Kara Mynor: 'I chose not to work with Skooby (Fresh Talent Management) anymore because he keeps us locked up in a cage when we stay in that apartment'

After finding Kara (last Tuesday) incapacitated from smoking crystal meth, Skooby of Fresh Talent Management took action (including defacing her picture on his website and putting the link to a meth mouth site).

Hillary Scott writes on ADT:

Skooby has an apt where out of town girls stay. He went over there one night to find Kara laying naked in the fetal position on the living room floor foaming at the mouth with meth paraphernalia laying around. Of course she has a shoot the next day, obviously he had to cancel. He told her she's done with his agency. He leaves, comes back the next day and she's gone. Went back to Ohio leaving all of her stuff here for whatever reason. Now she is calling random people in the industry crying and saying skooby stole all my stuff and he did this and he did that. She doesn't tell them it's because she owes him $600 in agency fees that she refuses to pay. skooby got f---ed over. He's owed $600 and she's trying to ruin his reputation and all he has is some whore clothes and mess at his apt from all the meth parties. Childish as it is, doing that to her picture on his website just makes him feel a little bit better I guess. Hopefully she cleans up her act. I think Kara has a really good look (unless the meth sores are already starting to show) she worked a lot when she was here. Expect a quite a few of RLD/PX releases.

It's sad that the story Hilary said was mostly false. I am not missing. I have been calling skooby everyday for the past 6 days to get my things back. I traveled back home Tuesday to pick up more clothes since skooby refuses to give them back. Along with my laptop, makeup, and other personal items. I chose not to work with skooby anymore because he keeps us locked up in a cage when we stay in that apartment. I was in the apartment for 3 days straight, not able to leave or talk to anyone in this world except for him.

The insident on last Tuesday did happen. I will gladly admit that. It was the first time I had ever done that and I can honestly say I will never do it again. After being dehydrated for 3 days after the incident, I told myself "Never again". Some information Hilary has is wrong though. I was not laying naked in a fetal position on the living room floor. I was on the couch with a towel wrapped around me. I took a sleeping pill to help me fall asleep, I didn't pass out from the meth. Also, there was nothing around us.. And foaming at the mouth? When Bailey and a friend of ours had JUST put me in the shower to help me feel alright? I think we are also forgetting the fact that skooby smashed Bailey's computer against the floor. His temper is out-of-control. skooby did not kick me out of the agency. We went to Starbucks on that Saturday and talked about what was going on next week. Also, I did not have a shoot the next day. My shoot was on Thursday and it went very well!

People need friends. No matter where they are. Sometimes they just need someone to talk to. They need to get out. I was sitting in an apartment all alone- not even having the ability to leave. Unless I broke skooby's rules. And I did break his rules. I went out with some friends on Friday night. I was just sick of not being able to go out and be myself. I knew that I could lose skooby as an agent. I left at about 10pm. I was really fed up at this point that I shouldn't have to ask for permission to do anything and everything. I didn't need another father. So I made up my mind and told myself that I was going to find another agent. I went back the next day to the apartment, although it was in the afternoon, to pick up my things to find the apartment was locked. I tried calling skooby, to have him ignore my calls. I stayed with friends and in hotels hoping to get my things back. My phone charger was with these things.. So my cell phone went dead. I just called from the hotel room, left him messages either asking what time I could meet him or if he could leave the apartment unlocked. I gave him the hotel number and room number and I received no answer back. I traveled back to Ohio on Tuesday to pick up more clothes since I wasn't having any luck. I arrived back yesterday evening. I will be filing a police report and getting records of my phone statement from the hotels if possible and from my phone carrier so I can prove that I was calling to try to get my things back. So the next day, I was not gone. I also have my plane tickets to prove when I flew home.

skooby has $1,250 of my money. He never asked for an agency percentage- how could he if he wouldn't answer my calls? All he had to do was ask. He is intitled to the percentage. But he never requested anything. I have not spoke to him since Saturday of last week. I have called around to see if I could find his address so I could stop by and pick up my things. But he has a different address for the invoices than he lives at. I will be going to the police department today and filing a report. I have waited to long. When I was in Ohio, I wasn't sure when I was going to come back. I offered to pay the shipping and handling fees.

He's upset that I don't want him to represent me anymore. I told skooby I didn't want to work for him the beginning of July. Of course, knowing skooby- He starts screaming at me in the car, like he does about everything. A person can only take so much. skooby was a great agent at first. Then as time went by, I had to ask his permission to do everything.

I'm not too worried about my things. It can be replaced. The only thing I do want back in my laptop because I have pictures of me and my friends from home on there. And those are the only things that cannot be replaced.

But eh. Me and skooby agreed that mistakes happen. That people make mistakes. But I swore to him and Sammi that I had never done that before and I would never do it again. I would like to at least have a tiny bit control over my life. I have a father at home who can regulate if he needs to. What's wrong with having friends? I love my friends. I can't go 3 weeks without seeing anyone but people in the industry.. Who I am also not aloud to talk to. skooby flipped out because I didn't call him as SOON as I was finished shooting for Jimmy. I couldn't help the fact that I had cum dripping all over me and needed to jump in the shower ASAP.

Hillary Scott responds:

Kara, All I did was share skooby's side of the story. There is two sides of every story. You see in this game, the pimp must keep a strong hand. If not, us hoes would get out of control and start doing meth and hanging out with the wrong crowd. Trust me, skooby is the LEAST controlling pimp out there. If you stay at any of the other agents' houses you would know they have the same rules and them some, curfews and everything. You're young, you're in a new city and what could be considered a somewhat shady industry. You should appreciate a little protection.

When I first came out here, I had to deal with the same controlling bulls---, looking back I do appreciate it. You should really listen to the things he has to say, he has a lot of insight to this industry. He taught me the game good. Peeps know I'm good hoe. I show up on time and I'll give you the best scene in your movie. Once you show responsibility, he does back off. I'm genuinely sorry things worked out this way and I do hope for the best for the both of you. I really hope you weren't involved with the break in and robbery of skooby's apt last night.

The Suicide Attempt Of Kara Bare (Mynor)

She was living with and represented by Joel Lawrence's Gold Star Modeling. On Wednesday morning, as Joel and company were preparing to drive to Las Vegas for the show, Kara, coming down from a six-day Xanax jag, locked her door, slit her wrists, and then called Joel's assistant 20-minutes away to tell her what she'd done.

Scott Fayner broke the story Wednesday afternoon on lukeford.com: "Kara flipped out and ran down the street screaming. When paramedics arrived, Kara told them not to help her as she has done this many times. Apparently this all stems from Kara's custody battle, an infection on her cervix, and running out of pills."

Kara ran out on the street, her wrists bleeding. Joel Lawrence tried to corral her. The paramedics came after 15-minutes.

Kara screamed that Joel and company had been assaulting her.

Kara said to the paramedics that she had cut her wrists many times but knew enough not to go all the way to the vein.

That was all they needed to hear to strap her down.

She cried out, "This is my own body. I can do what I want."

"Not in California, you can't," said a paramedic. "It's a misdemeanor to try to kill yourself."

"I'm not Californian," replied Kara.

"Doesn't matter," said the paramedic. "You live within its boundaries."

Kara's parents were called in Ohio to come and get her.

"I don't have the money," replied Kara's mother. "I have to pay my phone bill."

"What would you rather have? A phone or a daughter?" she was asked.

"Of course my daughter," mom replied. "But I have to wait until Friday to see if I have the money to fly her home."

Kara's dad says, "She's been putting holes in my walls for years. I couldn't control her."

The hospital wanted Joel and his agency's information. Joel didn't want to take responsibility for Kara. She had just moved in a couple of weeks before. She was no longer his talent. He wanted to wash his hands of her and move on to the convention.

Have2Cit writes on XPT: "I wonder why they took the kid away?"

Kara's MySpace page shows she has 1041 friends. Where were they when she needed them? Are MySpace friends real friends? Is a person's number of real friends inversely proportionate to their number of MySpace friends?

Kara writes on MySpace:

I am 18, brown hair, blue eyes. I am petite at 5'2" and 100lbs. I am an adult performer and travel back and forth from LA back home to Ohio. I've been in the business since June of 2005 and have reached many of my personal accomplishments. I plan on going to college, but am not sure of my major yet. I'm the type of girl who rather sit around with a few good friends, rather than parties. Friends mean a lot to me. Everybody needs someone to laugh, talk, and cry with.

I share the same personality with only 2.5% of the world. I am a realist- rather than an idealist. I listen to advice - but rarely take it. I have to learn from my mistakes. I have my flaws, I have Obsession Compulsive Disorder but it's under control. I found this out from tickle.com. I was bored one night.

Who I'd like to meet: I've been in the LA area a lot. I have a few good friends here, but you can never have enough variety. Friends who just like to chill, friends who like to go clubbin', friends you can share your secrets with... Variety means everybody.

So I was driving my new Sentra. I was getting on the 101S in the pouring rain today.

I turn onto the entrance ramp. Stop at the light. Wait for it turn green. JUST start to go and BAM!! Some stupid kid read ended me. UGhhh. I got out. Threatened to kick some ass. He wouldn't get out of his car. Tried to drive away.

Kara blogs Oct 4, 2005:

I'm back in Cali for now and got everything (almost) situated in Ohio with my son. If it's too much to ask.. I would rather not talk about it because I don't feel like crying. And if you do ask about it, I'll probably get a little bitchy. So for your own sake.. Please do not ask. Thanks. I got my heartbroken. And that sucks. My first love and it just.. happened the way it did.

Kara blogs Aug 30, 2005: "My roommate caught me masterbating. We definatly need to get a bigger place."

Kara blogs Aug 28: "I talked to two lawyers on Friday. One told me it's an easy case because Logan's father did not have an emergency situation to take custody. The other told me that it was going to be a hard case because my job is just immoral- Not what he thinks but what my area of the country thinks."

Kara blogs Aug 25: "I am.. Not leaving the industry. I have decided that my occupation is MY occupation. It does not effect Logan directly, nor will I let it. He is not on sets with me and I don't even have sex in my personal life. Kara is not the same person as Shawna."

Kara blogs Aug 24:

I might be out of the game. I have a son who turns one TODAY.

I spend more time with my son than anyone else. I support him most financially. He's my best friend. The main reason for him [biological father] taking my son, I am moving to California with the baby. Second, I am a porn star. I am so happy being a porn star. But I am devasted without my child. I am so worried and I can't even stop crying.

Kara graduated from Midview High School in Grafton,Ohio in 2005.

She writes on ADT Aug 12: "I'm still here in LA. I've been trying to get ahold of Skooby but he ignores my calls. He has all my things and refuses to give them back because I do not want to work with him anymore."

Leah Luv replies Aug 15: "I can't get anything from Skooby because he is not my agent. Not only that, I wouldn't call him and ask him for someone elses stuff. Why would I? I dont even know Kara Mynor. Nothing personal but that is between her and Skooby. But to clear it up for those who dont know. I am a Spiegler girl."

Kara writes Oct 15: "I hate MYNOR. It made me cry when Skooby told me what my name was to be. Haha. Maybe I was a little too emotional then. But I have changed it to Kara Bare."

Kara writes Oct 18: "Interracial is in the future. However.. anal is not in sight yet."

Tom writes: "She's now on the LA Direct Model website listed as Kara Star."

Threesomebody writes: "Here today, gone tomorrow. She is no longer listed there."

Reddrose writes: "Yes it gets me how a girl can hop from agent to agent and not even last a week with the agent shes with but yet the next agent is sure quick to snag her .. (glutten for punishment i guess) HAAA Good luck to those agents. I learned my lesson on agent hoppers."

MyAdultGroups writes: "I've exchanged emails with her a bit on MySpace.com and it seems like she has alot going on in her life, like trying to get custody of her son back, a new boyfriend, Skooby drama, the fact that she can't take her son out of her home state, etc. She's only nineteen, so please cut her some slack. I do think that its personal turmoil and not bad character that is causing agent drama."

Jimmy writes: "Its not just agent drama, its how she treats people in general. I am not an agent, and she is still a twisted little jerk-off with delusional ideas and misconceptions on how to interact with others who are doing right by her and not having the ability to see what is logically correct and just. Flush this girl and her unappreciation, plenty of other deserving hotties for your attention."

Chico Wang writes: "I like this girl. Something about her is kind of intriguing. She hung out with me for a week and ended up shooting lights out for a bit. Don't really know what all the negative hubbub is regarding Kara but she did perform flawlessly for me and that's really all I can ask."

Kara tells XRentDVD.com Dec 16, 2005: "I've wanted to do it since I was 15 for some weird reason. It's so much fun and I love networking. I love meeting people. People are already telling me that my scenes are good and it is so much fun. My parents really don't approve of it that much but it is what I love to do. I had to drop them. I am really sad it had to happen that way but this is what makes me happy. Living in the Midwest, the people here are very disapproving and I can't help it. I have a son and his dad approves of it so that is all that matters to me."

Big D: Since you are not into the adult industry for the money, what keeps you making adult DVDs?

KM: It puts a smile on my face when people tell me they watched my scene and it was great and they tell me I am one of the greatest new stars this year. It puts a smile on my face and that's what makes me happy. Money doesn't make me happy because I could do soft camera but I don't. I want to have recognition from fans and have people tell me what a great job I am doing.

Hmm. I can see my pretty blue eyes.

I've gained about 10 lbs.

I've been shooting like everyday. Just got back from a 5 day trip to Ohio for the Holidays. I'll be on MTV on January 12th at 5:30pm. For the show NEXT. It was shot in October. Be sure to watch it. My real name is Shawna, which was the name I was shot under.

They called and asked me to be on the lesbian edition of the show to raise their ratings. I had so much fun!

My version of 'disorderly conduct' is being a workaholic and now I'm a sex addict.

Kara Bare posts Jan 11:

As you all have been waiting to hear.. I am not afraid to talk about the truth. So hear me out. I was taking xanex, they were not prescribed to me. I was very much addicted to them. I tok 4 one night.. I only remember taking 3. But someone told me I had taken four (the name will not be mentioned on who gave me them). The morning after.. the day I was supposed to leave for Vegas.. I didn't have any. I did flip. I did try to kill myself. I did slit my wrist. I was put in rehab for 6 days. I am withdrawing at THIS moment and it is horrible. ..Just wanted everyone to know the truth. I am okay. Still feeling depressed though. But things are getting better. I love you all for being concerned.

I am on Librium and Ativan. I am taking 4 prescriptions a day now. I have horrible withdrawls. I start to shake and studder. Gahh.

Kara writes lukeford.com: "I told Joel [Lawrence] when I first met him to put me somewhere if anything happened. And he did. I apprediate what he did. In case some don't think the situation is true... it is. Porn is getting to me. I don't know wat is going to go on from here. I heard advice that I should take a break and that's what I am doing. I am in love with a great man also. I don't know if he wants to make it publc so I won't mention who yet."

Kara Bare exclusive scar pics

Tony Malice writes on XPT:

Kara Bare dropped by the office today (she just got out of rehab, apparently) to show us her suicide scar. She says she took 4 Xanax bars (equivalent to 16 Xanax) - I'm no MD but I'm guessing that's a lot.

Try as hard as I did I could barely photograph the mark on one of her wrists from her 'suicide attempt.' She doesn't do anal, so my guess is this bogus suicide attempt was the only other way she could get attention.

Kara Bare responds: "What a great time I had at JM productions."

Tony replies: "Thanks for coming in, hopefully we can degrade you for the viewing pleasure of our fans very soon."

April 18, 2007

I interviewed Kara Bare by phone Wednesday, April 18. Here's the audio. As a child, Kara wanted to become a "professional cheerleader." "Cheerleading was my life in high school. I started cheerleading as a child. "My dad wanted cheerleading to be a career. That didn't work out.

"I grew up on a farm [outside of Cleveland]. [Her parents] didn't have too many expectations of me."

"I didn't hang out with too many people [in high school]. I was a loner. I just had a few girlfriends. I had one best friend and that was all I needed. I went to a preppy school and everyone was two-faced."

"I was the girl walking around in mini-skirts. I had a different boyfriend every month." "I'd walk down the hall and girls would be mean. I'd turn around and say, 'Yeah, I've got the body for it. So shut up.'

"People from high school message me on myspace. 'Oh, you look so good.' 'We're so proud of you. You're a small town legend. Everyone still talks about you.'

"I hear all good things now. They all want to be my friend now. But they weren't my friend then, so they won't be my friend now."

"I was a B student. I did enough to get by."

"I didn't graduate. I started doing the [porn] videos the weekend I turned 18 [signing with Skooby of Fresh Talent, her first scene was for Joey Silvera in Service Animals 21]. I started making money and traveling. The school I went to said I was missing too much school and I couldn't come back."

Kara says she first had sex at 15 and was with 20 people by the time she turned 18.

"My first scene came naturally to me. It won Best Gonzo Series. I amazed myself. I put all my nervous energy into the scene." Kara lost friends over her decision to get into porn.

"I had girls that were my two-faced friends in high school [say], 'I don't have to show my body for money.' I said, 'I enjoy doing what I do. Oh well.' I'm making the money and living comfortably [in Ohio, she flies to Florida regularly to do porn] they're working a part-time job and struggling."

"I just had my breasts done. I was a 32A and now I'm a 32C. I wanted to fit my clothes better and to feel more confident. I want to go to clubs and wear sexy shirts. Even the clothes I owned before fit so much better. I really need the confidence in this industry."

"The concept of the industry is amazing. It's like a whole separate world. I just really get into it. I do read gossip."

"Lowlights? I did go through the drug thing. I did make mistakes. I apologize to everyone I have hurt. I do have everything on track now. The falling out with Skooby would probably be my lowlight. I don't have anything against him. If I ever win an award, I will thank him for teaching me almost everything I know."

Luke: "How did you get into drugs and how did you get off them?"

Kara: "It was a girl in the industry... I was staying with her at Skooby's house. I tried meth one time and I was hooked. I was on it for ten months. Finally I just moved back home, with my mother, and started dancing and got my s--- together and working five days a week paying my bills."

Luke: "What happened that time you slashed your wrists while you were Joel Lawrence in January 2006?"

Kara: "I was on set one day. I was being lifted up off the ground and being choked... Just playing around on set. I passed out. I had fallen. My neck vertebrate were messed up. I had to get acupuncture the next day. I was taking xanax to sleep. I didn't realize I was addicted." "I just woke up one morning [in the ambulance] and everything was a blur."

Luke: "Who choked you?"

Kara: "I don't want to name names. I don't want to make anybody look bad. I do like to be choked, but he was doing it so roughly that I liked it."

Luke: "What do you love and hate about being a porn star?"

Kara: "I love the attention. Being a cheerleader, I always loved being the center of attention. I always had to be center. I had to be the best cheerleader on my squad. In the industry, I like to keep taking steps up. Hopefully one day I will be the center of attention of the industry."

"I had a livejournal while I was still in high school. It was copied and pasted somewhere. I have no privacy. People take negative things, not the positive things. People try to make me look like a bad person and I'm not. In any entertainment business, that's what people are going to do."

Luke: "Are you a good mother?"

Kara: "Yes. When I was on my drug thing, I didn't come home to visit my son. I was going through a big custody issue. Since I've been clean and gotten my life back together, me and his father have gotten back together. We're now living together. I spend as many seconds with my son as possible. He's a beautiful little boy."

"I'm very very young [19]. One day I'll wake up and know exactly what I am supposed to be doing."

Luke: "How does working in this industry affect your self-esteem?"

Kara: "It raises it." "I have minor tiny flaws. I walk around. Sometimes in the mall girls get jealous. I live in ghetto city now. We're in the process of moving. They get mad because I'm a white preppy girl. I blow them off because I don't care. I'm better than you. I make a lot of money. I'm beautiful. I just keep walking."

Moxie posts on XPT: "Kara has always been one of my favorite performers and for very good reason. Every scene she does is fantastic, she puts alot into her performance and not a bad scene yet. As you can see below, her new rack is absolutely spectacular. Some girls should not get boob jobs. Kara is not one of them. Great Job!"

Sooper posts: "She's cute. Will the new tits forestall other suicide attempts (clicky) or (clicky)? Help her broken back (clicky)? Or make her a better teen mom? Wake me when she does anal."
