Music favorites include “everything except screaming stuff.” She listens mostly to country music now, and Garth Brooks is one of her favorites. No wonder Lucky likes her so much! [Of course I never like women that do not enjoy country music, even if they look great naked. … Uh-Huh. … And the fact that I have clothing older than Tenaya certainly makes no difference at all. (On an ancillary, but interesting, note, we’re producing a movie for a new company that starts shooting at the end of this month. We have written in a g/g scene for Tenaya and (hopefully) Shayla where Shayla actually says, “You understand, of course, that I could literally be your mother.” … Good thing Shayla’s a good sport.)]
Since I was thinking about falling off bikes, I asked Tenaya if she rode. She said she does, but would really like to ride a motorcycle. Manager Tommy ix-nayed the idea immediately. Even a relatively minor fall could cause major damage to a tiny girl like Tenaya! [It would probably also hurt Tommy’s bike. That would suck.]
Tenaya’s biggest fear is being alone and lonely. She loves people and she hates going places by herself. [Somehow we’re thinking that this isn’t really a major issue for Tenaya.]
Although she’s only been in the business a few months, Tenaya already has a “most embarrassing story.” [Well, those are actually much easier to come by early in one’s career.] She and Renee Perez were doing a Taboo magazine shoot in the desert. When the photographer asked her if she did anal, Tenaya said that she did, but hadn’t prepared for an anal scene. The photographer said it was fine and a toy was procured. Tenaya told me that she didn’t want to be disgusting, but “the butt plug wasn’t clean when it came out.” Luckily this was porn, and everyone was completely nonplussed by the event! [Maybe, but BLEH just the same. Making porn is sexy, isn’t it?]
By this time, Megan had just about completed Tenaya’s makeup. “I love this hairstyle,” Tenaya said of her crimped curls. “It can be messy and you’d never know it!” She says she likes girls with big hair like Dolly Parton! [Have we ever mentioned our favorite Dolly Parton quote? During a Tonight Show appearance (probably back when Tenaya was about three years old), Dolly told Johnny Carson, “You have no idea how expensive it is to look this cheap.” … Reminds me of porn.]
As we were getting ready to go to famed photographer “1019’s” house for the photo shoot I gave my new friend some sage advice that I’d heard from Lucky. [You mean I have another kind? Surely she jests.] Even though you are now beginning to make money, at the very least put some of it in a savings account. When you decide to graduate out of porn someday, you’ll want a nest egg. Don’t put your money in your garage, in your closet, or up your nose. [Oh. That is good advice. I was very wise that day.]
Tenaya assured me that since she’d grown up poor, she knows the value of money, knows how to save it, and knows how to stretch a buck. She shops the clearance racks for good, brand name clothes at bargain prices. She isn’t looking to buy a Lamborghini, and has too much respect for her body to muck it up with drugs! [This must be an infectious condition, as the entire office has respect for Tenaya’s body now.]
After carpooling to 1019’s house, Megan finished up Tenaya’s makeup and started on her own. Having just turned 18, Megan is thinking about dancing with Tenaya at strip clubs. She’d like to go to art school, and dancing is a great part time job that earns full time money. Besides, Megan is as gorgeous as her sister! Megan showed me the very intricate tattoo that graces her leg from calf to food. It’s an Indian god. The tat is only a few months old, but she’s already having some misgivings. Lucky did suggest that she keep it as least as long as she’s dancing. People love anything different and cool; they’ll throw lots of money at it! [Wow. This turned out to be a very sage day. Good for me.]
While 1019 finished setting up lights and backdrops, Tenaya “shopped” at his ample movie collection and admired his art collections. [Honestly we were pretty impressed with 1019’s “action figure” collection until we recently visited director Eli Cross at his home with Kylie Ireland. Eli has more action figures than I have books. I’m not sure what to make of that, but since we’re shooting with them soon, I’ll have time to think about it — unless Kylie’s DP distracts me. That happens even with really, really sage people.]
