Dear Johnny,
If everybody could be a pornstar, then everybody would. You know what I mean? Before you delve into the exciting (and sometimes seedy) world of making porn, you should consider a few things:
- Once you make 1 or 100 movies, they are out there for the world to see. There's no hiding you did it. So, consider the consequences.
- Are you a good-looking guy? Yes, looks do count, unless you're the director. Most male performers have movie star looks these days.
- Are you willing to work hard on your body? You will have to workout (Erik Everhard spends hours in the gym to get those biceps) and watch what you eat, along with upkeep like haircuts and potentially waxing.
- What sets you apart from the crowd? Most male stars have some distinctive quality about them such as dick size and/or girth or special performance skills. You'll also need a name that stands out like Lexington Steele (AKA Lex the Impaler), Will Powers or James Deen. And yes, these names are already taken.
- You have to have sex with whatever chick(s) they pair you with, whether you think they're hot or not. And, you have to appear on camera as though you and that starlette have intense chemistry.
- Have you ever had sex with 20+ people watching you? All eyes of everyone on the set will be on you. Can you take the pressure?
- Can you keep it up for 1 to 4 hours? These guys and their members work long hours.
- Are you prepared to do sex acts you might not like including anal and double-teaming a girl with another guy?
- Can you cum on command? That's right—it's all about when and where the money shot happens.
- And lastly, men get paid less than women do (usually they make about half what women make). There's a greater demand for women in the business. The upside is that if you're good, you'll work a lot.
After you you've considered all of the above, you might be ready to step in front of the camera. There are agencies you can sign on with. But, I would suggest contacting a studio or your favorite director and see if you can get a bit part in a movie. If you do a good job, other roles might come your way. And after you make 100 movies or so, you might be a star and have your own line of sex toys.
 Until then, I would suggest you check out some veteran male porn stars for some pointers. Rugged good looks have helped Steven St. Croix get into over 600 XXX flicks. Check him out in Vivid's Sex & Violins, American Hardcore's The New Neighbors and Adam & Eve's Jane Blonde DD7.
 It might be the Italian accent, but there's just something hot about Rocco Siffredi. Also known as the Italian Stallion, he not only acts but directs. Watch him in Evil Angel's Fashionistas Safado: The Challenge, Vivid's Emperor and Evil Angel's Rocco Goes to Prague.
 And not only known for his large member, but his ability to cum loads multiple times, Peter North is very popular with the ladies. He's starred in over 1000 movies with every notable porn starlette of the last 20 years including Jenna Jameson and Traci Lords. Study his performance in Digital Sin's Monster Meat, Northstar Associates' North Pole #61 and Wicked's Splendor in the Ass.
Good luck!
Love, Betty |
