Is the sex enjoyable when
you shoot a scene or does
the presence of camera
and crew inhibit the
pleasure? Isabel
Ice: It's not like
real life sex. The focus
is on making great porn
which is the buzz for me.
The sex is just a part of
a bigger picture. For
example, I would never do
double anal in my
'private' life, but that
doesn't mean I don't like
to do it for porn. I find
porn is almost like a
forum, where you can try
the maddest sexual acts,
and have no
repercussions, like you
can say what you want, do
what you want, and when
it's over, everyone goes
home. No small talk, no
worrying if the guy
thinks you're a slut,
because you are, and
you're a great slut! The
camera crew being there
doesn't bother me at all,
but sometimes, the guys
struggle when there's a
lot of people in the
room. Sex in private, and
sex in porn are two
incomparable entities.
What's
the most difficult scene
you've ever had to shoot?
Isabel
Ice: I don't know.
None of the sex acts are
difficult for me. When I
get bored is when I start
to find things difficult.
Like, if the guy has a
soft cock, it really
starts to grind on your
patience after a while,
because instead of there
being a method behind the
madness, it becomes all
stopping, and starting,
and more stopping and
starting. The same can be
said of shoots with
companies who like to
have a lot of cuts. I
just want mad sex. A 30
minute scene in my book,
should take 30 mins to
film. I also find having
my photo taken very
difficult. I hate posing.
I'm a porn star, not a
glamour model! haha
Which
of your films was the
most fun to make?
Isabel
Ice: Anything with my
favorite
companies/guys/girls are
always great to make. I
always have fun when I
work with Steve Holmes,
Manuel Ferrara, Mr.Pete,
any of the Platinum X
Pictures, or Red Light
District boys. We're
friends off set as well.
While I'm in LA I go
bowling every night with
those lot. We even have
our own bowling balls,
and shoes... Not very
Rock n Roll... the crazy
life of porners revolves
around our nightly fix of
sushi and bowling!!! hehe
Actual films where I've
had great fun are: Belladona's
Fucking Girls/ My
Ass is Haunted. (I
usually hate g/g, but
Bella's my idol, so it's
a different ball game) Tear
Me a New One... all
of my favorites involved.
I just did a great
British scene with Lee
Henshaw, and Jazz Duro,
double anal all round for
Harmony Productions. And
I found a sick new friend
in Jazz. hehe.
You've
recently been working in
the States - what are the
main differences between
American and British porn
from your point of view?
Isabel
Ice: The major
differences are the time
it takes to shoot movies.
In America, it's
literally in and out for
gonzo porn most of the
time. Unlike the UK,
where things are a little
less organized. The
second huge difference is
the talent pool. All of
the best men head
straight to LA. The
better the male performer
is, the easier the scene
is.
Is
it possible to make a
decent living from acting
in porn?
Isabel
Ice: It is very easy
to make money from the
industry, but you only
have a limited shelf
life, so you have to be
smart. Finish school,
have a stand-by career,
because it's easy to fall
into the trap of assuming
you'll be making that
kind of money forever.
Away
from the sex industry
what are your main
interests?
Isabel
Ice: I love salsa
dancing, cooking,
socializing. I love going
to the movies, and
although I only go whilst
in LA, I suppose bowling
would have to come under
one of my interests. I
also love photography,
and art, and I collect
expensive sex toys.
What's
your favourite book,
movie (non-porno) and
record?
Isabel
Ice: Book is The
Damage Done by
Warren Fellows (a true
life story of a guy in a
Thai prison for an
unthinkable amount of
time... I cried many
times during this book).
Film is a hard one... I
love Pedro Almadovar,
he's so twisted, but
believable. So I'll say La
Mala Education but
that's just one of many
of his films that I love.
Record. Hmmm, there's
just so many to think
of... at the moment I'm
really liking Franz
Ferdinand, but I'm into
all sorts of music. I
think if I had to name
just one, I'd say...
Parliment/Funkadelic's One
Nation.
What's
your idea of the perfect
man?
Isabel
Ice: Ohh... hard! I
don't have a 'perfect
man'. Although I tend to
go for darker people. Not
on purpose, but when I
think about who I fancy,
they all seem to be olive
skinned or dark haired.
Personality wise, I like
people who are funny, but
dark at the same time. I
like to get a little sick
sometimes. And of course,
the typical - kind, nice
etc.
Who
would you like to star
with in your fantasy
Welsh porn film?
Isabel
Ice: I'd like to be
involved in a
mini-gangbang with
members of the Super
Furry Animals.
What
are your long-term
ambitions in porn - and
beyond that?
Isabel
Ice: In porn, to just
keep making porn to the
best of my ability. To
keep having fun with it,
and who knows where
that'll lead. Beyond
that, I would like a
family, and a job that I
really enjoy, and of
course, I want to travel
more.
Finally
Isabel, what advice would
you give to any young
Welsh women thinking of
going into the industry?
Isabel
Ice: Think very
carefully before you go
rushing in looking to
make a quick buck. Sum up
what the pros and cons
are, and whether the
sacrifices you make are
going to be worth it. You
will experience
prejudice, and it will
restrict certain things
you will be able to do in
the future. Think about
the relationships you
have and if they can
withstand an issue like
porn. If you still think
that it's the right
option for you, get a
good agent, don't do
anything you don't want
to, and good luck. Wales
needs to be more on the
map, and if the only way
I can do it is through
porn, so be it!!!
Great
stuff! Thanks very much
Isabel.
