The next big move for young Hollywood? Reading audio smut

It was also established in 2019 by Caroline Spiegel (Sister that Evan Spiegel, CEO of Snapchat), Quinn offers its subscribers access to a huge library of aural porn that invites listeners to imagine themselves in all kinds of hot and heavy. Most of the stories on the platform – which cover different genres and types of sexuality – are written and produced by independent producers who write their own audio and voice. But for the last few years, the service he has been collaborating with famous people like Jesse Williams, Andrew Scottand Manny Jacinto for projects that are clearly designed to benefit from popular recognition.

Although pornographic audio is not uncommon, these popular associations have helped Quinn turn it into a mainstream phenomenon. Portraying pornographic TV show stars as the love voice of a cheesy voice makes sense because there is so much content. But these projects also give Quinn a way to tap into the interests of these celebrities.

Some of Quinn’s success in this role also feels rooted in how Hollywood’s culture has changed over the past few years. Audience interest is split between traditional and traditional/mobile entertainment, with the latter often winning out with Gen Z in popularity. You would have been hard-pressed to find a lead from a popular pornographic label a decade ago, but now we live in an era where Oscar-winning A-listers are making deals for credit cards and travel bookings.
