start the year off right. Rissa May dominated the month with big performances for Vixen, NubileFilms and others. And Blake Blossom made an impact—again!— with strong scenes all month. It was also a month for firsts, like Kendra Sunderland’s debut anal film in Tushy’s delightful callback to her Library Girl beginnings.

But a few scenes were extra binge-worthy. Here are the top pornos that Crushed It in January.

Kylie Rocket, Kiara Cole and Jules Jordan for Jules Jordan

Kiara Cole has been the heart of the finest Jules Jordan threesomes for the past two years. And Kylie Rocket remains one of the most stunning pornographic princesses of the 2020s. The mere idea of these two together is enough to make even the most experienced pornoisseur tremble. 

A departure from Jules’ usual setup, Rocket, and Cole cut to the chase. Jordan bypasses the musical striptease altogether, opening up the entire 41-minute runtime for pure and unapologetic sexual bliss.

It’s a scene that feels more like a symphony, dancing around variations on a theme as it weaves through various movements. Much like Mozart’s bawdier side, Rocket and Cole compose this gonzo masterpiece as a love letter to juicy, wet pussy.

From Act I’s opening girl-girl segment, the eye is ever-drawn to those glistening labial folds through the magic of cunnilingus. It’s an idea that evolves through the second act as Kylie Rocket creams on Jordan’s glistening cock, and is further accentuated by the way Rocket eats—no, drinks—from Kiara’s cumming cunt.

And the third act sees the most magnificent sucking-fucking combo with Cole riding Jules in reverse cowgirl while Rocket laps away at her clit. The result is an earth-shattering, full-body orgasm from Cole that will leave any fan gasping for air. 

Aria Sloane and Brad Newman for Bellesa

Director Jacky St. James continues to trailblaze with humanizing pornography through her Bellesa House series. By searching for the best pornstar pairings and creating the space for a genuine sexual experience free of porno pretext, she consistently captures the most authentic moments between real people.

The pre-scene interview is always a highlight, especially on this one. In his sixth year, Brad Newman has revealed himself to be a fascinating and thoughtful professional. He speaks candidly about self-critique and growth as a pornographic performer. And Aria Sloane—one of the industry’s top up-and-comers—is comfortable, confident, and authentic. 

Newman and Sloane have a history of content creation and hold a high degree of respect and admiration for each other. That respect makes for instant onscreen chemistry. It’s evident in Aria’s demeanor as Newman steps into the room. She lights up, overjoyed as Newman approaches. 

It’s beautiful to see all the pornographic tropes dropped from the start. Newman wastes no time stripping Sloane and lovingly fucking her. You can see the care and respect in the way they kiss, fuck, and stare into each other’s eyes. It’s like watching Kenna James and Nathan Bronson–it feels like a real couple making very real love, and that’s as rare as it is beautiful.

Rissa May and Zac Wild for Jules Jordan

Rissa May delivers a crazy and beautiful fuckfest for her Jules Jordan debut! 

Released on a Friday, early reviews began to trickle in Saturday morning. Gooners and industry professionals were going nuts about the new Rissa movie, and when I saw the poster image for this one, I knew I was in for a treat. Imagine Rissa May nude, legs spread, pussy waiting, and Wild’s cock gently working her ass. 

May and Wild feed off of each other’s energy, yielding inspired no-holds-barred sex. Rissa gets wild with squirting and anal. She shows a reckless love for hardcore. Her future is bright.

Rissa fucks with a ferocity like that of Angela White before her. Cum-drunk, orgasmic, and perfectly poised, Rissa May has arrived. More than a porn scene, this is a pornographic statement announcing that Rissa May is a porn star.

Little Puck and Zac Wild for Bang! Rammed

Little Puck is such a fun performer! A clip artist and content creator, she dove headfirst into mainstream porn in 2023 and is already well known for her high-energy and hyper-entertaining pornography. 

An entertainer to the max, Little Puck plays all her top porno tricks in this one. You’ve got aggressive titty-fucking, goonette-eyes, and playful eye contact that draws you in. It’s the sort of scene that reminds you not to take sex too seriously. It’s inspirational, reminding us to fuck freely and often. 

As a bonus, be sure to check out her energetic foot fetishist’s dream scene with Vince Karter over at Bang! Surprise! She receives a facial to die for, and Puck’s sex is crazy and horny like nothing I’ve seen since Kissa Sins.

It’s a wild ride that’s more than worth a look!

Blake Blossom and Owen Gray for DeepLush

Time flies when you’re having fun. In her fifth year, Blake Blossom has remained one of my most respected pornographic artists. Her authenticity, joy, and of course, that killer Blake Blossom look makes her one of the best pornstars of the 2020s.

For 2025, she’s doing something new, or should I say someone new–Owen Gray! Passionate Indulgence marks Ms. Blossom’s first collaboration with the creampie king himself! 

Shot in typical DeepLush fashion, it feels like a live sex show with stationary cameras posted to capture all the action at just the right angles. It’s no amateur act, though. Gray’s got excellent lighting, solid framing, and perfect pacing, which is just what fans have come to expect from the Nubiles-affiliated project.

Gray’s passion for his art shines through in his performance, a passion heightened by Blake Blossom's presence. Empowered by pussy, he becomes energized while eating her clit, and is simply transcendent when inside of her. 

And Blake is in her element. I’ve always admired the way she exudes a casual and ever-present sexuality. She fucks as comfortably and naturally as one might give a handshake. Her sex often reminds me of something Angela White once said, that sex was her way to come to understand her friends. There’s something about how she gets to know Gray that feels delightfully friendly.

My favorite moment comes right after the creampie–a rarity for Ms. Blossom. Gray cums hard and fully inside, but rather than draining his cock just inside of her lips, he embraces the moment, cumming deep. You can see his cock throb, then slightly soften. Just when you think he’s done, he goes back in for some full-shaft fucks.

Eva Generosi, Angie Lynx, Sata Jones, and Zazie Skymm for Private

Who doesn’t love a good orgy? Massive sex parties have captivated my mind since 2002’sThe Fashionistas. I love the notion of a consensual, anything-goes, free-wheeling fuck-for-all. 

So when Private put together an eight-person orgy for the new year, I was all in. It’s a beautiful scene set in a posh and modern home. A white leather sectional serves as the canvas for endless sexual possibilities, including everything from blowbangs to double-penetration. 

I beamed about Eva Generosi’s pornographic prowess last month, and I was thrilled to see her shine, standing out with her great smile and brilliant moments of sexual prowess. With just about a year of pro-porn experience, Generosi is already beginning to flourish with great pornographic moments! 

Her best moment comes about 40 minutes into the show, moving to center stage with a big reverse cowgirl dance. Her skin is radiant, and she sports this enormous smile and glances around the room as if to take it all in. And that’s when it hits–she gets those involuntary pre-orgasmic twitches causing her to jolt down Juan Lucho’s cock with electrical exuberance. 

Generosi dazzles again in the finale. Behind the scenes, the director has called for cumshots, and Yeri Blue goes into turbo-fucking mode on Eva. Here’s what I love: she goes full ragdoll, with hair and limbs flopping about, all while flashing the biggest smile. And Blue fucks her as though his life depends upon it, exploding across her outstanding pussy. It’s so cool and so fun. 

Highlights also include Zazie Skymm, who looks amazing fucking in a gentle spoon. And you can’t help but fall in love with Ms. Skymm’s expression of joy as she rocks Nikky Nutz in a powerful reverse cowgirl.

Like great music, good porn is about point and counterpoint, and the elegant sex of Generosi and Skymm serve as a powerful counter-melody to Angie Lynx and Sata Jones’ anal crescendos. Lynx plays a number of solos, playing lead with powerful double-penetrations, augmented by magnificent orgasms by the likes of Generosi and Jones beside her, and Skymm working in rhythm with elegant and driving fucks. 

My PornCrush of the Month: Emily Pink

Imagine a dark-haired Latina with supermodel looks, a darling personality, and a passion for extraordinary hardcore pornography, and you’ve got Emily Pink. A prolific clip artist with Pornbox, she first caught my eye in the 2019 film Stretch My Ass by Lets Doe It, and again in 2023 when she returned to Let’s Doe It for a fantastic anal fuck with Vince Karter.

From these two films alone, I knew Emily Pink had the potential to become a star. She has the elegance and mystique of an Artcore angel, and you’d expect her to dominate the likes of WowGirls, Bellesa, and X-Art. But don’t let those innocent looks deceive you: Emily Pink is as hardcore as they come!

The majority of her credits include Private and EvilAngel, including outstanding DAP and DVP performances for Angelo Godshack. And her performance is simply savory. There’s an elegance and grace to the way Emily Pink holds herself, which elevates each sex act. Where other scenes are appetizing, hers are Michelin-star-worthy fine dining. 

Watch for her at Private, where she’s set to release a new mini-gangbang in early February. If you like good hardcore porn, and you are into elegant and transcendent anal and DPs, then you are bound to love Emily Pink.
