Hailing from Albuquerque, New Mexico, Hime Marie is not your typical Adult Entertainer. Prior to getting in the Adult Industry, she worked as a makeup artist and aestheticism. In 2016 she got into webcamming. After meeting an agent from Florida at a convention, she initially rejected the idea of getting into mainstream Adult Films. A short time later, the agent reached out again and she entered what she calls the“World of X” during what she described as“the end of the golden age” of sex work — before the advent of OnlyFans. Today Hime Marie has over a half million cam followers on https://chaturbate.com/himexmarie/, multiple nominations for her work in Adult Films, and, a crossroad in her life, both personally and professionally.

SW: How did you find about Chaturbate?
HM: I always knew about Chaturbate. I knew that there were multiple cam sites out there because as I was starting to, you know, think about doing it, I kind of weighed out my options. And I thought it was like the best option because that was where most of the girls are and it looked so glamorous and they would get tipped so extravagantly. And I kind of thought it would be something like that but it wasn’t quite like that for me. I had a little bit of a hard time. Obviously, I wasn’t very experienced but on Chaturbate. I don’t know how to describe it. It was almost instantaneous that it clicked and stuff started happening for me.
SW: How long did it take you to understand the whole, I don’t wanna call it a game, but the process of being successful web camming?
HM: Honestly, I figured it out really within a month, the basics of how to run a successful cam show. You do have the advantage when you’re new, obviously. Everyone loves to play with a new hot girl. So, I definitely had that to my advantage. But you I still don’t know sometimes what the formula is because I have good days, I have bad days, and sometimes you can try everything and you’re doing everything right and the viewers just might not be feeling it that day. So, I don’t really know what the trick is, I think being charismatic and having a good personality really takes you a long way.
SW: You’ve done this for seven years now. That’s got to say something. What do you credit that longevity to?
HM: I don’t know, really. I’m just really motivated to keep being a better version of myself. My audience has like grown with me. They’ve seen me grow, if you will, from twenty-one to I’m now twenty-eight.
I gotta say I’m a completely different person now than I was when I was twenty-one. So, I think that plays a part in it too, is that I’m just always changing and evolving and I always have something new about me to offer to my viewers.
SW: How do you become a spokesperson to Chaturbate then?
HM: Spokesperson? I don’t know, I guess I consider myself a spokesperson for Chaturbate in a way, just cause I think they’re an amazing platform. In the way that they treat models. It’s just so inclusive. And they’ve never asked me to be a spokesperson, but if they ever did, I would be all for it, one hundred percent.
SW: But you make it a point to be upfront and center in the booth. You make it a point to be the first person people see when they walk in. Yes. That’s not accidental.
HM: No, that’s not accidental. I think that’s really important. in terms of conventions because the Chaturbate booth is huge. There’s a lot of people there. There’s a lot of people wanting space there. So, it’s important to be there early and to get your spot, and just so the fans can see you. And it’s important to me as well because I also have done mainstream porn.
SW: In your experience, do solo shows do better than maybe, do you even do boy-girl shows on Chaturbate?
HM: Yeah, I do. I’ve done boy-girl shows, I’ve done girl-girl shows, I’ve done threesome shows. I definitely think the more the merrier, when you have more people, it definitely has a lot more engagement. People are a lot more interested. And obviously you’re splitting the profits, but you make, quite a bit more. I think also promotion is a really big part of making those shows successful.
SW: And do you do any request shows? I mean, you mentioned people like to see you do anal earlier. Do you ever get requests for other things?
HM: Oh, yeah, all kinds of stuff. Like squirting, of course, you know, everyone has their different thing. There’s a lot of feet people on now. People love jerk off instructions right now. That is huge. Um, I’ve done some light femdom stuff on there, but sometimes people will just take me to a private session and they literally just want to talk. They want to talk for an hour or two because they, they probably aren’t, don’t really have that stimulation in their life for whatever reason.
SW: And do you find that there’s a particular part of the week that’s busier than another, maybe the weekend as opposed to the beginning of the week?
HM: I would say the weekends are definitely busier on Chaturbate. But I mean, if you look at the website at any given time right now, there could be four to five rooms with 6,000 viewers in it. The amount of traffic on that website is just always insane. It blows my mind how many people are on at any given time of the day or night. Crazy traffic on there just all the time.
SW: And you mentioned it earlier; for you, what’s the secret to keeping an up attitude maybe when the days are not going as well as some other days?
HM: Well, Red Bull helps, a little bit of caffeine helps. And you know, honestly, I just start talking about, honestly, whatever, because one of the worst things that you could have in your room is just kind of dead air where the chat’s not saying anything, I’m not saying anything, nothing’s gonna happen at that point. So I just start talking about anything. And usually, something will resonate with someone to where they chime into the conversation and then we can get the ball rolling from there.
SW: Had you taken any naughty pictures, nude pictures, anything like that before camming?
HM: No, I hadn’t. Camming was my first venture into sex work. I had never taken nudes. I had never been naked on camera before. It didn’t really feel that strange because I was in my own bedroom and I was comfortable in that aspect. It felt a little taboo, I can admit that.
SW: Had you seen adult material before that?
HM: Oh, of course, I have always watched porn.I still really like porn, but I really liked porn a lot before I even got into camming.
SW: When you saw adult material did the thought cross your mind that you could do that?
HM: No, it didn’t. I just thought, oh, this is just jerk-off material. That was all it really, I never thought I would be producing or making this jerk off material at all. But here we are.
SW: Was it that in high school you didn’t get enough attention from boys or maybe didn’t think you were pretty enough….did any of that play into it?
HM: Not necessarily. I was with this partner all throughout my high school. So, I had a boyfriend. I was really just more kind of restricted more than anything. My family was fairly conservative and I had this partner who was a little bit controlling. So, I never really thought about that, I guess.
SW: Having said that, I have to ask…when you start camming, the first time you see a man pull out his cock, does that surprise you? Does that shock you? Does that turn you on?
HM: I suppose maybe when I first started it was a little, a little shocking. I mean, but if the guy has a nice dick, obviously that’ll turn me on.
SW: But going into webcamming, do you even know what a show is? Or what is a good webcam show?
HM: So to me, a good webcam show is I, sign online, and usually the first half hour is just kind of hanging out with everyone, shooting the shit, and as the show progresses, as I get more tokens or money, that’s kind of how the show, the sexy stuff, starts to happen. And usually that happens within the first hour, hour and a half, I’ll get naked. Most days, honestly, I’m doing anal because that’s what people really like to see from me. So, I try to give them as much of that as possible.So, a good show to me is a little bit of hanging out, a little bit of anal, and a little bit of cool down after where we just still hang out and talk.
SW: To be a successful cam model, is it more about personality or is it the sex thing?
HM: It is one hundred personality to be a successful cam model. Being sexy and having a high sex drive, you know, it definitely helps, but the viewers are really there for an interaction or a relationship, if you will, with someone. And the sexy stuff is just kind of like the cherry on top, really.
SW: And how do you make the transition into the mainstream adult work?
HM: This is kind of a funny story. So, I was about three months into Chaturbate and they reached out to me and said, “Hey, we noticed you’re doing really well on the website and we would like to sponsor you for Exxxotica Denver.” This is when the convention was still in Denver. And they said “If you want to come out, we’ll fly you out, take care of you.” I said yes. That was my very first time ever camming at the Chaturbate booth and meeting all these people. And it was so much fun for a little twenty-one, twenty-two year-old me. I was just having the time of my life. I went to an after-party, of course. I got a little drunk and I met my very first agent there. He was also a little drunk, but he, and this is important because we were both intoxicated, we didn’t communicate with each other very well. He came up to me and he said, “Hey, I’ve been watching you on Chaturbate and I think you’re amazing. Would you ever be interested in coming out to Florida to work?” And I didn’t know what he meant by that. I was like, “What do you mean work? I already work.” And he said, “Do you wanna shoot for some companies?”
I was like, “I don’t really understand what you’re trying to say.” And he basically said, “Porn, do you want, are you interested in shooting porn?” And I got so offended by that. I was kind of like, “How dare you? What do you take me for? I don’t need to do any of that. I’m doing just fine on my own.” And so, the conversation didn’t really end well, but a few months after that, he messaged me on Twitter and said, “Hey, I think we got off on the wrong foot. The offer is still on the table if you’re interested in doing this.” And at that point, I had already done a boy-girl show on cam. So, in my mind, I was just kind of thinking, well, I’ve already done it. I’ve already had sex with someone on camera. Why not do this on a professional capacity and just see what it’s like? And again, I was going into it thinking, I’ll just shoot like a few scenes and just and probably be done with it there. So, yeah.
SW: Prior to doing mainstream adult work, did you have any preconceived notions about maybe the porn industry?
HM: I did, I thought, unfortunately because I was raised very conservatively, I thought it was kind of nasty and seedy and something I didn’t really want to be a part of. But being at this convention as well, the exposure at Exxxotica, you know, it kind of changed my opinion a little bit that, hey, these porn stars are just normal people. They’re just like me, you know, and they have all the same problems that I do. So that definitely helped. And once I got into it really and started being around more people, it really changed my perspective. And it helped a lot that the very first set I went on was really professional and nice.
SW: When you started doing porn, did you do it with the idea of promoting your camming work or did you temporarily stop camming and just focus on doing adult movies?
HM: I was still doing both, honestly, because I loved camming, I still love it. And yeah, it was in a way like, oh, I think this will really help out my webcam shows because people are going to recognize me from Pornhub or somewhere else. And it does happen still, so.
SW: Did you have a preference at any point between the two?
HM: You know, cause web camming is live and shooting is shooting. It’s so hard to say. It depends on my mood. Some days I really like just having to show up to set and just have everything taken care of for me, hair, makeup, the lights, the camera. And I just gotta get in there and do my job. But other days I do prefer camming. It’s a little bit more work on my part to get everything set up, get all my toys ready, but it’s nice because I get to do things at my own pace, in my own bedroom and you know, it’s very comfortable.
SW: And you mentioned earlier that you watched adult material. How long did it take for maybe you or someone to ask you like, you know, so what’s this really like? And now that you’ve done it, you’ve kind of seen what goes on behind the camera. Did that surprise you? Did that surprise maybe your friends? What, for you, what point did the reality of porn hit you as opposed to what people think it is?
HM: Honestly, when I was in Florida shooting and I was on set, the very first set that I was on was for Naughty America. I was just really kind of, not shocked, but just a little taken aback that these people are normal, they’re not creepy, they’re very professional.
They’re walking me through everything, making sure I’m comfortable, making sure I have water and food, coffee. I think that was the moment where I was kind of like, wow, porn is, it’s a little different than how I thought. I thought it was, I was gonna be like shooting in some seedy warehouse and the director was gonna be some creepy guy, but it was not like that at all.
SW: So, you start shooting adult work, at what point does it become a career for you? Is it a career now or is it just a job?
HM: I would say it’s definitely a career, it kind of became a career when I really just started taking off on Chaturbate because I just went full in. When I saw how much money I was making and what this could really be, I would say I decided it was a career within the first month of me being on Chaturbate and that I just wanted to go full on with this.
SW: When you begin doing movies, do you have goals for yourself? You know, I wanna shoot for Vixen, I wanna shoot for this, I want this magazine cover, so forth.
HM: Yeah, absolutely. Definitely had goals like that. And I’ve honestly done most of those goals. So I’m really happy about that. Yeah, Vixen was a big one. I shot for Tushy, shot for Vixen like a few times, and like the Vixen companies. I’ve been on XBIZ, been in the magazine. I was there, they don’t call it CamStar, they call it something else. But yeah, that was really an honor for them to offer me that. I got to write a little piece for them, which I thought was amazing. I’ve been nominated for lots of awards throughout my career. So that’s always very flattering to be acknowledged, by the higher ups, if you will. So I can say I’ve definitely achieved all my goals. The only one that maybe I haven’t done that I would love to do someday is a showcase. I think would be amazing if I ever get the opportunity to do that.
SW: Was there a point, an award, or something you felt you’d established yourself in the adult business?
HM: Absolutely. I think it was my second-year in. I was nominated for Best New Starlet. And that’s kind of how I knew, like, all right, this is serious. I really worked my butt off to get this. I kind of wish that I had relished in it a little bit more because I was kind of young and I knew it was important but I didn’t really know how important it was, you know?
SW: You seem to have a very good work ethic. Does that come from your parents? Does that come from what?
HM: I would say it comes from my parents. My dad has always instilled a very good work ethic in all of us to just work hard and never give up.
SW: When you started doing films, were you doing boy-girl for a little bit and then something else and then anal? Or did you start doing anal right away or was that a progressive thing?
HM: I started with boy-girl and then I would say maybe three months into shooting mainstream porn, I did do my very first anal scene for Tushy. And yeah, that was actually my very first anal experience ever, honestly.
But it was a good day, and they took really good care of me.
SW: Correct me if I’m wrong, didn’t Greg Lansky try and get you to shoot anal earlier or was that something he wanted and then you maybe waited?
HM: No, I think I had gotten the offer, and I was kind of pondering it for a little while. I think my agent just kind of said to me like, hey, this is is a really good offer and they were offering me a very decent rate for my first time. So, I just took it and it might’ve been a little early to do it, but you know what? After that, I started shooting a lot of anal and I don’t regret it because it’s kind of my preference to do. It’s a little easier on my body. You might hear some girls, a lot of girls that go with that sentiment and I actually really enjoy it and you get paid a little extra money for it. So that doesn’t hurt at all. Also Vixen is the biggest visible thing in the business. it was definitely an honor for them to have my first.
SW: You start doing adult, a what point do you bring the brand into it? Or does that happen right away?
HM: I honestly don’t really know. I feel I was always known as the, they call, sometimes you’ll call them the hybrids, girls that star doing cam work, but also does porn. And you see a lot more people like that now, but when I was first in the industry, that wasn’t super common. You kind of did one or the other, but I just always knew I wanted to do both.
SW: Are you’re on OnlyFans, LoyalFans, or somebody’s fans at this point?
HM: Yeah, one of the fans. I am on OnlyFans, however, I’m not really using it that much because I really think that website isn’t quite what it used to be because, you know, this might be a little bit of a touchy topic, but people really use that site as a meetup site these days when it is was never really intended for that. It’s just really exhausting. I’m at the point in my career where I don’t want to be that easily accessible to my fans. I don’t want to give them the impression that I’m talking to them all day, because I’m not, I really don’t have time for that. I just think it’s, I would really love if the industry could shift back to where we were kind of like actual celebrities, if you will. No one was talking to Jenna Jamieson all day, every day. That just wasn’t a thing. She was way too busy for that. And yeah, so am I. I’m way too busy to be doing that. And I just don’t want to.
SW: You’ve got all these managers and agents and all these people in the middle now. And OnlyFans to me was designed for you to get closer to your fans. And now that you’ve got a manager and two other people, you don’t know who the fuck you’re talking to.
HM: Exactly. I’ve gone through the whole manager thing a couple of times and it’s, that’s a whole other shit show, honestly.
SW: I know some of the people who work on OnlyFans and they loathe porn people. Adult people. I think more girls are making money now on the live chats and stuff than they are on custom vids and all that.
HM: 100%, which is why I pretty much went back to Chaturbate
because if you look at OnlyFans, everyone’s just going live there all the time, you know? And I’m already established on Chaturbate
I’m not gonna go live on OnlyFans because I don’t want to be limited to just my fans seeing me either. I want everyone to see me, which is why I go on Chaturbate
SW: Actually, before I forget, what is your OnlyFans, LoyalFans, whatever one you want to promote?
HM: If you do want to find me on OnlyFans, it is OnlyFans.com/himexmarie, same as my Chaturbate
SW: And do you do custom work?
HM: Yeah, I do custom videos. I do enjoy them. I don’t do them too often anymore because I have very extravagant prices for custom videos. And honestly, I named the big price. If someone pays, great. If not even better. That’s one less thing I got to do.
SW: Craziest request you got for a custom?
HM: Oh my God. So, this was a customer. I actually didn’t end up doing it because it was just so weird. He wanted me to wear a white nightgown. He wanted me to sit at a desk and hold a pencil between my lips for exactly nine minutes and not do anything else. And then take the pencil out of my mouth and say, hey, so-and-so, I completed your pencil challenge. One of his other requirements before this video is, he’s like, please eat a grilled cheese and drink a Mountain Dew before filming. Why the fuck does that matter? You wouldn’t know whether or not I had done it or I could have just said I did. It was really bizarre and weird.
SW: When you shoot content, do you shoot stuff you wanna see or stuff you think will sell?
HM: I shoot stuff that I think will sell. I try to be a little bit creative and try to put my own flair on it. But for the most part, I like to go on Pornhub and see what’s trending, what’s going on to get an idea, at least to a starting point.
SW: You mentioned your fans like a lot of anal. Are there more requests for POV type of stuff? Do you prefer doing the over-glam crazy stuff, if that’s the right way to say it?
HM: I mean, I would love to do more of the glamorous fun stuff. That’s kind of what I like to do, but the fans are very simple. They’re relatively easy to please. So they are usually very fine with like a gritty POV video. Honestly, those are the ones that sell a lot more than the stuff I put a lot of work and effort into. So, it’s surprising. And at this point, it seems like a lot of the creators are making stuff that’s almost as good or better than most of the studios. A lot of creators now, they all know how to use cameras. They all know how to use lights. They all know how to take stills. Yeah, the power is absolutely in the performer’s hands right now.
SW: And are you involved in the post side of things? Do you edit and do all that stuff too?
HM: I do know how. I know how to edit. I don’t like doing it though, so I do have an editor who I usually outsource stuff to if he’s not busy.
SW: We just finished two shows. XBIZ was first and typically AVN is first and then XBIZ. But for you, did you notice a difference in the shows as far as maybe fans or just anything in general?
HM: Yeah, so here’s the thing. I actually really like X3 as an event itself. I think it’s really fun, but it’s in LA, and the LA crowd of fans, they’re not that great. It is, they are so desperate. A lot of them also think because they themselves have an OnlyFans account, they are a creator as well. The amount of desperation there is insane. People approaching you, trying to sell themselves to you, get your attention, get you to recommend them to whatever. The desperation is just insane. There are still a decent amount of paying fans there, but I will say it seems as though the fans kind of know the AVN routine a little bit better and come a bit more prepared. There’s still definitely the content creators that want to come up to you and use whatever of your time that they have, but it’s much less there. I just think X3 needs a little more time to kind of get established in that way. It’s still very new.
SW: Yeah. maybe you’d understand this, don’t know, you seem like you get a closer interaction with people at X3 than you do at AVN. If that makes any sense.
HM: Yeah, you really do. I think just by it being like a closer space, you do. And yeah, like I said, I like X3 as an event. And like XBIZ as an award show.
SW: Say you want to start shooting five scenes a week or something, or maybe go back to camming right away? How do you approach that?
HM: I just go back to work as normal. Usually I would get right back into shooting and camming. At the moment I’m not really shooting that much , for my own health reasons. I’m just really limiting the number of scenes I’m going to take on this year in general. So, I’ve been very heavily camming, at least this time around.
SW: And you brought up a subject, we’ll call it collabing for sake of discussion. Is collabing important now? Is there that idea that anybody that’s got a cell phone that thinks they have an OnlyFans account that can shoot with anybody? Is that what this becomes?
HM: Basically, yeah. Yeah, because technically, yeah, anyone can make an OnlyFans account, verify who they are. And yeah, just start shooting POV from their phone and they might do it with a couple of girls. And then all of a sudden they think they are in the game and just as good as Ricky Johnson or something. So, it’s very annoying, honestly.
SW: And we touched on it earlier, but without mentioning names, there’s a lot of people who use that as an excuse for meeting. Meeting is a politically correct way to say it. Well, he’s got an OnlyFans account and you got one, so that justifies everything.
HM: Yeah.I, I think fucking a fan thing sets a really horrible precedent for this industry. I don’t think you should make yourself that easily accessible to fans. I just don’t because then they think that they can ask anybody that question and it just gets very tiring and annoying for the rest of us who don’t want to do that, you know? I’m not trying to shame anyone who does wanna do that, or if they’re really genuinely into it, have at it. I just don’t think it should be so heavily promoted or encouraged.
SW: And it creates all kinds of problems.
HM: Yes, yes, that’s why I really don’t like this whole new era of fucking our fans. You know, props to the girls who want to do that, but I could never.
SW: And you mentioned you’re gonna limit shooting. For you at this point in your career, does it make a difference who you’re shooting with? Or are you saying like Vixen calls and says, we want to shoot you for a boy-girl, you’re in? And maybe you’re in for somebody else. Like, does it make a difference at this point in your career who you’re working with?
HM: Yes, I’m definitely prioritizing quality over quantity.
And let’s say that they aren’t even just Vixen. They may not be the biggest studio. If I’ve worked for them before and they’ve been nothing but professional and the talents are good and they treat me good, I wouldn’t be opposed to that. I’m just not going to say yes to every single opportunity this time around just cause I, this last year, I gotta be honest, I really shot way too much and burned myself out, hurt myself physically from doing it too much. So. I just really realized at the beginning of this year that I need to slow it down a bit.
SW: Do you think that’ll grow more anticipation and interest in your OnlyFans and stuff like that by not being accessible to companies?
HM: I sure hope so. I sure hope it does. Right now, I don’t think people will really notice that much because I got a whole lot of scenes that companies have been sitting on for like over a year now that I’m still eagerly waiting for them to release. So I’m not too worried about that. Again, I’m not completely shutting the door on shooting, but definitely being a bit more selective.
SW: But from your own experience at this point in your career, does shooting a studio movie have that big of an impact on your career? I mean, are you getting that much exposure on social media and stuff where you notice the difference?
HM: I absolutely think so. I think shout-outs from these big companies, again, Browsers, Vixen, the one with the really big numbers, it makes a huge difference. And even, you know, other like creators, like when I shot with Dread, like my God, they love that man. And a little bit of promotion that he gave me really helped out.
SW: And when you’re not doing silly interviews like this or have actual have time off, what do you like to do?
HM: So in my time off, I really like to read books and I’ve started taking up ballroom dancing, so that’s really fun. I recently started feature dancing as well, and that is still work, but I find it very fun and really esoteric and, you know, expressive. So, I’ve been really enjoying that too.
SW: And when you dance, is this still three songs in a floor show?
HM: Yeah. So usually, yeah, usually I do three songs and then after that I’ll do a little meet and greet with fans, sign pictures, take pictures, do a few lap dances. I’ll take a little breather, get myself put back together and ready for the next dance.
SW: How much different are you than the Hime character? Is there a difference?
HM: There’s really not too much of a difference, honestly. Of course, when I’m on cam, I’m definitely a little bit more sexual, a little bit more flirty, but I wouldn’t say there’s too much of a difference. Honestly, what you see is what you get. And, If I’m on cam and I feel like, you know, talking about something really personal that I don’t think they’ll care about, I still do it anyway.
SW: Sexually, are you freakier on cam or freakier off?
HM: Definitely freakier on cam. When it comes to my recreational sex, if you will, I’m pretty vanilla. I like it to be pretty simple. Cause I feel like I do all my performing and all the fun stuff online and on set that when I want to have my recreational sex, I just want it to be nice and relaxing and simple.
SW: From being in this business, does sex have to be a big part of a personal relationship?
HM: Hmm, yes and no. So, I’ve been with my partner, Kyle, we’ve been together for over five years now. And sex is definitely an important part of our relationship, but it’s not the be-all and end-all either because we do it so often, you know, with a lot of other people. And sometimes when we both come home from set, we’re just exhausted. And it’s nice to just curl up on the couch with a blanket and just watch movies and enjoy that kind of intimacy with each other.
SW: You’re from Albuquerque originally, correct?
HM: Yes, originally I’m from Albuquerque.
SW: Growing up, did you go to public school, private school?
HM: I did, I went to Sibola High School.
SW: In grade school, did you have a favorite subject?
HM: I really liked art. I was always a very artistic artsy person and I really liked English as well.
SW: I know you’re really young at that point. Do you have any idea what you wanna do with the rest of your life?
HM: Oh man, let’s see, when I was really little, I wanted to be an entomologist, believe it or not. I was really into insects. I don’t know what happened. I grew up and got really squeamish and then I didn’t wanna do that anymore. I can’t quite think about what I wanted to do in middle school. But in high school, I had really high ambitions. I thought I was super smart and wanted to be a writer. I still think about that today. I could actually write if I really wanted to. So that’s a goal’s that’s not impossible now that I think about it.
SW: Are you going back to school at this point too?
HM: Yes, I’m going to be going back in the summer and fall.
SW: Are you looking to get a degree in something or are you just looking?
HM: I’m going to start with my Associates in sociology and then maybe if I want to go to university after that because I’m starting at community college, I might try to get an emphasis in religion along with those studies. I am doing it mostly because I’ve really have been so just wrapped up in the porn world for so long and just talking about porn and sex all the time. I just really need something different. I want something stimulating and engaging in a different way. I think that’s the biggest reason why I want to go back to school. What I will do with my like Associates Degree, I don’t know, but you know, I have the money to go to school to learn and that’s what I wanna do. So, I’m gonna do it.
SW: In high school, were you a popular girl, were you a loner, a geek, a nerd?
HM: I was very nerdy in high school. I played a lot of video games, I watched a lot of anime. This is before it was cool to do that, and it was still considered a really nerdy and weird thing to do, especially for a girl to be into all of that. I wouldn’t necessarily say I was a loner. I definitely had friends, but I was just kind of seen as the weird one who would watch anime and people would kind of look at me and ask, well, why would you watch a show that you don’t even know what they’re saying? That’s stupid. So, it was a very different mindset back then.
SW: Were you popular with the boys?
HM: No, no, I really didn’t wanna talk to boys in high school. I was just kinda, I don’t know. I was just not really into that. I just kinda wanted to watch my anime and play video games all the time. I mean, that obviously didn’t do well for me in school. I definitely probably didn’t do a lot of my homework because of that.
SW: Did your parents instill in you at a young age that sex was bad and wait till you get married and all that?
HM: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. They were very conservative. You should save yourself for marriage. They were even thinking about getting me a purity ring at one point, so stupid. Yeah, but you know, I listened to them, I was kind of like a child of the internet era at that point, where all this information’s kind of accessible to us. I was able to learn and research about these concepts and how that’s all they really are is just a concept or an idea. It doesn’t really have any meaning to it. I kind of always knew that as a young teenager, I guess. I was kind of like, yeah, whatever. I’ll just tell my parents think I’m a good girl, whatever, just cause that’ll make them happy.
SW: Were you sexually active in high school?
HM: No, not really. I did lose my virginity to my first boyfriend. I was sixteen or seventeen then, but yeah, I was never really like a slutty girl or anything. I said, I was just super nerdy more than anything.
SW: Do you have an agent now?
HM: I do. My agent right now is East Coast Talent.
SW: What can you tell people about East Coast Talent? East Coast Talent.
HM: I’ve been like on and off with them about three times, but you know what? I keep coming back. So, they’re doing something right for me. John is usually the guy that I’m in communications with, we’ve been friends this whole time. I appreciate his honesty with me. Sometimes he says stuff that I don’t want to hear, but I know it’s the truth and he’s right. We still butt heads occasionally, but you know, we managed to make it work.
SW: At this point, do you have any celebrity crushes?
HM: Yeah, I have a few. I would say my biggest celebrity crush though is Adam Driver. He’s the guy who played Kylo Ren in the Star Wars movie and like a bunch of others. Uh, he’s very attractive. He’s got a great body. His face is a little weird-looking, but I kind of like that.
SW: If you could do a celebrity sex tape with him, what could he do to you?
HM: That man could do anything he wanted except shit on me. But basically, anything else I’d probably be okay with.
SW: And what would you do to him?
HM: Anything he wanted or asked basically. As long as he doesn’t ask me to shit on his chest or anything, then we’re probably good.
SW: Are you into women, not into women?
HM: I am into some women. It’s just gotta be the right chemistry, you know. I kind of am more attracted to girls who have a very similar look or body type to mine, I would find.
SW: And you mentioned earlier you liked having anal sex. Are you known for anything else in the adult business? Some girls are good at BJs, boy-girl.
HM: Well, I was nominated for, what was it? ‘Ultimate Oral Creator’ or something for AVN? A fan award, I can’t remember. I think it was like ultimate oral content creator. I must give really good blowjobs as well.
SW: For you, what’s the secret to a good BJ? Are you a hand person, a spit person?
HM: I’m both, honestly. I think when it comes to giving a good BJ, you have to treat the cock like it’s royalty, really. I wanna treat it like it’s the best cock in the world and there’s no other cock that’s better than the one I’m sucking and I’m gonna make it feel like a million bucks. You don’t have to go crazy either. As long as you just have the mindset of this cock is royalty, you’re gonna give a good BJ.
SW: Do you feel a sense of power over a man when you have his penis in your mouth?
HM: Oh, absolutely. I’m in full control when I have his penis in my mouth, in my hands, whatever. Sometimes even before I have his penis out, I’m in control.
SW: Have you ever used your old abilities to get something you wanted?
HM: I don’t think so. I think I don’t really have to do that, honestly. I’m just kind of really good at batting my eyes and looking pretty when I ask for what I want.
SW: You mentioned you liked anal sex. Did you have anal sex before you got into adult business or it was like literally the first movie you did for Vixen the first time you had anal?
HM: So, I had played with my butt, like with toys on webcam, with some dildos, nothing really that big, but some average normal size dildos. My first Vixen shoot/ anal scene was for Tushy, that was the first time a penis had been in and out of my butt. It was definitely a lot different, but it wasn’t so shocking, I guess, it was fine.
SW: Is there a specific way to prep for this kind of a scene?
HM: Some girls put butt plugs in through a day, some girls do all kinds of different things. Honestly, I’m kind of at the point where I know what my body needs. I usually don’t have to stretch before. I find that my butthole is really used to it. I usually don’t need warmup unless I’m working with Dread or someone like that, then absolutely I will need to sit with a big butt plug for a while.
SW: And do you enjoy anal sex more at this point than vaginal sex or no?
HM: Some days, it just depends on the days, my mood. But sometimes I do enjoy anal sex more, just because it’s stimulating in a completely different way, especially for girls.
SW: We kind of touched on it earlier, but for you, after bending the business for seven years, now what is the reality of this business versus what people think it is?
HM: Oh, it’s hard to say. I would just say the industry, has very high highs, but with that come very low lows. I actually just recently watched the movie Pleasure that a lot of people in our industry were in. I thought everyone did a fantastic job in that movie and I’m kicking myself for not watching it sooner. I really think that movie does a great job at kind of showing the very visceral side of the industry. It’s not necessarily bad, but it’s very visceral is how I would describe it.
SW: You meet a younger version of yourself and she wants to get into the adult business. What do you tell her?
HM: Oh my god, I have no idea what I would tell myself. You know what? I don’t know if I would tell myself anything because I think I did everything how it was supposed to happen and any mistakes that I made. I needed to make those mistakes to to learn from them. SW: Anything you want to say to all your fans?
HM: I want to say thank you to my fans for supporting me for seven long years. I don’t know how you’ve been able to tolerate me this long, but I appreciate all of you so much. And I wouldn’t be where I am now if it wasn’t for you guys, just continuously supporting and believing in me. So, thank you so much. I mean, thank you.
Thank you Hime
