The Devil and Shelley LubbenDirector: Michael Whiteacre
Shelley Lubben hates porn. She hates the people involved in it and everything they stand for. But most of all, she wants you to know how much she hates it. She is crusading against the sins of pornography. A one time adult movie performer, Lubben is lashing out against the industry that has caused her numerous health and emotional problems. Of course she was a downtown L.A. prostitute for many years as well. Could that have had something to do with her physical and mental well being/breakdown? Hmmm...
"The Devil and Shelley Lubben" is a documentary about the sins, lies and deceitfulness of Shelley Lubben. Well, at least as perceived by director Michael Whiteacre and numerous adult industry players. Whiteacre is the director of the superior softcore film "Call Girl Wives" who is wearing his activist hat to expose the hypocrisies of Shelley Lubben. She has gotten under people's collective skin and the two episodes on the internet, (with more to follow), make the case that Shelley is not the victim she makes herself out to be.
There is one aspect of "The Devil and Shelley Lubben" I found quite annoying. I can't stand listening to Shelley Lubben. She has got quite a grating speaking voice. It makes me wonder how people can stand listening to her. But perhaps it's more the message than her delivery that's helping to spread the gospel of Lubben. She is telling her audience exactly what they want to hear. There is a modern day Sodom and Gomorrah raging out of control in the valley today and it must be stopped. She was lucky to get out alive.
But for what purpose is Lubben doing this? Is she working some angle to get money? Is she starved for attention? Is she just plain crazy? Or is she a true believer in what's she's ranting about? So far, the documentary doesn't have that answer although a conclusion might be reached in other episodes. The performers interviewed, (Kayden Kross, Nina Hartley), refute most of Lubben's accusations about the porn industry. There aren't rapists stalking the set at every turn. As for women not enjoying having sex on film, Nina Hartley goes on to assure us that she has assisted in "hundreds of real female orgasms" in her 26 years in the business. Thank God for Nina Hartley. If only more porn stars were like her the world would be a better place.
"The Devil and Shelley Lubben" is an interesting documentary on an irritant to the porn business. This is not to say the porn business is above criticism mind you. You should certainly know what you're getting into when you walk onto an adult movie set. You would think after about thirty years of porn in the valley they would have figured out safety guidelines for making their product.
But the level of scorn Lubben attacks the industry with makes it seem like she craves the limelight of being a victim. Shelley Lubben is not a reliable spokesperson for railing against pornography. There's a lot of sex going on in Canoga Park and Chatsworth and she is here to save us from it. But no one should stop Nina Hartley from giving orgasms. That's just crazy.

I want to bugger Shelley Lubben (in 1986 when the bird was 18, not as the bird is now obviously).
I want to bugger Nina Hartley (in 1977 when the bird was 18, not as the bird is now obviously).
I want to bugger Kayden Kross (in 2003 when the bird was 18, not as the bird is now obviously).
Your knowledge of eighteen year old birthdays is impressive. You're sure you wouldn't reconsider Kayden Kross? You should probably reconsider an 18 year old Lubben as well.
In that picture of Michael Whiteacre he looks just like Terry Gilliam in that Monty Python sketch "Conrad Pooh's and his Dancing teeth" (call it up on YouTube and you'll see what i`m talking about). Gilliam was the only good thing about Python because he was American, the rest of them were all pathetic talentless British tossers. By the way, i bet Michael Whiteacre has buggered Shelley Lubben, Nina Hartley and Kayden Kross (along with hundreds of other gorgeous porn actresses over the years) the fucking lucky bastard.
I wouldn't be surprised if the 18 year-old Shelley Lubben was an even bigger mess than she is now, and with bad '80s hair.
Nina, I'm sure would have been some wonderful wild '70s girl, though hard to say whether or not there would be hints there of her later awesomeness.
Yeah, admittedly at the age of 26 Kayden Kross is still more or less in the prime of her life (and therefore still ripe for buggery, sodomy, and even vaginal entry) but i still think the bird was even more desirable 8 years ago when the bird was 18. Now, with regards to Shelley and Nina, they are now 25 and 34 years past their primes respectively so theres no way i could possibly reconsider them (although as i said before, the 18 year-old versions of them would have been highly desirable).
Shelley Lubben doesn`t hate porn, shes just angry and bitter about the fact that she isn`t 18 anymore (like all 43 year-olds).
Shelley Lubben only "hates porn" because there are more people willing to write checques to a "victim" who has "suffered much at the hands of the porn industry" and who is now trying to "bring porn down," than there are those who would send money to an irresponsible, unrecovered former prostitute whose medical and other problems are simply the direct result of her own lack of impulse control, selfishness and stupidity (and possibly, it would now seem, genetic predisposition -- Shelley's mother claims her own first pregnancy, which produced Shelley, nearly ended in miscarriage six weeks in).
Yes Michael, that may all indeed be true but i`m still convinced that if Shelley were suddenly 18 again i know that she would go back to appearing in porn movies at the drop of a hat (as it were) and i`m far from being a cynic believe me.
Michael, i presume (and sincerely hope) that your prime objective in life is the same as mine, namely: to shove your knob up the bums of 3 or 4 different gorgeous sexy young girls every day, so, given that, do you think you should really be using phrases like "genetic predisposition" ! ! !.
I see your point, but thankfully my prose has never yet been a point of contention with the lasses, nor an obstacle. I can only conclude there's more than one way to a girl's bum. However, the day my eloquence becomes an impediment to copious, wanton bum-stuffing, I will commence grunting or using sign language.
Until then, I remain,
Yours truly,

Great reply Michael, i fell off my chair laughing when i read it. By the way, it`d be great to hear your opinion on Pauline Hickey an incredible bird who i`ve been obsessed with for over 25 years. Me and Dr. Gore have agreed that when that bird was 18 in 1986 she was arguably the most gorgeous bird who has ever lived, if you go to "The Pauline Hickey Fan Page" or "Pauline Hickey Vintage Porn" you`ll see literally dozens of naked pictures of the bird that were taken around the time she was 18, you`ve obviously buggered literally thousands of gorgeous sexy young girls over the last 30 years (and will obviously bugger thousands more gorgeous sexy young girls over the next 30, you fucking lucky bastard) so it would be superb to hear your educated opinion on a bird who i think is the most gorgeous bird who has ever lived. Its OK if you dont think that she is the most gorgeous bird who has ever lived, a lot of other people i`ve talked to on this subject are not that impressed with her, the facts for instance that the bird refused to shave her pubic hair and never did any hard-core porn seems to put some people off, but as i said, for me theres always been something extra special and magical about Pauline Hickey when the bird was 18 thats why it would be great to hear your "educated" opinion on the bird. Thanks my old mate, from your good buddy, The Sneering (MURDEROUSLY Homo-Phobic) Snob.
Ahhh, Pauline Hickey / Zoe needs no introduction, my good man! I used to live in London every summer from 1977 to 1988, and, being a horny young man, I would regularly save clippings of the page 3 girls I fancied. I still have them. My favorite was Linda Lusardi.
No, I don't think Pauline was THE most beautiful creature who ever lived, but she definitely had something special. Remarkable posture, for one thing, all things considered. She had a sweet kind of sex appeal-- she was, to me, the curvaceous inspirer of mortality's vain strivings.
Here's to the 18-year old Pauline: we hardly knew ye!
The only other bird (besides Pauline) that i still bother to look at pictures of from that era is the mega-titted lovely Lisa Phillips, do you remember her as well ?.
I Wonder if Michael could get in touch with Hannah Minx and maybe persuade her to appear in a porno movie ! ! !, that would be truly incredible, i hope he does it soon though because at 22 her looks are not going to last that much longer.
Yes, I recall Lisa -- brunette, right? A bit toothsome. I'd have hit that, too.
The problem with birds like Linda Lusardi and Samantha Fox was that they were too perfect and flawless to be true (although it is perfectly OK for a bird to be perfect and flawless obviously) where-as Pauline Hickey seemed to be more realistic, maybe thats why the bird was more of a turn-on for me.
You guys are all myopic and delusional! You really believe pleasure or happiness is about orgasms! Seriously? And your soul believes that, totally? You are trying to save your business; that i understand. But consider the greater impact "your business" has on the world. What value is it adding to mankind, to the humanity? Orgasms?! This is really sad.
Shelley Luben is a neurotic woman. She doesn't know what she is talking about. On her facebook page, at times she would even start criticizing Obama and links politics to porn. Its just crazy
PRAY AND ASK FORGIVENESS TO JESUS CHRIST...THE KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS...FOR HAVING TALKED/QUESTIONED AGAINST HIS WORK.For according to PHILIPPIANS 2.13...IT IS GOD FULFILLING HIS WORK AND HIS WILL IN SHELLEY'S LIFE...and IF U DOUBT IT, PUT ALL UR MIGHT AGAINST HIS WORK BUT ITS A CHALLENGE...U WONT BE ABLE TO STOP HIM NO MATTER WHAT..(ACCORDING TO ACTS 5.39) FOR U FIGHT NOT AGAINST SHELLEY BUT AGAINST GOD, THE CREATOR OF THIS WORLD !

DEAR SHELLEY,
MY GOOD LORD, MY MASTER SAYS, "FEAR NOT, AND DO NOT BE DISMAYED, FOR I AM WITH YOU, I AM WHO I AM, PEOPLE WILL TRY TO JUDGE YOU WITH YOUR PAST, PEOPLE WILL TRY AND FIND WAYS TO CATCH HOLD OF YOU, BUT FEAR NOT FOR I AM WITH YOU, LET YOUR EYES BE SET UPON ME, FOR IT IS NOT THE PEOPLE BUT THE EVIL ONE TRYING TO LEAD PEOPLE AGAINST YOU.
DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED MY DAUGHTER, THE BATTLE IS MINE, INSTEAD PRAY FOR THOSE PEOPLE KEEP SHOWING THEM THE LOVE THAT I SHOWED TO THE PEOPLE WHILE I WAS ON THIS EARTH, AND I'LL DELIVER THEM FROM THE HANDS OF THE EVIL ONE. MY PEACE AND MY LOVE SHALL BE WITH YOU AND THEY WILL GUARD YOU ALL THE TIME."
- MESSENGER OF MY MASTER, LORD JESUS CHRIST !
Repent all of you or else you will burn in hell. Don't let SATAN deceive you.
I'll take my chances.
Cordially,

Shelley died this year in Springville. Any clues as to what happened to her? I pity her critics. It's all in the POV you have. Some see themselves as victims and need to morally correct the wrongdoers. Not everything is as rosy in Chatsworth or porn valley as we think. People who start out poor need the money and the porn trade isn't what there doin' for the fun of it. Some others like Christy Canyon are rich and love every minute, as bad as some of the stuff they churned out was. Of course, we might at this stage think real or fake rumored death..
Shelley died this February in a trailer park in Tulare county, one of the poorest areas in California. It's a good guess Whiteacre's snooping and mudslinging helped contribute to her poverty and unemployment. I'd rather die poor than know I profited from the entertainment industry, which in general is notorious for exploiting every aspect of moral depravity and human misery. RIP Shelley, I only know her name and good work thanks to this blog.
I agree the porn valley is nowhere near perfect. Performers can get hurt easily. But it won't be some casualty from the valley that will hurt porn. The tube sites will be its undoing. As content floods the internet, it will be harder for performers to make a living, Then they will go where the money is, most likely to the rougher side of porn where they can get really get scarred.
As for Lubben, she looked like a run of the mill huckster, Its possible she may have helped some people but her game was telling rubes what they wanted to hear. Sinners in the valley repent etc. I did see that she died but don't know the details.
