'Sex Factor' Competition Launching May 19

LAS VEGAS — “The Sex Factor,” a Web-based reality competition in search of the next top porn stars, is set for its world premiere on May 19, exclusively at SexFactor.com. 

The XXX episodes and behind-the-scenes extras are completely free, and fans can interact with the cast on Twitter via @SexFactor. “The Sex Factor” features host Asa Akira, while Tori Black, Remy LaCroix, Lexi Belle and Keiran Lee serve as mentors, coaches and judges.

The ten-episode original series follows 16 aspiring porn stars, eight male and eight female, who have never been filmed before. They're not "amateurs," but rather, are actual civilians who responded to an open casting call. The contestants compete in increasingly explicit challenges to win their share of a $1 million prize along with instant porn superstardom. 

“We're going to break the Internet on May 19,” said “The Sex Factor’s” executive producer and creator, Buddy Ruben. "Our judges are some of the top adult film stars on Earth; they write books, direct scenes, have huge sponsorship deals and have all built big, sustainable brands. They are ambassadors to the industry, and are well suited to coach those who aspire to follow in their footsteps."

A spokesperson for “The Sex Factor” said, “Fans will appreciate the show’s fast-paced action, behind-the-scenes exploits, and the sheer spectacle of porn stars teaching civilians the tricks of the trade. Episodes are filled with hardcore sex, technical coaching, drama, humor, and all of the bloopers you’d expect.”

It’s a mainstream pop-culture brand. The show is premium reality entertainment watched together by couples, college kids and good friends in a familiar social setting. We're already accepting applications for Season Two, and many of our contestants are already thriving in the industry."

Ruben developed "The Sex Factor" while working in San Francisco's tech industry. Ruben's production company was acquired by XHamster.com, and in addition to "The Sex Factor, " Ruben and XHamster are developing two new adult reality shows that will be announced in 2017.
