2/4/06

Outside Basque, I spend almost 20-minutes chatting with Aaralyn Barra. She comes to the party with Ray from PornValleyNews.

Aaralyn Barra's MySpace page. Aaralyn's agent is Fresh Talent Management.

She was born April 24, 1985 and lived in the former Soviet Union until she was 11 when she moved to Philadelphia.

On her MySpace page, she says she wants to get married and is taking applications.

In porn for six months, Aaralyn has done 54 scenes.

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

Aaralyn: "The need for fame and money."

Luke: "What were you doing before?"

Aaralyn: "A various assortment of odd jobs. I worked for Foot Locker. I worked as a secretary for a community college."

Aaralyn plans to relocate to Los Angeles.

"I love the money. I love that I get to express myself sexually. I welcome that my aggression is welcomed as opposed to, 'Ohmigod, I can't f--- you in the morning. You're too much for me, girl.'

"I hate that people are so judgmental about bodies. You can't please everyone. There's always something that somebody really likes and another person really hates."

Luke: "How has it affected your personal life and your lovelife?"

Aaralyn: "Surprisingly, it hasn't. I was always promiscuous.

"Dating? I'm more into dating guys who are in the industry. I always start out relationships with guys saying, 'I don't care that you're a porn star.' But a few weeks down the line, you get all these questions: 'Where are you going? How long are you going to be there?' Too much b------."

Luke: "What are the joys and tribulations of dating people inside the industry?"

Aaralyn: "The joys are that they really aren't as jealous and clingy. For the most part, they don't care what you do. On the other hand, let's say I was dating a guy I knew was in the industry and I came up to the set one day and he was there rubbing up on some girl... Even though I know he's doing that to keep his mojo up..."

Luke: "So you can get jealous too?"

Aaralyn: "I can. I think I just contradicted myself."

Luke: "I assume you can only get jealous if you care about the guy."

Aaralyn: "If I really care about someone, I will get jealous. If I don't get jealous, it probably means I don't care that much."

Luke: "If he doesn't get jealous, it means he doesn't care."

Aaralyn: "It's just like that in real life. I don't get jealous easily unless I really care about somebody.

"There aren't that many differences between my regular life and my porn life."

Luke: "How have friends and family reacted?"

Aaralyn: "My mom and dad divorced when I was very young. My father obviously is not in my life. My mom knows what I do. Even though she wishes I would do something else, she was very happy when I gave her the money for a downpayment on a new house. She really doesn't care that much."

Luke: "Have you lost any friends over it?"

Aaralyn: "I don't keep friends for very long. I'm always very busy with whatever I'm doing and friendships have to be nurtured. There are certain friends who understand where I'm coming from and if I don't call them for four weeks, they understand. A lot of people take the fact that I am never around very personally. They take it as though I'm ignoring them."

Luke: "How does that affect your happiness that you don't keep friends?"

Aaralyn: "I have some friends. I'm happy. I'm content with myself. I'm very intelligent. I keep myself occupied."

Luke: "How long do you want to be in the porn industry?"

Aaralyn: "For a few years. In a few years, if I feel I'm ready to direct, I'll direct. Otherwise I'll invest my money in stocks or something."

Luke: "What do you want to accomplish with your life?"

Aaralyn: "I want to make enough money so that I'm comfortable and don't have to worry about anything. I want to provide for my mother. Most importantly, I want a family. I want to be a mom and have Thanksgiving... Careerwise, I'd like to have my own company."

Luke: "Have you thought about how porn is going to affect the rest of your life?"

Aaralyn: "Only for the better. This is an investment in myself."

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

Aaralyn: "Read. I just got done with The DaVinci Code. I'm no longer a Christian because of it. Have you read it?"

Luke: "Yes. Were you Christian before?"

Aaralyn: "Yes."

Luke: "How long did it take you to read The DaVinci Code?"

Aaralyn: "Three days."

Luke: "So you stopped being Christian in the last three days?"

Aaralyn: "Yes."

Luke: "How did you reconcile your Christianity with your pornography?"

Aaralyn: "I don't know how to answer that question."

Luke: "Play with it. Go do something with it. Anything. Were you a regular churchgoer?"

Aaralyn: "I was never a regular churchgoer."

Luke: "Did you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ?"

Aaralyn: "No."

Luke: "Did he ever talk to you?"

Aaralyn: "No, he never talked to me.

"My mother is a Christian. She goes to church. I was never religious. I just believed. It was drilled into my head from the first. Jesus Christ is my savior."

Luke: "The DaVinci Code is a novel. I've met so many people who've said what you've said, yet The DaVinci Code is a made-up story. It's not based on facts. How can it affect your view of anything? It's a made-up story."

Aaralyn: "So's the Bible."

Luke: "How do you know?"

Aaralyn: "How do you know The DaVinci Code never happened?"

Luke: "I know that The DaVinci Code never happened because it has been documented to be a work of fiction."

Aaralyn: "The actual story..."

Luke: "But what it is based on is a fraud."

Aaralyn: "But what about the painting?"

Luke: "There's nothing to it. It's just a story."

Aaralyn: "That's your thinking."

Luke: "It's not about thinking. There's nothing to The DaVinci Code but a story."

Aaralyn: "When I read a certain chapter in the book, I'd go online and find things that I found convincing. The book brought up a lot of ideas. Christianity is somebody's idea. His main point in the book is who decided what was true and what was not true. Who put these things down in writing. In my opinion, the Bible is bulls---."

Luke: "In three days, you lost your religion."

Aaralyn: "The DaVinci Code changed my life.

"I'm reading Angels and Demons now [also by Dan Brown]. I'm not impressed. I stopped reading it after two chapters. I wish I had read it first."

Luke: "What other books changed your life?"

Aaralyn: "Marilyn Manson's biography when I was 13. It made me realize what freaks some people are."

Luke: "Do you like freaks?"

Aaralyn: "I like sex freaks. I don't necessarily like psychological freaks."

Luke: "Are you submissive in your personal life?"

Aaralyn: "No. I'm domineering."

Luke: "Are you attracted to submissive men?"

Aaralyn: "No. I like a challenge. I like to wrestle. I'm strong. I work out. I can do 50 push-ups in a minute-and-a-half."

Luke: "Ninety-five percent of guys are going to be stronger than you [even those who don't work out].

"If you kick a guy's ass, do you still want to have sex with him?"

Aaralyn: "Definitely not. Where that power struggle once was, my interest is gone now. OK, you're just another pussy. Why am I going to waste my time with you?"

Luke: "If you wrestle with him, I assume he's going to get an erection and want to have sex with you."

Aaralyn: "No. I'm pretty rough. If they were turned on by it, I would reconsider my position."

Aaralyn says she's pinned about a dozen guys to the floor. "I don't wrestle every guy I meet."

Before porn, Aaralyn slept with about 60 guys. She lost her virginity at 14 and did another 40 guys before turning 18. From 16-19, she says she in a monogamous relationship with the father of her child.

Luke: "How has it affected you [to sleep with so many guys]?"

Aaralyn: "It hasn't."

Luke: "Come on. It must've. Made you more cynical about men?"

Aaralyn: "Definitely. It's allowed me to read into people more deeply. Most of the time when a guy comes up to me, I already know what he is going to say before he says it. It's made life more boring."

Luke: "It's jaded you."

Aaralyn: "Definitely."

Luke: "What type of men are you attracted to?"

Aaralyn: "Black men and Germans. I like actors. I like men who are sure of themselves but not cocky. I like men who have a job but are not too busy, men who pay attention to me but not smother me. I like men who know where they are going in life."

Luke: "So do you find that in porn?"

Aaralyn: "Oh no."

Luke: "If a guy has something going on, he's not going to be working in porn."

Aaralyn: "I don't plan on having anything longterm with anyone in porn."

She has 36 college credits. She says she first majored in Journalism, then switched to Psychology and then switched to Criminal Justice, then went into porn.

Luke: "Do you like interviewing people?"

Aaralyn: "I do. I should interview you."

Luke: "How do you like being interviewed?"

Aaralyn: "I'm apprehensive. I don't know whether certain things I say may be mistaken. I gave an interview once where I was bluntly honest and people considered it cocky. I reinterviewed to say I was sorry for sounding cocky."

Luke: "You are cocky."

Aaralyn: "You think I'm cocky? I'm not cocky. I'm just confident. Cocky people think they're better than other people. I don't think I'm better than anybody. I'm just damn good."
