So all three of us meet Courtney and him were on our lives, and he ended up doing great. That's amazing. I really got into it, and so that's awesome.

00:12:59:16 - 00:13:14:14 Unknown He's. He's a great guy. I, my husband and I, we know him. We go to the same gym. So he's super cool. But I'm like, dude, you gotta come. And one time I caught him on his birthday. He invited us and I'm like, you got to come on the show. He's like, I want to. I'm like, what? But I think he was a little tipsy when he said that.

So you got into this industry? Yes. At 32. 32. Why so late? Not. But like, normally, people who get into this industry are going to start in their 20s.

00:13:35:20 - 00:13:56:21 Unknown Right. So how? Fresh. Outright. Right? Yeah, yeah. So for me, I guess the simple back story would be. I was very sheltered. I had a boyfriend from 15 to 27, 28 years old. He was like, you know, this Spanish hip hop DJ. And I met him, you know, and then I met. I was with him when I graduated.

00:13:56:21 - 00:14:14:17 Unknown I was he was deejaying, you know, the whole time I was with him and I was working retail, and I was very, very sheltered. So I didn't get to to live out the the wild college years, the wild 20s and all that. So when I finally, like, realized like, this is not the life that I want to live.

00:14:14:18 - 00:14:30:05 Unknown Like I loved being a retail manager. It was a lot of fun, but I was like, there's more for me. This guy is is not he, like literally? He didn't let me do anything. He kept me in the DJ booth when he was DJ and so I couldn't even enjoy the event. So, you know, eventually, like it came to an end.

00:14:30:09 - 00:14:51:06 Unknown And at that time, I was the store manager at Lacoste in the Houston Galleria. Stands back when the crocodile was cool, right? Yes. Now it's like, man. Yeah, exactly. And that's what happened to all the brands, right? But but yeah. So I moved to Miami and I was going to work at the Belle Harbor store. Okay. And, you know, one thing led to another, and I shot a porn.

00:14:51:06 - 00:15:09:08 Unknown And a week later, I moved to LA. So you just like. Oh, wait, I just shot a porn. Wait, more to that. How did you shoot? Just shoot a porn movie. So that's crazy, right? Like it just happened. It just happened casually. You know, it's like. It was like it was a series of events that happened within a two week period.

00:15:09:09 - 00:15:28:19 Unknown So I met a dude, and he was like, you know, you're in Miami. You should escort. And then it was he. Then he was like, I'm also a porn agent. And then I met one of the company owners out there. It was all happened all in the same time frame, and they're like, come check out this video. I went on a set and saw a video and then, like, you should do it.

00:15:28:20 - 00:15:44:06 Unknown No one's going to know. Just try it and see if you like it. It'll help you if you escort, it'll help you do this and that and that. And I was like, fuck it. I'll shoot one. No one's gonna know. Yeah, well, now everyone knows. I woke up the next morning. They put it out that night. No way.

00:15:44:07 - 00:16:04:10 Unknown I woke up the next morning, got on my scooter in Miami, was riding around going to the store, and I lived. My apartment was right next to a scooter rental place. Okay. And so all the guys knew me and they were all like, oh my God, no way. The next day, next morning. Like it literally was one day, not even hours that it popped out.

00:16:04:11 - 00:16:21:22 Unknown Yeah. And then everybody knew and I was like, oh, wow, okay, this is wild. But I had so much fun on, like, I had so much fun. And you're like, I'm going to keep doing this. Yeah. So I shot a movie the next day. Oh my God. After that, then I shot a movie the next day. I think I did for 4 or 5 of them here in a row.

00:16:22:02 - 00:16:38:23 Unknown Wow. Like the original mILF hunter, like that was, I don't know, you have to look that one up. It's crazy. That is. Yeah, but it was like Bang Bros and Reality Kings. And then they linked me up with Lisa. And she used to be a porn agent. A lot of people don't know that. Okay. They link to me up with her.

00:16:39:01 - 00:16:58:02 Unknown It took my little porn checks, my days of checks, got my U-Haul and went straight to LA. Get out. That is awesome. Found a little place and I was shooting every single day so that that is really random. You were just like, okay, retail. And then you should try to film this. Yeah, you do good. And then bang, you do for more scenes.

00:16:58:02 - 00:17:16:14 Unknown That's crazy. It's hard for some people to wrap their minds around how I'm just, like, super spontaneous. And I'm still like that to this day. I love that I was so sheltered, like, and, you know, my boyfriend, I didn't realize that that's how relationships we never do, right? I didn't understand it. And so, like, I just thought it was normal.

00:17:16:14 - 00:17:32:22 Unknown I thought it was normal and there was so many things. It's like I live with a constant FOMO. Yeah. Because that's that's how I started to feel. And so. Yeah. So I was like, girls gone wild, everybody. I just went crazy. And I'm still I literally still like that today. You're still catching up on that lost time with him.

00:17:33:01 - 00:17:53:00 Unknown Tell everybody. But did he ever find out? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Like quickly. Soon after he found out. Like, if you're, you're like, a few years later. And then he. He asked for money. Actually. Stop. That's for money. No way. Yeah, that is wild. I do feel though, like I was in a in a previous relationship that wasn't great.

00:17:53:00 - 00:18:11:15 Unknown And I was in there for five years, and I kept telling myself that, like, I was like, there's going to be something so good for me after this. Yeah, right. Like, I just believed it. I'm like, the next guy I'm with is the guy, right? And that is it. Right. And then I'm. And then we. I've known him my whole life.

00:18:11:15 - 00:18:30:08 Unknown I've known him since I'm six. But, like, we were neighbors, right? So. But then we we we started dating, and I'm like, okay, this is it. So did you ever feel like I'm going to get out of this one day and my life is going to be different? Yes, I did. I always had that feeling. I was like, there's more for me than living right now.

00:18:30:09 - 00:18:57:04 Unknown Yeah. Because you were with him for like 15 to 27, like 12 years. And you know what? What you know, what helps that whole process happen is that I was managing the store in the Galleria. So at that time it was like, you know, DeCamp Mutombo was playing on the rockets. Patrick Ewing was the assistant coach. They would come in the store and flirt with you and buy shirts from you, and you had all these rappers and all these people, and you start seeing all these people and you're like, this is like really, really cool.

00:18:57:04 - 00:19:12:09 Unknown And like, I started going to parties. I started going to clubs. Yeah. So but like, you were a kid, you were you were literally a kid when you started dating him. I was and then he doesn't let you do anything. Started going. No, no. You're good. No. Yeah. He just didn't let me do anything. And so men like that.

00:19:12:11 - 00:19:26:20 Unknown So once I got that job, like, it just opened up a whole new world for me. It was just like all these cool things started happening at the mall, and I was like, wait, this life is awesome. Like, I think that I could enjoy this life a lot more than, yeah. So I'm like, I kind of want to be single.

00:19:26:20 - 00:19:45:07 Unknown And then it just happened. Yeah. You broke up with him? I sure did. You fucked him out of my apartment, right? Get out of here. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. So that's awesome. And how did your friends react? And your family when they found out what you were doing? It took my mom about, I don't know. It's been 19 years since I started 18 and 19 years.

00:19:45:07 - 00:20:01:03 Unknown It took my mom ten years, accepted. It did. And then eventually she was. And I love her. She's a sweetheart. Eventually she was like, you know what? Like, I love you no matter what. I'm not going to judge you like I'm sorry I judged you in the beginning. And she just wants to be, like, best friend. So. Yeah, that's.

00:20:01:05 - 00:20:19:18 Unknown Yeah. Great. Sorry I judged you for ten years, but please forgive me. I draw the line and it's okay. Like, I get it, I for sure. Forget it. I mean, I feel like people in the industry were not judgmental, but the rest of the people, like, they just don't. They don't quite get it right. So, yeah, it's hard.

00:20:19:19 - 00:20:36:03 Unknown It's hard. But, you know, like we're from Texas, so we have like these good southern values. Yeah. I was like, I completely understand where my mom came from. I'm still like that a little bit today. Over the 19 years, I take breaks when I fall in love. Oh yeah. Because morally I'm like, oh, I can't, can't do this, I can't do that.

00:20:36:04 - 00:20:54:06 Unknown Yeah. And so would you ever be with somebody that wouldn't let you do this? So I was secretly married for two years. Oh, no one knows that. I mean, fans kind of know I put my real name on my Instagram now. Okay, so people saw the last name change, so I, you know, I just kind of kept a secret for a while.

00:20:54:07 - 00:21:14:13 Unknown But yeah, I made some sacrifices over those two years. It's been six months since we got divorced or filed for divorce. So yeah, because this is recent. It's very recent. Oh yeah. And and my fans always notice it. They're like, we always know when you're in a relationship because you kind of fall back. Step back. And I did I stopped shooting mainstream for almost two years.

00:21:14:14 - 00:21:35:12 Unknown And yeah. So I mean that's fine. Especially nowadays. Like we have only fans right. And we could do our own content without depending on right on big production companies. Yeah. What was it like the first time you shot? Like what was going through your mind? Were you just like, since you had a lot of FOMO? We were just like, you know, I don't give a shit.

00:21:35:13 - 00:21:53:11 Unknown I'm just. I'm like, what were you thinking? Well, you know, because of that relationship, I had a lot of insecurities. Oh, yeah. So it was great. I showed up and I'm like, I'm just going to tell you guys right now, I'm literally shaking. I'm really nervous. And I'm like, don't worry, there's no script today. Yeah. Because, you know, that's what they do for new girls.

00:21:53:11 - 00:22:08:12 Unknown There's not a big script until they know if they can act or not. So. Right. You know, they just had me like they dressed me up. They did my makeup. Everyone on sets like, yes, yes, beautiful, gorgeous. You know, hyping you up. Yeah. They hyped me up and they treated me so good. I was like, this is fun.

00:22:08:13 - 00:22:32:19 Unknown Like, I literally can do this every day. That's awesome. And I did. It's been 1930 every day for 90 years and it's been 19 years. So definitely. Would you say that you prefer like the DVD era or because you you had to adapt, obviously, right. Oh, yeah. How was that? Oh, the DVD era was insane. Like, imagine you want to see porn, you got to go to the fricking.

00:22:32:21 - 00:22:48:00 Unknown You got to go to the store and pick up a DVD, right? That's not crazy. That is crazy. So today, I would say, like my main goal during mainstream is to get a top ad, okay? And a top ad is where your scene is a lot longer. They get a lot more footage. There's like usually a longer script, bigger budget.

00:22:48:00 - 00:23:01:12 Unknown And then you click on the main site like on browsers and you're at the very top and that's what you go for. Now as a top ad, back then, you wanted to be on the cover of the DVD. There was always like 4 or 5 movies, you know, in a box, and you wanted it to be the box cover.

00:23:01:12 - 00:23:15:18 Unknown That was the goal. So yeah. Were you ever a box cover? Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah, like so many times. Oh, nice. Yeah, yeah, I've been on the box cover. Well, it would always be like when, when it came out, you'd be like, damn, I didn't make it. Oh, so you don't know like, you find out once it comes out.

00:23:15:19 - 00:23:35:15 Unknown Yeah, that kind of stuff. And you have to flip it over in the back and be like, oh, right, there's some words over my butt, but there I am. So social media and Instagram is a big factor to our success now a days back in the day, obviously it wasn't the case. How did you adapt with that? Because I still feel like I struggle with that.

00:23:35:16 - 00:23:55:14 Unknown Like with Instagram, it's like you always got to be on. You always gotta like poster reel, trying to make it go viral. Was that a big transition for you? No, because I love, I love I'm a creative like I love even for my only fans. Like I make these long, crazy storylines. Really? Yeah. So I enjoy it's for me, it's like I'm a big kid.

00:23:55:15 - 00:24:22:03 Unknown Yeah, yeah. So it's like playing dress up for me. And I like making, you know, making up silly things like silly reals to do and stuff. So it's fun, I enjoy it. What's your favorite like role play to play? I mean, I stepmom is what they always cast me as okay in films and stuff, but I don't know, I like cosplay, like dressing up and constantly like, yeah, like I have a I Dream of Jeannie movie and like, yeah, we put the graphics in there to like, the clouds and the smoke and we rub the thing.

00:24:22:04 - 00:24:41:19 Unknown It's cute. So you don't feel like Instagram is another full time job. It is a full time job, but it's just something that I enjoy. You enjoy doing doing it. Yeah. That's good. Okay, so you've worked with a lot of big names. Yes. Okay, I'm gonna ask you a few questions. Okay. You. If you don't feel comfortable putting people on the spot, that's totally fine.

00:24:41:21 - 00:25:01:22 Unknown Okay. But we'll try. Okay. Who made you laugh the hardest? Oh, goodness. Who made me laugh the hardest recently like Jason. Jason. Love scene. Jason. I did I did see your your on on X yesterday. Jason. He's a funny guy. Yeah, yeah, they're really funny. Him and his assistant. They're awesome. I had so much fun shooting at his house.

00:25:01:23 - 00:25:17:06 Unknown Yeah, it's it's so good when people are easygoing and just, like, even when people come on the pod, you know, like, I like to get to know them a little bit. I like to have a conversation before we just sit down. Right. Yeah. For sure. You know, when you just go somewhere and you're like, sit down. Unless. Whoa.

00:25:17:07 - 00:25:37:10 Unknown Like, let's get to know each other a little bit. Right. So that's good. Who's the biggest professional? Shari Deville okay. Who's the biggest? Devi could be a man as well. Who's the biggest diva? Please make it. A man made a man. So let's do it both ways. You know who's the biggest ever male and say, Kieran Lee? Yeah.

00:25:37:11 - 00:25:59:23 Unknown No way. You were Lee. We got it. We got a tag and. Karen, darling, what in the audience just said that Karen gets you. Who always kept the energy high on set. Who always keeps the energy myself. You know? No. Like, who always keeps. I mean, I've been having so much fun shooting with my friend Courtney. Silly, like.

00:26:00:00 - 00:26:17:06 Unknown And we just feed off of each other. That's amazing. Yeah, it's so great. It's so fun to mentor somebody who's just, like, completely open to it. It's fun. Yeah, because it's very hard to mentor people that yes, I have. Hard time. Yeah. Like, I sometimes like, you know, my husband knows a lot more than me and sometimes talks.

00:26:17:06 - 00:26:41:12 Unknown I'm like, fuck up. Yeah. Like, don't tell me what to do. You know, but if you have somebody who wants to learn, that's that's definitely a big plus who checks themselves out in the mirror the most. Me. I'm laughing because Courtney did a scene recently with a dude, and he stared at himself the entire time. Really? And he asked to shoot me, and I was like, no, I probably I'll, I mean, if I do it, it'll be comical.

00:26:41:15 - 00:27:03:07 Unknown And he literally stared at himself in the job doing that. Yeah, really. Okay, so speaking of you and Courtney, since you guys are friends, does that ever get weird when you guys shoot a scene together? No, not at all. Not at all. No. Like you guys will. You know, I ate like, six times last night. Wow. Like, we had a tip menu for our live show, and that's.

00:27:03:07 - 00:27:18:06 Unknown And, you know, that was like the number one, the number one request. I wanted to talk. Of course. Yeah. It's working. Twerking is a I love when people tip for a fucking work. Like, I'll fucking work all day if you want. Oh, yeah, I am approach worker. Are you? I can throw it in circle. I can do a square.

00:27:18:07 - 00:27:26:16 Unknown Oh, no, I'm not that good. Let's sideways clap and make it clap. Clap and close. I got it all. No way. Oh, yeah. Talent.

00:27:26:17 - 00:27:48:06 Unknown And who is the funniest? After the camera stop. Oh, who is the funniest after the camera stops? Goodness, it's so hard to like. Think of choose one person because everybody's so much fun. Yeah. You know who's really, like, cute and funny is Damian de Ski Damian. He's like. He's like low key, like sweet and giggly. Just like really goofy afterwards.

00:27:48:07 - 00:28:07:17 Unknown Yeah. That's funny. He's more professional when you start. But then afterwards goofy, he just opens up. I love he's really cool. Dude. Johnny sends you films with him. I have not. You have not? I have not. Oh isn't that. He's like the one dude left on the list. How? Why has that not happened? I don't know, we just never been booked together.

00:28:07:18 - 00:28:24:05 Unknown Have you guys like. But he would reach out just to do, like, off content? No. Yeah. I mean, I feel like maybe I messaged him, I message everybody. I feel like maybe message him, but he's like the one. Dude, I don't think I've shot with him. Oh, well, then that scratches those questions that I have. We'll have to connect with him now.

00:28:24:06 - 00:28:26:06 Unknown Isn't that crazy?

00:28:26:08 - 00:28:49:14 Unknown Okay. So you were recently on the Ryan Pownall. I don't even know how to. Pownall. Powell. Powell. I think it's Powell. Powell. Anyways, you were on his pod, and your episode dropped the day that all the controversy happened in Miami. Tell us a little bit about that. Yes, I was I was literally on safari in South Africa with my mom.

00:28:49:16 - 00:29:10:08 Unknown I'm like a family vacation. And my girl messages me and she's like, oh my gosh, did you see it? And I'm like, my podcast dropped like the next day after all that big thing happened in Miami, and I shot that a month before, and I went on there with my, my famous stepdaughter Stella. Okay. She invited me to go at the last minute.

00:29:10:08 - 00:29:26:21 Unknown And so I popped on and I was like, yeah, cool. That's what it looks like, a fun podcast. He looks ward and crazy and I'm wild and crazy. So yeah, it was a month later and it happened to be the day after all that drama happened. So, you know, I thought that some of the decisions that were made weren't cool.

00:29:26:23 - 00:29:45:04 Unknown And so, you know, I did what I felt like I needed to do to do to to. Yeah. So did you get any hate for it? I did not there were a couple of comments on there, but I think everybody knew, like they knew we didn't shoot it that night like 1,000%. Clearly there's always going to be comments.

00:29:45:04 - 00:30:02:01 Unknown There's always comments. Yeah. So but yeah, you know, I did what I thought I needed to do for sure as a responsible, you know, because a lot of people like learn for me. So I made the right decisions after the fact. That's good to do what you had to do. We won't get into details, but you did what you had to do.

00:30:02:07 - 00:30:18:19 Unknown So would you say, in your opinion, for somebody who's starting out today in this industry. Do you think it's easier for them to get famous now, or was it easier back in the days? Goodness. So I was just telling Courtney about this. So back in the day, the way it worked is we used to do go seas.

00:30:18:19 - 00:30:35:07 Unknown So you would get that. So you would go with your agent and your agent. You'd be in LA. Your agent would take you around to all the major studios, and you would have to go in and do, like, an in-person interview. And it was so weird. It was so scary. Yeah. You'd walk in and they'd be like, okay, take your clothes off, and they'd be like the company owner just sitting there.

00:30:35:07 - 00:30:51:10 Unknown Just take your clothes off. Okay. Do a spin. And like. Yes. No. Like literally. It was really. It was crazy. Yeah. Oh, my God, I fucked up. I mean, yeah, I still do that now. No, we don't do ghost anymore. No, but that used to be a thing. Like that's what you would do. That is wild. It was insane.

00:30:51:11 - 00:31:07:22 Unknown So? So you would do you do your go, and then what would happen is when you're brand new, you get shot out. So every company would shoot you one, maybe two if you're lucky. But every company would shoot you at least one time. And then after that, when you get to that shot out point, you either make it or you don't.

00:31:07:23 - 00:31:28:21 Unknown That's when you disappear and fade off into, you know, whatever. And then or you become a star. So it was just it was very cut and dry back then. Yeah. Now you don't even have to be, like, a really good performer. But if you market yourself and you yourself and you build a following. Yeah, yeah. Like the companies are going to say, okay, this girl's got a million followers on Instagram.

00:31:28:21 - 00:31:47:06 Unknown Let's let her shoot, you know. But a lot of people, what happens is that I find a lot of new content creators. What they do is they they blow up, like, overnight. They shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot with all these major companies, and then they're like, they take a break. But then it's like, no, but you still gotta work.

00:31:47:06 - 00:32:02:11 Unknown Yeah, right. You still got to promote yourself. You still got to market yourself. Oh, yeah. And they think that just because, you know, those first six months they were doing so good. Like you got to maintain that. You can't just, like, go off and and disappear. Right. And I feel like that's been happening happening a lot more these days.

00:32:02:12 - 00:32:19:00 Unknown I mean I'm a tough example of that. So when I get into these relationships I take a couple of years off. It's literally I have to rebrand myself. And I always have a new look to, you know, a but you have to rebrand yourself and it's like you have to build yourself back up again. So I tell people, don't take breaks and don't get comfortable.

So it's like you just get new followers, you sell your old stuff and you still can can make money. So yeah, but just. But to retain, like to retain your subscribers, you've got to keep. I know you just can't stop.

00:32:56:11 - 00:33:10:18 Unknown I know you can't. It's literally like I was like, oh, let me, let me do this and work for myself and work whenever I want to work.

And a lot of people don't know this about me. Like, you will really appreciate this. I'm obsessed with ancient Aliens show. Yes. So 2023. I went to Alien Con in Pasadena, and they had all the, the, you know, the scientists from the show and one of the contributors for the show.

00:38:33:13 - 00:38:54:10 Unknown That's who I actually want to do. It's not even like a vacation or an Egypt tour. It's a pilgrimage with him. And then which one? Georgia. You're not the cool ones. It's one of the ones that like, he talks about stargazers and stuff. Okay, but him and his wife do like a tour 12 days. You take a cruise on the Nile, you get to go.

00:38:54:11 - 00:38:59:19 Unknown That's all. I think I've heard of that. I don't think it's George. It's just.

00:38:59:21 - 00:39:09:05 Unknown Is it? Is it the child risk? Guys, I see the pyramids. Yeah. No, it's not the crazy ones because he's just a contributor. He's not one of the dudes on the show.

00:39:09:08 - 00:39:29:22 Unknown He's just been on the show for a couple times. Okay, okay, okay. I'm drawing a blank on his name, right? One of them died. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, one of them died, and there's a whole conspiracy on it. The blond guy. Really? Yeah, they they apparently, you know, because he a few days before he went and said, I am not suicidal if anything happens to me.

00:39:30:03 - 00:39:51:02 Unknown And then they freaking got him. It is wild. It's so scary. It really is. It's really scary. Like, we get Courtney and I go deep into those rabbit holes. Really? Yeah, we're friends now. Like YouTube on, like, YouTube all day. Yeah. I used to not be a Joe Rogan fan because back in the day, the way he treated women was like icky for me.

00:39:51:02 - 00:40:09:09 Unknown But then I started seeing the guests that he have on, like, is it Robert? Robert Graham? Is that his name? Yeah. Is that his name? He he said that that's man. That's the one. I think that he's the one that says that there was like a the big slide like he talks about the ancient cataclysm. Maybe if I see his, his picture.

00:40:09:10 - 00:40:27:05 Unknown But he had some really cool guests. Yeah. Yeah he really did. Yeah. So I love those guests. I love it when he has like the, you know, the historian and the. I really think that the pyramids were some sort of machines. Yep. That's him, that's Andy. It's not him. This is another he does other documentaries that I watched him.

00:40:27:07 - 00:40:48:19 Unknown I love that guy. Well, yeah. My husband thinks it was aliens. No, no, I don't think it's anything. That's what the pyramids were, were some type of engine for power. I think they were some sort of machine. And I think the Egyptians came and turned them into tombs. So that's kind of like after hearing everybody's theory. That's kind of the one that I think that might be.

00:40:48:21 - 00:41:07:07 Unknown We're never going to know. That's because the one that's in charge of the pyramids, he just wants to say that the pyramids were a national project. It's something they worked on just to be cool. Exactly. And it wasn't. They just took it over later. Yeah, but anyway, don't get me started. We could see her on, like, the next season of Ancient Aliens.

00:41:07:09 - 00:41:27:12 Unknown Or we can go over that on another episode when you come back. Okay. We're going to do a fun segment. I put Johnny Sims in there because I thought you worked with him. But smash Mary, kill Johnny Sins, Kieran Lee, Mick Blue. Okay. And you got to explain why. Oh, God. Are we going to kill Kieran Lee?

00:41:27:14 - 00:41:47:11 Unknown Poor guy. He's being bullied today. I kind of like smashing Kieran. Me? Yeah. So he smashed Kieran Lee and the other two guys, like. I mean, I guess Mick Blue, we're going to kill him because. Have you shot with him. No. Okay. So okay, let's replace let's replace Mick Blue with Jay Mac okay. That's even hard. Kill Jay Mac.

00:41:47:11 - 00:42:02:22 Unknown Not after what we made him do last night so you don't have to marry him. Okay, I'll marry James. Okay. And then you were gonna kill Johnny Sins because you haven't worked with him. Okay. Yeah. Makes sense. Right? Makes sense. I play the game no more on that one. I get it, I like it. No love lost. He's gonna be like, no.

00:42:02:22 - 00:42:27:05 Unknown Now you guys got a collab. So you you you either smash it. Yeah, exactly. If you could erase one misconception about you forever, what would it be? If I could erase one misconception about me? I mean, they're just like, all the misconceptions are like the general, you know, adult industry ones that, like I said, like, I'm a I'm a nerd and people don't know that.

00:42:27:05 - 00:42:44:16 Unknown And they think I'm just like this, like slutty hoochie mama, and I'm this sex crazed maniac. I'm just fucking, like, all the time, and you know. Oh, you know what? This is it. Actually, you are the answer. No, no, not this is my answer. The misconception is they think that I'm laying around in my house all day in my lingerie.

00:42:44:17 - 00:43:00:13 Unknown Yeah, they hit me up and they want a video chat, and they think that's what I'm in. I'm ready. Are you ready on this? Are you ready? And like, I'm not in lingerie. Yeah, I'm in men's boxers. Right. And Ancient Aliens is on, so call me later.

What would be a tip that you would give somebody that is starting in this industry? I would say reach out to the OGs, reach out to the odds. Yeah. And and ask, ask for help. Just, you know, figure out what your niche is.

00:43:21:01 - 00:43:36:01 Unknown Yeah. You went in and you were right away a mILF. I was. Yeah. And MILFs were popping back then. But MILFs are still we're still popping. They are.
