Showtime - Seymore Butts Clothing-Optional Party
2003-02-14 13:39:37
Thursday evening, 2/13/03, I drive 90-minutes
to the Moonlight Roller Rink at 5110 San Fernando Road for Showtime's
clothing-optional skate-night party in honor of Seymore
Butts family and their participation in a Showtime reality
series Family Business a la the Osbournes on MTV.
I almost get kicked out 20-minutes after arriving. Seymore is
concerned to see me. His Showtime series is meant to portray the
industry in a fun and upbeat light while my focus, he believes,
has been to portray the industry in a dark and miserable light.
I've also published hurtful things about Seymore over the years,
without calling him first to verify my facts.
I can't get my camera in. All cameras are banned except for Showtime
employees.
I'm the only reporter present aside from {URL=http://www.avn.com/articles/11720.html]AVN's
Jay Moyes.
I walk in and see Adella from Digital Playground (DP), Joone,
the owner of DP, DP contract girl Jesse Jane, her beautiful brunette
friend, Lee Stone, Jessica Drake, Dolorian, Monique Alexander,
Tim Case and his wife Felicia Fox, Layla Jade and her hubby Bill.
I catch Tim talking on his cell phone with Mike South.
Dolorian: "It even smells like a roller rink."
Dolorian says she's read ten books since I saw her last, about
a month ago. She's just finished one John Grisham novel and has
started another - The King of Torts.
I walk up to Seymore Butts aka Adam Glasser to say hi. He's not
happy to see me.
Seymore: "What are you doing here?"
Luke: "I'm covering this for setgo.com."
Seymore: "What are you doing here? Who invited you?"
Luke: "Adella."
Seymore: "I didn't invite you. I hear you are doing something
with 60 Minutes and you know it's not going to be a positive slant
on the industry."
Luke: "60 Minute will probably interview me like they interviewed
Paul Fishbein and Chris Mann etc. I think I'm the best at what
I do."
Seymore: "Journalism? Telling the whole story?"
Luke: "Yeah."
A Showtime crew videotapes our discussion.
Seymore: "So what's going to be the slant?"
Luke: "I don't know and I don't think 60 Minutes knows yet. They've
looked into the STD angle, but that's been done to death by the
LA Times and ABC's Primetime so I doubt they will take that angle."
Seymore doesn't believe me that I don't know 60 Minutes angle.
"I only want to be involved with positive things. I don't want
to be involved with negative things. If you can't understand thant,
then you can get the f--- out of here right now."
Luke: "You gave me an interview at the AVN Awards. Was I fair to
you?"
Seymore: "This isn't about the AVN Awards. This is about you and
60 Minutes."
Luke: "I've usually treated you fairly."
Seymore: "Usually. Yes."
Luke: "I will email you what I want to write on the evening and
you can check it over."
Seymore agrees. He walks off. I see him conferring with a Showtime
producer. The producer says, "What do you want to do about it?"
My fate hangs in the balance. It looks like I'm about to be ejected
but nothing happens.
The Showtime crew were more than happy for me to tape an interview
with Seymore at the AVN Expo and I signed a release for them then
and tonight.
Khunrum writes: "Don't let Seymore push you around. I wish you
had some balls...Did you ever think of taking up a martial art?
It may give you the physical confidence you sorely need."
The industry is jumpy after the thrashing it took from ABC's Primetime
show.
I chat with Aria's husband. He did a few scenes under the name
Jack Bravo. Then at the East Coast Video Show, he saw Lexington
Steele fool around with Nina Hartley. And when Lex unfurled his
tool, Jack decided to retire.
Luke: "How do you like your wife being a porn star?"
Jack: "I watched a show today on Playboy and they asked the same
question to a friend of ours. I could tell it was an awkward question
for him. And I thought to myself, if anyone ever asked me that,
what would I say? And honestly, I don't ever think about my wife
being a porn star. I don't think anyone in a real relationship
does."
Aria hangs over her husband and keeps reminding him to watch what
he says.
Jack: "We were married about a year before she started doing films."
Luke: "How do you like the business?"
Jack: "I like it. You have to be really careful not to get caught
up in it and lose your perspective and priorities."
Luke: "Does it bother you that almost no relationship lasts in
the industry?"
Jack: "We've met a lot of couples in the business and without
a doubt there's a lot of fighting. It's very hard to have a relationship
in this business. We have a strong commitment.
"We were married about a year and she started revealing to me
all these little fantasies. She used to be a little playtoy for
a couple. I said, wow, you're kinda freaky. We went to visit them.
It was the first time I saw her with another woman. She did amateur
[stripping] contests that same weekend. Then she started to dance.
It's not enough so you go to the next level."
I run into Jamye Waxman and her cousin who wants a drink. Jamye's
uncle Mark Brown has worked at Playboy for 12 years. I hear Playboy.com
is making tons of money, in part thanks to Lensman and Playboycash.com.
Other highly touted sites like Clubjenna.com are not making money,
I hear from a soure in a position to know.
I chat with Tim Case. His wife Felecia has interviewed at DP and
Jilly Kelly Productions, which is looking for new contract girls.
Tim: "She was non-interracial for the first two years of her career.
Then when I met Sean Michaels in Tampa, I found him respectful
and a real gentleman. I had no problems at all with her working
with him."
At 9PM, Seymore Butts gathers the approximately 200 people on
hand into the rollerskating rink and has them give a big cheer
for his mother and cousin Stevie (who's celebrating his 60th birthday
tonight playing with porn stars). Seymore thanks his Mom and Stevie
for standing by during his obscenity prosecution (Adam eventually
plea-bargained his way out).
I see Phylisha Anne with Alex Sanders. Belladonna comes in with
two brunette friends (one with almost no breasts, short spiky
hair and dresses like a guy). Bella looks out of it. She tells
me, "I'm feeling very mellow." I don't see her being shunned tonight
by other porners. Seymore chats with her but Bella largely keeps
to herself.
A cameraman comes by and tries to get Bella and her two friends
to say "Happy Birthday Stevie" for Seymore's cousin. It takes
them three attempts to pull it off.
It's Stormy's first time on skates while her boyfriend Brad Armstrong
is a pro.
Jay Moyes writes on AVN.com: "Brad Armstrong also donned his roller
apparel, but found himself spending most of the time keeping an
eye on Stormy, who was being interviewed by an infamous web columnist."
I spot Dolorian on Joone's lap.
The Showtime cameras go into the Mens room to shoot a craps game.
Tonight's festivities mark the end of Showtime's first season
ten-episode run on Seymore Butts aka Adam Glasser.
I email my report to Seymore Friday morning and then talk by phone
with him Friday afternoon. He corrects a couple of my quotes,
answers my questions, and sends me on my way with no hard feelings.
I call Jamye Waxman Friday afternoon. We're supposed to have lunch.
Robby D answers her phone. He's the biggest flirt in the world.
He didn't go last night because his girlfriend was sick.
A Friday Afternoon Chat With Seymore Butts
2003-02-14 13:51:35
Seymore speaks with what I find to be
excruciating care. I tend to speak rapidly and it is hard
for me to adjust to those personality types, the earthy
physical types, who speak slowly.
We spoke by phone 2/14/03.
Luke: "What was last night about?"
Seymore: "It was celebrating my cousin's [Steve] birthday
and just happens to be part of the last episode of our ten
part series. Everybody seemed to have a great time. They
were especially surprised they had such a good time without
booze. It was nice for people who enjoy rollerskating to
be able to do it in partial states of undress. It's an exhilirating
feeling to skate with the wind between your legs and your
tits flopping free."
Luke: "Is Steve active in your business?"
Seymore: "He supervises the sales manager and makes sure
that release date are hit and takes care of any problems
we might have."
Luke: "What are you doing in the adult industry now?"
Seymore: "The same thing I've always done - making movies."
Luke: "How many are you cranking out?"
Seymore: "I've never been one to crank out movies, but I
will probably make between 9-12 this year. The last couple
of years, I haven't made more than three or four a year."
Luke: "What was your reaction to the ABC Primetime Belladonna
piece?"
Seymore: "I was disappointed. I thought it was clearly biased.
I wasn't surprised. I know Michelle [Belladonna] well and
I know that she wears her emotions on her sleeve. One day
she could be feeling one way and the next day could be completely
different, ie, her relationship with Nacho.
"I know of at least 20-25 breakups. With every breakup,
there's a reconciliation. With every breakup, it was the
last time. Trust me, she told me. It's the last time. Never
again. I believe she felt that way when she said that to
me. Just like I believe she felt some of the things she
said on Primetime. I don't know if she always feels them."
Luke: "Do you blame her at all for the Primetime show?"
Seymore: "No. She was in way over her head. The people I
think would be looking out to see what was going on were
the people who owned companies and were involved in the
production."
Luke: "How do you know Showtime won't screw you?"
Seymore: "I've gone out of my way to make sure that I've
been in on every part of the process and have agreements
in writing and in word from people involved that the purpose
of the show is not to do anything other than first, entertain,
and second, give people a different perspective of the industry."
Luke: "Won't all media look for the most sensational moments?"
Seymore: "That is the case with most journalism pieces and
documentaries but the only reason I agreed to do this show
is that it's meant to be a fun entertaining look into what
it's like to be me. I'm in on every part of the process
including the editing.
"The things I've argued about with them are things that
are stupid, like me feeling stupid falling at a bowling
alley because I ran out on the lane and fell on my ass.
I looked like an idiot. They convinced me it is funny. We
never clash on [more serious issues]. We're on the same
page.
"I think you'll be surprised at the tone of the show, not
to say that you will like it."
Luke: "What's the principle drama in the show?"
Seymore: "Each individual episode has its own storyline.
One focuses me dating in the real world ala non-industry
girls. One focuses on my 20-year high school reunion and
my anxiety about that. One focuses on my attempt to get
involved in the sex toy part of the industry. They all have
different deals. One follows me to Las Vegas for the AVN
convention."
Luke: "Are you in a steady relationship now?"
Seymore: "No."
Luke: "What do you think of my write-up?"
Seymore: "It was interesting and fairly accurate.
"Last night I told you that I only wanted to be involved
with positive things, not negative things. If you can't
understand that, then I want you to get the f--- out.
"I notice that your alter-ego chimed in. I didn't meant
to be bullying. I had no obligation to you. I wasn't singling
you out. There was no other press there. You were the only
one. You slipped through the cracks. I wasn't obliged to
have you there. I didn't expect you to be there.
"While you say to mean that you usually have been fair,
that's fine and dandy. But the times that you haven't been,
the times you print things before consulting me or getting
a response from me, have been hurtful to me. You know the
way people are. People believe what they read. It's hard
to get certain types of things out of people's minds. My
feelings about you as far as that goes, had nothing to do
with my feelings about seeing you there last night. That
more had to do with my knowing you were involved with a
60 Minutes story following an unfair slanted Primtetime
story, combined with, as you were leaving the industry,
and before you were leaving the industry, you made it perfectly
clear to everybody that you have no love lost for the industry.
And it would probably be a better world in your eyes if
the industry was gone."
Luke: "That's accurate."
Seymore: "When I'm trying to do something that's different,
light-hearted, fun, entertaining and informative, then all
those things I just mentioned about you, it doesn't make
a good fit. That's all.
"Certainly I didn't want you to think that there was a threat
of physical harm. If I wanted you to go, I would've just
told you to go. If you didn't leave, I would've just asked
a security guard to escort you out. I wouldn't have ever
done anything physically to you. That's not the way I am,
unless you attack me or my family personally, then who knows
what you might be able to stir out of me. You don't need
the martial arts for me. Tell Khunrum."
Khunrum writes: Excellent, he seems like a reasonable guy........No
punch in the stomach........no being chased down the avenue.....Are
the porners becoming pacifists?

Wicked Girl Stormy Waters Speaks Out On Love
& Porn
2003-02-14 16:26:32
I've seen Wicked Pictures contract girl
Stormy Waters many times over the past six months, always
in the company of her boyfriend Brad Armstrong, Wicked director
and performer.
At the Seymore Butts - Showtime party Thursday night, 2/13/03,
I speak to Stormy for the first time. I find out she doesn't
bite.
MikeSouth.com reports: "A number of people clled me and
told me they were surprised to see, in attendance, none
other than Stormy Waters and Brad Armstrong. Funny thing
about Brad, it seems he is the most hated person in porn,
even the name Regan Senter doesn't draw the visceral reactions
that Brad Armstrongs name does. Stormy, as I understand
it is pretty likeable, but around Brad she walks on eggshells."
DUC says: I've never heard anyone say a bad word about Brad.
Stormy says she spent $800 on Brad Armstrong's Valentine's
Day present. The couple were late here tonight because Brad
was out shopping for something for Stormy.
As I repeat her info into my tape recorder, Stormy says,
"Shut up, he can hear you." I look over to see Brad ten
feet away.
Aria, munching cucumbers, warns Stormy to be careful of
what she says to me.
Aria: "We should have DUC come to your birthday party."
Stormy: "I know nothing about the birthday party."
Luke: "When is it?"
Aria: "None of your business."
Stormy: "St. Patrick's Day."
Luke: "How old will you be?"
Stormy: "24."
Jessica Drake and Aria are on the birthday committee.
Luke: "Would you like me to jump out of a cake?"
Aria: "Naked?"
Luke: "No."
Aria: "We're holding auditions for a male stripper."
Stormy says she gets crazy when the seven of them hang out
(Aria, Stormy, Jessica, Monique Alexander, Dolorian, etc).
Luke: "Do you get intoxicated?"
Aria: "We bring a limo. We don't drive. Of course if we're
in a limo we're going to be intoxicated."
Luke: "Do you like to drink in the mornings before you go
to work on set?"
Aria: "No, I do not. Nobody drinks before movies. Nobody
does drugs. Nobody even smokes weed in this business because
we're all pure and sweet and innocent except we like to
spread out legs..."
DUC to Stormy: "How do you feel about turning 24?"
Stormy: "I want to cry. I cried last year."
Luke: "Good cry or bad cry?"
Stormy: "Bad cry."
Luke: "How will you feel about turning 30?"
Stormy: "I'll be dead by then. Porno years are like dog
years. I figure I will be dead by then."
Luke: "You look great. You have't aged yet."
Stormy: "Yet. I used to say stripper years were like dog
years. Porn years are more like gerbil years."
Luke: "Brad's maintained his good looks."
Stormy: "Brad's almost old enough to be my daddy."
Stormy started stripping at age 17.
Luke: "Can you strip at 17?"
Stormy: "Not legally."
Luke: "Where were you?"
Stormy: "Louisianna."
Luke: "You can do that in Louisianna."
Stormy: "They don't bother to check your IDs."
Luke: "Did you ever date family member?"
Stormy: "Not knowingly."
From Baton Rouge, Stormy usually tells people she's from
New Orleans, because most people have not heard of Baton
Rouge.
Luke: "How do you like LA?"
Stormy: "I like it. I miss the food."
Luke: "The hospitality."
Stormy: "The people are so horrible in traffic here. They
won't let you over. Guys don't hold doors open for you.
The first month I was here, I kept walking into doors. I'd
go in behind a guy and I'd expect him to hold it open and
he wouldn't. I'd walk right into it. They don't say 'Yes
mam,' and 'No mam,' and they don't say 'Thank you.'"
Luke: "Were you surprised by the porn industry or was it
what you expected?"
Stormy: "I was surprised. The people are nicer than I expected.
I know there's a dark side too but I thought it would be
all dark side. There are lots of normal families."
Luke: "Does it bother you how few relationships seem to last
in this industry?"
Stormy: "Yeah, of course it does. You can't help but apply
it to yourself."
Luke: "Does it bother you that Brad works on camera with
other girls aside from you?"
Stormy: "Of course it does. I don't believe it when people
say it doesn't bother them. If it doesn't bother you at
all, then you're not into your relationship."
Luke: "Does it bother him that you do other guys?"
Stormy: "I hope so. He's been working on camera for over
ten years."
Luke: "Does it bother you how many porn star girlfriends
he's had?"
Stormy: "Who else would he date?"
Luke: "He's been with the most beautiful women in the industry
- Jenna Jameson, Dyanna Lauren, Alexa, Kira Kener, Stephanie
Swift..."
Stormy: "That's annoying. It doesn't bother me that they
were porn stars. You date what you're around. They all seem
to still like him. They still call him if they need something
and they're all nice to me."
Luke: "How does your family feel?"
Stormy: "I don't have a family. My Mom knows what I do.
She watches the softcore versions and she has all my magazines."
Luke: "Is she proud? Embarrassed?"
Stormy: "She's proud. She'll tell other people, 'Here's
my baby,' and pull out a layout of me with Brad."
Luke: "If you had to choose between being happily married
or a porn star, which would you choose?"
Stormy: "I'd have to choose happily married. Not married.
Happily married. It's a Catch 22."
Luke: "So how close are you guys to getting married?"
Stormy: "You're asking the wrong person."
Luke: "Are you ready to get married?"
Stormy: "I guess so. We've been living together for nine
months. If he asked me, I'd say yes, if that's what you're
asking."
Luke: "Would you like to have kids?"
Stormy: "I never ever wanted to have kids until I met Brad.
It's funny because that's one of the reasons some of my
past relationships did not work out - I hate kids. And the
guy always liked them. Brad doesn't want kids."
Luke: "How did you meet Aria?"
Stormy: "On set of Making It. I met her five minutes before
I met Brad. I came to LA with a friend (Devon Michaels)
who was doing a scene in Brad's movie. We went to dinner
and I moved in with Brad the next day.
"I rode the [mechanical] bull on our first date [at a bar
on Sunset Blvd]."
Aria: "We both have records for not falling off that damn
thing."
Stormy: "At least a mechanical bull won't stomp on you."
I look at Stormy's arm where she was stomped by her horse
Silhouette six months ago. It's a big dark patch.
Stormy has three horses in Los Angeles.
Luke: "Has your mother met Brad?"
Stormy: "I wouldn't do that to him."
Aria: "Are you going to tell him about your mother or (looking
at me) is that none of your damn business?"
Luke: "Do you have good relations with your mother?"
Stormy, an only child: "We get along. She knows what I do."
Luke: "What about your father?"
Stormy: "I haven't seen him since I was 16."
Luke: "Would you like to?"
Stormy: "No. Before that, I only saw him once a year since
I was four."
Aria: "She puts on the best feature act [strip routine]
in the business."
Aria and Stormy coo over Jessica Drake's slender form.
As a guy, I don't always look my conversation partner in
the face but instead stare out impassively.
Aria: "DUC's in a zone, staring out over the crowd, hoping
that we will talk about something that's none of his damn
business."
Luke: "So what could you tell me that would most surprise
the people at Wicked?"
Aria: "You don't want to."
Stormy: "They know everything. I'm there every day. I hang
out in the office. They know all the good stuff and all
the bad stuff."
Luke: "What do you love and what do you hate about the industry?"
Stormy: "I guess the obvious, the same as everybody else.
I love being in front of the camera. I love being a star
and feeling beautiful. The money of course. If it wasn't
for the industry, I wouldn't have met Brad or Aria or Jessica.
I have way better friends here than I ever did back home.
The sex is hit and miss. Sometimes it's good and sometimes
it's bad.
"The bad stuff is that it makes you as a woman feel depressed
and insecure. It makes you aware of your age. There's always
somebody coming along who's younger and more beautiful.
While a guy might have 20 years to make all his money [performing
in porn], we have eight years max. You've got a lot of stuff
to cram in there."
Luke: "The industry preys on people's insecurities."
Stormy: "Absolutely. I could name you ten of my friends
in Louisianna who should go see a plastic surgeon but the
thought never crossed their mind. I could name ten of my
friends [in Los Angeles] who are absolutely flawless and
they have a couple of things they want to see a plastic
surgeon about.
"I'm really afraid of catching something [STD] to the point
that I'm really anal about it. Some people think that I
am a whiner on set because I am like, 'One hand for you
and one hand for me' type thing. My kids will thank me one
day.
"Wicked is condom-mandatory. I'm allergic to condoms. I
can only use one brand. It was a lot of trial and error
to find the one brand and the one lube I could use. Otherwise
it feels like I am having sex with a hot poker."
Stormy can't say the brand she uses because it's not the
brand Wicked endorses. Through other sources, I learn she
uses Crown condoms and Eros lube.
Stormy: "I did 28-scenes before I signed with Wicked, but
probably eight of them were for Wicked. I'v done almost
40 scene sin my career. My contract calls for me to do seven
movies a year. I might do three scenes in a movie."
Stormy has only had plastic surgery on her breasts, getting
saline implants four years ago. "I used to think I looked
all right but now I'm conscious of every little flaw."
Luke: "What's Brad's attitude towards you and plastic surgery?"
Stormy: "The problem with Brad is that he is brutally honest.
If I ask him, 'Should I fix this?' He'll say, 'Yeah, that
would be an improvement.' That was hard for me because I'm
used to being with guys who say, 'Oh God, I think you are
the most beautiful thing in the whole world.' But he's always
right. He doesn't say it to mean because you never know
when there will be people like you lurking around.
"He's usually right about everything. He'll tell me, 'Oh,
you should change into that.' I look at it on the rack and
say, 'There's no way I'm going to wear that.' Then I put
it on and wear it to an event and everybody is falling over
themselves to compliment me."
Luke: "How does a straight man have such a good eye?"
Stormy: "That's what I want to know. Maybe he was a drag
queen in a past life."
Luke: "Have you ever caught him with another man?"
Stormy: "No, and I've tried to catch him too. He's probably
the only guy in the business who doesn't have some sort
of gay somewhere."
Luke: "Have friends from high school gotten in touch with
you?"
Stormy: "I only had one friend through high school. We were
going in different directions before I came here. I came
straight into stripping and magazines and feature dancing
and she went straight into college and sorority things.
She knows what I do. She's not a fan. She doesn't watch
it and she doesn't like to hear about it. But she never
says anything. She accepts it but she doesn't like it."
Luke: "How come you only had one friend in high school?"
Stormy: "Because I was so ugly nobody else would talk to
me. They barked at me when I crossed the stage at graduation."
Luke: "I don't understand. How did you look different then?"
Stormy: "I haven't changed except I got my boobs done and
I changed my hair."
Luke: "Do you think that you got into the sex industry to
prove to yourself that you are sexy?"
Stormy: "Could be. It had something to do with the euphoria
I felt the first time I went on stage [to take her clothes
off]. Men throwing money at me. It had more of an impact
on me than hanging out with the popular cheerleaders."
Luke: "How old were you when you lost your virginity?"
Stormy: "Thirteen. It was a good experience. I was with
the same guy until I was 17. He was my age."
Luke: "What clique did you hang out with in high school?"
Stormy: "Me and my friend. I was a journalist. Everyone
hated me. I was the editor of my high school newspaper in
my Senior year. I was also 4-H president. No wonder nobody
liked me."
Luke: "Did you write any scandalous stories?"
Stormy: "Yeah, but they always made me change it. I'd rather
write a short story than an article. I have notebooks and
notebooks of stories. I published some short stories in
high school."
Luke: "What was your high school GPA?"
Stormy: "I went to a magnet school so it was a 3.5. But
if I went to a regular school, it would've been counted
as a 4.0. If I started college now, I'd start as a sophomore.
In my Senior year of high school, I took physics, French
5 and chemistry. I got a 29 on my ACT. I never went to college."
Luke: "Do you work with black guys?"
Stormy stiffens: "No."
I'm touching on a touchy subject.
Luke: "And the reason is?"
Stormy: "I'm from the South. I'm not racist. My roadie when
I travel is black. He stays in my hotel room on the road.
My Mom has been so cool with everyone I've done, why throw
the one thing in her face?"
Luke: "How much time do you spend on the road?"
Stormy: "One week a month."
Luke: "What books have you read in the past year?"
Stormy: "I haven't read a whole lot. I'm embarrassed to
say that. I read more non-fiction, how-to books about horses.
I love those Chicken Soup for the Soul books. After every
story, I bawl like a bitch, and then move on to the next
one."
Luke: "Has being in this industry and dancing affected your
view of men?"
Stormy: "Yes. I'm better in this industry than I was when
I was in the strip club every night. Because when you are
in a strip club every night, you see nothing but the bad
sides of men. I'm not saying every guy I talk to in a club
is like that. I''ve met some cool guys. But for every cool
guy you meet, you meet 20 who are trying to get their wedding
ring off and telling you sh--. When all you see is the bad
side it's hard not to carry that into your personal life."
Luke: "So what have you done?"
Stormy: "I try to remember that everybody is an individual
and every situation is different. But it's so hard to do."
Luke: "What would you be doing if you had never become a
dancer?"
Stormy: "A veterinarian or a writer."
Luke: "Do you think you could go back to college and do that?"
Stormy: "Sure. I'm smart enough. Would I? I don't know."
Luke: "What did you think of the Primetime special on Belladonna?"
Stormy: "I didn't see it but I read about it on the internet.
I think she was represented unfairly. I'm sure that for
every bad thing she said, she said ten good things. Everything
has pros and cons. They always show the cons. Did I understand
where she was coming from when she was crying and saying
how it makes her feel? Absolutely. There have been days
when I've felt like that. When I had a horrible day on set
and I didn't like the guy I had to work with and the director
yelled at me. I hurt. I had cramps. I didn't want to be
there. If you're bloated and cramping and self conscious
and you've got to f--- somebody and look like you like it,
of course you are going to hate what you are doing. That's
any job you have. You're not human if it doesn't affect
you. You're not human if you never ask yourself, 'What am
I doing here?'
"I can totally understand what she said but she probably
should've been more careful in what she said knowing that
that's probably what they were going to air. I agree with
some of the stuff she said but I think it was stupid of
her to say it... I love my job. I'm good at lots of other
things. There are days when I don't like my job, but for
any day I don't like it, there are 50 that I love it."
Luke: "Who are your closest friends in the industry?"
Stormy: "Aria, Jessica Drake, Nicole Sheridan, Barrett [Moore,
boyfriend of DP contract girl Devon]. When they were split
up, we talked a lot."
Luke: "It's sad that no relationship lasts in this industry."
Stormy: "They're back together. I think they're going to
be ok. It was sad. Even when we were hanging out, I knew
he really loved her.
"I can't believe that Brad doesn't come over here and get
you away from me. I'm probably going to get yelled at [for
speaking to me]."
