With Taylor Rain all but blowing her chances to win Best New Starlet, the talk at porn star karaoke Tuesday night was about how many AVN awards another Rain, Cherry, might be in for now that she’s seeing Paul Fishbein.

A truly class couple, Aurora Snow and Jay Ashley stopped by with Jay being one of the first to kick in for Red Cross relief. Later in the evening Stormy and Pat Myne sat down at their table. You could sense a cold front sneaking in when Wankus from KSEX gave a hello to Stormy who met his greeting with a stare that could cut diamonds. Does any of this have to do with comments made on KSEX last Friday night about how Stormy in a behind-the-scenes segment for a Jonathan Morgan movie said Katie Morgan was dumber than a rock pile. Which, of course, prompted Wankus to go on the attack in defense of his co-ho. I’m told Wankus’ show Wednesday night should be pretty interesting for additional comments he might make on the subject.

I also hear that Wankus has some interesting video footage of Rex “We’ve Got a Deal” Ryder trying to weasel out of the fact that he called Daisy of KSEX a “fucking bitch” at the last adultcon.

But the best one was when a fan approached Wankus telling him that his friend just loved his radio show. The friend, who then got on the phone, was in for a let down when he discovered that he wasn’t talking to Tom Leykis

Brad Armstrong’s going to be a guest on Keri Windsor’s KSEX show next Tuesday night

The irreproachable Porno Steve Seidman was seen necking with a blond newcomer. When asked for her name, Seidman drew a blank and said she hadn’t been given one yet.

Did I hear correctly that Steve Banan’s supposedly taking a job with Dream Works sometime in January?

Wicked had to cancel a shoot Tuesday because of the fires.

Chef Jeff was Sassy-less, but just for the night he tells us. “She’s home taking a bath,” he said.

Kurt Lockwood has been locked in some escalating drama with Patti Rhodes and promises to give more details. The whole thing began on a Toni English shoot when English supposedly encouraged Lockwood to kiss Tyler Faith’s face on the spot where Lockwood planted a facial. English later said she was kidding. Lockwood said English has anti-male talent agendas.

I heard that the Vince Neil episode at The Bunny Ranch isn’t going away. Trixxxie, the girl who was allegedly assaulted by Neil, is pressing her case although another girl involved in the incident was supposedly compensated. But Trixxxie ain’t talking to the press or anybody- as yet.
