Yakira King and King Noire Star in ‘Pop the Balloon’ on Tgirls.xxx

LOS ANGELES, CA – Yakira King and King Noire star in ‘Pop the Balloon: Trans Edition,’ a playful nod to the viral dating game show trend. Directed by Bakari, the exclusive scene is now live at TGirls.xxx. 

“I’ve been watching ‘Pop the Balloon’ videos on social media for years and always wondered why nobody ever did a trans version,” said Grooby producer Bakari. “Our community has so many interesting voices and perspectives that it naturally sets up a completely different experience. When we started crafting this, we thought about how the game is supposed to be funny and entertaining—but it’s also a social experiment. It exposes the messy, inconvenient truths about how we date. And as someone who’s navigated dating trans women in NYC—one of the hardest dating cities in the world—I felt like this was the perfect chance to pull the curtain back and show what dating really looks like for trans women and the men who are attracted to them.”

“I actually had no idea what our NYC producer Bakari was talking about when he asked to do a ‘Pop The Balloon’ theme, but was happy to let him run with it,” stated Steven Grooby.  “The finished result (and I do understand it now) is great, it’s a lot of fun and then leads into a very hot scene with King Noire and the surprise last girl standing in the lineup.”

Bakari added, “Nothing in this was scripted or planned. All the ‘actors’ are my real friends. This is literally what it’s like when we all hang out. Even the host, my girl Nekia, got zero notes and was told to just wing it. In the end, I think we made something authentic, entertaining, goofy, and way bigger than the sum of its parts. And maybe—just maybe—it’ll help people who watch our porn see a more dynamic, interesting, human side of these girls.”
