Interview with a Porn Star (#5) — Cherry Poppens

Cherry Poppens

IShootPorn: I think you’ve got one of the best porno names in the biz. How’d you dream it up?

Cherry Poppens: I was sitting on the couch with a big 2 foot bong and I was thinking all my managers keep telling me I need a last name! Then, something about Disney came to mind, and the fact that I had sang Supercalifragalisticexpealidocious when I was 10 years old for a recital made it all seem too perfect.

ISP: How long have you been in the game now?

CP: Today is my third year! To the day! I moved down here from Sac Town on December 2, and and shot my first scene. A solo. Then I left for Maui 3 days later. It was my second scene. I worked for Adult.com in Maui.

ISP: What’s the dumbest thing a director’s asked you to do?

CP: There’s been a lot of stupid shit…let’s see. Um…It’s hard to differentiate “stupid” from “sick”. Last week the dude came on a girl’s ass crack, the jizz dripped into my mouth, and as it was going into my mouth I noticed his cum was bright yellow. So I thought it might be ass juice, but it only turned out to be from an overdose of vitamins.

ISP: Name one scene you regret.

CP: Doing the black midget.

ISP: So we can’t talk about the time you fucked Lil’ Pimp?

CP: It was, um…jeez. It was the most embarrassing thing I’ve ever done that I’ve had to admit to, cause at that time I was in the mindset that what I do won’t be seen, so it really doesn’t matter. But you know what? People DO see it. That was the first porno everyone talked about in my hometown.

ISP: Is there any way you’d go steady with me?

CP: (Laughs) You live in Arizona. We’ve already talked about this.

ISP: How much longer till you’re out?

CP: Until I find something better to do.

ISP: You used to sing in a band. What was it called?

CP: X-Chromosome.

ISP: What did you play?

CP: Punk rock, motherfucker!

ISP: Anything else you wanna mention?

CP: Not really. I don’t think so.

Interview with a Porn Star (#4) — Brandy Talore

Brandy Talore

IShootPorn: Boy, I feel like a dope. I just learned that I’ve been mispronouncing your name since I first flipped out over your pics on LADirect’s site! How do you pronounce it?

Brandy Talore: Like Taylor. Only I spelled like I do cause someone owns BrandyTaylor.com, and I wanted that last name…so I’m Talore!

ISP: Please give me all your vitals.

BT: Well, all I’ll say is my birthday’s in February (Aquarius), and I’m from a small town in Ohio. I’m 5’2″ 125 lbs., I’ve got brown hair and brown eyes, and I’m a 36DDD! And, by the way, I’m all natural!

ISP: So what you’re saying is there’s not one drop of silicone in those bad boys??

BT: No there isn’t!

ISP: How’d you get in the biz?

BT: I modeled for about 3 years for different adult magazines, and I just decided to take the next step!

ISP: Can you name a few of the stroke mags?

BT: Well, I’m in the holiday issue of Busty Beauties…that’s my latest one on the stands. All in all I’ve appeared in about 30.

ISP: What do you like about the biz?

BT: Let’s put it this way – I like to fuck people and get paid for it.

ISP: So you’re an escort?

BT: Nope! Only on camera, you dirty man!

ISP: Do you like girls?

BT: Yes! I love girls! My very favorite is Sara Stone. She’s so cool. We’re very similiar. She’s got big boobs that are real. And she just told me she’s not doing b/g anymore!

ISP: Got a website right now?

BT: BrandyTalore.com is up, but it isn’t all ready yet. It’ll take you to WantBoobs.com for now.

ISP: How far off before it’s all you?

BT: Hopefully another month.

ISP: Anything else I left out?

BT: Um…(laughs). I dunno. I don’t know what else to say…I love porn!

Brandy Talore

Some things in my life I love, lately.

Karen Voight

The new Audioslave song Doesn’t Remind Me.
(And I have no idea why. I was never much of a Soundgarden fan, certainly not a Rage Against the Machine Fan…but damn, I love this song.)

Kung Fu Hustle.
(At the end, when our hero kicks ass, and the cat who got his ass kicked says “How did you do that?” and our hero says “Let me teach you…” well, that’s what it’s all about, my friends.)

Anything Andy Warhol ever did. Including his movies.
(Trust me, his movies are bad, too. Really awful.)

Some of my new websites.
(Duh.)

My new dog. To go along with my other dog.
(They love beating the shit out of each other, which allows me to get my work done.)

Vinyl.
(Cause nothing sounds as warm as analog.)

Might as well add my turntable. And tube amps.
(And I’ll say it again: nothing sounds as warm as analog.)

My new niece.
(She’s a princess, and no…no link. Sorry.)

The Honda Element.
(I don’t give a fuck how “boxy” you think they look.)

My blog.
(Damn Straight.)

Porn Star Blogs.
(Cause they’re almost as ridiculous as the girls themselves.)

The Canon GL2.
(Cause it still makes the best internet movies as far as I’m concerned.)

The Minion.
(Scroll under this entry, once you click the link. Oh, and Minion…time for some Chinese buffet, my brotha! Call Chico, too!!!)

Trying to do Yoga at home with a Karen Voight DVD.
(Right after she gets me into Downward Facing Dog I wish she’d take off all her clothes, so when I came back to table top, I could see her perfect MILF titties in all their splendid glory pointing right at me.)

How Much Money do Porn Stars Make?

Bailey

Happy Thanksgiving!

Today, I thought I’d talk about what pornstars are most grateful for…namely, the money they earn. Afterall, money is why they do what they do (or don’t do)…does that make sense?

However, I must be getting old. Have I posted something like this before? I feel like I have, somewhere. But I searched my own blog and didn’t find anything. Oh well. If I did, just look at the nudie pics I gave you guys today: I shot newbie Bailey Bliss right before her very first B/G/G scene (which she earned $900) and gave these to her, for her personal use. I think some of them showed up on her agent’s site – the very infamous Jim South of World Modeling.

With that, let’s start!

Current Female Rates for the Los Angeles area:

Solo partial nudity: $50 – $75 an hour
Solo full nude/masturbation: $100 an hour.
Handjobs: $150-$200
Blowjobs: $200-$300
G/G (girl-girl lesbo fun): $400-$800 a girl.
B/G (boy-girl sex): $700-$900.
B/B/G sex: add $100 per dick over her B/G rate.
Anal: $900-$1200
D/P (double penetration – one dick in your pussy and one in your ass at the same time): $1200-$1400
Gang Bangs (4 guys or more): $1400-$1600…again, add around $100 per dick to your limit, up to about 5, and then it’s just a flat rate.
Bukkake: Negotiable. Not many girls do bukkake, but they’re out there.

Current Male Rates for the Los Angeles area:

Solo full nude/masturbation to cumshot: $100-$200, depending on build/dick size.
Boy/Girl sex: $300-$1000, depending on dick size and performance reputation.

Anything gay, from BJ’s to fucking: $300-$3500, depending on factors I know nothing about…bascially, I’m going by part-rumor, part what I’ve seen other producers pay their talent. There’s also other factors like multiple partner gay sex, barebacking, and IR (interracial), and all sorts of shit that effect rates gay/gay-for-pay talent earn.

I really don’t know much about the fetish stuff – like B/D, watersports and whatnot – straight or gay.

Add $100 per girl if you’re getting them through an agency; add $50 per dude for the same thing.

Prices outside the Los Angeles area can drop anywhere from 10 – 40% below these rates. For example, I think the going rate for B/G sex in Phoenix, AZ, is around $500-600 for the girl, and $100-150 for the dude.

In the end, it really boils down to whatever the talent is willing to take for whatever it is you want them do to.

Oh…and if you mention the word “private” all bets are off. “Private” is a fancy way of saying you wanna fuck them off camera, treating your female (or male) talent like a common hooker. Some talent won’t even consider a private. I’ve heard of some talent being highly offended when they were offered private work; after all, they’re not hookers – they’re porn stars! And the ones who do privates get pretty big bucks. I’ve heard rumors (that are pretty substantial…that is, they came from great sources) of female talent earning $5000-$10,000 for a night of work in Vegas. Who knows…probably urban legend.

Or is it?

Top 5 Spunkmouth scenes – #1: Boo, Brandon Iron, and S.S.

Here's Boo!

We had shot Bella Donna a couple times, so she was hanging around Dogfart’s Secret Mansion every now and then. One day she strolled in with this blue-eyed brunette that simply blew me away. She had these piercing eyes and was wearing a skin-tight brown sweat suit and she was a B cupper – maybe even an A cupper – and her ass was big and firm and perfect. My God! She looked like the hottie at the bank that took your deposit…or the super-heet grocery store gal that just rang up your total. That sort of thing.

Did I mention I’m a sucker for blue-eyed brunettes?

Turns out her name was Boo D. Licious, but everyone called her Boo. She had just done her first scene and was looking for more work. Thing was, she didn’t do IR…and that was fine by me. Spunkmouth wasn’t launched yet, but I already knew – just by taking one look at her – that Spunkmouth’s finest was standing just a few feet away from me.

I decided to approach Bella Donna and ask her about Boo. Turns out Bella would book the scene for me…but who did I have in mind for male talent?

No one really knows this, but for a while we were shooting these crazy anal scenes for a web site that, to this day, has never materialized. When I tell you these were the most extreme anal scenes I’ve ever seen – let alone even shot – I’m not lying…or bragging. I can’t even get into a descriptive narrative on these scenes, except to tell you there were brutal. And they bordered on disturbing. Bella had given us an anal scene for the site-that-would-never-be, and it was the kind of scene only a talent like Bella Donna could give.

My point is, Brandon Iron was male talent for a lot of these anal scenes. He was hanging around that day. And he had noticed Boo as quickly as I had.

“Wanna do a scene with her?” I asked Brandon.

He looked at me like I just asked him the dumbest question in the world.

“Dude, I want to fuck her so bad I’ll do your scene for a huge discount. Just book it!”

I knew I was on to something: Boo D. Licious and Brandon Iron. What could be better? How about throwing another dude in the mix? S.S. came up to me…or I approached him…and he was so excited to fuck Boo he did the scene for free.

Dogfart agreed to take stills, while I rolled tape, and Bella Donna directed. Well…she didn’t really direct too much, but she watched and nodded in approval as Brandon and S.S. pounded poor little Boo silly. Here’s the inside scoop: since S.S. really hadn’t shot a lot of scenes, he had some minor wood problems…which is common for amateur male talent. I didn’t mind, cause just his banter with Brandon on the set was worth having him around. But what S.S. lacked during the scene, he made up with his massive cum shot. He just about blinded Boo.

Not too long after, Dogfart would leave the mansion. I went home. S.S. moved on to grad school and making real movies. Brandon is still alive and kicking and churing out great smut. Bella got married and pregnant and shaved her head. And Boo? Well, I saw her once do a Shane’s World thing…and then, not too long after, her agent listed her as only doing solo/g-g work.

And then she just disappeared, like they all do…

Here's Boo!

Top 5 Spunkmouth scenes – #2: Spring Thomas and Dr. Z

Here's Spring!

I met Spring Thomas before she was Spring Thomas…when she was still Serina – or Ryan – depending on what dirty site you were visiting. She was maybe a month past her 18th birthday, and she was ready to jump into the game…head first. I arranged a meeting with her downtown, at a breakfast joint, and when I caught a glimpse of her looking for a parking spot in her purple car, my heart skipped a beat or two.

It was Serina in that purple car.

I knew the Serina scene, and I knew Serina was one of the hottest chicks on Amature Allure. And since I was still a beginner at this whole porno game, it made things that much more…exciting.

Amature Allure was the other show in town, and in a goofy kind of way, I always felt like Spunkmouth was in some sort of porno competition with AmAllure…which, looking back at it now, is really silly. Still, I wanted to book hotter chicks than he did, and his Serina score was a big one; if I booked Serina, the score was tied, as far as I was concerned.

Like I said…silly.

Spring and I hit it off right away, and I remember talking to her about things I didn’t really talk about in interviews…like what I did before I got into The Biz. I felt comfotable around her, and I’m assuming she felt the same around me. I didn’t even wait to ask my partner if we should book her…I just did.

Dr. Z was the lucky dude. He fucked Spring Thomas for the very first time on camera. Spring did the bj scene for AmAllure a few weeks before, as well as some topless/girl-girl stuff for Sweet Apples.

But we got her on camera taking a dick into that tight teen pussy for the very fist time. In fact, when she jumps up to do Z in cowgirl, she admits to the world it’s the very first time in her life “on top” of a guy! I don’t remember much beyond that. Except she had a nervous giggle throught her scene, and she admitted to a foot fetish as she sucked Z’s toes…and Z shot the load all over her face. I snapped these quick pics after she cleaned up and was on her way out.

I guess I remember more than I thought I did…hence, this scene rates #2 for all the Spunkmouth episodes.

We booked Spring again, before I introduced her to the Blacks On Blondes folks, up on the top of that hill at Dogfart’s secret mansion. It was in that mansion she went from Spring to Spring Thomas.

And as they say…the rest is history.

Here's Spring!

Top 5 Spunkmouth scenes – #3: Tory Lane and Kevin Kline

Here's Tory!

Imagine you’re in a public park – maybe on a picnic – and you have to pee. And there’s a public toilet just down at the bottom of the hill. You tell your girlie you have to make a Number 1, and you head to the head.

And you walk in to find a heet taking a piss right in front of you. Get this – she doesn’t freak out. Oh sure, she’s nervous at first, then she smirks and asks, “Are you a man whore?”

Of course I am, my darling. Let’s just make this quick, cause my girl is at the top of the hill, breaking out the ham and cheese sandwiches, and if I’m not back soon, she may get a little curious.

Porn star Tory Lane is simply off the hook. I mean there’s almost no porno girls like her working the circuit right now. Don’t think she’s an actress, cause what you see in her fuck scenes is genuine; Tory simply loves sex. No wonder she quit Hooter’s, left Florida, and hit Porno Land. And do you think her recent marriage to Rick Shameless forced her out of the game? Well…for a short time she was only doing g/g and solo stuff…but that didn’t last long. I don’t know this for fact, but I can only imagine the “talk” she had with Rick.

I could imagine it went something like, “Um honey, I’m going to start fucking guys again. I mean I’m not making all that much money doing solo work and girls, and I kinda miss all that dick.”

Rick’s a cool cat, too. Maybe there was no “talk”. Who knows. Who cares, really.

I dunno if you’ve seen the Spunkmouth Tory Lane episode, but it’s one of the few times I’ve actually had my head spin while shooting the scene. Why? After our stranger blasts her face with man goo, she notices a large wad on the filthy floor. And without any direction from me, she got down on her hands and knees, crawled slowly over to the goopy mess, and sucked it right into her mouth…and then looked at me and spit it all right into my camera lens.

“Now turn the camera off!” she demanded.

What’s a guy to do? Except meekly say, “Um, Tory…you missed my lens. I mean that’s a really hot idea there….Um…well…um…can I ask you a big favor. I mean…um…really big? Can you do it again? And this time hit my lens?”

And how did Tory react? I was worried she’d get pissed and tell me to forget it. Once is enough. Certainly not be too happy about the deal. She did the whole thing…all over again. Crawled back, found some more spunk on the floor, sucked it up with a smile on her face. And this time – bullseye!

Since she’s doing guys again, I want to shoot her at least one more time – badly.

Is there any way she’ll do interracial?

Here's Tory!

Top 5 Spunkmouth scenes – #4: Envi and Jean Val Jean

Here's Envi!

Once upon a time, there was a barely-legal girl who decided to leave her home on the East Coast and make her way west – to Porn Valley – and become a star. She had just finished up high school, where she was a cheerleader. You know that had to put her in all the right cliques, almost insuring her popularity…especially with all the high school boys.

She got fake boobies and made her way west. When she got to Porn Valley she met up with a typical slimeball agent, began calling herself “Envi”, and started looking for work right away. She also met a new friend named Eva Angelina, and they became roomies.

Before he fucked me over, I used to book some of the girls Mr. Slimeball repped. When he told me a new heet named Envi was looking for her first scene, I booked her. So yea…I shot Envi first.

That and $4.85 will get me a venti Iced Caramel Macchiatto with soy at Starbucks.

And honestly, it’s not the the 100% truth I shot Envi first. I think she had a BJ scene under her belt before me…but that’s about it. Or put it this way – after her Spunkmouth scene, all the boys back home knew what she was up to in sunny California.

Jean Val Jean is in need of a good industrial accident. Don’t get me wrong – I like Jean a lot – but he’s too good looking for his own good.

And Eva Angelina has become the hottest chick in porn – even if she still thinks I’m a creep for the cummy hairdo.

Do I need to tell you not long after I shot Envi she changed her name to Eve Lawrence? And I shot her again, a few years later, cause she’s still fucking smoking hot, and she’s still in the biz, and she’s still one of my favs? I mean she’s 4th on the top list for Spunkmouth, damnit…out of like 100 or so episodes to date.

(For the second Spunkmouth Eve Lawrence shoot, we dressed her up like a street hooker, took her to a dirty back alley, and had a john fuck her silly on a filthy matress. Typical porno shit.)

I kinda want to go steady with Eve. Buy her a promise ring. Make some love with the lights off. Hold hands at the mall, while I’m buying her some presents. Take her to San Francisco and get a penthouse suite at the Mark Hopkins and never even leave the room…just drink expensive champagne and feed each other strawberries and smooch all night long. Then, when we return to Porno Land, I’ll be forced to suddenly end our relationship…cause Spring Thomas just left a voice mail saying she’s finally come to her senses and decided to fall in love with me.

Uh-huh.

Here's Envi!

Top 5 Spunkmouth scenes – #5: Kaya and Sean and Big Dick Nickel

Here's Kaya!

Everyone likes toplists, so I’ve decided, over the next few months, to make some toplists of the scenes I’ve shot for various sites. I’ll group each toplist by the site, and each day I’ll present an entry to the list, starting from the number 5 position and moving up. I’ll take into consideration the obvious (how hot the girl is, how hot the scene is, etc etc) as well as the not-so-obvious (girl’s attitude, her willingness to do various naughty things, etc etc). So let’s start.

#5: Spunkmouth Kaya – Kaya’s second Spunkmouth scene, starring Kaya, Sean, and Big Dick Nickel, was the very first b/b/g scene I ever shot. (“b/b/g” being “boy-boy-girl”, as opposed to a “2 on 1”, which was what I always called this sort of debauchery before I got into this biz.)

Big Dick Nickel was this local dude I met when I was running an ad for local amateur talent in a weekly rag that’s fairly popular in Phoenix. He started recruiting girls for me, not cause he wanted to help me out, but so he could fuck them while I rolled camera. Most of the girls this dude introduced me to were butt-ugly, but one stood out head and shoulders above almost anyone working the porn circuit today – and I mean the LA porno game…not the silly Phoenix porno game.

Kaya is a hint over 5 feet tall, and she weighed maybe 100 pounds…and trust me, 25 of those pounds were all tits. She’s cute and lovely and nice to talk with, and those sorts of qualities – even in a porno girl – score high in my book. She’s also part-Asian, which scores huge in a lot of dudes’ books, and her skin was soft and supple and perfectly tanned.

In other words – a total heet.

I had shot a scene with her and Sean already, and when I asked Kaya if she would like to work with Sean and Big Dick, she immediately agreed.

We shot the scene in an empty warehouse in Sunnyslope I had access to for a while. If you don’t know Phoenix, the suburb of Sunnyslope means nothing to you…and if you know Phoenix, then you know every crystal meth, MegaDeath worshippin’ dirthead, missin’ his front teeth and driving around town in a car with no air conditioning in 118 degree July heat, fondly calls home.

In other words, it’s a perfect place to shoot porn in Phoenix.

It was August, too, and there was no air in that place, but we had plenty of water, and I told Kaya and Sean and Dick that sweating a whole bunch during sex on film is really sexy…just cause I felt so bad for them. And boy, did they sweat. So did I, cause…well…it was a fucking sexy scene. Sean and Dick went to town on Kaya, and she loved every second of it.

Kaya went away after I shot this. I tried to call her for more work, but she was out of the game. Word had it that family members discovered her work, and she was forced to toss in the towel. What a shame…she coulda been a great one. I think I told you guys this, too…but a year or so ago, a pal of mine was eating at a corporate establishment, and who waited on him?

You guessed it.

Here's Kaya!

Mid-Life Suckage.

Kinzy Jo

I can feel my libido dying a slow death. I’ve noticed it now for about the last year or so, and funny enough, it coincides with my need to wear glasses when I read.

It also coincides with the beginning of my fourth decade, which is just a fancy way of saying I’ll be 42 soon.

What the fuck? Is this common? I mean going blind and not caring a whole lot about bird dogging some beaver? Will I suddenly feel the need to drive a Corvette? Shit! Suddenly, I’m not feeling the need to beat off 3 times a day, nor do I find myself daydreaming about sex. Maybe this is a good thing? My eyes still wander when I go to the Safeway store near campus; the coed cuties that walk around 1/2 naked in the frozen food aisle still do it for me. Nipples everywhere! I even took a picture from my camera phone…all stealth-like…of two heets in line buying food. Then, I sent it to Spring Thomas just to hear her reaction; she text messaged me back something like “you old pervy bastard” – and that made me feel kinda ok.

I don’t even really get that turned on when I’m shooting a scene, even if it’s hot new talent. Shit, I didn’t even really care when I shot an interracial lesbo movie; even when the girls both took turns getting fucked.

What’s wrong with me?

Take, for example, the latest photo set I shot with barely-legal Kinzy Jo. She’s dangling her bra at you right now. I think she’s a cutie-pie, and she’s really nice, and she’s got great tits, and blah blah blah…but I realized, as I was shooting the set, nothing was going on whatsoever. I mean I coulda been moving a pile of rocks from one side of the yard to the other. Or selling a car. Or teaching some students. Or shooting a really cute barely-legal with a shaved pussy and perky teen tits. It’s all the fucking same to me these days.

I can’t believe this is happening.

Here’s another winner of a story – I get a late-night call from Spring Thomas. She’s at a bar, and some dudes are hassling her cause she’s Spring Thomas. Turns out the dudes are all my little brother’s pals. (My little bro is 15 years younger than me). She’s upset, and she wants me there to ask them to stop. So I show up. I say hi to them, and ask them very nicely to leave her alone. And to my surprise, they get hostile with me. Really hostile. Like they wanna kick my ass. They’re pimping me, and making fun of me, and elbowing me really hard as I’m trying to talk sense to them…and it was then I realized these fuckers not only could give me a run for my money…they could beat me up. One of the last times I saw them, it was 1992 and they were in front of my parents’ TV set, wrestling with Legend Of Zelda; now, they’re wrestling a gin and tonic and they’re getting ready to wrestle me down to the ground.

So I did the best I could, and I called Little Bro for back-up. If I was 25, this wouldn’t be happening.

But I’m not 25. I’m almost 42. And trust me – losing your sex drive, losing the ability to read anything smaller than a 14 point foint, as well as the ability to pound the shit out of loud-mouth punks – sucks balls.

Maybe it’s time for a little testosterone therapy. Those little booster shots you get from the doc to take things up a few nothes. Anyone here have any experience with them? Cause it’s either that or continue my drive down Pussy Lane. Which is right down the street from Whimpy Drive. Near Pansy Avenue.

You get the idea.
