You asked, Gianna answered. An all-around cool chick, Gianna Michaels was excited to answer questions from her fans. If she’s going to do anal, what she does in her free time, who she likes to fuck, what turns her on and more…

How and why did you get into porn?

I was approached by an agent walking home from work in the steaming hot San Fernando valley. I was wearing a skin tight tank top and sweat glistened in between my cleavage like glitter. lol…. yeah and I didnt really take it seriously so I blew it off.

I ran into the same agent a year later in the same spot walking in the same smoldering heat and he asked me one question………….

Still walking huh? lol……. and I said SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!! (in my head of course) decided to give it a shot

Most people agree that a big part of what makes a star great is her enthusiasm and love for what she does. Tory Lane just did a great interview with Rock Confidential in which she explains how she’s different from other girls in the industry:

They don’t love what they do. The money is great - it keeps me happy. I’m a pornographer, though. I love fucking on film. I love shooting. It turns me on knowing what I’m doing is turning other people on! When my job’s done and someone rents one of my movies, it’s a personal thing. I can be the dirtiest of the dirty but I can still sit down and have a family meal! I love what I do and that makes me good at it.

I highly recommend reading the entire interview, especially if you’re a fan of Tory’s.

My man in the field, Dave, has the opportunity to do an interview with the one and only Eva Angelina for the blog next week. So you have all weekend to submit questions you’d like him to ask Eva! Post your questions in the comments and I’ll pick out a bunch for the interview.

A former co-worker and VB blog enthusiast tipped me off to this interview with Sasha Grey. Not only is Sasha a pretty cool girl, she touches on a lot of very interesting topics (rough porn, unionizing the industry, having relationships with non-porn guys) that I thought readers of the blog would be into. The interview is cut into three parts, so here are links to Part 2 and Part 3.

On a personal note, I had the pleasure of interviewing Sasha shortly after she finished her first movie (Fashionistas: Safado) and it’s awesome to see that she’s used the industry to grow rather than letting it take her over. This is the one girl I doubt will ever get a crappy boob job or start smoking meth. Which makes her 1000% more attractive in my opinion.

Last week, VideoBox released Teen Line: The Blue Room, a very rough movie that spurred a lot of valid controversy. While I have opinions of my own about that kind of porn, I think that the best way to understand what happens on a porn set is to talk to the people who spend their time on porn sets. That’s why I tracked down Brandon Iron.

Brandon is a porn actor and the director of VB favorites like Photographic Mammaries, Intensities in 10 Cities and Bell Bottoms. He’s also well-known for his rougher lines (perhaps ‘notorious’ would be a better word) and I felt that he would bring a valuable perspective to the rough porn issue. Brandon very kindly agreed to take time out of his trip home to Canada to answer my questions. Read on for the in-depth and (I think) fascinating interview.

Taryn Thomas is without question one of the nastiest girls in porn. Which is why it was kind of heartbreaking when she decided to quit the business in 2005. But, like most pornstars who quit the biz, she’s back. Read on for the reasonably filthy IM interview…
