LAS VEGAS — Brittany Andrews and Sean Michaels have teamed for “Beauty in Contrast,” a new anal scene shot by YummyGirl and released via OnlyFans, and paired with an in-depth interview on racism in the adult industry released on Andrews’ YouTube channel.
“It’s been over 23 years since Brittany and I have shot together, and we were long overdue,” Michaels said. “We decided to take this opportunity, as well, to do a historical piece on the last 25 years of racism in porn. We hope that it will be used as a poignant placeholder in time to reflect on the history of racism in porn.”
"There are not too many performers who are currently still filming that have had this kind of lifespan in the industry to have this kind of conversation," he added. "We go over the Cambria List of the 1990s and get in-depth about where racism in porn originally stems from."
Andrews said, “I’ve missed Sean. I feel so fortunate that we finally get to work together again. He’s such a talented performer and wonderful industry colleague — and, of course, we both have plenty to say about how the adult world changed since we last worked together over 20 years ago.”
“With the rise of the #BLM movement during the pandemic, we thought that right now would be a critical time to have this kind of authentic and organic conversation,” she added. “As a white female, I have not always done everything perfectly. However, I’ve always been a humble student and supporter, trying to be as open-minded as possible to being educated.”
Authentic Conversation
Andrews also offered that “as veterans within this industry, it’s important for us to be able to have these kinds of authentic conversations, especially in an industry where it is typically the white female that has dominated it. So, to have a conversation between a black man and a white woman that have both been in the industry for 30 years, it was a very powerful and transcendent conversation.”
Michaels added that “as you will see in the interview, both Brittany and I throughout our careers, have really tried to help change the face of an industry that was truly in need of change, especially racially regarding Black performers for myself, as well as the empowerment of female performers, directors, producers, owners and so forth.”
“I’d like to think that you can look around today and see some of our positive influence and creativity when it comes to how interracial/BBC porn is produced, plus the diversified career paths of women in adult,” he added. “Especially in today's more challenging moments that involve misguided internet mobs using 'cancel culture' to attack performers and interracial porn, it’s so important to try and keep things in perspective — even as we aspire to go higher.”
“So hopefully, our newest collaboration will help encourage the positivity and dialogue that is needed,” Michaels concluded. “We both want to thank everyone for your support over the last three decades as we continue to open doors, open minds, and elevate us all and each other as well. We wish you peace, health, equality and great sex.”
