Desiree (Tylers Talent) Returns From Iraq, Enters Porn

I call her Monday afternoon, Feb 20, 2006. She's just finished dinner.

For a tough chick, she has a tiny voice and I can barely pick it up on my tape recorder.

Luke: "What prompted you to get into the porn industry?"

Desiree: "It was something that I've always wanted to do."

I hear that a lot. How could someone always want to get into porn? From age five?

Luke: "Really? Since what age?"

Desiree: "Nineteen. I just never had the balls to do it. I'm older now. I really don't care what too many people think about what I do."

Luke: "Did you watch a lot of porn as a teenager?"

Desiree: "I watch some with my brothers."

Luke: "Did you love it?"

Desiree: "It's OK. I've always wanted to be a model but that industry is so competitive and hard to get into."

Luke: "When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?"

Desiree: "A doctor."

Luke: "What did your parents expect you to become?"

Desiree: "Whatever I wanted to be."

Luke: "What kind of crowd did you hang out with in highschool?"

Desiree: "Jocks. I ran track. I was on the pom pom team."

Luke: "How did you get sent to Iraq?"

Desiree: "I was in the Army [for four years] and it was our unit's turn to go."

Luke: "Why did you sign up with the Army?"

I think she says she didn't know what else to do. She signed up at age 20. She was a fulltime soldier for four years. She was a parachute packer.

Luke: "Did you ever pack someone's parachute incorrectly and they dropped and it didn't open?"

Desiree: "No."

Desiree did 32 jumps.

Her unit went to Kuwait in May 2004 and then to Iraq in October. They left Iraq in May 2005. Desiree got out of the Army in July 2005.

Luke: "How was your experience of Iraq?"

Desiree: "It's not something I want to go through again. That's why I got out [of the Army]. Not a lot of good things happened over there. I had friends get killed."

Luke: "Were you scared most of the time you were there?"

Desiree: "At first, yes. But not after getting used to things."

Desiree says she had no sex in Iraq.

Luke: "Was Kuwait party central?"

Desiree: "No. You don't have to worry about people shooting you or a bomb blowing up."

Luke: "Do you think it was a bad idea for the US to invade Iraq?"

Desiree: "Very much so. We have an asshole for a president. I don't think Iraq had anything to do with 9/11. If we're looking for Osama, why are we in Iraq?"

Desiree has done some magazine shoots and a boy-girl shoot for Icy Porn.

Luke: "What are your ambitions?"

Desiree: "To go as far as I can in this industry without falling on my face."

Luke: "How do you think your friends and family are going to react when they find out you're in porn?"

Desiree: "They're going to be pissed. I'm 25. I can't live for my family. Nobody else is going to pay my bills and take care of my son."

Luke: "How do you think it is going to affect your love life?"

Desiree: "I don't think it will. Not everybody watches porn. Not everybody will know who I am."

Luke: "Are you scared?"

Desiree: "I'm scared of failure."

Luke: "What do you like to do in your spare time?"

Desiree: "Go shopping. Go bowling. Play with my son (6yo)."

Luke: "How are you going to explain to your son how mommy became a porn star?"

Desiree: "When he gets older. If it never comes up, it never comes up. If he asks me, I'll tell him. I had to do what I had to do."

Luke: "Have you experienced racism?"

(I remember once I asked a Holocaust survivor -- I didn't know he was that old and had gone through that -- if he'd ever experienced anti-semitism.)

Desiree: "I'm from the North. Going to the South and dealing with a club in North Carolina, where I live... They can't say, 'Blacks can't come here.' But they have ways of weeding us out of there even though gangs aren't a problem. They do it to keep the blacks out of there."
