Divert your eyes, puritans.
In late August, Houston will be visited by a cadre of male and female porn stars and a sex-toy company showing off its wares.

The TEXXXAS fan event kicks off Aug. 17 and runs through Aug. 20, centered around the Hilton Houston Southwest in the Galleria area.

Female porn stars Cherie Deville, Olivia Austin, Brett Rossi, Anikka Albright, plus male star Mick Blue and others will be on hand meeting fans and signing autographs.

Rossi is likely best known to mainstream audiences as a former wife of actor Charlie Sheen.
Stars from porn's past, such as Ron Jeremy and Nina Hartley, are also scheduled to appear.

Kendra Sunderland, the former college student arrested last year for posting an explicit sex video of herself in the Oregon State University campus library, will also be in attendance. As of late she's been touring as a featured dancer at strip clubs and has done more films.

John Gray, event organizer and president of TEXXXAS, told the Houston Chronicle on Wednesday that he's glad to bring back a convention of this kind to the area.
He was the man behind Pornutopia, which had a brief run in Houston starting in 2006 and also featured actors and actresses from the adult industry. For a time before that, he presided over a regional strip-club-guide empire of sorts.

Gray got out of the adult industry in 2012 and only recently got back into publishing and promotion.

"Houston needs something like this, I think, and there is a market for it," Gray says. "The industry has gone mainstream."
His recent return came about when club industry locals asked him to come back.
As for the expo side of next month's event, one of the major sponsors is adult toy outlet Adam & Eve, which is due to have a strong presence, along with a handful of Houston-area strip clubs.
There will be after-parties at area clubs throughout the convention.

On a related note it was earlier this year that a Dallas judge sided with the city government in regards to kicking a similar sex expo, eXXXotica, out of city limits. Mayor Mike Rawlings had fought to keep the convention out of the city, pointing to video shot at a previous event featuring what was described as "nearly-nude women in lingerie" playing with whipped cream.

The event was slated for late May at a convention center owned by the city of Dallas.
Dallas Police Chief David Brown told officials that his department didn't observe any laws broken at that event in years past.

In Houston, Gray doesn't anticipate any blow-back to his event. He thinks that where eXXXotica went wrong was attempting to use a city-owned building.

"I don't foresee any trouble here in Houston," Gray says. "It's behind closed doors and we're not outdoors bothering anyone."

Gray recounted that one of his earlier events drew some picketers outside, but some of the women who were appearing at the convention ordered coffee and doughnuts for the small group as a friendship offering.

Gray promises no nudity at TEXXXAS. The event will be 18 and up and IDs will be checked at the door.
"Things like this used to be 80 percent male but these days we're looking at 60 percent male and 40 percent female," Gray says. "People forget that women are also interested in things like this, too."
Tickets for the Houston event are $20 per person, with local Adam & Eve stores offering slight discounts.

Any coincidence that they chose a really seedy, old Hilton property that just happens to be right at the intersection of Harwin and Hillcroft?

Do they have a pool table, dimly lit bar serving ice cold Kingfisher and blaring Indian Techno?

I didn't think so.

I don't know if I should admit this here, but I used to kind of know the organizer. He's a sith master in the ways of the dirty old man.

Just to say he could? I mean really, I like roast beef as much as the next guy, but I'm not going to dirty my blow just for S&G's.

Basically created his own landing strip via the blow, so he didn't actually have to sniff if out via the labia.

Expo booted from hotel

quote:
A Hilton hotel in Houston has apparently cancelled the booking for an adult entertainment convention set for next month.

The National Center on Sexual Exploitation sent out an email Friday morning saying it had expressed its concerns to Hilton that the convention would bring an increased demand for prostitution and sex trafficking.

Sounds like the low-rent hookers in that area didn't want competition.

So we were in Vegas for a bachelor party last year when the big prom convention was there. We thought it would be fun to go but we walked in, saw how dark it was in there, and walked right out.

Just a warning to anyone who's interested in going to this one. I imagine its the same.
