February packed a powerful porno punch with memorable performances from adult film superstars and newcomers alike. Bang! and Vixen had some big hits this month—and anal one-on-one’s dominated. I see how you all like to celebrate Valentine’s Day!

Here are my favorite scenes from February. 

Kenna James crushed her latest Tushy appearance. In my ten years as a Kenna-head, I never imagined she would become such a magnificent anal artist. The way she wields Dan Damage’s cock is akin to seeing da Vinci or Kahlo at work. Masterful doesn’t even begin to describe Kenna James.

When it comes to anal scenes, I love to see some vaginal penetration first, and here you’ve got the best of both worlds. Kenna not only uses Damage’s cock to create stunning sexual visuals, she also takes advantage of his sizable member to loosen herself up for magnificent pussy gaping with each anal out-stroke.

Then there’s the cumshot! Damage perfectly places his load across her smiling lips and cheek. It’s a facial that will feel familiar to true fans—mirroring Mick Blue’s beautiful pop shot in Ms. James’ Vixen debut in 2017.

Rising talent and two-time AVN nominee Ameena Green slays in her Vixen debut. Oil and sweat glisten against her warm skin as she moans through clenched teeth in this 30-minute all-sexer.

Green looks incredible with those dramatic eyebrows, straight hair, and, oh yes, perfect breasts. Green’s shaky orgasms remind me of Natalia Starr, and her intense yet rhythmic grinding can only be matched by Kimmy Granger. This is real sexual artistry that captivates the mind and warms the soul.

Set in an industrial warehouse, this has style, attitude, a rope swing, and more! I knew it was going to be good the minute Wild started sucking Ms. Taylor's titties. The passion and chemistry in the first breast-worship and blowjob interchange is electric.

Taylor is such an incredible performer. She comes in with the best attitude, and when the cameras are rolling, she is nothing short of a sex-fever dream. Loud, intense moans, emotive O-faces, and a delicious blend of anal and vaginal fucking make this a must-see.

You never know when greatness will strike, but when you put Vanessa Alessia in the WhiteBoxxx, it’s bound to be good. Though WhiteBoxxx may seem gimmicky to some, I love the concept. If you’re not familiar, here’s the deal: everything on set is bright and white, so much so that you can barely make out any set elements.

It’s brilliant in that the only thing that matters is the sexuality of the performers. And what a sexuality Alessia brings to the table! It’s not all about her, though. Scene partner Pavlos Extrem eats pussy like he’s starving. And his missionary thrusts are relentless. 

We get sweeping pans and stunning angles, but Alessia locks her eyes onto the camera—and into your soul—every chance she gets. It’s enough to make you shiver with excitement. Pair that with her sweet moans and the sway of her long dark hair along her breasts, and it’s enchanting.

Kitana Lure kills in a surprise hit for Bang! Starting with a passionate and enthusiastic blowjob with a mystery partner, you just know it’s going to be great.

Bang! nailed it on the production with great sound and visual appeal. Lure’s moans are a dream, and the sweeping low angles do wonders to highlight her smooth ivory skin. 

Carnally, this is seriously smooth sex! The mystery cock slides into her pussy and ass like butter, with Lure’s perfect smile and rocking breasts swaying in the background. They even get a little wild with some choking, but it’s neatly counter-balanced with gentle thrusts and delicate kisses.

What happens when you put AVN’s Female Performer of the Year together with XBIZ’s Male Performer of the Year? Chemistry! Chemistry happens!

Wild’s passion for creating extraordinary pornography is unmatched, and he brings out the best in his scene partners. So when you put him with someone like Bardot, who has mastered the pornographic arts, magic ensues.

It’s all about the subtleties on this one. Vanna is so smooth, moving her body in a seductive, snakelike fashion. She wields her flirting and teasing skills like weapons, driving Wild and us poor viewers crazy., 

Zac pulls out all the tricks, using Bardot’s legs a a lever to pull her into a unique, lateral fuck. You simply have to see it. When you think it can’t get any better, Zac pulls off a rare double-cumshot, popping a thick load onto her cheek before diving back into her body for seven more minutes of fun. That’s two facials for the price of one!

It was a big month for Scarlett Alexis, with hot scenes dropping at PropertySex, NubileFilms, and even a pair of anals at Bang!  But her Bang! Rammed scene with Zac Wild is truly special.

Great porn is predicated on chemistry, and Alexis’ sparkling personality makes her the perfect scene partner. Put her in with a real pro like Wild, and you’ve got the ingredients for porno perfection. 

I love the lusty smile that’s ever-present on Alexis’ face. She plays the sexy vixen well, but you can still see that sweet girl next door who has a passion for pornographic sex. And she even gives a few subtle nods to gooner culture, sprinkling in cross-eyed gooner girl moments that are bound to resonate with fans. 

Even though she's not mentioned above, it was Rissa May who stole my heart in February. One of the industry’s most promising newcomers, May turned heads as we closed January with an awesome poolside romp with Vince Karter at HardX. Then she amped it up with a Nubiles double-header, including a Valentine’s-themed threesome with Scarlett Alexis and Robby Echo.

But her best scene to date came in “Experienced,” a threesome for Deeper that also featured the stunning Melanie Marie and male rookie Chocolate Rod. May, though, stole the show. The 18-year-old is quickly becoming a powerful performer and is already positioning herself for a strong run next award season.
