Pornhub wants to be your Valentine this year.
Whether you’re celebrating with your valentine – or palentine, as people trying to sell us more tat than you can shake a stick at have coined it – Pornhub want you to know they’re thinking of you on this day of love.
So much so, they’ve sent you a little gift. It’s not pink-themed chocolates which taste sour in your mouth. It’s not a bunch of overpriced roses which will die in a week. It’s not a teddy bear stuffed with romantic anxieties spurred on by societal and commercial pressures.
It’s free porn! And it’s premium porn, too, to make your day extra classy like Kanye!
As with last year, Pornhub have unlocked all of their premium content on the site – which you usually have to pay a pretty penny for – and released it to the public on this most lovely of days.
Their premium content will be free for non-paying users for the 24 hours of Valentine’s Day in a ‘no strings’ attached kind of deal.
If that’s not enough, they’ve also created a mixtape for us! So cute, you guys – apart from the fact it’s largely lyrical filth. But Pornhub is nothing if not on brand.
The album is in collaboration with Create Music Group and includes six tracks by the likes of Tekashi 6ix9ine, PnB Rock, Lil AK, Lil Xan, Asian Doll, 24hrs, MadeinTYO and Blac Chyna.
The Vice President of Pornhub, Corey Price, expressed the inspiration behind the album, which you can listen to below, in a press release.
He said:
To help ease the stress of planning the perfect Valentine’s Day, we wanted to show our fans some love by curating an album so seductive that it would make Cupid himself blush — and is guaranteed to end your night with a bang.
With over 100 million people visiting Pornhub daily, we know what gets people in the mood.
When you feel like the night is about to reach its crescendo, dim the lights and throw this album on. You’ll thank us later.
While traffic tends to dip 10 per cent from 6pm to midnight on Valentine’s Day night, the porn streaming service Pornhub reported traffic to the site increased by 308 per cent on February 14 alone in past years, compared to the monthly average.
The site’s top-gaining search on Valentine’s Day was for ‘premium lesbian’ content, FYI.
Happy Valentine’s, folks!
