Exclusive interview with Mariah Milano
| So when was your first actual porn shoot? 2 weeks after my 18th birthday in 1998 How was that? Did it feel weird or really good? |
What made you decide to do porn?
I saw a friend from school at a nail salon and she told me she had done some shoots, and then when she showed me a magazine she shot I knew I had to do it. I honestly never knew the reality of how huge porn was until I started having people recognize me in public!
What’s your favorite scene?
The shoot I just did for Jules Jordan is SO hot and the one I shot with Eric Everhard “Call of Booty” was pretty hot too. The hottest video I shot for myself was a strapon scene with Jasmine Byrne. We had never met, I showed up at her hotel and we had a few drinks and just clicked. To say it nicely, we fucked each others brains out for over 4 hours! J When you see the video it’s VERY clear there was great chemistry!
How did you choose your name within the industry?
It was actually chosen for me by Dee & Rob who was my manager in the beginning. They said it and I loved it! The last name Kane was given to me by Ed Powers but I never liked it and never used it myself. He’s the only one who used it and for some reason it followed me in a few things after that. But I want to make it known that I never wanted that last name or ever used it myself! lol
How did your family and friends take it when you decided to go into the porn industry?
My family was very upset and some of them still are. My mom has been very cool about it since the beginning.
Of course we want to know some personal information, what’s your favorite movie?
Brown Sugar, Waist Deep, The Brave One & The Kingdom.
Favorite food?
Italian food of course!
Favorite site? (And you don’t HAVE to say ours of course )
Mariahxxx.net which is my first site I started in 2004 and very honestly, I use Freeones.com all the time and it is by far the BEST site online, and its Free! J
Are you close with your fans? And what do you do for them?
Very close. I own and run my sites myself so I personally return all of my emails myself and spend at least an hour a day on yahoo instant messenger with members and fans. I also send out Christmas cards I make just for my members every year with a personalized hand-written message, not some general card. I even bought one of my members a dvd burner for Christmas last year. He had been a great member and helped me with a lot of things when I started my site so I thought I would do something nice for him. Many of my members are my friends, not just members of my site.
Do you remember your first kiss? And how do you remember that?
Yes and it was awkward and with an idiot who was too old to be kissing me! lol
What did you do before you started to work in the porn industry?
I was only 18 a few weeks before my first movie so not much, but I worked for my moms’ boyfriend.
What do you do when you come home from work?
Since my sites are my full-time job I work at home so I spend my mornings doing updates, making galleries, doing design improvements and returning emails…and of course I’m always on my Myspace page! Lol I’m addicted to it! Oh by the way, it’s myspace.com/mariahmyspace2
Do you have an active personal sex life? And does your work affect this?
Yes I have an active sex life and shooting movies hasn’t hurt it at all as far as I’m concerned. I think it’s helped it in a lot of ways.
Is the sex with your boyfriend different then when shooting for a movie?
Completely different with someone I’m with in my private life. Movie shoots are always stop and start and its pretty much business to everyone. I don’t want to ruin anyone’s fantasy so I won’t go into details! lol
You have a favorite position or something you think someone really has to try?
I like to be on top and I like to be pounded hard from behind. I’m not into really crazy stuff so I don’t have anything wild to suggest. I would say that using a strong vibrator of some kind is a must during sex!
What is your limit with making porn?
I have a lot of things I won’t do and have never done. I won’t be degraded or treated badly on-screen or off. I won’t do a gang bang. Its too much and its more about the girl being treated in a way I don’t like, so I won’t do it. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it, I just don’t think it’s a very flattering way to be portrayed. Anal sex is something I Love in my personal life and I’ve done for movies a few times but don’t do regularly simply because to do it for movies is a lot worse than in my personal life. You have to do different positions and the stop and start gets very painful. I have never done a DP (double penetration) and I’m not sure if I would for a movie, but I would definitely like to do it in my personal life!
Did you ever do something you now wish you didn’t do? A few movies with certain directors just because they are assholes and I wish they didn’t have the satisfaction of fucking me! lol
Would you prefer lesbian or heterosexual sex?
I love both but I definitely prefer a man. How about both at the same time? Now that’s what I would prefer! lol
Is there someone you really enjoy working with?
Well my favorite is Julian but he recently retired but I did get to work with him so at least I have that!
What’s been your worst experience on the set?
It was actually my first boy girl shoot back in the industry since 2000. It was an interracial scene and when I got to the location there were like 8 guys standing around smoking weed and being pretty disrespectful. Smoke all the weed you want but don’t blow it in someone’s face who doesn’t want it ya know? Be professional! They were friends of the director who was also the talent and before the day was over they were all asking for blow jobs, which they DIDN’T get, and blowing the smoke from the weed in my face. I left there in tears and it nearly made me not do another movie again. I want to say the name of the guy but I won’t!
And the weirdest or funniest thing you experienced? This is gross and I’ll try and leave the details to your imagination! I was on a set and saw a girl doing an anal scene that, well, let’s just say she didn’t quite prepare well enough for! lmao
Do you have any tips or advice to people who want to work in the industry?
Hmmm…well just know that if you do a movie it will be seen by people you don’t want to see it. And to all the guys who think they could be a porn stud, there is a very good reason you always see the same few guys in all the videos. Its because it’s very tough to keep it up with all those people standing around and all the stop and starts for stills etc.
You have a new movie coming out we can all wait for?
There are several. I just recently shot for Jules Jordan and that one is going to be REALLY hot and I can’t wait to see it when it comes out! Another really hot one is Digital Playgrounds “Jack’s Big Tit Show” & Club Jenna’s “Pin Up Girl Perversions” which recently came out on DVD. I have also shot a lot for Brazzers sites and know there are like 4 or 5 scenes that haven’t come out yet on PornstarsLikeitBig.com and BigTitsatSchool.com. They’re all gonna be hot! J
And the last question; we all want to know how you see yourself in the future. Any plans?
Well I have a lot of plans for the future. I am starting to shoot my own line of videos for my new sites. I own and operate more than 30 sites so I have big plans for all of them! I plan to do some more hi-profile movie projects and then really focus on my sites and building a really great network that has something for everyone. I have no plans to work for anyone other than myself and my main goal is to be 100% self-reliant and dependant on no one! I know that is pretty much everyone’s goal, but I’m pretty much there now other than the movies I am hired to do, but I choose those and turn down way more offers than I accept. So basically I just want to be the one doing the hiring in the very near future!
