Ever Wanted to Make a Sex Tape? Sheri's Ranch Says Now You Can

World’s Most famous Brothel Offers On-Camera Adventures in New 'Sex Tape' Room

Sheri’s Ranch, the Las Vegas-area’s only legal brothel, adult resort and spa, announces a sizzling new addition to its menu of services: the Sex Tape Room, for Ranch guests who want to experience the voyeuristic nature of making their very own sex tape.

Equipped with an array of peeping video cameras capturing every angle, the Sex Tape Room delivers a voyeuristic XXX fantasy, complete with an auto source-changing mixer to change the feed from camera to camera, creating the feel of a live porn shoot projected onto the Room's big-screen TV.   To complete the ultimate fantasy, one of the walls of the sex tape room will  contain a one way mirror where  the ladies of Sheri’s Ranch will be able to hear the arousing sounds taking place while the customer inside the room gets to fully embrace the titillating voyeuristic experience.

"Customers often request to film their sessions with our courtesans," said Sheri's Ranch Madam, Dena, "so we have taken the concept even further with a room designed for our guests to watch themselves have sex like a celebrity, from different angles, then take the footage home for repeated viewings."

The Sex Tape Room is an exciting addition to Sheri’s Playland, the Ranch's wing of bungalows that serves up exotic on-site specialties like Nuru sensual erotic massage, a BDSM dungeon and fantasy rooms (classroom, office, locker room, Geisha Girl, Arabian nights, Swinging '60s) for sexually adventurous men, women and couples.

“Sheri's is the perfect summer getaway, a secluded retreat in the Nevada desert, away from life's daily pressures," said Dena.

Sheri's Ranch is a 20-acre oasis an hour west of Las Vegas that offers a serene resort setting complete with upscale amenities such as a sports bar/restaurant, spa/sauna/Jacuzzi, tennis, volleyball, home theater and swimming facilities. 

For more information, go to www.sherisranch.com.

Sheri’s Ranch is a legal brothel, resort and spa located in Pahrump, Nevada, sixty miles west of Las Vegas. The Ranch was purchased by former Chicago homicide detective Chuck Lee in 2001 and was recently remodeled into a fantasyland of suites and bungalows with themes such as Lustful Locker Room, Naughty Classroom and Geisha Girl Bedroom, based on customers’ most popular requests. With 20 acres of beautifully cultivated land, complete with a pool, Jacuzzi, and tennis courts, Sheri’s Ranch is a place where visitors can discover unequalled peace and relaxation.  Lee has taken great care in maintaining a resort playground with the clients’ safety and privacy in mind.

Harriet Sugarcookie Tries Sugar Dating and Finds Sugar Baby Yumi

Adult performer, cam model and blogger Harriet Sugarcookie decided to take the leap and try online sugar dating - as a Sugar 'Daddy' - then record the steamy results for her adults-only blog, HarrietSugarcookie.com.

Sugarcookie recently took an online poll to gauge the popularity of Sugar Dating and found that 23% of men have been in a Sugar Daddy relationship. Intrigued with the concept, Sugarcookie signed up with SeekingArrangement.com and set forth to find her very first Sugar Baby.

Direct Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2saG0K8bTo&feature=gp-n-y&google_comment_id=z12ssnrocwb3uzlgc04cgnvwbyqoeh44w5s

"I'm so excited, I can't sleep," writes Sugarcookie in her blog entry, 'Call Me Harriet Sugar Daddy'. "My Sugar Baby arrives later today!" In her search for a Sugar Baby, Sugarcookie found Yumi, a student/fashion model in London, and met up with her in Budapest, Hungary for a weekend play excursion.

"I entered into an arrangement with Yumi to be my girlfriend and we filmed our entire first weekend together," writes Sugarcookie, who chronicles their adventures in the city as they get to know each other better in her blog post, 'My Weekend with my Sugar Baby Yumi'.

"A lot of people think that a Sugar Baby needs a glamorous life filled with fancy restaurants and exotic locations," writes Sugarcookie. "Yumi and I had a lot of fun just playing Transformers on the PS4."

As Yumi had never been with a woman before, Sugarcookie eased her into the experience slowly. In Sugarcookie's post 'I Take Yumi's Lesbian Virginity' the girls give the voyeuristic lens of the camera an eyeful. "When I kiss a girl it always feels more romantic," Sugarcookie writes. "Part of me wants to just go diving straight in, but I know it's better to wait."

So what's the life of a Sugar Baby like? Sugarcookie interviewed Yumi about her experiences in the article 'What It's Really Like to Be a Sugar Baby', explaining that an arrangement with a wealthy Sugar Daddy is "more straightforward, you know what you're getting and they're adventurous."

HarrietSugarcookie.com's racy site is the ultimate men's lifestyle destination, blending the British teen porn star's articles about pop culture, sex, sci-fi/fantasy films, fashion, advice, food and entertainment alongside homemade amateur porn video clips and free cam shows.

Follow Harriet Sugarcookie on Twitter (@HSugarCookie) and Instagram (@harrietsugarcookie)

Adult performer, cam girl, model and lifestyle blogger Harriet Sugarcookie is the very definition of a 21st century porn star. The petite teen Asian beauty from London, England and self-described nerd has parlayed her fresh-faced girl-next door charm into an indie prestige lifestyle brand, harrietsugarcookie.com, chock-full of tech, film, fantasy football, pop culture, personal musings, advice columns and amateur hardcore reality porn with Sugarcookie's closest friends.

In the short time since Sugarcookie's 2015 site launch, which has already acquired an impressive 30,000 VIP members keen on enjoying the starlet's latest NSFW online exploits and free cam shows, the bespectacled ingénue - and former awkward 'ugly duckling' - from London, England has blossomed into an independent company boss who calls the shots on the production and distribution of every aspect of her site's personally-managed content.

Expect new scenes from Sugarcookie with porn star Candee Licious, amateur girl Velvet and a private sex tape with a delicious new Colombian/Italian treat named Hannah Sugarcookie.

Polls Find Darth Vader, Vladimir Putin More Popular Presidential Candidates - Sugarcookie

S/O to Sugarcookie for polling nearly 800 fans, giving them the choice to vote for Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump or Darth Vader.

Adult starlet and popular cam performer Harriet Sugarcookie took to her lifestyle website HarrietSugarcookie.com to poll fans this week ahead of the U.S. Presidential Election and one thing is clear: American citizens would rather vote for a Dark Lord than an actual candidate.

"I knew Clinton and Trump were unpopular candidates but I had no idea it was this bad," said Sugarcookie, noting the vitriol aimed at both nominees. "What surprised me even more is that if Vladimir Putin was also standing for president, he'd win by a whopping 43%! It seems people just can't get enough of the Evil Empire."

Thanks To Porn Activists, PROP. 60 DEFEATED!

In a crucial victory for public health, California commerce and the porn industry, Golden State voters soundly rejected Proposition 60, the mandatory condom law espoused by AIDS Healthcare Foundation boss Michael Weinstein.

This triumph would not have been possible without tremendous contributions from the entire porn industry. The Free Speech Coalition and FSC leader Eric Paul Leue organized this effort; companies including Vivid, Adam & Eve and Evil Angel made financial contributions. A host of porn performers drove the movement, led by Adult Performer Advocacy Committee (APAC) President Ella Darling, APAC Chairwoman Chanel Preston and superstar Julia Ann. Porn star volunteers raised funds and made appearances to spread awareness of the cause; some, like Tasha Reign, donated their own money. And porn stars engaged voters with a vibrant social media campaign.

“Perhaps now, the non-profit AIDS Healthcare Foundation will stop illegally wasting their donors’ dollars on political fights and spend them on programs that benefit the sick and needy,” said Evil Angel founder John Stagliano.

Media as diverse as the Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, San Diego Union-Tribune, Orange County Register, Sacramento Bee, Fresno Bee and San Jose Mercury News all opposed Prop. 60, as did BOTH the California Democratic Party and the California Republican Party. They and the porn industry got the message to voters.

The poorly drafted Prop. 60, theoretically designed to protect porn talent, would in fact have made California’s adult performers far less safe, and the proposition’s draconian measures would have forced the multi-billion dollar industry out of state. The worst thing about Prop. 60 was that it would have replaced existing, effective STD testing standards with less effective tests conducted less often.

Thanks to California voters and the activists that engaged them, porn producers and wage earners are no longer threatened with unsafe standards or the loss of their livelihood.

AEE & ANE Coming Jan. 20 - 23 in Las Vegas

IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 2016 AVN AWARDS TO HONOR FOUNDER PAUL FISHBEIN WITH ITS PRESTIGIOUS VISIONARY AWARD!

AVN Media Network announced today that Paul Fishbein will receive the prestigious Visionary Award at the 2016 AVN Awards. Fishbein was one of the original founders of AVN back in 1983 and headed the organization for nearly 30 years before selling the company. The award will be presented at the 2016 AVN Awards at The Joint in the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas on Saturday, January 23, 2016.

"The choice of Paul Fishbein as this year's Visionary was an easy one," commented Tony Rios, CEO of AVN Media Network. "Paul is someone who understood very early on the importance of the adult film industry, and that it was going to be a moving force in consumer marketplace in those early days of home video. He has continued to deal with adult entertainment in a serious way and as creator of AVN and all that followed, he has always remained the gold standard. He's not getting this award because he’s family - he’s getting this because he truly deserves it."

AVN’s Visionary Award recipients all have certain attributes in common - ethics, civic responsibility, an eye for quality and innovation, and a compassionate understanding of adult entertainment and its place in mainstream society. Fishbein, certainly embodies all these attributes and values.

"I am truly humbled and a bit embarrassed about receiving this award," says Fishbein. "We created AVN and eventually this award as well because we felt there was a need for it. I’m not sure I'm a visionary, but I am a supporter of the adult industry and if I helped get the business some respect over the years, then I’m pleased about that."

After graduating from Temple University, Fishbein, along with two friends and $900, created the Adult Video News in 1983. An 8-page newsletter that reviewed the latest X-rated releases that were becoming popular on the burgeoning VHS format - AVN was unlike any guide out there. It was Fishbein who realized early on the importance of giving consumers a publication that covered and critiqued the adult movie trade with seriousness and professionalism, something that had eluded it up until this point. With AVN, he would give the business of adult a true business publication, not only reviewing the latest releases but as it grew, it would cover sales, insider gossip and the behind the scenes movers and shakers and the deals they made.

With his first AVN Awards ceremony in 1984, Fishbein again showed his forward-thinking about the business of adult filmmaking and gave the industry an awards show that not only honored excellence in the field, but gave the talented people involved a night to unapologetically celebrate their work and themselves. Under his direction, the event crossed into the mainstream with its airing on Showtime. The annual event is still one of the hottest tickets in Las Vegas.

Since selling AVN Media Network, he launched Plausible Films, a full-service production company based in southern California. The company produced one of Showtime's top-rated documentaries "X-Rated: The Greatest Adult Movies of All Time" and is heading into its second season of the unscripted series "Sex with Sunny Megatron.” A second documentary is currently being shot for Showtime entitled "X-Rated 2: The Greatest Adult Stars of All Time." Fishbein is also working as Executive Producer on a scripted television series called "Submission" which was written and directed by Jacky St. James and is currently in post-production. Fishbein has been a staunch free-speech defender, always ready to speak up for the industry and the rights of filmmakers and performers when unfairly under attack.

The 2016 AVN Awards Show will be hosted this year by comedian Kate Quigley and adult superstars Joanna Angel and Anikka Albrite. The gala will be held Saturday, January 23, 2016 at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas. Known as "the Oscars of porn," the annual AVN Awards Show is the premier gala of adult video and recognizes titles, individuals, and companies for contributions to and excellence in the industry.
