 Joanna Angel, the self-crowned “Punk Rock Princess," alt-porn pioneer and founding mother of BurningAngel.com, has taken flight and landed in her own personal porn presentation: JoannaAngel.com. Although college-educated and quickly becoming a highly sought after sexpert, Angel defies the cliché of celebrity snootiness by asserting an easygoing approachability, and never seems to be taking her self too seriously. Graced with a natural sense of sexiness by way of her long dark locks, big brown eyes, full natural breasts and nasally/raspy giggle-tinged voice, she not only defines down-to-earth, but she’ll literally get down and dirty to prove it—having sex sans a shower, shave and make-up. Simply put, she possesses all of the characteristics found in girls that guys befriend before falling in love.
 The site itself contains a colorfully eye-catching layout that immediately draws you in. With plenty of pink, and a Punk soundtrack riffing away in the background, Angel greets us via a video montage in which she undresses while demonstrating some of her masturbatory talents. From here, we’re left to left-click our way through a consistently updated photo gallery, Windows Media Player-streaming video collection, Joanna’s diary, cell phone snapshots, a chat room and a bulletin board, among other sections that seem to be posted as quickly as the ideas pop into her head.
 The photo section contains hundreds of high-quality shots culled from different shoots. Whether she’s hanging around a friend’s loft in a lace tube top, is hot, sweaty and spreading her snatch in a sleazy hotel room, or even standing in a pile of broken sheetrock in a bikini, her look can change quickly from that of a young, carefree and kinky Kewpie doll, to a cunning tattoo-covered sex junkie waiting for her next dick fix. Other photos bring out her sultry side as she strikes serious poses while ensconced in varying degrees of dramatic lighting and shadow. Regardless of which character she’s channeling, she rarely hides behind her wardrobe for longer than a few frames, before whipping out her ripe melons and showing off the many moods of her plump, pink and meaty lower lips from multiple angles.
 As if she’s unlocked a safe stocked with homemade sex tapes, the videos contain both a solo Joanna, and long sessions with her boyfriend filmed from his penis’ POV. As an anal enthusiast, she imploringly takes her man’s meat-stick deep, urging him to push things further while she orgasms hard enough to dispel any questions as to her authenticity. Like a perverted and prettier Seinfeld (Sara Silverman?), she’s also armed with many a quick comedic quip. With a pool cue sticking out of her ass, she rationalizes: “Call me crazy, but that’s just how I play pool.” Inserting part of a statue into the orifice, she effortlessly discloses her home-decorating strategy: “If I can’t stick it in my ass then it doesn’t belong in the living room.” Behind-the-scenes footage of Burning Angel photo sessions, a naked cooking lesson (of course the utensils end up in her ass), and a few candid moments which all happen to culminate with her getting naked and playfully penetrating herself, round out the rest.
 It’s safe to say that Joanna Angel can be considered both an entreporneuring blue-collar porn star of (indie) rock star proportions, with both smarts and a sense of humor. As the site grows, it’s also probable that she’ll continue ascending to a higher level of cult-following fame, while honing her humor and hardcore sexual hijinks—so, we probably shouldn’t pull up our pants just yet. As a willing-to-travel type of committed erotic entertainer, she also doesn’t forget to inform us that she’s available for special events, including weddings and Bar Mitzvahs. Now if there was only a way for me to turn back time...
