The ‘Christmas number one’ in the UK music charts has always been highly coveted by international recording artists, even though in recent years it has tended to be the battleground between winners of Simon Cowell’s exploit-a-thon X-Factor and subversive attempts to spoil the party – most notably in 2009 when Rage Against the Machine’s Killing In The Name Of pipped Joe McElderry’s cover of the The Climb to the top slot. Now adult channel Television X is having a crack, in association with Pornhub Records, with a festive ditty called Coming for Christmas by TVXbabes.
“Collaborating with Pornhub Records presents a fantastic opportunity for both parties,” said Chris Ratcliff, managing director of Television X. “Our broadcast channels create a stepping off point for Pornhub Records to launch in the UK market while access to the Pornhub Network provides us with an unprecedented global reach for our festive frivolities.”
“We’re thrilled to be announcing the release of Pornhub Record’s first single with Television X.” said Corey Price, Vice President of Pornhub. “With Television X, which has a huge presence in UK, we’re hoping to top the UK Christmas charts and bring some extra Christmas cheer to our fap-tastic fans in the UK.”
TVXbabes features Television X star and Brit babe Brooklyn Blue on lead vocals and industry icon Ben Dover on drums, with singing starlets Angel Long, Jess West and Victoria Summers on backing vocals. The song is said to be a high-energy track with “smile-inducing innuendos and witty puns all wrapped up in a tasteful package”. It is accompanied by a festive video featuring the TVXbabes causing Christmas mayhem in the studio. Brooklyn cooks the turkey while Angel Long ransacks the pressies all piled up on the glittery sleigh and Ben Dover sneaks a kiss under the mistletoe. Both the track and the video were created and produced in-house at Television X HQ in London and the video was directed by Television X’s Anna Kieran, who is also the brains behind the Christmas campaign.
“We are a porn positive company and we wanted to show this with our contribution of Coming for Christmas,” said Anna. “There is more to porn stars than just sex – porn stars can be pop stars too! We wanted to make people smile this Christmas and I know we will with this track!”
Both the single and the video have been created for mainstream consumption and are not of an explicit nature. The premiere of the official video of Coming for Christmas will be unveiled exclusively on TVXbabes’ YouTube channel on 27th November to tie in with the single’s Christmas cabaret launch party. Behind the scenes footage will be trailed on YouTube ahead of the official launch. Television X will broadcast an alternative, naughtier version on 29th November at 10pm in the 10 minute freeview on Television X available on Sky 903, Freeview 171 and Virgin 473.
Pornhub Records will get its own exclusive cut of the music video which will be shown across the entire Pornhub Network which includes Pornhub, YouPorn, RedTube, Tube8, SpankWire and KeezMovies.
Television X reports that the reaction to the launch of the single has been “incredibly positive”. Fans are invited to share the hashtags #ComingforChristmas and #TVXmasNo1 on Twitter via @TVXbabes, to like TVXbabes’ Facebook page and to follow TVXbabes on Instagram. Coming for Christmas is available to pre-order now via iTunes and will be officially released on Monday 1st December. More information about the TVXbabes can be found at www.tvxbabes.com
