JJ moved to Los Angeles 2/97 and has worked constantly since, appearing in 300 videos. The muscular 5'5" blonde appears in New Wave Hookers 5 and The Devil in Miss Jones 6. His favorite performances came for the kinky Jim Powers. "He always does weird stuff which makes it fun," JJ told me 12/13/98. "I f---ed a pretend dead girl in Perverted Stories. I dug her up, made dinner for her, then f---ed her. They made her up as though she was dead. She couldn't move or make any noise. In another one, I was a leprechaun. In Chamber of Horrors, I'm a strange man coming out of a toilet. "I did a cool [Vivid] movie for PT with lots of dialogue but it's not as fun. I'd rather do screwball things where you have a good time all day and everybody's happy. It's porno after all. It's about the sex, don't worry about a drawn out plot. "I've done stage acting for years but this is more fun. "I play a movie producer in Cockzilla 3 for Frank Thring. I got to go to Australia for Private. We shot in Melbourne. I found my girlfriend there. We just got back [11/98]. She's coming here in two weeks." Most of the leading sex performers worldwide, male and female, are short like JJ. Marc Davis and Jon Dough are exceptions. "Most of the girls are short too," says Michaels, "so it really doesn't matter, unless you're working with Houston. I did one scene with her. "This business is harder than you think. You get bored with it quick. "I direct features (Porn World was released first from VCA) now in Europe for Sin City and VCA. "Shooting in Europe with condoms is stupid. They all look at you like an idiot. They don't like them either, so I generally shot without them. "I hate working with condoms. They're not needed. We're all tested [for HIV]. If you go see a Jackie Chan movie, do you want so see wires and pads? No. And people don't want to see condoms in a porno. The average person, while watching a porno, does not think, 'hmmm, are they endangering themselves?' "I think we should do what the Hungarians do - have only one testing center. "If a girl wants a condom, that's fine. I'm a professional performer. But it should be left up to the performers. I don't agree with Vivid's mandatory policy. "I've never won any AVN awards and I don't care about them. I don't think their awards are legitimate. It would be the same thing if Entertainment Weekly ran the Oscars. It would be a huge conflict of interest. If you're running an awards show and you receive your money from the awards, there's a problem. "I make movies for fans, not for critics who say they've never jerked off to a porno [like AVN's Gene Ross and Jim Holliday]. I don't want such people watching my movies. I want people to jerk off to them. "The reverse cowgirl position is always the best one to show on camera. The girl always looks beautiful. No matter how much they whine, you just explain to them that they will look prettier if they do it. "I always shoot five positions for every sex scene and there's always a good reverse cowgirl vaginal or anal in there... "American and Australian girls whine about doing anal. Americans are anal about anal... I went to Europe [10/98] and did 40 anal scenes. None of the girls complained about the [upward] curve of my dick. "My family know about my [porn] work. My brother is weird about it, my mother hates it and my dad tolerates it. They'd prefer me to direct rather than perform. "I go to a free clinic once a month to get a full STD panel. If I ever catch something, I take a couple of weeks off work." In the fall of 1998, JJ traveled to Europe with John Decker and Roxanne Hall to perform in videos for their new company. "I was there. But I can't talk about it. It was an interesting trip. "I've never gone to jail. I don't drink or smoke. I've smoked pot three times in my life. I don't shoot up my dick. "People are paranoid [about men who shoot up their dicks to get erections]. Everyone thinks that if you get a hard-on, you must be shooting up. But there are pills that can do it... As a director, I just want to see a hard-on. If I don't, I get pissed off. It happened to me in Europe. We grabbed some Viagra and told the guy, 'come back in 40 minutes and give us a f---ing scene.' "I love working with the Europeans. They do great scenes and don't complain. This last trip I got to do Nikki Anderson and Sylvia Saint, amazing performers. "Many European girls will say 'no anal,' to which I reply [as director], 'no pay.' Then they say, 'ok.' They just wanted to get out of the work. I'm such a nice guy they try to take advantage of me. Your average European director yells and screams and shoot long intense scene. Many of European girls like anal. You don't even have to use lube. "My girlfriend understands this is just a job. I'm not making love, I'm f---ing, usually in weird uncomfortable positions." A tall blonde walks by. Luke: "What's her name?" JJ: "I forgot. I did a scene with her yesterday. "People forget that this is a job. The performer should always look like she's enjoying it. You see in some of the Ed Powers that the [new] girls look miserable. That's not a good performer. She should 'love it,' whether she does or not. "The men in this business are just drones. You rent movies to see the girls, unless you're gay, in which case you should rent gay movies. The guys are prettier."
