Alec Metro

Well-groomed male performer Alec Metro (Brendon Joseph Claybourn) has over 500 videos to his credit since entering the business in 1995. "When I started, I shot every day. I've done lots of films. I'll be on cable and Spice for a long time. Some of the stuff I first shot [three years ago], is still on there.

"I took six months off, and came back in 1997 strong. Once again, I went after the best projects in the business.

I entered the business by doing a layout for photographer Earl Miller of Penthouse. Then Playgirl.

"After I did Penthouse, my best friend talked me into doing porno. The company I worked for was folding. My boss was floating checks. So, I got $1000 for the Penthouse layout. I thought, 'this isn't too rough. Eating good food. Sitting around with pretty girls. So I got an appointment with Jim South and got a job within two hours. I was sent to Palm Springs for the weekend to shoot for Roy Bruington where I f---ed superstar Jordan Lee. And Jordan Lee launched my whole career. She got on the phone and told everybody.

"Helen DuValle did the same thing. My phone didn't stop ringing. When I showed up on the set, I met another actress who told me, 'you need to call this director. I'm working on Thursday and I want to do it with you.' Next thing, I didn't even know who Jim South was."

Luke: Why did Jordan Lee like you so much? Did you also have a swastika tattoo'd on your ankle?

Alec: The girls like me because I do a good job with them. The key to being a successful porn actor is to get along with all the females in the business, so they ask to work with you. The sex looks good when you try to push their buttons. Each actress is different, and they have personalities which make them difficult to get off. It's a challenge to get a porno actress off. I've had women tell me, 'I've never cum before on video.' That's flattering."

During 1996 Alec fell in love with Houston. He took six months off the business to tend to their relationship.

In 1997, the ex-fireman fell in love with Raylene. They star in Café Flesh 2. As of 9/98, they'd been together 18 months.

In the summer of 1998, Albo and HEVG obtained a restraining order against male performer Alec Metro for his threatening phone calls. Metro supposedly said: "…I do my pop-shots now during my sex scenes thinking about how bad I'm gonna f--- you up, Albo…and if you think you can record this to protect your ass, remember this: it's admissible in court, you asshole…"

Alec follows behind a long list of porners who've been infuriated by Albo's cutting style. Al Borda hated HEVG calling him a "cocksucker" and "retard." Albo says Jim Holliday won't talk to his staff "because several of our reviewers felt his movies were pretentious, long-winded tripe."

For pornographers who want to get good reviews, Mike recommends not acting "like a fag… Hey guys, keep those wrists straight when pointing…and stop doing those double-anal scenes where you rub dicks with another guy."

For those porners who can't take criticism, "just commit suicide. It's become something of a porn tradition and we'll always remember you for such a dramatic act." (HEVG 9/98)

Mike Albo told Agonizer.com 7/01: "Alec Metro tried to threaten me with this elaborate scheme he had worked out where he would start a fight with me, I'd retaliate, the cops would come and arrest us both as "mutual combatants" and then, with his "connections" as a former prisoner, he'd put a "jacket" on me as being a child molester so that the other prisoners would kill me. And if that didn't work, I'd get my ass whupped because "Northern Mexicans hate Southern Mexicans, and vice-versa." Since I'm Italian-American, I never quite figured out his reasoning on that.

"He also went on to say that if none of that worked out, he was going to gather seven of his "homeboys" from prison to do a number on me for allowing one of our reviewers to say that Metro did a pretty good impersonation of a heterosexual in some movie he did. He was also stupid enough to leave these threats on my voicemail. Well, he might have had seven homeboys, but I had Larry Flynt's legal department. Guess who won? We served Alec with a restraining order, and for a year or two after that, it was kind of fun to sneak up behind him and say "hi" and then watch him head for the hills."

9/23/98: Alec Metro has signed a non-exclusive contract with Eli's All Good Video. Alec does six scenes a month for them and represents AGV as their lead performer. Metro has had leading roles in bigger budget productions like the $250,00 budget Snow Leopard (directed by Nicholas Orleans) for Extreme Entertainment (Ultimate revamped, not to be confused with Tom Byron's Extreme Associates).

"Next year I'll start directing.

"Larry Flynt Publications placed a restraining order against me [because Alex made some angry phone calls to Mike Albo, the editor of HEVG]. They also sued me for the court costs of $4000. I hired an attorney to take care of that.

"I was on a shoot on Leisure Time and no one would come down because LFP has a restraining order against me. I've talked to Jimmy Flynt, Larry's nephew. He doesn't have a problem with me. I just have a problem with Mike Albo. Now I realize that it is positive press and that Hustler rips on everybody. So now I've changed my whole attitude. It no longer bothers me. At first it did. But it [Albo's ridicule directed against Metro] hasn't hurt my career.

"If directors or women stopped working with me because of what Mike Albo said, that would bother me. But it's not happening, so I have no reason to be upset. As Jimmy Flynt said, 'that's why we hired him [Albo].' That's good enough for me."

Alec's girlfriend for the last 18 months is Vivid girl Raylene, another frequent recipient of cutting remarks and ridicule from Albo and HEVG (Hustler Erotic Video Guide). "We have two dogs."

James DiGiorgio comes over. "Somebody [Jim D.] put her as the lead in their [Sin City] movie [Night Shift 2], and she got this unbelievable box cover because of it… Vivid started using that box cover in their ads."

Alec: "That is true. That was one of the hottest box covers ever shot on her. Sin City escalated her career to be noticed by Vivid."

Jim: "Who brought her to Sin City?"

Alec: "She thought it was Bud Lee."

When Raylene worked on Night Shift 2 for Jim, she thought the long-haired hippie was Bud Lee, another long haired hippie.

Jim: "She walked up to me and asked 'how's Asia?'"

Alec: "I never read my reviews. To me, AVN was most important. I didn't even know that Hustler had erotic reviews. Raylene picks up every magazine she thinks she might be in. So Raylene started picking up Hustler Erotic Video Guide and Mike Albo was already ripping on her. We didn't know that was the norm. We thought that was rude. So when he called for an interview, she declined it. But she declined it through me.

"So, they took it as me being a suitcase pimp. I guide Raylene towards good video projects, but when it comes to layouts and interviews, she's on her own. They [HEVG] directed an attack towards me and they hit my buttons, accusing me of being homosexual. That bothered me. I did not want fans to think that I was a homosexual because I can't defend myself. There might be video footage where my hand twisted weird or I looked weird, but when you're shooting video, you'll make some weird reactions. We all have some feminine qualities. It does not make us homosexual."

Alec Metro Writes 5/8/99:

Just wanted to stop by and drop off some information regarding my continuing monthly thrashing from Hustler Erotic Video Guide (HEVG) magazine editor Mike Albo.

As we all know in the industry, Mike Albo is not nice about people's feelings, emotions or well being. He of course thrives on peoples misfortunes, mistakes and ill situations. We all understand that the public people want to hear about our misfortunes, and that's understandable. Nobody wants to hear how much fun we really are having. I'm having a great time being a lead male actor in porn. I'm currenty one of the top working men in this industry and I am very proud of it. I also understand that being in this position opens me up for juicy gossip. I'm sure we've read about me being locked in prison for some drug dealing mistakes when I was in my early twenties. I lost seven years of my life behind bars. Of course when you go to prison or you have been in prison, people's biggest joke is, "Hey did they have sex with you, was there a lot of raping going on," stuff like that.

Truth about prison: Its a very hard life, there are lots of deaths within the prison system. We were always on lock down because of North and South hispanics trying to control then a northern prison by the name of D.V.I. located in Tracey, California. It, prison, to me is not a very funny thing, people's loved ones are killed on a regular basis in California's prison system, mind you they are gangbangers, thugs and murders losing their lives, but never the less human life is being lost, and I witnessed more that my share of stabbings and killings.

The point I'm trying to make is. I learned my lesson by going to prison, by the way these were my charges:

In December of 1986, after a one year investigation by the Department of Justice, The B.N.E., Santa Clara and Santa Cruz Narcotics enforcement team, I went down on a $150,000 cocaine drug deal. At the time I was 20 years old, with two houses and every kind of sports car you could image. With the kind of money we, (my boss and his friends), were making we could of opened a porno company like Vivid, trust me if we knew how easy it would have been to go into porno with our money, I woudn't be an ex con now, I would be wealthy.

To make a really long story short, at age 21 I was facing 17 California felonies. Each California felony carries 16 months, 2 years or 3 years in prison, per felony, low term, mid term and a high, both the DA and the Judge determine how much time a person should serve on each felony depending on the inmate's records. In their eyes with that much coke, I looked liked a king pin. To make mattters worse for me it was an election year for the DA. If this sounds like a movie, its not! I'm a 21 year old male facing close to at least 19 years in state prison, and I didn't even murder anybody. It destroyed my life.

The DA offered me a deal, 14 years in prison, or I 'll take you to trial, if I would take the county through one millon dollar trial, and lose, they would sentence me to the fullest of their ablities, remember 16 months, 2 and 3 years times 17 felonies, people, do the math. What my lawyers suggested I do is go with a "Bench Trial", and what that is, I plead guilty to all 17 felonies, which included, substance for sales, possesion of cocaine, intent to distribute, pondage enhancement, conspirancy, weapons, yes we had guns, so would you if you were hanging on to several pounds of very expensive cocaine, felonies for crossing county lines even. Anyhow I plead guilty to everything, to the Judge, not the DA. The judge then reviews my case and determines what he thinks is fair. Santa Cruz Dist. Judge Thomas Black decided that 10 years was fair.

Off to D.V.I. Tracy, better know as "Gladiator school." This particular plac got this name because they sent all youthful, violent, gangmembers there and
trust me it was a bloodbath at times, and it was my home for a very long time. Lucky for white men in prison we don't have to deal with the gangbanging very often, but nevertheless both lots of hispanics and young black males were losing their lives. This is no bulls---, any ex con can tell you about D.V.I. My whole outlook was, "I wanted to be a big time drug dealer and I was. I got caught and it was time to pay."

Why all this cry baby s--- about me that happened about 10 years ago? Plain and simple.

Mike Albo recently wrote a story about how I introduced narcotics to an actress by the name of Leanna Heart. He continued to write that I got the little actress hooked on cocaine and apparently the young lady has or had a bad problem with it. The truth folks I had nothing to do with getting Leanna on drugs. I'm the last person who wants anything to do with cocaine. The sad thing is, Mike Albo knows about my prison conviction. He found out when he called the Beverly Hills police department in fear of his life, when I apparently left her a scary message. But the point is he knows I'm a convicted felon for cocaine yet he uses me in a article based on lies, lies that can get me in legal trouble, all so Mike Albo can satisfy his hatred of the adult industry.As far as I'm concerned, Mike can print all personal  attacks on me as he wants, like, the calling me gay and that all my prison homies had sex with me and that I'm the worst thing that could happen to Raylene... That stuff, I guess makes for good readership, but please pin drug related stuff on somebody else.

Heather Lyn talks about her role in "The Violation Of Jewel DeNyle": "I put a rubber dildo on the end of a US flag and f---ed the s--- out of Jewel DeNyle. I had her in the wingback chair and I was sitting on top of her in piledriver position, and I f---ed her to death. And for the last shot of the movie, we left the flag standing inside her."

Conceived in Florida, Heather was born in 1969 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania - Amish country. Her father in the Armed Forces, Lyn spent most of her childhood between Florida and South Carolina. She graduated high school in Georgia and then joined the Army for two years. I married a Marine, went to school to become an RN [Registered Nurse], got pregnant, and raised two kids (her son was born in 1994 and her daughter was born in 1997). After six-and-a-half years of marriage, Heather divorced in 1998 when her husband met a woman over the internet.

Lyn left Montana and moved to Arizona. She worked the door of a strip club. A friend introduced her to a porn photographer. Heather entered porno in the fall of 1999.

"This photographer asked me if I wanted to see what it [porn] was like, so we stopped at Jim South's office," remembers Heather. "Chaz signed me up and I worked that first day. I used to drive out here every week to work."

She paired up with Alec Metro from March of 2000 to the present.

"You're a whore," says Rob.

Heather: "I am not."

Rob: "You're a f---ing whore."

Heather: "I just love sex. And I can do what I want when I want."

Rob: "It's your body."

Heather: "And nobody looks at me and says, 'Oh my God, she's some crazy freak who wants to do that.' Because we're all freaks in this business."

Rob: "Not me."

Heather: "You especially.

"You know who I saw the other day? Shawna Edwards. She looks so different. I went to CES in January 2000 and sat next to her and she had really long straight hair. She looked so good. She's all tanned up. She's got really short hair with bleached tips. She went to Cosmetology school, she's been out of the business, and just came back."

Luke: "Is she with Jay Ashley?"

Heather: "No, Jay is with Aurora Snow."

Summer Storm walks by and Heather whistles and screams at her, "I'm going to get some of that."

Lyn turns to me: "She's got the sweetest ass. I met her in Jim South's office the very first time she came in."

Heather's appeared in about 100 porn movies. "I lost my organizer, which, as we all know, is our bible."

Most every porn girl I've known has had an organizer filled with photos and most importantly, the phone numbers of people in the business, particularly those who can offer them work.

Lyn sports a tight firm body with a flat stomach. She says she doesn't work out, but was simply blessed with good genes.

"Rob looks so different," says Heather. "He looks good, younger. I ran into him at Jim South's office and I didn't even know who he was. He started giving me s---, so I gave him s--- right back."

Luke: "Have you had any bad experiences in the industry?"

Heather: "No. I just take it as it comes. It's been said that I'm too businesslike. I'm older so I can't be all dingy and flighty and naive. I love work. I cater too for [porn] sets. Some people want only one hot meal, other people want three hot meals a day. I'm getting ready to cater for Jim Holliday."

Heather lost her virginity at age 13 and enthusiastically pursued sex during high school. "I was the only girl on the football team. I did one of my fellow football players in the f---ing bathroom in my high school right up the hall from my English class."

Rob: "You had a bad reputation."

Heather: "Not a bad reputation. I was comfortable with my sexuality. I grew up a tomboy and the guys were like, 'As many girls as we can tag, we're studs.' And if a girl did the same thing, we were sluts. You know what? I don't give a s---. I can be who I want to be. My mom taught us that we could do anything we wanted to do. I've done a lot of things. I didn't come straight into porn. I was a bookkeeper at a bank. I've run a polo club with 30 head of horses. I've raised two kids. I've worked in an emergency room. I love writing. I've started writing a couple of scripts."

Rob: "For porno? Porno don't need scripts."

Heather: "Just stories. I used to be an artist. I love to draw. But I love to cook. You know what I honestly want to do? I want to one, finish RN school, and two, become a photographer. Because I love composition and all that stuff. I'm anal retentive."

Rob: "Good girl. You should become a nurse, marry a doctor and live happily everafter."

Heather: "Why do I have to marry a doctor?"

Rob: "Because that's what they do."

Heather: "I am just going to have boytoys. I'm at my sexual peak. I need some 20-year old who can keep up. That or someone hung really well who takes a lot of Viagra.

"If I go a while without having sex, my testosterone and sexual appetite goes down. But when I start masturbating, it builds up again. For medical reasons, I didn't have sex for six weeks and I went nuts. But I masturbated anyway."

Rob: "You shove everything in there."

Heather develops a guttural roar in her throat: "On occasion, I get stuck doing a scene with a girl who's never done a girl before. And that's tough because I get loud and rough at times. I don't want to terrify them because they can't all be pretty Andrew Blake scenes.

"Gwen Summers talks the greatest trash. She's so soft spoken and really dainty. She's great."

Heather tells Alex Taylor: "The last time I saw you, I was shooting behind the scenes footage and this chick squirted off the couch and I got squirted."

Tell Truth writes: "Does anyone really give a f---a bout Heather Lyn and Alec Metro. it is a sick relationship amd they will be back together again. They are both nuts. Didnt Heather sit in Jail for a day because she whacked Alec with a frying pan. Didnt he actually try to get her out after he called the police. Doesnt that sound a little sick??? Maybe Heather caught Alec sniffing Summers feet and got Jealous he didnt stay loyal to her tootsies??? They both cheated and both hid the secret SOMETIMES, since we all know Alec loves to watch Heather f--- other men at their home as long as he watches??? Maybe her recent pregnancy and subsequent termination just made her lose her mind. Both of them are cokeheads and will soon be back together huffing lines soon."

Porn star Heather Lyn Writes

"Dear Luke, I normally would not do this but I figured with so many people in the industry logging on daily to hear the latest scoop, this would be the quickest way to let everybody hear me.

"Lately, I've been hanging out with Summer Storm, even getting her jobs. Since my break up with Alec Metro, and most recently this week, she has been "hiding out" at his house. I just want everybody to know how much of a liar she is and that as of 2 days ago, I wish to no longer be associated with her. She is a compulsive liar who has now made it impossible for Alec and I to ever be friends, even after the cool down from the break up.

"It is the ultimate betrayal to have somebody whom you thought you MIGHT be able to trust to go and do the things she's doing now, ESPECIALLY after all the help I gave her.

"As for Alec, he claims I have no friends in this business and that nobody really likes me. To that I say, yeah, I know their are people out there that don't like me for one reason or another and that's fine because you can't like everybody, but I've never done anything wrong to anybody in this business and do not deserve the rumor spreading that some have begun. If you have a question about something you've heard, ask ME.

"One more note before I go...I NEVER cheated on Alec regardless of what he or Summer says. During the periods we were separated (and there were alot) we were free to do what we wanted and when we made up I told him everything I did while apart. I know some of you are saying you could really give a rat's ass about this. However, there are those of you out there who I really like and want you to know the truth."

Heather Lyn's ex-boyfriend Alec Metro left these messages on Luke's answer machine:

"I appreciate what you've said Heather and it's true. People in this business will stab you in the back and that's why you should never trust anybody. And because you trusted people, it was a habit for you. I've warned you before that they will dethrone you. Now as a director and a producer, I can tell you that people will stand in line to screw you over. But when you commit crimes, you commit crimes alone.

"This will not ruin our friendship in the future. It will teach you a valuable lesson that you can't trust anybody. And until you learn that and understand that, you will never have any friends in this industry. Because it's a bloodsucking industry and it eats people up.

"I don't feel Summer ruined our relationship. We had our own problems. I'm sure it's very difficult to date somebody in my situation. I wouldn't because I've never dated a porn director, a porn star, with women calling all hours of the night seeking work. I'm sure it's very difficult.

"But everyone knows that when I am loyal in this business, I am loyal and when I cheat, I cheat. It's a small industry and we can all guess what each other ate when we fart. And as long as you understand that people talk, that people love misery, you will soon learn that if you want something to work in this industry you keep your mouth shut about everything. And you don't volunteer information and you don't brag about things you've done. Because there's always somebody waiting to kick you. Nobody wants to see you succeed.

"I've been in this industry for eight years now. Everybody knows that I've had everybody from Houston to Raylene to Hustler magazine kicking me. And I stand still. I started in 1993 and I am still at the top of my game. I'm a loyal person. I have integrity. And I have fun. And that's why I am still standing.

"Until you learn this basic theory, you'll be pummelled like the rest of them. Because the women come and go and the men stay. And the men stay for one reason - because we don't brag about our feats.

"Don't trust anybody. As people know, I lost five years of my life to prison. Because a good friend of mine couldn't hold his bud [marijuana] and set me up with drug agents. I lost a lot more than just a friend. I lost a major family. Most people know that my dad's side of the family owns a multi-million dollar furniture chain in the South called Claibourne Interiors which I am no longer a part of. Anytime I call that store, they hang up on me.

"So I do adult video. I'm a survivor. My biggest mistake was, just like you, I was helping a friend go through college, when I was a drug dealer. We're all from a rich family and I became a drug dealer because I wanted quick money fast. And my other friend wanted quick money fast too. And he got popped and he didn't want to do time. And I did. And I lost a family fortune because of it. I will never see a dime of that money until my father dies. And chances are, in Louisiana, because of the way the laws are, I will never see it. That's a lesson well learn by myself.

"You possibly lost a friend. You still have my respect. I never cheated on you. And it's all true. Anytime Heather or I broke up, whatever occurred with other partners was because we had broken up.

"You can't trust anybody. I am the classic example of that. For some reason or another, people will screw you. It's within our nature. We want to survive and it's all about the survival of the fittest. That's why there's a food chain and it's important to stay on top of the food chain."

Heather Lyn responds: I appreciate your advice. I don't however like how condescending you are. You think men are the best thing in this business. Yes, it's true, women are a dime a dozen here, but we are primary to the success of this business. I may not have big tits but my energy more than makes up for it! It was difficult being your girlfriend but less from the girls calling for work and more from BOTH of our stubbornness and jealousies (YES you got jealous too).

I never said our break up was because of Summer. That's all on us. I only claimed her a liar and user who betrayed me. As to your not cheating, I laugh. I have the very letter in which you claim me to be a skank and how I'll never work in this industry again, then account each time you cheated on me and even how one of them looked. You even bought one of them a $300 ring, so you wrote. Well, I hope you enjoyed it.

As I know you have no conscience, this may not bother, but at least I can leave you saying I never cheated on you. I never used you. I never NEEDED you. I CHOSE you. Period. You claimed to not believe a word she says, yet now you do. Too bad. You say others have told you things different from what I told you (at Nakita Cash's) and say to you, it doesn't matter what I say because you have it set in your mind now. I do say to the people(girls) that for some reason want to ruin things for me, Karma is a bitch and will come back to haunt you!! If you want him that f***ing bad, help yourself, but quit screwing with MY happiness!

Luke says: I spoke to Alec Metro Sunday evening.

Alec: "End of game. Too much information. It's getting ugly."

Luke: "What else are you doing these days?"

Alec: "I'm doing Alec Metro's Sexcess for Vivid TV, now owned by Playboy. It's a series based on my life. If me and Dale Dabone owned a multi-million dollar porn company and its inner goings on. Since I know the chemistry of everybody, I write it with all of our quirks. I shoot it slick European-style on Betacam. Everybody's dressed to the hilt. All the locations are fancy and beautiful.

"And Sexcess is based upon a porn company. We get to shoot porn movies within the movie. I can make you think something's happening but you're actually on a porn set. The whole conversation you've just watched was only a porn scene. I use big things like Westerns to make it come across in big shots. One minute we're talking about a script, and then we're back in the boardroom.

"It is produced by New Century Cinema and Studio 5533. We're on our third edition. It stars Ava Vincent, Heather Lyn, Bella Donna, Shay Sights, Adajja, Anika, Sky Taylor, Steven St. Croix, Jason McCain, Shane Collins. Its got the feeling of Joe Hunt's 1980s Billionaire's Boys Club. I'm going down this dangerous road and these guys are following me. I go directly to the Mob for the giant budget for a movie. I'm unconcerned with everybody's safety and welfare.

"It has comedy. Heather plays my girlfriend who's always mad and comes storming into the boardroom.

"It's hard to be a porn director's girlfriend because I am very focused on my career. I've been waiting to be in this spot for a long time. I've been in this industry since 1993 and I've waited for the right deals. And they're in place now. And it's simply going to take time away from people. It took time away from Heather. Yes, I am selfish in some ways and now that I'm really focused on a directing career, I'm going to be really selfish. I don't think anybody should be with me. I never have. I don't think this is the business for a relationship of that intensity.

"As a male porn star, having to focus sexually on other people just takes it away from home. There are only a couple of us in this industry, and I'm not one of them, who can f--k all day at home and f--k all day on the set. I got into this industry to shorttail my producer - director career, to get hands on, instead of pounding Hollywood agents for it.

"I wanted to be an actor, in whatever medium I could be. I wanted my stuff laid down early in life so I could look back at myself, whether it was pornography or whatever... I usually shot highend pornography so that when I look back, at least it was somewhat of a movie. I didn't want to wait for Hollywood to finally figure me out. Maybe it never would've and I would've never put anything on film.

"This way I'm doing something that I've always wanted to do - look through the eye of the camera and create images for other people.

"As far as Summer Storm, that's a Billy Glyde situation in this house. A friend hanging out. I have no interest in the young lady. She has no interest in screwing anything up because that would just make me mad. This house has always been a place for people to hang out.

"My first porn star girlfriend was J.R. Carrington and then Jordan St. James, a really crazy girl. Then I got into a longterm relationship with Houston, followed less than a week later by Raylene and then Heather Lyn. I think that's a pretty good record even for normal people for three years.

"As far as dating another porn star, I'm crazy like that. I don't know. I just let life take me where it does. I'm essentially waiting to march in to Louisiana, get an attorney and freeze all the assets when my father dies. And that's one of the reasons why I do porn too. I'm just waiting for my father to pass away. He stole an inheritance from me and sunk it into a multi-million dollar furniture company. And I'm biding my time. I do want to be a movie maker.

"When he goes, I will be more of a huge producer. And I will own the store.

"I'm the easy money guy. I'll admit that. I thought that after high school, everything should be handed to me. I was wrong. I did scandalous things and made large drug deals to purchase cars and homes. And then after my stint with the big house [five years in prison], I came into porn after other work for a year.

"Penthouse was the first thing offered to me as a male dancer to do a boy-girl. And I fell in love with the concept of it. I'd been pounding the Hollywood streets for a year after prison and was getting nowhere. It's like trying to hit the lottery. I was at my optimum wait at age 25 and there were guys who intimidated me.

"When Penthouse came up, I said, hey, it's a form of media. I will be naked in this media. But I've been devious since I can remember. I started sex at age 12. We had homes in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico during the 1970s. I ended up with a lot of sophisticated older women from LA and Canada. I got a nice training. It was a time of free love, disco... I was raised amongst that with a disco dancing sister and a disco dancing mom and a crazy lifestyle.

"I'm following a crazy lifestyle. I never expected it. I'm just looking for things until my, I don't want to say scum-father, it's kinda rude... But thief, and he knows he is and I hope he reads this, but I'm just biding my time until I get that company. I'll probably liquidate it. Drug diversion videos are where I'm headed next. My next two videos after pornography, one will be a new drunken driving video for all counties to see. The next one will be an expose on Ecstasy. My brother-in-law in Oxnard, California, distributes drug distribution videos. I'm not even going to tell people how much these videos cost, but if they're bought by the government, you can understand how much they cost.

"Say you get caught and the judge sends you to anger management or whatever class, you'll have to watch one of these videos. And there hasn't been one recently done in a long time. A low end tape is worth $200. Some of the high end tapes, like my drunk driving tape, will cost $800 per tape, sold nationwide. Nobody knows about this. The market is such cornball, and they need new stuff, and my brother-in-law is president of a company out of Oxnard, and that's all they do. And my mother is the director for the council on alcohol abuse for all of Santa Barbara county. She's like a judge.

"So, we're well connected into the anti-drug era, which is funny for me. But my mom is a drug counselor now because at the age I am now, she was experimenting too.

"I don't volunteer information about myself. This is the first time I've spoken to this site in five years, aside from the Hustler thing. I missed the whole Raylene thing. I didn't want to deal with it. Raylene threw me in front of Hustler and I didn't retaliate to that. I never do. I don't know why people want to discuss my private life with everybody. Especially in full detail about a letter I wrote... Of course the letter is going to say angry things. It's called a break-up. I've never seen anybody get a love letter during a break-up. These letters intend to be hurtful. They're meant to remind people of the mistakes they did. They're meant to sever ties. And the only way to sever ties in a relationship is complete abstinence.

"No letters, no phone calls. Not letting 50 million people read your letter either. The less contact, the better.

"Every single one of these women is now a friend. To every woman, I made it extremely clear - I can't be controlled. I play a submissive game. But if you can't figure out that I am really not a submissive, then you are not bright enough. I am a dominant. And I am in career where I am not turning around. I am 35 years old and I don't want to go anywhere else. I'm just waiting for the jerk to pass away and then it is on from there."

Luke: "How long since you've spoken to your father?"

Alec: "Since I was 18. I'd asked for a business loan through my grandmother and he turned it down because he thought I was too young. So I tried fire fighting for a while. I was accustomed to the nice life. I grew up in a beautiful beach home in Puerto Vallarta and hung out with the Fondas. An Aries male will do whatever he needs to do to live a nice life. Fire fighting was rewarding in the hero aspect of it, but financially it wasn't reaching it for me. I had to work two years of overtime to get the lifestyle I wanted. Psychologically, fire fighting was bad too because of dead children. So I went into drug dealing.

"And I didn't go into the small drug dealing. I knew two major people. I hooked them up right in the middle. Back in the 1980s, a kilo of cocaine was $40,000. And I was getting it for $35,000 and selling further south for almost $44,000. I was making serious money and playing with serious players.

"By the way, Ronald Tomminelli, if you read this. Or if anyone who knows you reads this. Alec Metro is Brendon Claibourn. I don't care. I'm not going to be a senator and my parents can kiss my ass anyways, except for my mom. If you're out there, find me."

Luke: "Who is he?"

Alec: "He was my main guy, when I was a drug dealer. We were really good friends and he was a way cool dude. When I got popped, he gave me the choice of rolling over. And I chose not to. The man made me. He later got locked up but I got the most time.

"The Aries man is going to live good, no matter what. It's no secret that adult is the easy way out. It's easy for a man. I will focus on my career. I'm sorry ladies, but every woman makes the same mistake [doing porn]. It's all glamorous and cool and fun in the beginning, and everybody thinks they can handle it, and the bottom line is that it is hard to handle.

"I didn't get into the industry through a girl. I got in through Penthouse. I've always been the provider in the relationship, or at least met someone half way. Obviously big giants like Raylene, Houston and Jordan St. James, I couldn't match their incomes then. Yes, a lot of money was spent and money was thrown at me. These women would come home with large amounts of cash, and want to run to Mexico or buy guns or whatever...

"I offer three basic things - security, a home, and security in the business. And I've never threatened anybody that I'd stop their career. A lot of times, if somebody calls me for a role on a production that will also star an ex-girlfriend, they will ask me, I usually ask them to take the girl first. For some reason, she [Heather Lyn?] always thinks that I'm going to try to stop her career.

"This is the most I've talked about my relationships in my entire porn career.

"Everybody knows that I am not a mechanical star but I use my true things that get me off. And so women get upset with, what's in the bedroom and what's on the stage? Well, it's for everybody.

"Once women get to know me, they see that I am using my mental process to make myself horny on a set. And in the bedroom. Instead of being a mechanical performer with Viagra.

"When women get involved with you, they see the mental things you use on stage. And I guess it hurts their feelings. But I need to do that to give a good scene. And trust me, you don't want a boyfriend who can't get wood, because then you look really stupid. And a lot of women start getting hurt by the foot fetish thing. And the foot fetish thing saved my career. After the novelty of the new car wore off, I was getting bored of porn. Then I remembered my foot fetish and I implemented my foot fetish and that has saved wood problems.

"When women get attached to me, they ask me not to do the foot thing and I have to say, that's the most appalling thing you could tell me. Because that's what I've based my whole career on. You can't change somebody's sexual interests. You can't know what it takes to get a boner on stage if you don't have a dick. No girl will ever know.

"I have a lot more to offer a girl than just f--king. Obviously f--king means nothing to a person if they're in this business. It's money. I've yet to get a free scene from anybody. No girl has ever come up to me and said, 'Hey Alec, I want to do a scene for you. It's on the house. I'm horny.'

"As long as you're earning your income off sex, expect tired people. Girls are tired too. I've been turned down at home because she's tired. And I understand.

"The plumber doesn't go home and start fixing the sink. Heather, I wrote that letter fast because you were on your way over to pick up the mail. I wanted to end this relationship because it's not going anywhere. I'm stingy, I admit that.

"You always look like a chump when you air your dirty laundry and for some reason, you get back together. People like to see the drama and hurt in lives. It sells better than love. Misery loves company. When a sad person sees a happy person, they don't like that. In this business, unfortunately, we have some unhappy people. We've made choices that have made us unhappier and then they get on the drugs... With all the bipolar personalities in porn, and the ADDs (Attention Deficit Disorder), these people should take proper medication.

"If I were a woman, I would not be in pornography. It's hard for a woman. If you're smart, and invest your money right, you might walk away with something good.

"I'm in it [porn] for good until that furniture thing kicks in. I'll probably liquidate that and sink it into porn, because it is what I know.

"Girls get hurt and they start... I don't know. I can't think like a girl. But when they see you having sex with other people, it's a mental thing for them while it's nothing for our penises. Porn relationships are hard."

Heather Lyn responds: To whomever you are, Who do you think you are? Why don't you tell me who you are? Who are you to talk about our relationship? Alec and I are not nuts! When you love somebody or think you do, you do things that seem weird to others. I never hit him with that frying pan. He called the police and in the state of California, somebody automatically goes to jail when called. There was no proof I hit him and he tried to tell them that as they were taking me away. That's why he tried to get me out of jail. So what? What do you care? And no, we will not be getting back together. If we someday can be friends that's our decision. We never hurt anybody in the process. As far as the termination of my pregnancy goes, f--- YOU ASSHOLE! It was a very hard decision for us to make and until you have to do it, especially as a woman, don't talk s--- about it! It was Alec's baby, not from work or play with others, and we did what we thought was best. Who the hell are you to call us cokeheads? Have you been to our home and partied with us? If so, then you are one too. If not, then how can you speak about something you haven't seen? I won't say that we've never partied, but who doesn't? As long as we get our work done and don't bother others then why the hell not?? Let's see if you have the balls to tell me who you are. Write me back or, since you seem to know me so well, call me.

Luke says: I spoke to Heather Lyn Monday afternoon.

Heather: "I never hit Brendon with a pan. It was just a threat. In the state of California, when the police are called, it's an automatic arrest. As for the termination of my pregnancy, it was Alec's. We wanted it but it just wasn't a good time to have it.

"Alec and I are not getting back together. We did talk civilly on the phone last night. But as far as coke heads go, if we party every once in a while, that's nobody's f--king business. Everybody in the business does it.

"I don't hide anything I do. Somebody asked me the other day and I straight up told them."

Luke: "So did Alec call the police on you?"

Heather: "Oh yeah, I was handcuffed in the house. They never told me I was under arrest and they never read me my rights. I sat in a holding cell off of Van Nuys Blvd for 45 minutes before they ever read me my rights. Then a three hour in-processing at the big station off Van Nuys Blvd in Sherman Oaks.

"It was in October. I was getting ready to cater a VCA shoot. We were fighting. He was screaming in my face and I wanted him out of my face. I came to grab my dishes to go to work. I held a pot up in the air but I never hit him.

"Neither one of us give up easily. We're strong and we fight for whatever we believe in.

"I'm starting to go out more and meet new people, people who have nothing to do with this business. Which is really nice."

Luke: "How long do you plan to stay in the video business?"

Heather: "As long as I have work. I do catering too. I told you that I've done a lot of things in my life, it's not like this is my only skill. I'm getting in shape and changing my hair color. I feel good about myself."

Luke: "Alec thinks it is a mistake for any woman to enter this industry."

Heather: "He would. He's a guy.

"My first rule when I got in [to porn] was not to date anybody, period. When I met him, I dropped that rule."

Luke: "It's hard for us guys to understand why any woman would enter this industry?"

Heather: "For the same reasons why a guy would."

Luke: "Guys just want sex."

Heather: "There are plenty of girls that just want sex. And everyone wants a paycheck.

"Girls get contracts and are known throughout. Some crossover to mainstream stuff. Others become directors, producers, photographers.

"Summer stayed at my place. When she was sick, I held her head all night long, even though I had to work the next day, all day long.

"I never asked him [Metro] to not do his foot fetish thing at work. I've been on many of his sets to support him through that. And I've done things to get him through scenes."

Kevin Korey writes: Concerning "Tell Truth" comments about Alec and Heather and their relationship. Both Heather and Alec are good people......this is a hard business to deal with both professionally and personally, everyone is in each others personal lives and sometimes we just are not sure how to handle it. We live in a glass house, don't throw stones! None of us received the "How to be a Porn Star/ Boyfriend / Girlfriend/ Producer/ Director" hand book. To even bring something up publicly like her "pregnancy and subsequent termination" is just plain rude and disgusting.....let them deal with this in the manner that they feel fit and stay out of it. I am sure this was NOT an invitation to the cyberworld to chime in and try to hurt them. This is the type of s--- that is killing this business........it's time to grow up and treat this industry as a business and stop the childish games that seem to resonate from every direction you turn......trust me, if we (the adult industry) don't stick together.....we are all done.

MikeSouth.com writes: "Luke, kindly tell Heather Lyn NOT to speak for me. Everyone in this business does NOT do drugs, I don't, unless you count caffeine and an occasional cigarette (not the left handed variety). It really pisses me off when these morons get busted using drugs and attempt to explain it away by saying "hey, everyone in this biz does it." I can tell you LOTS of people in this biz who don't. If you have to be f---ed up to be in this biz you have NO business being in this biz."

Brandy Alexandre writes: "I agree with Mike South. I don't do drugs either, didn't then, don't now. She needs to keep her self-justifications in her own backyard where the correct phraseology may be everyone SHE KNOWS and hangs out with does drugs. People don't like to think they're alone in their little groupings and like to say "everybody." But like cheating on taxes, lying on resumes and keeping the extra when a cashier gives too much change, "everyone" does not do it. It's just the sorts of people you keep company with and it does not make it okay."

Tell Truth writes: HEY HEATHER just by looking at your email I can only see a mental breakdown in the works here. I may have been to your house and I may not . It doesnt really matter other than the fact that you are a cokehead and a heavy drug user. I know several people who have doen them with you alone. maybe even myself included. I am not an asshole but rather someone who isnt interested in readng about the drama that goes on between you and your man. At what point did i say I cared , only to have to read about some girl Summer and how she hid somewhere. Who gives a s---??? ANyone in the business really care about your ex friend hangin out over Alec's house. She is probably a cokehead too and that was motivation. I am not interested in your life only to point out that noone else is either. I dont care if you whacked him or didnt whack him with a pan , only that he called the cops so you must have been having a psycho episode just like now when you replied to my comments. I dont really give a s--- about your pathetic over the hill and over 30 and growing older by the minute life, only that you attempt to bore us with stories of your unnatural relationship. Nice to see you can afford a computer , maybe living with Alec still is saving you money.

Alec Metro Faces His Detractors
2003-06-26 18:56:28

It's stinkin' hot, about 100 degrees in the Valley, when I drive up to the Canoga Park studio at 11:30AM.

A tattooed photographer, Ben Hoffman, tells me: "You want a story? Apparently Alec Metro is going to be here today. Alec burned me, Ron Vogel, Jace Rocker, James...for $7000. He bounced $1300 worth of checks to me on Christmas Eve."

Cronin, cameraman: "And he laughs about it."

Ben aka Vic Alpine: "We're still trying to recover our money."

Luke: "Do you appreciate his sense of humor?"

Ben: "NO. If this were the old West and I could get away with it, I'd hurt him. But this is modern times and I'd go to jail.

"If he shows up today, wearing some faggy pink outfit..."

DUC to Aria: "Are you looking forward to your scene?"

Aria: "I always look forward to fresh meat. Apparently I get to beat him today."

In the Spring of 2001, Alec Metro was on top of the world. He had contracts to shoot loads of video for big companies like Pleasure and Vivid. He had his own production company. The money was rolling in. Then he developed a drug problem, got taken by a con artist, spiraled downwards into methamphetamine abuse, was unable to pay his bills, and wasted a year of his life in a drugged-haze.

Aria: "He wants me to beat him up. He wants me to kick and clock upside the head."

Ben: "He's a bad person."

Cronin: "The money he owed made it so Jace Rocker couldn't make his house payment."

Ben: "He bounced $2400 worth of checks. [Jace] came back from vacation and his bank account was a total disaster and he couldn't make his house payments. Oh, and it was a big joke to [Alec Metro] that this happened."

Cronin: "He laughs about it. He's got a new Bronco."

This does not sound like the Alec Metro I knew who always told me straight up and honestly what was going on. He told me how he was arrested for drug dealing, and because he wouldn't snitch, he did about nine years in prison.

I know Jace Rocker too. He's a good guy.

Ben: "Nicest guy in the world.

"Not that everybody in the business doesn't know about it but it is nice that everybody gets reminded of it once in a while."

I run into Dynamite's husband Gary. They've lived in Colorado since January. Dynamite had a live-in boyfriend for over three months.

Gary: "I was fine with it as long as they kept things honest and everything was above board. But when it changed directions, it was time for him to go. He's gone now. She dances at a local club regularly.

"She's grown up through the industry. If you look at pictures of when she first came in, she looked like a little girl, perfect Max Hardcore material. Now she's a full grown woman, even though she's only 4'10. You can see that she's grown up. Her scenes reflect it. She enjoys it more. As she goes on, it seems to get better for her."

Alec Metro walks in. He wears a cross and has to be reminded by Aria to take it off before doing his scene.

Aria to Luke: "I love it when you show up on sets. Controversy just oozes from everybody. Everyone cringes or, 'Oh boy, do I have something to tell you today!'"

DUC to Rob Spallone: "I heard you had a lot of bad things happen yesterday?"

Rob: "We started off with the first girl (Brooke Lane) four hours late."

Brooke is a beautiful blonde Penthouse Pet who had a problem with alcohol.

Rob: "Then we had a girl (Lee Stone's GF) who didn't feel good and had to go home. Then Lee got in an accident."

Luke: "That was inconsiderate of him."

Rob: "I was thinking the same thing. But we had three good sex scenes yesterday."

Rob orders a ton of bikers for 7PM, including some Hells Angels. Joey Buttafucco and his brother Bruce are expected to come and play cops.

Ronald Anthony Bolino stops by. A former heavyweight boxer, he used to collect money. He's like the Chili Palmer - John Travolta character in Get Shorty.

Ron gives Rob his final paperwork on his new house. Ron does not appreciate my last write-up of him. Rob persuades Ron not to kill me.

Joey and Bruce don't want to play cops.

Rob: "You'll do it for Snoop Doggy Dog but you won't do it for me?"

Rob says Joey did a nice job at his body shop this morning helping a girl, Kimberly, who got in an accident.

Rob: "Kimberly is a friend of mine."

Luke: "Is she a friend of ours."

Rob: "No."

Ron: "Watch that stuff. I want to stay far away from all that stuff."

Rob: "I'm shooting Sopornos 5&6 next month at a boxing gym."

Ron has been married 29 years.

Rob, married 15-years: "She don't like him. Just like Helena.

"They didn't think I'd live past 15."

Ron: "Me too."

Rob: "If you are home watching television in the dark and your television starts to levitate, what do you say?"

Luke: "Holy hell?"

Rob: "Nigger, put that TV down."

Luke: "How come black people can use the n-word with each other but we white people can't use it?"

Rob: "I don't know. I don't get that."

12:20PM: Inside, Aria twists the collar around Alec's throat until he almost passes out. They take a water break.

Rob's too tired and hot for me to bait. It's disappointing. I struggle to find interesting material.

I ask Dan, the make-up artist, how he should be made up.

Dan: "To look more like a woman or more like a man?"

Luke: "More like a man."

Dan: "Like for a soap opera?"

Luke: "Yeah."

Dan recommends straightening and diminishing his eyebrows, which he's already done in part. He'd use stuff on Rob's skin to stop it looking red and dark.

Rob makes up a ditty: "Dan, Dan, the make-up man, makes up faces as fast as he can."

Rob gets Dan to dial Red Velvet's phone number. She's living with her boyfriend in a place Rob found.

Alec Metro's chest is covered with red welts from Aria's scratches.

Aria: "I managed to get a ride from Larry Flynt's birthday party to the Barfly in the back of a cop car, handcuffed, half-naked, just for the hell of it.

"I did a U-turn on Sunset Blvd. The cop pulled me over and said, 'Where are you going?' Then he looked at us and said, 'I know you and you and you.' Keri Windsor and Kaylynn were in the car.

"So we invited them to Larry Flynt's birthday party. They came and gave us a ride back to the Barfly."

Alec Metro has put in a number on his cell phone and he asks me to click it on to call when they begin the anal. "Payback's a bitch," says Alec.

I sit down with Alec Metro.

Alec: "So why don't you ask me, is it true that drug addiction f---ed up your directing career?"

DUC repeats the question.

Alec: "I could say yes or no. I was in control of the addiction. As far as not paying attention to what was happening in the business world, to my company Surf n'Sand, yes, drug addiction had a lot to do with my not paying attention to the finances and what was going on in the company.

"The drug spin was working out as far as being a creative writer and getting the stuff going.

"I had a one-year spin on drug, from June 2001 to June 2002."

Alec and I are sitting in a room alone but I can tell there's a crowd of people listening to us outside the door.

Alec: "Shooting schedules were being met. Everything was fine. I had a contract with Pleasure Productions. I had Lisa Schmidt selling my cable stuff and constantly finding me investors. I was turning down investors.

"As soon as I signed the Pleasure contract, I met up with a gentleman through Lisa Schmidt named Phillip Star. I now believe that is an alias. He claimed to be an IRS attorney from New Orleans, Lousianna.

"I chose this gentleman because my father lives in New Orleans, Louisiana, and as a younger adult, stole my inheritance from my grandmother. I want to pay him back for that.

"The deal was going to be, two pictures a month sold to Playboy for X amount of dollars, along with my Peasure contract and another contract.

"A couple things he said to me were peculiar. He claimed to be a super-wealthy guy with houses here and there. Yet he was renting a room in Encino and he drove a 1989 Saab convertible and had horrible hair pieces. I still didn't clue on because he had an intellectual and strong presence. He felt like an IRS attorney so I discounted it.

"The day of the shoot, I show up. The lighting crew is setting up (John Carady). The camera operators were Kelly Holland and Jake Jacobs. Two female make-up artists. The equipment is Kenny Hurt's.

"Two hours into the set-up, the investor Phillip Star decides to stop by the set. As he walks through the set with a couple of his own investors, Kenny Hurt and Kelly Holland approach me. They say, 'If that is your investor, that guy took us for a certain amount last year.'

"I took the investor, Phillip Star, outside and profiled him. He did all the classics of lying - his eyes started to dart, he couldn't look at me, he got nervous, he looked at the ground, his mouth was drying up.

"We get Francois Clouseau from VCA on the phone who backs up what Phillip said - that the crew would get paid when the movie sold. I heard the movie had already sold to cable but nobody got paid. Francois had heard that the video had sold but he knew that Playboy could wait up to 90-days after airing before paying.

"The crew was packing up because they wouldn't work for Phillip Star. Phillip says, 'Let them walk.' There's a problem with that. I have to pay the kill fees.

"I tell him to wire the $30,000 into my account.

"I have a group meeting with everybody. They all said to me, 'Alec, we trust your judgment on this. Whatever you think is best.' We take a one-hour lunch break.

"Within 15-minutes, he hands me his cell phone and a guy with a Louisianna accent, 'Hi, I am so and so from so and so bank of commerce. I'm asking for permission to wire in $30,000 to your account.' I say, 'Permission granted.' I figure the money is in the account.

"We shoot for two days. They have me rip off my own series for Vivid TV called Alec Metro's Success. It was me and Dale DaBone owning our own porno company and f---ing all the chicks. Playboy and Vivid were going psychotic over the series, offering me ten picture deals upfront for it.

"I rip it off for the lawyer. I do two of them. Great sex. Exotic cars, Ferraris, the whole nine yards.

"On the day off from my Pleasure shoot, I meet up with Phillip Star. He takes the masters and the stills and takes off to New Orleans.

"The production for Pleasure is an expensive one - a $40,000 feature. I have hospital, ambulances, crew, 20 Hollywood extras, the boiler room to Freddy Krueger's nightmares... I'm cutting checks left and right.

"At the end of the shoot, I go down to the bank and cut myself a check for $1000. It bounces. I can't believe it. Usually crew waits three or four days before they submit their checks. Talent is quick to run down to the bank to cash their checks.

"I had a mental picture of at least $20,000 in the account, with Phillip's $30,000 and Pleasure's $40,000 and my own $10,000. The bank tells me I am $15,000 in the hole.

"What do I do? Do I sit there and call my bank and get paperwork? No. I go to my drug addiction. I lock the house down...in that big 3000-square foot home on Wilbur, with my current girlfriend, one of the lead actresses in my movie. We hit the drugs."

Alec speaks like he needs to get this all out on the table. Lucky for me, Alec and I have always had a good relationship, so I'm pleased to be able to tell his story.

Luke: "What kind of drugs?"

Alec: "Methamphetamine.

"We're three weeks out from CES. Pleasure hasn't found out yet but checks from the Pleasure shoot are bouncing. The phone is ringing off the hook. I've set up a surveillance system so that I can watch people come by and flip me off. I'm sitting there tripping out.

"My next budget was tentatively Hustler. I was looking forward to that. They are huge. I thought their big budget would save me.

"As time goes on, people found out about what happened. My deals dried up.

"CES hits. I am supposed to represent Pleasure at the booth, bring a group of girls and head up their signing team. I don't show. The Pleasure booth becomes a complaint booth. People are lining up to trash me.

"I have Frank [Koretsky] calling me from Pleasure, screaming at me. 'Alec, we gave you $40k to shoot the movie. Why are you overbudget? Why are people suing us?' I tell him that I will fix it.

"Nevertheless, career down the toilet. Three months later, I'm spinning out of control. I have enough money in my personal account to survive. I survive at the Wilbur house until I can't anymore. I downsize to a condo at the Summit. Four months at the Woodland Hills summit, I get evicted out of there."

Luke: "Were you working as a performer at this time?"

Alec: "I was doing some performing but I was so under drugs. I didn't want to go outside. My seratonin level was in the basement from the drug abuse. If I wasn't high, I was completely depressed or asleep. I go from pills (like Xanax, pain killers, anti-depressants) to speed, pills to speed.

"I don't know how I was supporting myself. I think I was dating a big time drug dealer and she would make me good deals on s---, and I'd sell that and do whatever I could to survive. I'd do a few scenes and that would be enough for half the rent.

"Finally, as most people know, my Mom is the director for drug and alcohol abuse of Santa Barbara County. I call her up and tell her the truth. She's smart. She said, 'I was waiting for you to tell me that.'

"The deal with her was 90-days at home or one year in rehab at a Phoenix House in Northern California. I did 90-days at home. She cleaned me up quick with in-home piss testing. I get back out into the world. I live on the beach with a good friend of mine.

"I look through all my bank statements. I decide, it's time for me to get up and when I do a scene, pay a crew member 20% every time I see him... I gotta do it. I still think I'm responsible. Phillip Star had never deposited any money. Therefore, I started spending Pleasure's money and was $15,000 in the hole.

"It's ironic because Frank knew something about this guy Phillip Star. Frank asked me on the phone, 'Did you shoot that lawyer's movie with our money?' At the time, I defended the guy.

"Two other companies in the industry caught Phillip Star in a similar scam. He's being prosecuted under criminal law for stealing. As soon as there is a trial and the evidence is brought forward, I won't have to do much of the legwork. Then I'll do my lawsuit and start all over again."

Rob Spallone walks in: "He's taping this."

Alec: "I know."

Ben Hoffman walks in. He's steaming mad. It feels like a scene from a movie.

Ben: "This is fascinating listening to this whole story. Why didn't you contact any of us?"

Alec: "I didn't..."

Ben: "You know what?"

Alec: "Did you hear the story?"

Ben: "Yeah, I've been listening. I've been f---ing around with this for about 16-months."

Alec: "Hey, hey, hey. Wait, wait."

Ben barrels on: "No. No, I'm not going to f---ing wait. The second you walked in, I wanted to push your f---ing face into a wall."

Alec: "Why don't you do it? Why don't you do it? Why don't you do it? Why don't you f---ing do it?"

Alec leaps from his chair and gets in Ben's face.

Ben: "Because I'm not going to do it."

Alec and Ben are both almost hysterical and almost in tears they are so angry and upset.

Alec: "Why don't you f---ing do it? Don't f---ing say it if you are not going to do it? A year I spent on f---ing drugs dealing with this situation too, asshole. Then I spent three months in rehab."

Ben: "Why didn't you just call and apologize?"

Alec: "Because I didn't know the situation. I didn't come here to explain the situation. That's why I'm doing the interview, so morons like you can read it. Now do you mind and step out before I get pissed."

Ben: "I'm the moron?"

Alec: "Listen, you heard the f---ing story. Step out before I get pissed."

Ben: "You should have told us. There's only seven of us. That's all I'm saying. There could've been a call a month ago, a week ago, anything. If I had just known, I would've been like, 'Ok, I can deal with that.'

"Just imagine me Christmas Eve, $1400 bounces."

Alec: "I was on drugs, dealing with it. Trust me. I lost a lot."

Ben: "I hear that now."

Alec: "I lost a $100,000 month account and now I'm back to doing talent at $500 a scene."

Alec's voice breaks and he's about to cry. "I don't need to hear about last year's Christmas."

Alec sighs. "I think I've suffered enough."

Ben: "You may want to let people know."

Alec: "That's why I am doing interviews. I can't run around telling people anything."

Ben: "It's only seven people."

Alec writhes in pain on his chair. "The whole thing is to do the interview and then to track the people down.

"I don't mind explaining things to people but I need to wait for a court date... You can talk about it but there's no proof. If I have a US government paper saying we're indicting the guy, it's just more credible.

"I think most people do know. When I went to the show this year, for the first time coming out of my drug rehab, everybody said the same thing you [DUC] did, 'We heard something. We want to hear your version.'

"I told them my version and they said, 'That's what we thought.' Enough people know that I am in the clear but there are still enough who want to kick me down because when I was up cruising, it was making a lot of people nervous. I can shoot a whole entire feature and be wrapped by 10PM. Two camera crews, no waiting, every day of the week.

"I'd like to tell any party who thinks I've done them wrong to approach me personally. I am out here on the sets again. I will gladly discuss what happened. Don't threaten me. Don't tell me you are going to push my face into a wall and don't deliver. All that will get you is an ass-whipping. Ask me nicely what happened. I will gladly tell you and where the guy lives. I don't take kindly to threats. I only play a bitch on TV."

3:10PM: Rob stands out in the hot sun with several guys and photographer Roxy from Armenia. Rob yells at Alec, "Bring me a chair."

Alec is emotional and tired and worn down. He flips Rob off. Everyone laughs.

A minute later, we're all surprised when a chair is placed outside the door by Alec.

......................................

Stevi, the busty beautiful brunette with long hair down to her waist, walks in after noon. She says she's been out of the industry for two years and has just come back. She doesn't want boxcovers. She doesn't want the notoriety, not that she can do much about it now.

Stevi negotiates a price for the services of Dan, the make-up artist, to make-up six porn girls before a shoot. Dan says $600.

Stevi walked into Jim South's office on October 25, 2000, and shot regularly from then until December 28, and then irregularly for next six months. She called me once to complain about Ona Zee bouncing checks.

"I shot strictly gonzo coming in. I didn't want box. I didn't want any notoriety. Then the next thing I know I am all over Playboy, Spice, on boxcovers everywhere, recognized. I think, oh God, this will destroy me."

Strange to hear a smart girl saying she wanted to do pornography - both movies and layouts - but didn't want any notoriety. That's impossible. Porn is about the most notorious thing you can do.

Stevi tells me about all her medic certificates.

Luke: "When you deal with dying people as a medic, do they ever say, 'Hey, I saw you on Spice.'"

Stevi: "No because I don't do that now. I'd have to go to a small town."

Luke: "When did you quit working as a medic?"

Stevi: "Right after I got into [porn]."

Luke: "What have you done the past two years?"

Stevi: "Invested wisely and traveled.

"I went in to a fire station to volunteer and the firemen said, 'Oh we know you. Come on in. We're having lunch. Sit and stay.'

"I say, I'm serious, can I volunteer? They say, 'We're not going to have any problem with it at all. You can come here anytime you want, but you have to go through the bosses.' Because nobody is going to take you serious.

"Let's say you show up on the scene of a heart attack. And you're walking in, and granted the guy will be incapacitated and you've got the family weeping. You're walking around and the Mom or wife recognizes you and she's not going to let you touch him."

Luke: "That would be a great scene."

Stevi: "There were a couple of shoots I had to turn down because they wanted me in firefighter gear, or medic gear. It's disrespectful. It's spitting in the face of everything I've trained hard for."

Luke: "Do you regret getting into this [porn]?"

Stevi is silent.

Luke: "Because it sabotaged all your hard work."

Stevi: "No, because mountain rescue or something in a small town."

Luke: "Brooke Lane has come back."

Stevi: "She's going to put out a couple of movies. It's not her childhood dream either."

A few years ago, Stevi worked as a medic and a stripper. A lot of firefighters came in to see her dance. I had so much saved. I lived off that while I went to school in Miami for a year. Then I moved to LA [in the summer of 2000]. Within two months I was broke. So I was flipping through the paper and I saw this ad for figure modeling. I say, I can do that. I can dance. It's no big deal. I walked in [to Jim South's office] and it was total porn.

"All the time that I danced [ten years], we'd have porn stars who'd come in to feature. We didn't want them breathing on us. It was their own mannerisms. They looked hard. They were always trashed.

"I had the misconceptions that a lot of people do, that porn is disgusting and revolting. I was shocked when I went to my first set. Though there are things that really concern me about coming back into it. But I'm on a six month plan and then I'm done. Right now I'm going through some stuff with the IRS.

"I'm going to buy a house. I'm going to take my excess money and diversify into three money-making accounts and go back to work as a medic in a small town."

Luke: "But you will leave your mother behind?"

Stevi: "That's the only bad thing."

Luke: "But you will leave all your friends behind?"

Stevi: "I don't have any friends. I really don't. I don't have one friend. I don't talk to anybody."

Luke: "Because this industry is socially isolating."

Stevi: "How can you be friends with porn people. And with real people, you have to hide your other life.

"I want to have a kid. I don't need to have a husband or a boyfriend for that. I need a bar with some drunk guy."

Steve Hatcher walks up. I ask him how his beat-up blonde girlfriend Anna Mills is doing. He says she's getting better. They're not boyfriend - girlfriend anymore.

Aria walks in dripping with sweat from her scene with Alec. I tell her to stay away from me. She chases me. I flee from her. She grabs me and rubs her dripping body all over me. I shriek with horror. I'm squeamish about sharing bodily fluids. I don't even like going down on a woman.

Cronin works on a coffee table softcore book of porn stars. No text, just pictures.

Aria, who grew up in Rhode Island, says when she was 17-years old, she was propositioned by the head of the state's most popular strip club chain, Foxy Ladies, to come dance.

The chain offers the "legs and eggs breakfast show."

When she turned 20, Aria moved to Florida. Her Mafia friends offered her protection. She said no.

Aria's husband Jack Spade is doing scenes again.

I hear Chloe Dior is pregnant.

I hear Britt Morgan has returned to LA and is working in porn behind the scenes. She was operating a dump truck business with her boyfriend. She has a baby.

....................................

I speak by phone with Aria April 30.

Aria: "I'm competing on Saturday near San Francisco. The state championships are May 23-24."

Luke: "Is it a prerequisite that contestants do porn?"

Aria: "No. It is not required but it is accepted. There are a few. Kim Chambers placed third in the Orange County show last week. Rhonda Lee is competing. Devon Michaels competes. Racquel Darrian has done it.

"My trainer trained Racquel Darrian, Stacey Valentine, Pamela Anderson."

Luke: "How much do you workout?"

Aria: "Normally I do 45-minutes of cardio in the morning and an hour of weights plus eat fish and chicken and vegetables."

Luke: "How does your husband like your hard body?"

Aria: "He loves it. It's sexy to him. What do you think?"

Luke: "Can you pick him up and carry him around?"

Aria: "No. I'm not masculinely huge. I'm still small. I'm just lean and strong."

Philip J. Starr Vs. Alec Metro

Starr emails me:

My name is Philip Starr and while we have never met, you wrote a couple of items about me when I took over as C.E.O. of Jill Kelly Productions.

There is a situation involving Alec Metro that I think you would be interested.

About 5 years ago I hired Alec to produce a couple of movies. I recently learned from someone at Hustler that Alec stiffed all or part of his cast and/or crew by not paying them and then telling them (and is still telling people) that I paid him by letter of credit and then revoked the L/C so that he had no money to pay them. And then I ran into Alec on Saturday night at the Brittnay Rears party. He came up to me being very indignant, telling me that I ruined him in the industry by revoking the L/C resulting in his inability to pay people on the movie. And then he demanded my contact information since he wanted to sue me and strongly urged me to leave the party. Of course on Monday, I requested a copy of my bank statement from December 2001, which was when I sent him the wire transfer and the statement clearly reflects that $25,000 was deducted from my account and wired to Alec's company, Sand & Surf. I am attaching herewith a copy of that statement.

The statement shows Philip Starr with $16 left in his bank account.

Alec Metro told me his side of things in June 2003.

I called him Sept. 26, 2006, and he gave me the same story about Phillip Starr.

Alec said one check bounced on an LFP shoot but that is has been made up.

Other sources say many people on that LFP shoot got bad checks or weren't paid at all.

An LFP source writes: "We took a chance on Alec and gave him a few movies to shoot under the VCA brand. The first title turned out very good. The second title "Kink", had multiple problems. I do know that several people on the crew and talent were left with out getting paid. In fact we have been doing what we can at LFP to cover those folks who've been screwed by Mr. Metro. I've told most of the vendors and agents not to work with him until he covers all the bounced checks."

Alec writes in response to my questions:

I went in Hustler in March of this year and after negotiations, the production staff agreed to to have myself and Mr. Eric Lasher, shoot several wall to wall videos at $25,000 per movie plus $2,500 for post production. I shot the first movie called "Ghouls Gone Wild" all went well, movie was turned in on time and no over cost occurred. They loved what I did. It was an excellent product with the best talent, sets, costumes and overall production value and quality. They gave the go ahead for the second production, it went into effect, and another $25,000 was granted. I informed them I would be shooting a 1940's Pin Up style movie. This time I used the Hustler studios. At the Hustler studio I ordered the following props. Life size battle ship, a life size fighter jet, boxing ring, beach with a Cadillac, and a living room scene. The studio was to cost $1,200.00 for 12 hours and the props $800.00 was the quote and amount told to me for Hustler studio and props.

After hiring all talent, locking down studio time with props being built, Hustler staff even did a walkthrough and was very impressed with what was being created. One week before I am to receive the check for $25,000 I was informed by Hustler staff that my budget was being cut by $5,000. By then the entire budget, was to the penny. So production manager Jim Steele and my self started cutting corners. In the end I still went over budget by $2,700 initially. Studio and props, ended up costing more then the original estimate I was quoted, due to overtime created by Mr. Eric Lasher the co-director of the film, there were problems with the tie together of the movie, the wrap around (dialogue), by the non-sexual role "hostess" of the film, which had to be shot, re shot, and re shot a third time. With make-up and locations, overtime and rental of props I spent another $1,000 dollars, fixing the dialogue and the tie in scene problems.

Mr. Lasher was insistent that these shots of the hostess be re-shot and then reshot again, as well as causing the overtime charges on the original studio time. Mr. Lasher was also the editor on this film and with the time being wasted on such a trivial part of the overall film, it was delaying the actual editing and rendering of the film and delaying the product being turned into Hustler on time, which created a sittuation within its self, between Mr. Lasher and Hustler.

At one point, Mr. Lasher did not have the appropriate type deck to render the finished editid version of the film onto, which Hustler had requested and I personlly took the expense of renting this very expensive deck and buying the actual tapes so that the finished product could in fact be turned in to Hustler. Mr. Lasher recieved $2500 editing fee from Hustler, which he did not use towards the deck or tapes or overages he cost with all of the delays and reshoots.

At this point my supposed duties where over, it was now in the hands of the editor. But, I was very concerned with the overall integrity of the project so I continued to keep a daily watch over the editing process and to put in even more of my personal time and money to assure the outcome of the film. With this being said, the film was turned in, late due to Mr. Lashers issues, but Hustler was very pleased regardless with the final product "Pin Up Pussies". So I reported back to LFP with my project "Pin Up Pussies" and they loved every minute of the trailer I submitted. The final cut of pin ups, was still in the process of being editied by Mr.Lasher. I informed them I was over budget with the studio, but they were happy with the results of Pin Ups, thus far, and they offered another $25,000 to shoot my 3rd movie, "Kink" and I could pay the overages from pin ups with the new "kink" budget. So I then asked, "I thought that all budgets are now $20,000?" Hustler staff then informed me that that was only a "TEST" to see how I would do under the pressure of a budget cut. And then they proceded to cut me another budget for $25,000.

So I then went into production for "KinK" mind you all my sets, wardrobe, and talent are all high end. Top dollar goes into my productions, I get paid $3,500 per shoot which comes out of the original $25,000 making my budgets actually $21,500. My production manager is forwarded all budgets for review and he knows where all the money goes, I've never made my full $3,500 check because I care more about production more then my check. In the end I have always put a good portion of my pay back into the overall budget of the films. Well the roll over cost from Pin Ups caused a domino effect into "Kink" and in the end Mr. Lasher was not allowed to edit "kink" and once the final copy of "Pin up Pussy" was turned in, Hustler informed Mr. Lasher that they would not be requiring his services anymore and that he would not be getting any further projects from them, they even ended up cutting part of his final editing fees, to pay for corections that needed to be made prior to the final "pin up" product being released.

After the third film "Kink", was shot, and the masters given over to Hustler, a month after we wrapped production, I was informed that three checks had returned relating to the shoot. 1) One to Film Werx which was covered in full imeadiatly . 2) Rita Fayltiano returned for $1,400.00 3)Jayna Oso check returned for $1,000. Making that a total of $2,400.00. My production manager contacted those parties and informed them that I would cover those checks personally, shortly after that Hustler shut down all production for everyone, including myself, leaving me with no future income. There had been a prior promise of a forth budget made to me, that did not include Mr. Lasher, due to the problems he created with the other productions. It was implied that there was no problem with my returning to direct a fourth project, and so on. And, that it was understood that Mr. Lasher, being co- director of the first three projects and editor, had created the problems which had occured to this point and that I would be gettting the next budget within days, of that final meeting at Hustler.

I was then told several times on the phone numerous reasons for the delay of my fourth budget, and then finally was told that my next budget would be dependent on the numbers that "Pin ups" generated, and also the numbers on "Kink". I figured they would stand by their word that they took the sittuation at hand as a problem with Mr. Lasher and the delays and editing mistakes and overages where to be his burden. I was told that they loved the overall products I had thus far turned in and they loved the style and creativity that my films showed, and therefore I would have a future directing for Hustler. Which today, in light of their statements does not seem to be the case.

I've stayed in contact with these two parties to which there are outstanding fees, to this day as I figure out how to pay them back. If you do the math it is exactly half the amount I went over on the Pin Up budget that was cut from me last minute. This is not an issue about me over spending it was an unfair decision to cut money from me last minute and quote "test" me, thus causing a domino effect into the "Kink" budget. Mr. Lasher seems to have been given co- director credit and also recieved his fees, but it seems that no blame is being placed on the person that was the source of the problems, and in the end it all falls upon me, my reputation and my integrity.

I would not have encountered these problems if Mr. Lasher had not been given director status, and failed to keep things on track by creating unneccasary problems with the productions and timelines. It is a lie to say all crew and talent were stiffed, only two (2) people are owed and I'm working on that problem as I write this. I am in communication with both parties on these issues. And, they have agreed to be patient with me due to the nature of the sittuation, and knowing that my directing income had completely and abruptly come to a halt, and based on the fact that the entire business nearly came to a halt this summer, and that I was working as talent if need be to cover these two small debts, which I was only partly responsiable for they have been very accomidating and understanding and they know I'm a man of my word they will get the money that is owed to them, wheter owed by me or not. But it is a slightly frustraiting to be left with these claims and stories that are surrfacing, when I was not alone on these projects and I was not the cause of the delays or overall expenses and I guess the one question everyone should be asking is where is Mr. Lasher in all of this?

I've contacted Mr. Spiegler agent to Jayna and she has been paid by him personally, so I owe Mr. Speigler the amount of $1000. And production manager Jim Steel is in communication with miss Rita Faltiyano about her $1400, in fact I just e-mailed him 2 weeks ago to inform him I'm working as talent to get her the money, per his words she is fine with the situation. No one has been ignored or stiffed. As for the source at Hustler's quote" they have contacted other agents and distributors", not to hire me or deal with me.... makes it even harder for me to find a job, and make good on these two outstanding amounts. This would have never happened if Hustler staff had not cut money from me last minute just to watch me struggle with the overages. These movies are great product, they invested a full page ad in the AVN for it... and have done press releases on Pin Up's. All my money goes into production value, it is clear when you see these movies, lighting, cams, locations, wardrobe and the best talent avaiable in the industry...

These are not cheezy low budget porno's..shot with some $300 video camera at the local cheap motel.. these are sexy artistic and creative films that are put together with attention to every detail....and they are exactly what Hustler Video wanted, and what Hustler video in the end recieved.... What this is really about, is a letter from a Mr. Philip J Starr, current CEO/Chairman of Jill Kelly Productions who is a man trying to cover his tracks and his checkered past. He claims to be a Louisiana based lawyer, but upon looking him up on the Louisiana State bar assc. website that name does not exist.

The only Philip Starr, not Philip J Starr that pops up is a Beverly Hills based lawyer, that is a member in good standing with the California state bar I contacted him to double verify it was not in fact Philip J Starr, and he says that he had heard of, and had past dealing with Philip J. Starr as an IRS lawyer and had one dealing 15 years ago in a tax dispute type case and since then the only thing he has heard about him was one year ago he read about a fraud based interview regarding this Philip J. Starr, who shares the same name minus the middle initial, in an adult industry related situation, but does not recall what he read, but he did say it was "not good" and told me to "Google" Phillp J. Starr's name for the information. He said it was easy to recall these details due to the resemblence in simularity of there names and professions, but that seems to be where the simularities end.

My on staff photographer Vladimir, has information on how several years ago, in a mainstream industry situation, Mr. Philip J. Starr committed unfair and unethical practices involving conflict of interest and other legal unethical practices on his shoot. Back in December 2001, a situation happened with me on the first day of my shoot, Mr. Starr was my executive producer. Equipment owner and sound man, Kenneth Hurt, informed me he was quitting and taking his equipment and crew with him cause he recognized Mr. Starr from the year previous, (2000) where he (Kenny) and another cameraman were defrauded of their money and worked with out pay. Mr. Starr informed them that when he sold the movie they would be paid, that was 5 years ago that crew is still not paid. If Mr. Starr is in fact a lawyer, he is clever, but has a reputation as an unethical business man and I am confidant that more negative information will surface as this investigation goes further and deeper into the past and practices of this man. And as soon as my bank conducts their investigation on his said deposit into my account which may reveal several ways that one can defraud banks and institutions individual accounts, and since he may have been an IRS attorney or some type of attorney he might be very skilled in his ways, but there is always something that is out of place or done incorrectly or innappropriately.

I will continue to pursue this investigation and I will continue to research into the past acts and dealings of Mr. Philip J. Starr. I will do all the digging, investigating and background history into his past which I'm sure I will find he is linked to several other wrong doings. The bank statement he sent is an account for one month only with a balance of exactly $25,000 from a credit based on line banking firm. My bank statement read "line of credit" which I feel he cancelled once he received the 2 movie masters and left town. T hat caused me to spend "Pleasure productions money on his shoot, thus resulting in Pleasure Productions shoot money to bounce. With a combined $40,000 0f "Pleasure Productions money in my account and the $25,000 from Mr. Starr it is hard to believe checks would start bouncing (3) days later during my shoot with Pleasure.

I shot two days with Mr. Starr took one day off and shot two days with Pleasures money, now unless everyone from all three shoots ran down the next day and all cashed their checks it would be impossible to empty an account in less then 3 days, talent will cash checks asap,but crew usually submits their check in their accounts and it is a matter of time before they are paid off. On the first day after I wrapped the Pleasure shoot, I submitted a personal check for $1,000 and it bounced, at that time my bank informed me I was $3,500 into my overdraft. In the following weeks I will parade witness interviews to confirm all of these statements on this site.And I will also submit proof and source of any info I obtain in the future relating to Mr. Philip J. Starr.

Finally, it should be noted: When Hustler cut the $5,000 from my budget I should have cancelled the shoot and regrouped and made double sure that everything was in order before continuing the shoot, therefore it was my responsibility and my decision to figure the best way to bring it it under budget and I didn't. I was convinced that my hard work and talent as a director would make up for any small mistakes I made monetarily, but the $2,400 ended up blowing up in my face. Therefore I assume full responsibility for my actions as well as those of Mr. Eric Lasher it seems and will pay the people owed. I feel this doesn't make me a bad person just bad at accounting and a bit to trusting of people I have entered into business relationships with in the past ....I guess I will be a bit more sceptile in the future as to whom I choose to have dealings with and as to whom I allow to be part of future projects ....... my goal is and always has been to deliver a product that is both something to be proud of and profiatable ..... I plan to continue to always see outside the box and to make movies that people both enjoy and remember.

PS. If you really do the math after receiving close to $70,000 from LFP $2,400 over budget works out to about $800.00 each feature and I would say that's not that bad.
