Holy Hotties, Batman!
Last night I received a comment from Heather of JC’s Girls. The comment read:
Actually I do know what a pod cast is. Soon I will be having my own pod cast show called the holy hottie show. I gave you a wink because I think that you are very creative in what you do. If you ever want to interveiw a bad girl gone good I would love to be on your show..heather from JC’sGirlsGirlsGirls.
This morning I wrote Heather an e-mail in response to apologize for the sarcastically evil tone I used on Kitkast episodes 1.5 and 1.6. I post it on my site to publicly acknowledge the apology:
I just wanted to apologize for ridiculing you on my show, I hope you understand that it was more entertainment than reality. The truth is, I do respect what you are doing… especially if it means helping drug addicts and alcoholics to recover. I believe that people should have the right to employment as an erotic dancer, but that the environment should be safer for the physical and emotional welfare of the girls.
I believe that you would be an incredibly interesting person to interview on my show and, as you suggested in your last comment on my site, I would like very much to interview you the next time I’m in your neighborhood.
Good luck with your new show, I look forward to checking it out. I wonder if it will be an audio-podcast or a video-podcast…
Take care and have a merry Christmas,
Ms. Kitka
Well, Heather was quick to respond telling me that it will in fact be a video-podcast called The Holy Hottie Show and that she is making it with the help of her documentary film maker Bill Day. If that name sounds familiar to you it could be because, if you saw my review of JC’s Girls on Kitkast, I cited his name as the original source for suggesting the story. I wasn’t too surprised that Bill Day was working together with JC’s Girls since I wasn’t able to find any video footage of the girls on the JC’s Girls web site.
However, this morning I found something interesting. When reading porn news on the Internet, I found an article about how XXXChurch is fundraising to help a porn star to escape from the industry. It turns out that they have already made $12,000 out of their $14,400 target amount to help porn star Trinity James move to Indiana with her daughter and attend cosmetology school. The details of the fund distribution are as follows:
U-haul Moving Truck from Vegas to Indiana
Gas for Uhaul
Gas for other vehicle
Plane Ticket for Trinity’s daughter so she does not have to drive
Food and Hotel on the Road
Cost to terminate Las Vegas apartment lease
AVN booth Space (Trinity was going to go the Porn Show in January, she owes this money even though she will not go. She has agreed to put material in her booth about the Trinity Project)Cosmetology School for 11 month Degree
Start up money for IndianaTotal:
$1,200
$400
$300
$300
$500
$700$2,000
$8,000
$1,000$14,400
Why couldn’t Ms. James have stayed in Las Vegas and gone to school there? Is Indiana the only place where she felt she could raise her child? Just as you can’t hide from God’s omnipotent power, you cannot hide from sin.
Had James stayed in Vegas and completed her studies there, the cost of helping her out of the industry could have gone from $14,400 to as little as $10,000. That way the other $4,400 could have been spent on helping someone else. But, I guess Ms. James wishes to get back to her family in Indiana… which I can’t blame her for. Family is good comfort, especially if you’re a young single mother.
In addition to the establishment of the new Trinity Project to help people get out of the porn industry, XXXChurch has set up a blog for Trinity James. James has now returned to Indiana and has already started posting on the new blog. Besides the blog, James’ old web site at www.trinityjames.com is counting down to a new site to be launched on 7 January 2006, the precise date of the 2006 AVN Awards. Coincidence? I think not.
My bet is that the new site will portray James as a poster child for escaping the industry and returning to a ‘normal’ rural lifestyle. XXXChurch says that she herself will not be attending the 2006 AVN Awards, but that her booth will remain and will promote the Trinity Project instead.
After visiting various XXXChurch sites to read about the Trinity Project, I discovered that Bill Day is not only the man behind Heather’s Holy Hotties video-podcast, but he is also the documentary film maker of XXX Church’s famous anti-porn film Missionary Positions (i.e. the film distributed on National Porn Sunday). It might be sneaky self-promotion that he sent me the original story idea to cover JC’s Girls, but I’m still grateful for the hint.
I wonder if Bill Day will be making a documentary with Trinity James next. After all, he seems quite well connected to the “Christian Porn” industry.

I have to say this sort of thing confuses me. If Trinity wants to leave the adult industry and go to cosmetology school and XXXChurch is willing to throw some money her way to help facilitate the career change I say good for them both. XXXChurch gets the promotional benefit and that pious sense of satisfaction and Trinity gets a new home, education, and career.
My problem with this whole thing is just its weird flavor towards titillation. As Ms. Kitka mentioned before JC Girls is all about “glamour poses” for the girls advertised on the site.
Their fact says:
“Why do you use glamour poses on your site?
We designed our site to reflect the girls we are trying to reach. Our desire is for the girls to instantly know this site was made just for them. Based on Heather’s experience, we know for many girls in the industry physical beauty is so important and the thought of having to change their appearance is terrifying. We just didn’t want this thought to keep them from learning that God cares little about outward appearance and desires to develop the spiritual beauty inside of them.”
To me this is ironic, much the same way the forthcoming podcast entitled “The Holy Hottie Show.” As I recalled vanity is a sin. I don’t see the difference between appealing to the masses with sex appeal naked in order to further an agenda [in this case $$$] from appealing to the masses with sex appeal while clothes in tight t-shirts and tight pants to further a religious agenda. [Other than the clothes.]
It seems manipulative either way, but at least the sex industry is honest about it.

I can understand her desire to leave Sin City. It’s probably kind of like an alcoholic that wants to leave alcoholism behind… he goes to a halfway house in another city, to help break the social patterns that he constructed that helped keep him in the addictive mindset. His drinking/partying buddies, places, habits… all are forced to reset and recenter in a new city. Good on her, if she makes it - in the sense that she desires a life change, and is pursuing it. Good on them for facilitating it. I don’t have a problem with evangelism reaching out to sex industry workers. I do have a problem when evangelism trys to start legislating morality through the political process.

LEB,
I agree with one difference. I don’t have a problem with reaching out, but I do have a problem with profilatizing and judgement in their professional forum. If the booth [at the AVN awards] they are setting up is used only passively to attract those interested in leaving the industry and need help then that fine. If they use that booth to condemn those working in the business and claim they are all condemned to eternal hellfire without Christ’s salvation, then I have a problem.
Unless of course they would be okay with antireligious organizations opening booths and Young Life and denoucing Christianity. Then fair is fair.
