Porn Valley- Guy Capo's come up with a pretty nifty idea. As occasion warrants, he devotes his Tuesday KSEX show, www.ksexradio.com to a release party. Which doesn't mean that the local Burbank hooker gives everyone on the show a complimentary handjob. But what it is, is promo for the hot new adult hit in town.
For that, Bay area residents Joe Friday and Reina Leone http://adultfyi.com/read.aspx?ID=3873 made a special trip to the studios to talk about Friday's directorial debut for DVSX, www.dvsx.com, Uniform Babes, and the history which led to its shooting. Capo also promised some info that hadn't made the papers when it was discovered that Friday and Leone- San Francisco cops at the time- were discovered to be moonlighting porn stars.
"If you hadn't heard about this, you don't live on this fucking planet," said Capo in an introduction that Dan Rather would have been proud of. The story, as Capo noted, broke several months ago. "The news hit the public like a whirlwind." Capo, who growls his stories in the manner of the old Vince McMahon Jr. announcing a wrestling match, said it was hard to tell what was the bigger shock, the fact that cops were doing porn, or that Porn Valley had been infiltrated by the law. "Porn Valley absolutely went up in arms because they could not believe, holy shit, we have been in the midst of two cops for months, shooting them, getting to know them, working with them; befriending these people."
Capo suspected that working in porn is like being in the Mafia. "This is not a real job- this is not reality," he stated. "It's like being in the mob. You got to watch everybody. You never know who's on your side, who's not. Relationships change all the time. There's people backstabbing people. People turning up in trunks."
Friday noted that he and Leone- now married- were both in Gothsend, a Capo feature, which also had its coming out party on KSEX and would like to have been in town for that. "I was indisposed at work," he said. "But since they were gracious enough to give me a week without pay, I decided to come down and join you." You could detect a bit of sarcasm in Friday's last statement. Capo noted that the story had been covered by major media like the New York Times, the L.A. Times, CNN. "Even Jay Leno took a stab at these guys. To me, that's the coolest of all. That is an honor."
When the story first broke, Friday conceded that there wasn't a whole lot he could say at the time. "Our hands were tied on that. We didn't know where the investigation was going. We didn't know if anything we said could get us into any more trouble than we were already looking at." Friday said he works in the tenderloin district. Leone explained to a disbelieving Capo that it was one of the more colorful areas of San Francisco. "They have like zoo animals running around in that district. Obviously, Leone didn't mean that literally. Or did she. "You name it, it exists," Friday added. Capo took all of this as euphemism for Friday working the ghetto. "How ironic is that- that's hysterical," said Capo.
Friday is currently under suspension. "Just before I took a family leave when the story broke in June, prior to doing that I received some paperwork I was supposed to fill out on a complaint I received from a citizen," Friday continued. "He apparently felt I was a little too rough with him." According to Friday, it was considered unnecessary use of force. Friday said he had to fill out papers giving his side of the story for submission to the review panel. Friday, however, forgot all about this incident because the other story had him worrying about how the porn revelations were going to affect his family.
Leone is no longer with the force. She said the entire matter would have been kept on the Q.T. if not for the fact that certain "jealous" and "vindictive" people had leaked it to the media. "That's how it all got started." For her part, Leone chose not to go back to work. "Not because of porn- basically I work with all older men. Basically I was the only woman there, and they saw me before as untouchable, their little girl; now they kind of see me as the whore." Leone also referenced some people who talked a lot of shit about it. "Why go back to work where people are just being really malicious. My job was hard enough as it is. At that point I lost all my credibility."
Playing devil's advocate, Capo put forth the notion that, by appearing in porn, Leone had already killed her credibility. She didn't see it that way, however. "It was a freedom of speech issue," she answered. "It's something that I wanted to do." Besides that, Leone suspects that people in her department had alternative lifestyles of their own. "In the sheriff's department there are stories of deputies picking up hookers, having sex with inmates, things like that" she said. "For them to zero in on something that wasn't done on the job kind of blows me away."
Friday also mentioned, not to forget, "crackheads in broom closets." Capo picked that up as an obvious reference to someone. Leone explained that an old sergeant that was no longer in her department got caught with his pants down with a crackhead.
"She was taking dictation," Friday quipped. Capo said he loved it when cops come out and tell the truth. "Don't you love it? Isn't the truth a novel idea for law enforcement?"
Making his point, Friday said when he and Leone first got into the industry, no one knew they were cops. "Monday to Friday we went to work, we did our job. And what we did on the weekend was our own goddamned business. We didn't affect, hurt or cause anybody any distress by what we did." Friday said his work was his #1 priority. "I didn't bring the two into each other. That's where the real problem lies here with peoples' understanding of what is going on and their perceptions of what took place." Friday said when he was wearing the uniform, he was a cop for the city and did his job to the fullest. "I never took away from that." In L.A., on the other hand, he was on his own time. "Who I fucked, when I fucked and how I fucked them, it was nobody's fucking business."
Leone concedes that, by working in porn, one's dirty little secrets may be found out. "You have to be aware of that kind of situation." Leone knew it was only a matter of time that someone at work would discover her other occupation.
"I knew the people that I worked with," she continued, "and if someone would have found out, they would have kept it to themselves because of my personality- they would have known better to come to me about it because I would have kicked their ass." It was Leone's suspicion that once the story was made public, people, however, felt obligated to look down upon it.
Capo made a point of telling his listeners that Leone's not some "small, frail, skinny drugged-out crackhead" porn star. "Reina is a shapely woman- she's 100% WOMAN. Nice thick ass, curvaceous hips, luscious tits. She's got it all going on when she's in a good mood." Which was to suggest that Leone, on a bad day, could whip some major ass. Leone carries a 36 D. Capo was inclined to believe 44 FF. Leone said that was her mom's size. "These are easily ten pounds apiece," Capo ventured to guess.
Capo also pointed out that Friday and Leone made the September issue of Playboy for their story. And Leone's site, www.reinaleonexxx.com, has been up a few months, too. The couple will also be in New York, October 30, for a book release and gallery exhibit that includes Leone.
Leone explained that the famous mainstream photographer, Thomas Greenfield, did a coffee book about porn stars and how they are in their normal life. "It's a really nice rendering of porn stars without makeup in their normal, everyday clothes, non-glamor; then another portrait with the porn stars made up, full porn glamour," she went on to say. "I was really flattered to be a part of that because the photographer, apparently, was really picky about the girls she shot. He shot all the Vivid girls, the Wicked Girls and I was glad to be associated with them."
Co-ho Nicki Hunter, who was running late from a shoot, joined well into the show. The subject of anal was brought up and Leone mentioned that she reserved her ass exclusively for Friday as well as other girls with toys. Capo wanted to know the difference. "I know a lot of girls like that- girls who will take it in the ass with a toy but they will not let a guy touch their ass, nor will they let a guy wield the toy." For Leone, it's an intimacy-thing, she said but noted there was something hot about one girl fucking another in the ass with a strap-on.
Friday mentioned that he and Leone will be back in town Friday to be at the Hustler Hollywood Store for a signing. Friday said the best part is the fact that there will be an after-party with venue to be announced [probably today].
