Abstract
In this article, I assess French-Canadian and Métis star Ariel Rebel's performance in the docu-porn Threesome (2015). There, Rebel details her biography, then a ménage à trois experience. This leads her to masturbate. The film blurs documentary and fiction: her fictional sex act disrupts the anecdote. Rather than address this rupture, users' comments praise Rebel's storytelling and she responds in turn. Trending fetishes as indicators of a public's porn use thus fail to reflect users' engagement with performers as microcelebrities (para-social interaction) and undermines performers' efforts to solicit fans' attention through performative authenticity.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
