The steamiest sex scenes
ever captured on adult films have to go to Heather Hunter. She has done things
with her body only a gymnast could handle. She's also one of the most popular
adult film stars of the 20th century as well as the most popular black adult
film star in the world.
She has been in the adult
film industry for an ironic thirteen years, but let's call them her lucky 13.
Films such as "The Look 2000," "Heather Hunted,"
"Torch" and "Performance" are now things of the past. She
has moved from adult films to pursue more of her creative talents.
Currently, Heather could
be seen hosting a sexy/music video show on pay-per-view called "The Peep
Show." As always, Heather has been a friendly, genuine spirit. Still, her
undeniable beauty (including her signature long and curly black hair) and open
sexuality disgust some people and yet, wow others, male and female. The
choices she made in her life are surprisingly, respected by many.
In this rare interview,
Heather talks about the adult film industry, bisexuality and motherhood.
Gene: Is Heather Hunter
your real name?
Heather: Yeah, Heather
Keisha Hunter. It has that Lois Lane sound.
Gene: I understand you
stop doing adult movies, but I'm curious about how you got started. The
beginnings basically.
Heather: Okay, I use to
work at Latin Quarters in New York. Around that time, I was still dancing and
stripping. I was approached by this girl named Hyapatia Lee (an adult film
star) and suggested I think about doing films. At that time, you're eighteen
years old and there's really no sexual taboo within exploring your sexuality.
I did my first film (which was taped on her eighteenth birthday) and it was
incredible. (Laughs) I had a great time. The sex came so natural. The only
thing that made me nervous was the dialogue. I had no clue about how to act.
Gene: That first movie was
named after you.
Heather: It was called
"Heather."
Gene: If you could look
back, what would be your best and worst film?
Heather: I would say my
worst, wow, hmmm...
Gene: It was called
"Wow"?
Heather: (Laughs) No.
Gene: It could've been.
Heather: Wow...my worst,
when I was in Hawaii shooting a movie, "Hawaiian Blast." I fell in
the lake under strong, water currents. I had a cut on my knee while I was
doing one of my sex scenes with a bandage. (Laughs) My best, I would have to
say, "Torch." It was actually a true story about my life, my sexual
life.
Gene: Have you seen all
your movies?
Heather: Everyone. I get
them as soon as they hit the press. I go home and screen it like a screening.
(Laughs) I have some on DVD.
Gene: What do you think
people's perceptions are of you? Also, what is it that people miss about you?
Heather: Those are really
good questions. I get respect because I'm a nice person, but they are always
looking at me like I can't even explain. They're admiring me. Not of what I
do, but not having any inhibitions. My cards are basically on the table.
That's a shock value in itself. And you can't judge anyone unless you walk in
their shoes.
Gene: Now in your movies,
were you actually having orgasms?
Heather: Out of all my
movies, you do two and a half scenes, I got off at least once in every movie.
Because I'm a very sensitive person. And my imagination is wild as well. A man
can't make you have an orgasm. It's all in the woman's mind. All the things
men bring to the table is extra benefits. I know a lot of women who can't have
an orgasm. They're waiting for the man. You can't wait for the man. You have
to stimulate your own brain creatively and then, it will happen.
Gene: Do you prefer men or
women?
Heather: I'm bisexual. I
was born bisexual. I prefer men. I love women. It's intercepted in any
relationship. If not, then I can't be me.
Gene: I know women don't
like being asked their age, but how old are you?
Heather: 29 and I tell the
truth. (Heather was born in South Bronx, New York on October 1, 1969)
Gene: So why did you
retire from the adult industry?
Heather: Because the
industry has changed, a new generation. Generation X. I love the legendary
crowd of the early 90s. It's all action-adventure porn now. (Laughs)
Gene: You never thought
about directing adult films?
Heather: No, I don't want
to be responsible for anyone catching AIDS. I don't want that on my conscience
for the rest of my life.
Gene: I understand you
have an album coming out? (Her noted music attempt was an Island Records
single, "I Want It All Night Long")
Heather: It will be out in
Europe soon. It's house taking on hip-hop. (The album is still untitled, but
the first single, "Toot Toot Beep Beep") I'm just working on stuff.
I'm working on an upcoming art show for New York City. Pop art, abstract,
graffiti work, uniqueness.
Gene: Is it true that
you're putting together a book of children stories? Under an alias name?
Heather: No, but that's a
good idea though.
Gene: Do you want to talk
about the rumor that you infected Magic Johnson with AIDS?
Heather: Yes, crazy rumor
of my life. I know Magic and I met him one time prior to the rumor. It put a
damper on my life. I never slept with him, but I did have an affair with
Kareem Abdul-Jabar. And that's probably how it got started. The proof is in
the pudding. I'm still bouncing around, doing my thing. And I get tested every
three months. I figure from this point on, any rumor can't top that one.
(Laughs) Thank God the biggest one is out the way.
Gene: Here's a fantasy
question for you. If you could do one more adult film with your dream star,
who would it be?
Heather: Porn star wise or
from the mainstream?
Gene: It could be anybody,
but let's say from the mainstream.
Heather: (Laughs
devilishly) Well, can I say a male and a female?
Gene: Sure.
Heather: Halle Berry.
Gene: Really?
Heather: And Larenz Tate.
That's my fantasy mainstream.
Gene: Are you planning to
be a mother one day?
Heather: Oh yeah.
Gene: How would you
address your adult film career to your son or daughter?
Heather: The greatest
thing with children is honesty. Whether they accept my lifestyle is more in
making them understand. I will approach the subject early. Children are
growing fast these days and their mindset is incredible. You have to take them
on full force. Every motion you go by step by step I think the child should go
by.
Gene: If you could go back
over your life, would you still have been in the adult industry?
Heather: I wouldn't be
where I'm at now (if it wasn't for the adult industry) and I'm extremely
happy. I'm so at peace, it's disgusting.
Gene: I think you should
run for president.
Heather: (Laughs and
laughs) Oh, that's funny.
Gene: You'd have a lot of
votes.
Heather: But right now, I
just want to write a book. I don't want to write my life story, just life
experiences.
Gene: Well, it was good
talking to you.
Heather: You too.
Gene: Bye! Just Kidding.
Heather: That's cold.
(Laughs)
