With a song titled “Drink Beer and Fuck” on the album Porn to Rock, you have a sense that Nina Whett could perhaps be the ultimate fantasy for the testosterone set. Porn star, musician, actress, professional dom and writer, Nina Whett is a renaissance woman on her own terms. She’ll take any man or woman on a smart and sexually charged ride capable of melting any gender. Don’t be scared; she will rock your world if you let this former wrestling champ into your life. Meet Nina Whett, the woman, the gladiator sex goddess.

Leo: Tell us about yourself?

Nina Whett: You may have seen me on the VH1 special “Porn to Rock” or on Playboy’s “Sexcetra.” I’ve also been in several men’s magazines and have a new layout coming up in High Society that I did with Taylor St. Claire and one of our sexy boy toys. Also I was a Pro-Wrestler for over five years and have toured all over the world with CA WOW, Gladiator Girls, CA Heat, BLOW, and was 5-year CA WOW champion. In addition to all of that, I started my career in the adult business as a dancer and bikini model while remaining involved with music throughout. Then in 1997 I got involved in the adult movie industry where I did my first movie for Jane Waters who is now a dear friend of mine. The movie was for Extreme Associates called “The Pornographer” and it won an AVN award for best comedy. Now I’ve done over 100 movies including many fetish films.

Why choose a career in the sex industry?

Well, why does one decide to work in computers or in an office? They either get into it because they love what they do, for the money, or they don’t know what they want to do. I love sex. I love the entertainment business and I’ve always pictured myself being an entertainer. One that breaks the rules too! I get to live out my fantasies, it just happens to be on camera for other people to watch and enjoy. It’s actually a great job. You make good money, everybody has sex and it’s fun, everyone gets tested monthly for STDs and HIV, and it’s really wild. If you’re smart with your money, the scenes you do, and about the business aspect of it then it can really do a lot for you. But you have to be prepared to piss a lot of people off and you might have to go without a family. They sometimes will not approve and they shut you out of their life so you have to be able to handle that.

I know that you contributed to the album “Porn To Rock” with other porn stars. Can you tell us more about that, and is there is a singing career in the near future for you?

YES! That was fun. There is also a documentary film that is coming out about the making of that CD and about the adult industry starring Ron Jeremy and myself among many other adult stars. Check out www.porntorock.net and as far as my music career, yes I have a new industrial metal band called MANTIS 13 and right now we are recording a CD. Check out info on the band at my website. The Official M13 site is coming soon. I was on KNAC radio on Friday April 13th and if you go to www.knac.com you can check out the show in the archives and hear one of my new songs. I also have pics from the show on my site. The Nasty Neil Show! Check it out!

What are you listening to these days?

Well, I listen to Static X, Soulfly, Rob Zombie, Clutch, COC, Rage Against the Machine, Alice in Chains, Slipknot, Slayer, old Metallica, Ministry, NIN, White Zombie, Babes in Toyland, Perpetual Hypengine, System of a Down, Excel, Type O Negative, Sepultura, Faith No More, and so many more!!!

I know that you did some oil wrestling. Can you give us some pointers?

Yeah I did the oil before going pro. That’s for pussies! I love the athletics of pro and my famous move was my very own “Skull Crusher!” Immediately following a closeline! Oil wrestling is for bachelor parties or at home with your boyfriend.

I’ve seen your fetish pics! What is your favorite fetishism and how far will you go?

My fave is to be tied up and fucked but you can’t do that on film here in America so I just do it at home in my private life. Also I love being a Dom and I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t enjoy smothering and kicking or trampling a poor defenseless servant the best. Yeah I’m a sick puppy! And I love it!

Tell us about your weirdest fan.

One time I got this whacked out e-mail from this crazy guy. I get a lot of that but this dude was really nuts and I had to file an abuse report to get the letters to stop. Other than that my fans are cool. I get nice letters and I do read them.

If you were a donut what kind of donut would you be and why?

A donut!?! Are you kidding? I would never be a donut. I’m more like a whiskey peppercorn steak! Not sweet, just spicy, lots of juices, tender in the middle and with a taste that you’ll never forget.

Does size matter?

I’m not a size queen but most women do care a little bit about size but he doesn’t have to be huge. Me, all I care about is girth and “can he use it?” You gotta have the ass to push it, baby.

Brains or muscles?

I have to be able to carry on an intelligent conversation with a man or can’t spend any quality time with him. And I don’t really like pretty boys or guys that are too buffed! However, big guys with big hands turn me on! And they have to be able to eat like a man. I hate going out to eat with a guy and he orders a soup and salad! I’m a Meat and Potato kinda girl!!

What will you never do?

Gangbangs! Because that is too risky and it does not interest me at all.

What is your favorite sexual position?

Pile Driver, because the cock goes down and right in and it stays harder!

Playboy, Penthouse, or Hustler?

I’ve been in Hustler Erotic Filmguide and did Hustler movies because I wanted to. Larry Flynt Jr. is a sweetheart! My movies appear on Playboy TV all of the time and I was on Sexcetra playing on stage with my old band Blind Suicide, it was fun.

Tell us something about yourself that may shock people.

I played in Texas with the Toadies (I thought we sucked! Haha! A few years ago I did shows with the Ozark Mountain Daredevils, Head East, Molly Hatchet, Foghat, and Shadow Dancer. All over the US. It was crazy!

What was your most embarrassing moment?

I have so many, where do I begin? One time I slipped on stage while in the middle of a scene in a play at my college! That sucked!

What is the sexiest thing you have ever done?

Wow, there are a lot of these moments too! I loved it when I had my lover tie me up to the Ab Roller with my legs up & over it. Then he made me do crunches while he fucked me silly! That was hot! I told you I’m a freak!

What are your plans for the future?

Music! Music! Music! And money.

So You Wanna Be a Porn Star? An interview with Ana Loria

So You Wanna Be a Porn Star? An interview with Ana Loria
By Leonardo Calcagno

Sex!Sex!Sex! a word that get some going crazy and others smiling. Porno!Porno!Porno! well there is a word that when mentioned, most of our society barks for murder. But hypocrisy is a sad thing; show me anyone who never saw a porno movie or magazine and I’ll tell you that they’re lying just to be interesting.

From the beginning of time, people have always felt the urge to sexually fantasize, but most of them are too chicken to venture into the world of flesh and horniness. But some are taking this world into the mainstream with hip zines, movies and clothing lines like Porn Star. But porno still makes people uncomfortable. Did you know that people would rather see war and misery on TV than people having sex? They are shocked and bark to stop it at any cost (freaking right wing close-minded society — sorry had to write that).

But like any war to win minds and change perceptions, there are those who resist society’s knee-jerk censorship and prohibition of anything sexual, by taking porn to the people and helping them to overcome their sexual frustration.

Ana Loria is just one of those people. This beautiful lady took time to tell me of her crusade, her book 1-2-3 Be a Porn Star! A Step-by-Step Guide to the Adult Industry and safesex.org, a website that helps people fulfill their sexual desires.

Leonardo: Tell me a little about yourself.

Ana Loria: I am a model and an aspiring actress, but probably my most unique aspect is my view of sexuality. Ever since I can remember, I’ve always been a very sex-positive person, and I’ve always felt that society is completely screwed-up in its moral priorities. I feel that this world could be such a better place if there were ten times the sex and one-tenth the violence. So why do our advertisements tease and titillate so much, when the reality is that most people do not get as much sex as they want? I believe it’s because that inner dissatisfaction makes us hungrier as consumers, so it’s good for big business, but it’s bad for our souls and spirits. That’s why I’ve made it my personal mission to help people enjoy safe-sex as much and as easily as possible.

What urged you to do porno or get involved in the adult industry?

Actually, I’ve never had any aspiration to be an adult performer, and so I’ve never appeared in any pornography. Of course, I’ve had plenty of opportunity, and I do enjoy lingerie and bikini modeling. But believe it or not, I’m quite a private person. On the other hand, I will say that I find most porn stars extremely brave and wonderful people.

What’s safesex.org?

SAFESEX.ORG is the website I’ve administered for the past five years, with the most excellent help and funding of my publisher, InfoNet Publications. The site is designed to help men and women learn about all the ways one can get paid to participate in safe sex programs. It also is a resource for people who want to become escorts, dancers, masseuses, phone sex operators, Internet strippers, tantric sex teachers, adult movie stars, and much more. Recently, we just unveiled our new website SEXYJOBS.COM which is super-cool because it has a free job board where you can check out listings posted by adult industry employers. Plus you can post a free ad to let employers know you are looking for a sexy job. To my knowledge, it’s the only job site on the Internet for adult performers.

Tell me a little bit about your book: 1-2-3 Be a Porn Star!

Let’s face it, at some point or another, just about everyone fantasizes about being a porn star. Who wouldn’t want to get paid to enjoy sex in exotic locations with beautiful people? Of course, the problem has been figuring out how to break into this secretive business. But the fact is, the porn world is booming. Over 10,000 new adult videos are now being produced every year, and the demand for talent is at an all-time high. So I wrote the book in order to help people find the right places to look for work. It tells you who the right people are, how you can meet them, and how to land your all-important first job. And how to avoid being burned.

Whether you’re male or female, my book is designed to make it easy to cut through the usual obstacles. I give up-to-date contact information for all the best talent agents, directors and producers, along with advice in their own words for how to ensure your success. Plus I interviewed legendary porn stars like Jill Kelly, Max Hardcore, Nina Hartley, Peter North, Stacy Valentine, Randy West, Sharon Mitchell, Ashlyn Gere, Guy DeSilva, Annabel Chong and many more. 1-2-3 BE A PORN STAR! covers all the main areas of porn, including amateur, mainstream, hardcore, softcore, fetish, gonzo, gay, bi, lesbian, transsexual and couples. Extensive discussion is devoted to how to produce and market your own adult material. In addition to the video industry, I also discuss opportunities in cable, CD-ROM, DVD, print media and the booming Internet arena. Plus, of course, I had to devote an entire chapter to health and safety issues for adult performers.

Do you urge people with sexual fantasies to try porno?

I always urge people to be as honest as possible with themselves and their partners about what kind of sexual experiences would turn them on the most. I think fantasies are meant to be fulfilled… not stifled. Because repressed desire is what makes us mean and nasty and stupid! In other words, as long as its consensual, I say go for it.

Whats your advice for somebody thinking about a porno career?

Educate yourself! Read my book and Nina Hartley’s stuff, and check out Sharon Mitchell’s AIM Health Care Foundation. Make sure you know what you’re getting into and who you are dealing with… and then HAVE FUN!

Do you have fans, and have you encounter many weird ones?

Yes, I estimate that I’ve received over 100,000 e-mail letters from my kind website visitors over the past few years. Thanks to everyone, I’ve learned so much about humans it could fill 20 books! And yes, even the weird ones are appreciated. Because weird is human, so let’s not make anyone feel bad about who they are.

Are you married, and if yes how does your husband feels about it?

I’m not married… yet. I love people too much to commit to one right now, but I do intend to… and I know we will rock each other’s worlds.

How do you feel about anti-porno right-wing movements?

I understand their dilemma. They have a lot of pain and anger and conditioning to wrestle with, and sexuality scares them deeply. I just wish I could make them see that we actually improve as a species from having hot kinky wild sex. We are evolving to understand this, so I’m not worried.

Has porno become mainstream?

Yes, but I’m afraid a lot of this has to do with money. The next step is for it to be about love, respect, and personal growth.

Any last thoughts?

Yes, here’s a big kiss for everyone who loves sex and hates violence. Oh, in case you’re interested you can also find my books on Amazon. They’re also at Borders or Barnes and Noble. Yippee!
