Netflix's Hot Girls Wanted: Turned On Trailer Offers Titillating Look At Modern Porn Industry
In 2015, the words "Netflix" and "Porn" went hand in hand for the documentary film Hot Girls Wanted, which wasn't exactly what most subscribers ideally had in mind. The extremely frank project focused on young adults entering the world of modern amateur porn and all of its Internet readiness, and was well received enough for Netflix to expand the scope for a multi-episode docu-series Hot Girls Wanted: Turned On. We now have our first look at the upcoming series, and it doesn't disappoint in the "probably going to make prudish people uncomfortable" department. Still safe for most works, though.
Beyond inspiring an initial feeling that I should probably be washing my hands, the trailer for Hot Girls Wanted: Turned On does a fine job in lowering the discomfort value that goes along with watching the episodic subjects. Something about that first doc just felt like viewers weren't meant to feel content with any of it, but the TV series plainly offers up six different stories with different strings attached, and there's an overall vibe that we're going to get down into the lust-embracing humanity behind all these folks. While not all of us has a life story comparable to earning venue through live sex acts, most of us can at least cop to having had emotional attachments to sex in some way. (Or maybe not?) It's mentally titillating, rather than going for broke on boobs and booties.
One of the "stars" of the trailer is the blonde woman who makes her money through her webcam, as well as the bespectacled dude who appears to be in love with her. She has the best part in the whole thing, of course, thanks to a whipped cream pie. Something about this image makes me want to hide under my bed, though, rather than sitting atop it for rowdy behavior.
Beyond that pair, there's another couple that I'm guessing will have a story about what it's like dating a porn starlet. (That one might involve race issues, as well.) There's the one 40-year-old guy whose "unacceptable behavior" might involve an addiction to all things e-porn. Perhaps one episode will be about female filmmakers in the porn industry. With everything that does get talked about, I wonder how much of it will involve the words "Well, this feels pretty good."
Get your favorite brand of popcorn and/or lube, and get ready for the premiere of Hot Girls Wanted: Turned On, which will hit Netflix with all six episodes on Friday, April 21, at 12:01 a.m. PT.
