Royal Blush: UK Porn Kings Seek New Subjects in U.S.

This article from Hyland at Pure Play Media originally ran in the December issue of AVN magazine. UK Porn Kings has been in production full force since 2002, though its presence in the U.S. retail circuit remained relatively under the radar until Pure Play Media snatched it up toward the end of last year. The studio delivers content that caters to those who enjoy attractive amateurs turned pros and has introduced some of the United Kingdom’s biggest stars to hungry U.S. fans. And it’s this tight relationship with the men (and women) who bring home UK Porn Kings DVDs that has propelled it to porn royal status and helped pique our interest over at Pure Play. Fans will find high-end gonzo niches with a bit of British charm—sweet faces, subtle attitude, impolite angles—shot with an attention to detail and quality production: proper lighting, editing and cuts that capture all of the action (especially in group sex scenes). That was one of the reasons why we knew we had to have UK Porn Kings in our catalog; it’s clear that its directors, producers and performers are in it for the passion of porn and understand who’s watching—and what other demographics they want to hit. This deal comes at an exciting time, as popularity of porn from across the pond continues to influence the way consumers pick and choose their next purchases.  It’s all about offering variety without losing focus, while introducing a trend, a performer or a niche that feels fresh or even completely new. It’s no secret that every country has its own carnal culture, and the bros at one of the top free porn sites in the world have been monitoring members’ habits for the last few years in the hopes of shining a bit of statistical light on the subject. They’ve publicly shared some interesting insight when it comes to U.S. vs. U.K. porn habits. MILFs, lesbians, teens and squirting are top searches among Brit fappers, as is similar for their U.S. counterparts, but there are new(ish) niches making their way onto American screens. Most recently, a sex act called “dogging”—a clever take on sex in public—has made the jump, thanks in part to UK Porn Kings’ forward-thinking approach. “Fans will see hot reality gonzo niches like dogging, MILFs, schoolgirls, big tits and interracial because that’s what they want to see. And how do we know that? They tell us,” UK Porn Kings’ U.S. representative said. “At UK Porn Kings, we are always open for suggestions and love to shoot what our fans love to see best. A studio stays in business not just because they make good content; they have to make good content that people actually want to watch. Without interaction and a little bit of research, we’d just be shooting blind. And that’s certainly no way to stay on top.” Pure Play Media just recently signed with UK Porn Kings and we’ve been chomping at the bit to roll out these titles. British porn stars have a different attitude—a certain boldness or brashness—that translates well with U.S. fans, and the scouts at UK Porn Kings have a keen eye for the next big thing. There’s a common misconception that Brit girls are prim and proper compared to American girls, but true porn fans know that some of the nastiest and hottest porn scenes (and porn stars) are of British descent. And that’s one of the reasons why we’re so confident in this content. And while UK Porn Kings will feature up-and-coming porn stars that fans know and love, the studio has a roster of brand-new talent to introduce. Some are the blond-hair-blue-eyed beauties that fans come to expect from the United Kingdom, but others have fresh looks that give the studio its own special flavor. From punk-inspired alt girls to raven-haired nymphs with exotic faces, these performers are fresh off the casting couch—with charming accents, of course—and can’t wait to sow their oats and make names for themselves.  “Every scene is shot with the best and newest HD equipment and packaged to stand out in the sea of options on store shelves,” UK Porn Kings’ U.S. representative said. “We’re a premier network studio with more than a decade of experience and only produce high-end niche content that we know will sell. And we look forward to working with Pure Play Media to secure our status in the States.” UK Porn Kings will release three titles a month, available only at Pure Play Media, with the first batch out and ready to order now. Girlfriend Confessions, UK Nympho Nurses, and British Sluts Love Dogging are making a notable first impression, and we look forward to working with our supporting retailers to make UK Porn Kings one of the year’s top-selling international niche studios.
