When you think of juggalos, especially naked juggalettes, you don’t normally think of hot ladies, but Pepper Kester is a babe. I met her in my adventures at the Gathering of the Juggalos two years ago, but it wasn’t until last year that I had a conversation with her. She was selling cigarettes topless and I took her photo and she mentioned that I took her photo at the AVN Awards too. It turns out Pepper is not only a jugalette but she is also a porn babe. I found out she lives in LA and we decided that next time I was out there we would have to do a photo shoot.

A month later I was in LA and I headed out to Pepper’s place in the valley to do a photo shoot. Everybody “loves” my juggalo photos so of course I had her wear some Psychopathic Records gear for the shoot. We shot in Pepper’s back yard where her Bunny lives so you can catch him in the background of a shot or too. That thing is pretty awesome.  The photos are pretty sexy and Pepper is pretty bendy and the light is lovely so you should look at them.

Danny Brown was one of my favorite parts of the Gathering of the Juggalos. He’s hilarious, I dig his music and I totally did not exepect him to be at the Gathering of the Juggalos. Maybe I should have. He and ICP are both from Detroit and they clearly have a mutual respect for each other. This video of Danny Brown at the Gathering is a better view of what the Gathering is like than that American Juggalo documentary.  Every time I go there I always think about how I wish I could be in the car of some of these rap acts as they are driving into the Gathering and this shows that experience perfectly. The Gathering is a special place, as fucked up as it is, and it’s awesome to see someone like Danny Brown appreciate how fucking wild the Gathering really is.

On top of that there is a real good shot of me taking Danny’s photo at the 3:54 mark…

This is it! The last Gathering of the Juggalos update! For many it may seem that the Gathering is a horrifying place full of scary clowns and drugs and naked fat people, but it’s also very beautiful. Cave In Rock, IL is on the Ohio River on the border of Kentucky and Illinois and it is a gorgeous place if you can look past all the nitrous tanks and stretch marks. My very last gallery from the Gathering is some lovely landscapes and such things that made sense all together in one place. Despite the mysterious juggalaids sickness that I still have I miss the Gathering already and I cannot wait until next year to get back and take more crazy fucking photos.

I guess I don’t have anything more to say that hasn’t been said in the dozens of updates I have posted since returning, so I guess this is it. I am going on vacation. See you guys next week.

My 2012 Gathering of the Juggalos coverage is sadly coming to an end. I have one more update after this one and I think we are going to have to save it for tomorrow just because I am currently on a train headed out of town on vacation. I am staying the night in DC and don’t actually leave for the beach until tomorrow evening so I will have time to get the last update done then.

This post is the bulk of what’s left. We have all the shots of just juggalos hanging out. This is the party picture type stuff that didn’t fit in anywhere else. There are a lot of half naked jugalettes in here but for the most part it’s at least reasonably safe for work. If you were at the Gathering and you are looking for the photos I took if you they are probably in this gallery. It’s over 200 images of juggalos, juggalos and more juggalos… and a couple of juggalo dogs. So sift through this stuff and enjoy all the crazy mother fuckers that make the Gathering my favorite event to photograph.

And Juggalos… if you don’t see yourself in here maybe you are in the Juggalo Portrait gallery or if you happen to be a juggalette and you had your shirt off you probably ended up in the Naked Juggalette gallery.

So until tomorrow…

Every year I cover The Gathering of the Juggalos by FAR the most popular post is the naked juggalette photos. In 2010 I gave it the catchy title of “Juggalo Porn” and then I got yelled at because it’s juggalettes so in 2011 I called it “Juggalette Porn” but this year the post is just going to be called “Naked Juggalettes” mostly because I am already on the first page of google for Juggalette Porn so I figured I would try something else. Gotta get those page views!

Speaking of page views I think I know why this stuff does so well. When I post photos of hot naked chicks a ton of people look at them but they don’t show their friends because sharing porn is creepy. But with the juggalettes there are enough fat ones and crack headed looking ones that it’s funny to share them with your friends even though we all know you are secretly jerking off to this stuff. Don’t lie. I know you.

So get fucking excited because today I am finally bringing to you 91(!) photos of naked or at least topless juggalettes for your pleasure and horror. This is the post you have been waiting for so show your friends this madness already. Tweet and Facebook this shit and do whatever you must to show the world these clearly life changing and of course photos. Make sure you send these not safe for work photos to your friends while they are at work. Thank you for your time. That is all. And now without further ado…

I grew up watching WWF Wrestling Superstars in the 1980s and then again in the late ’90s I watched a little more wrestling when WCW/NWO were having a Monday night ratings war with WWF or WWE or whatever the fuck it is/was but by 2001 I was pretty much out of wrestling. That’s not to say I don’t appreciate the sport and I certainly could talk wrestling with someone relatively competently. I just don’t have the same interest in it as I did as a kid.

The Insane Clown Posse has their own wrestling league called Juggalo Championship Wrestling or the JCW. They host a main event called Bloodymania at the Gathering every year (I shot Bloodymania 4) and I was tempted to photograph this years chapter but by the time Bloodymania 6 rolled around on Sunday I was pretty much over taking photos. I shot nearly 7000 shots in the 5 days I was at the Gathering so I was ready to call it quits. I had an idea that I would hang out backstage and maybe get some wrestling portraits.

I didn’t know what the rules about photographing wrestling behind the scene, I know it would be terrible etiquette to photograph the heels and the heroes next to each other and I didn’t know enough about the events of the evening to figure out who was who so I asked Upchuck the Clown, the host of the evening, what I should do.  He decided to introduce me to an old wrestler who was running the promotion who then proceeded to yell to all the wrestlers that I was from the Insane Clowns and I wanted to “make their picture” and put it on the “Psychopathic Internets”.  He also told me that when I got the photos developed I should send him 8″x10″s.  He kept calling wrestlers by their wrong names insisting, for example, that the Headbangers were called the Head Hunters. At one point in the evening I was trying to photograph a wrestler in the pitch blackness that was the back stage area and I hit something on the camera which caused the auto focus to fail so I went back in the tent to get some light. The promoter saw me there and when he realized my camera wasn’t working he accused me of not being a professional and asked me where my photography shop was. The whole thing was sort of amazing and three hours later when I was losing my mind with exhaustion I couldn’t stop laughing thinking about him. One of my fellow journalists actually started crying laughing when I told her the story. The dude was bad ass though and introduced me to some wrestlers to get some pictures.

The last thing I will say is that it’s pretty depressing seeing what wrestling has done to some of these older guys. To anyone who doesn’t think professional wrestling is a sport spend an hour back stage before a wrestling match and you will see the pounding these guys have taken over their whole careers and see what athletes these guys really are. This gallery is pretty small because I was just taking a few shots here and there but if you are a fan of wrestling of any era you will recognize a bunch of these guys.

This is my favorite post of all the Gathering of the Juggalos posts this year. Yeah the naked juggalettes I am going to post tomorrow will get the most traffic but this gallery is my favorite portraits from the festival. I decided to shoot a lot of these day time portraits at F 2.8 so it would give a low depth of field and blow out the background just like I would if I were doing a proper photo shoot. I probably should do that whenever shooting day time event stuff because I am really happy with the results.

Juggalos are one of my favorite subjects and a number of these people I got to talk to for a long time before or after I took their photo. I met a number of people who had helped destroy a guys car who had been kicked out of the Gathering for stealing. One of those guys was homeless and he had spent a month and a half walking from Oregon to get to the Gathering. While he was at the festival he had all of his belongings stolen and was walking around with the catalytic converter from the thief’s car so that he could sell it to help fund the next leg of his journey. I talked to some juggalos who came all the way from Poland to be there and they were so excited to make the pilgrimage to The Gathering. I talked to people I had met in years past who were now fans of my website and couldn’t wait to see the new shots. I talked to a kid who was on work release and told his parole officer he was “working” the festival. The last time I saw him he was drunk driving a limo through the festival grounds. And I talked to a lot of interesting people who came from all over to be at this festival for the best five days of their year.

This gallery also has some nude juggalette photos in here so it’s properly not safe for work but those photos will show up again in the massive NSFW gallery I am going to be posting of nothing but naked juggalettes tomorrow. Every year that is by far the gallery that gets the most traffic so get excited about it. I still have one more gallery to post later tonight but until then…

One of the main differences between this years Gathering of the Juggalos coverage and years past is that I was actually working for the festival as their photographer. After covering it for the last two years I convinced them that it would be a good idea to have an in house guy and I was that guy. My all access pass got me backstage so I got a lot of shots that no one else had. The problem was that on the main stage the backstage is just a field with trailers in it so there is almost no light back there so every photo taken at night had to be just shot with flash with no fill light in the background or anything. I still got a lot of cool shots but they probably aren’t as nice as they could have been if we weren’t standing in pitch black darkness. Just saying…

Highlights for me were shooting the Geto Boys in clown make up with ICP, meeting Onxy and  The Pharcyde, getting to shoot George Clinton and having Bushwick Bill spray me with spray paint. Okay, that last one might not have exactly been a highlight but it was at least really weird. Anyway, there is a bunch of cool stuff in this gallery and you should check it out.

Even if you hate the Insane Clown Posse you have to admit the Gathering of the Juggalos is a pretty cool thing of them to do for their fans. Juggalos get five days of their favorite bands, mixed with a ton of huge nationally touring acts, comedy, nudity and a BBQ all for $175. It seems like a pretty good deal. How often does your favorite band feed you hot dogs and hamburgers?

By day five nothing at the Gathering of the Juggalos is surprising but if you take a minute to realize what is happening at Violent  J’s Beach Boy BBQ Blowout Bash it’s pretty surreal. You have this hugely famous musician in full clown make up wearing a god damned lei with his Air Jordans serving free food to half naked juggalos while DJ Clay spins a mix of Beach Boys songs and Psychopathic Records hits all leading up to a Michael Jackson cover band.

Seriously, there is a Michael Jackson cover band who played called Who’s Bad?  That’s not a question, that’s just the name of the band… and they were bad ass. Violent J claimed they were his favorite Michael Jackson cover band which I would imagine is not a huge stretch, although I also wouldn’t be surprised if Violent J runs a Michael Jackson tribute band review blog on the side. At this point nothing about ICP surprises me.  So yeah, let’s recap… Michael Jackson cover band, clown rapper serving hot dogs, Beach Boys and “wicked” juggalo music being spun by a DJ and topless girls on stage being sprayed with water guns full of Faygo. Oh, I didn’t mention that last part yet? Yeah we can safely mark this gallery NSFW.  Moving on…
