HD Porn -“I’m having my breasts redone because of HD"


Who's sorry now?

Ah, that would be both the porn "stars" and the porn consumers. Do you really want to see that razor burn in hidef? Or those wrinkles or moles, or whatever? Nah. There's something to be said for blurry images and touchups that let the viewer's imagination fill in the blanks, so to speak.

NYT...They have discovered that the technology is sometimes not so sexy. The high-definition format is accentuating imperfections in the actors — from a little extra cellulite on a leg to wrinkles around the eyes.

Other female actors say they generally like working with high-definition — except for the cosmetic-surgery part. Jesse Jane, one of the industry’s biggest stars, plans to go under the knife next month to deal with one side effect of high-definition. The images are so clear that Ms. Jane’s breast implants, from an operation six years ago, can be seen bulging oddly on screen. “I’m having my breasts redone because of HD,” she said.

The stretch marks on Ms. Jane from seven years ago when she gave birth to her son are also more apparent. But she deals with those blemishes in a simpler way: by liberal use of tanning spray.
