Secrets of Celebrity Sex Tapes

Before we had viral videos, we had the celebrity sex tape. They promised a glimpse of the rich and famous as they really are and showed beautiful people at their most intimate. They let us be voyeurs without leaving the couch. But when we watch one of these videos, what exactly are we looking at? Is it real - or carefully orchestrated to look that way? This series will expose the truth behind the titillation through a series of exclusive interviews of the celebrities who participated in sex tapes, the directors who filmed them, and the entrepreneurs who produced, traded and distributed them. This series will also weave together their stories with context from the journalists and cultural commentators who covered the biggest scandals from the early days of VHS trading through the Pam & Tommy online explosion, through the gold rush that came next, when celebs leaked videos, they hoped would make them rich.
