Karlie, I watched your show yesterday, and I have been a fan of yours for many years, dating back to when you were doing simple solo photo work. I think the best thing for me to do is be as honest as possible. I am not an expert on this sort of thing, other than well, I have watched a lot of porn in my lifetime. I don’t know what kind of qualification that is, but so be it.
I respect and understand your desire to minimize your exposure while doing B/G work. If you are currently only comfortable doing it in a small, webcam setting, then that is fine. If it leads to a larger stage, like your website or an actual porn film, then take your time. However, I am concerned with the amount of security you are placing on yourself and your work. I can understand that you do not want an important career move to end up in the hands of many people free of charge. However, I believe that this security is hurting you.
What do you want to come out of this new venture (B/G work)? Do you want to do it a couple of times to simply say you did it, or do you want it to be an aspect of your career that you will be known for? Reading some of your previous posts, it seems that you will not turn into an exclusive B/G performer that will work with many different men. That’s fine. If you only want to work with a boyfriend or someone personal, and don’t want to be known in a wide scale for B/G work, then I think the best thing to do is to film a couple of hot scenes and put them on your website. However, if you want this to be a stepping stone to more exposure, I would definitely sign to do a hardcore film with a major company, and let the guy fuck you six different ways and blow a giant load all over your face. That may seem like a bit much, but if you are going to take such a big step, I think you need to go all out, or people outside of your rabid fan-base will be disappointed.
I do not think the NakedChat cam site is the right move for you, both for people who want to see you, and for your career. I bought credits for your show, and when I tuned in, you were right in the middle of a nice blowjob. It was hot! But, after a few moments, you just seemed like one of the many other, relatively normal girls on that site, giving a blowjob. This is WRONG because you are anything BUT ordinary. But putting yourself on a site with dozens (if not hundreds) of other girls to choose from, well, you did not stand out at all. Also, the site is not well known (I would have never known of it had you not been on it), and it is absurdly expensive. I know that is a benefit for you, but for fans, or anyone else who wants to see you, spending $30+ dollars in credits for less than 9 minutes of viewing time ($3.99 a minute?!?) that you can never watch again is a rip-off, I’m sorry. $30 will buy a month long membership to most entire SITES, including yours. I can buy 30 minutes of on demand porn and watch thousands of films, including most of yours, for less than $10.
On top of all that, there were many technical problems with the site as well. During your BJ moment, I had no sound, except when I tried to adjust the volume, then it would kick in for a split second. This was not your fault, of course, but it hurt the moment greatly. And well, I’ve never been a fan of webcams. They are blurry, choppy, and despite the “live” voyeuristic feel, a star like yourself seemed diminished by it. You should be shot in HD, with many different angles and closeups, which can only be done by a professional camera or crew, of course.
Like I said before, it really just comes down to what you want to come out of all of this. You have said that you filmed a BJ scene for your website, but that was some time ago and it still hasn’t turned up. Again, I understand your concern with your work getting taken and distributed, t o r r e n ted, etc. at your expense. But ultimately, this is going to happen anyway, unless you take the extreme measures you have been, which again, is hurting you more than it is helping you. Holding it back, where NO ONE can see it is certainly not the right move. If I had not come across this forum, I would never have known about your B/G work. There is no mention of it on your website. There are rumbles on other Adult message boards, but there have been rumors about you working with men for years.
Again, if you only want to work with men to say you did, and don’t want the exposure, then by all means do a couple more NakedChat shows and call it a day (working with men, that is). But if you want this to be a new aspect of your career, then you either need to put something on your site, or shoot an actual film. I think starting on your site is a smart move. Lead up to it--post a photo set of you with a hard penis; hold it, stare at it, do everything but suck it or fuck it. Then film a video involving a man, but with no sex—a handjob or footjob would be an example. Then, finally, film a full sex scene, and everyone will be ready. Build the excitement for not just your fans, but for the rest of the casual watchers as well, who will tune in after hearing/seeing evidence that you are doing B/G work.
I still think a major film (with major) sex would be the best move, but you may not be comfortable with that. I respect that. But in regards to others stealing your work, yes it sucks, but if it leads to more people seeing you, how much of a loss is it? I don’t think you should GIVE away footage, but if someone stumbles across a t o r r e n t of you, and it leads to more hits on your website and more of your films being bought, it can’t be TOO bad.
Regardless, your website needs to be attended to more if you are wanting to make that your #1 Karlie access point. I’m sorry, but photo sets are so-1999, especially when I can view high-speed, on demand porn of you elsewhere. Your videos are hot, but again, how many more sensual stripteases can you do? Plus, it isn’t updated that often, and to be honest, isn’t worth $30 a month for only a couple of updates, with those updates consisting of pretty vanilla, normal content.
I’m sorry this was long, but I think there are many aspects of your approach to this that can be remedied, to your maximum benefit. While I love watching you, I will not be “attending” another NakedChat session. It is too expensive and the feel just isn’t there. You seem like just another girl, which you are not. I hope you will do at least some of what I suggested here if you are to seriously consider B/G work in the future. Regardless, I will continue to follow you, and hope for nothing but the best.
