Check this out....Holly bares her soul (well, at least shows some cleavage of her soul) in an interview. She gives some interesting and funny answers from her UNIQUE Perspective in the Porn Industry as the "Most Erotic Woman In Porn."
10 Questions With Da Burglar: Special Edition -- Holly Randall
1) Holly its a blast getting you to do something like this....so here goes. Of all the sex scenes you have filmed so far, if you had to show someone like me, Da Burglar, who has NOT seen any of your work, which is the single best, sexiest, hottest scene you personally filmed? Who was in it, what acts did it encompass and where can I find it to actually watch it?
Holly: Oh boy... to pick out one hot scene is a bit difficult-- there have been many. Let's see... though I'm a pervert who likes multiple guy on girl scenes, we don't shoot too many of those, and if we do, it's only two guys. Tory Lane did her first boy/boy/girl scene with us aways back, and though there is no DP or anal, it's still a hot scene-- we shot it in a bathroom set so it's all oily and shiny and lovely. Though as I said it was shot a while ago, it's coming up on our next DVD, "Bra Bustin' and Deep Thrustin" which is, if you haven't guessed, an all big boob flick. Another favorite scene of mine is curiously an all girl threesome with Belladonna, Teagan, and Jana Cova. Now anyone who knows me well knows I'm not really into girls sexually, so girl/girl scenes rarely do it for me. But pretty much anything with Belladonna in it is great and Teagan had specifically asked my mother for Bella to be in the scene. So for me, to see the anticipated chemistry between the two of them explode once the cameras started rolling was great. You can find this scene on "Undressed and Oversexed."
I know there are others I'm going to kick myself later for forgetting so I'll have to get back to you on this one.
2a) Building on the first question, a lot of readers and fans of yours want to know, do you ever actually, seriously get turned on during the filming of the sex scenes and photography sessions you direct? How do you handle such a situation? Have you ever been tempted to jump in the action?
2b) Outside of your own product, Do you watch pornography at all, either for business/research purposes or for pleasure? If so what do you typically watch or like to watch, and what was the last porn film you watched that was NOT your own product?
Holly: (2a&2b) Yes, certain scenes have turned me on, but it's a momentary thing that soon fades once the scene is over. I never have the inclination, nor would ever consider jumping in. I can't even imagine it.
OK, so I like really pervy stuff... like gangbangs *blushes*. But the problem is that I know most of the performers and I can't watch a scene with someone I know in it. I was perfectly happy with my Gangbang Auditions ..I-can't-remember until we booked Scott Nails for the first time, and to my dismay he was one of the guys in every scene. After I got to know Scott and like him on a personal level I couldn't masturbate to that DVD anymore. So I hid it somewhere and I've now forgotten where it is. I have tons of the boring porn that I can't even bring myself to watch-- big name feature crap like "The Devil in Miss Jones" and a Digital Playground big budget something-or-other. I like my porn done by the smaller, nastier gonzo studios, and that's what I DON'T have.
3) As the daughter of a legend in your chosen field, Suze Randall, have you ever felt the pressure or weight of expectations on your shoulders, to do AT LEAST as well as your mother did during the height of her career? To further clarify and help answer that question, what are the barometers of success for what you do? Is it just MONEY alone, or do you include awards and other forms of recognition in determining if Holly Randall has lived up to her mother's name and standing? And finally, to borrow a tool from Luke's chest, do you resent your mother for anything?
Holly: Of course I feel the weight of expectation... I get the comment "You've got big shoes to fill" all the time. Obviously the success of the website translates directly into membership signups which translates as money, and I certainly measure a degree of success that way. But in terms of awards and such, I don't plan to win any anytime soon-- my mom certainly hadn't by my age (actually I think she was still modeling by my age). Plus, I don't measure success by awards, I measure it by staying power. And that's something I pray I have. The only thing I might just resent my mom for is making me ride horses my entire youth so I had to give up all other extracurricular activities. But that has nothing to do with work.

5) Drug use is rampant in the Porn industry, and often on actual porn sets, according to many anecdotal sources. It is often evidenced in the appearance and behavior of talent themselves. From obvious drunkeness at 11:30 in the morning, to track marks on the limbs, and from pupils either constricted or dilated beyond any normally explicable circumstance, to more subtle actions like models clutching and guarding bottles of pills like Vicodin or Xanax which allow them to quash their conscience and perform these degrading acts. You, Holly are known for your ZERO Tolerance of drug use on your sets and in your shoots. Is drug use the single biggest problem with the Pornographic Industry today, or is there something else looming as a bigger, more menacing issue (like censorship or 2257 regs)?
Holly: The meth issue is certainly more rampant now than I've seen it in a long time, but I try to keep myself out of those situations by not hiring those who are using. If you show up to my set fucked up once, its highly unlikely I'll book you again. I also dont book girls who are rumored to be on drugs...more times than not the rumors are true, and almost every time I ignore the warnings I come to regret it. In fact, XPT is a good place to find out who is clean and who is not.
6a) Holly, I often freely refer to you as the "Most Erotic Woman In Porn", even though you do not perform and have sex for all the world to see. Your beauty and sex appeal, nonetheless, is epic...
That being said, Jenna Jameson has a Life Size Blow Up Doll that her fans can purchase and obviously simulate the most depraved, debauched, and fucked up acts of perversion their warped minds can conjure. It is enough to make a civilized, intellectual pervert like Da Burglar shudder....so let me ask you this: Would Holly Randall allow a Life Size Doll of herself to be manufactured and sold to the general public? How would you feel about that, being fucked and ejaculated on in effigy all over the world by men (perverts?) you never even met, nor probably would want to meet? **THIS IS IMPORTANT, Holly, since you do not actually perform in Pornographic films, a life size doll might allow a reasonable compromise between your moral standards, and the sexual needs of men everywhere who find you incredibly sexy.
Holly: No I dont think I'd ever produce a Holly Randall sex doll mainly because I honestly dont think it would sell. Plus those dolls are super creepy looking.
6b) In the hypothetical manufacturing of such a doll, which feature of yours do you feel is your best that you would want to replicate EXACTLY on your doll, and which feature of yours would you like "fudged" (or enhanced/made better) because you feel in real life it is less than optimal?
Holly: I like my eyebrows and my nose, and my stomach when Im in shape. I dont like my legs.... if they could thin out my thighs and lengthen my legs that would kick ass.
6c) Finally, would you allow your doll to be marketed along with a life size "Luke Ford" doll, comprising a Ken and Barbie type package for porn fans and sex toy enthusiasts? And Would a Da Burglar life size replica be a welcome accessory to "Luke and Holly", where fans could simulate Da Burglar wheeling frantically after Luke and Holly in a vain attempt to "catch up with them" and either encourage, or prevent an actual wedding, followed by simulated honeymoon sex?
Holly: LOL you have WAY too much time on your hands!
7) Rank in order of importance (1 being the most important, 2 the next most, etc) the qualities you find MOST important in a man as a potential mate/partner:
Looks: 6
Intelligence: 1
Foot Massage Ability: 8
Dick Size: 7
Sense of Humor: 2
Ability to Give Oral Sex to a Woman:
Love for his Mother: 3
Concern for the Environment: 4
Cooking Ability: 5
Money/Financial Situation: 9
How nice a car or wheelchair he drives: 10
8) Holly, What do you think of the practice of DONKEY PUNCHING? Have you ever been Donkey Punched in your private sex life (or would you like to), and do you plan on filming a Donkey Punch Video in any of your own productions?
Holly: I think its way over the top violent, and the idea makes me sick to my stomach.
9) What was the LAST thing you did to help someone out where you didnt receive or expect something in return? It could be anything, such as taking a sick friend to the doctor, sitting up all night with a friend over a breakup, volunteering to work with crippled or retarded kids, donating blood, etc. And what was the most recent KIND Deed done to you by someone else?
Holly: Throwing Luke his 40th birthday I guess? The last kind deed someone did for me? Someone opened the door for me at Starbucks today. Does that count?
10a) Some of the various sex acts depicted in porn today, especially Gonzo, are extreme, and typically are not things the average loving couple would even think to try or do in their daily sex lives. An example is the practice of "Cumfarting", which I am sure you know what it is and do not need an explanation. Do you feel, Holly, that Pornography, instead of merely satisfying existing sexual appetites and fantasies, actually CREATES sexual appetites in people? Discuss this in terms of popular acts depicted like Cumfarting, Bukkake, or excessive ingestion of ejaculations collected in cups or glasses...is this healthy for peoples' sex lives, and sexuality in general, to see things like this OVER and OVER, and then attempt them or adopt them as the new standard of what is "sexy"?
I dont think you can create a sexual appetite...I think whatever degree of sexuality we have resides in us at all times, it just takes a certain someone/situation to bring it out in people. At the age of 39, I got Luke to do things he'd never done before! I knew there was a pervert residing deep inside him, and I was right!
10b) Holly, since you in your work focus on more subtle, artistic forms of eroticism, where the emphasis is on beauty and visual stimulation, and NOT bodily fluid wearing and consumption , do you feel pressure to make your product more "nasty or raunchy" in order to sell it?
Oh definitely. The more hardcore we go, the more magazine sales we make, and from recent polls on our site there is a big demand for more hardcore. Our audience tends to not like the super extreme stuff -- double anal, bukkakes, etc -- but they do like anal and boy/girl hardcore, especially fetish. But there is a line I dont want to cross, I dont want to ever do a scene that resembles any of those that are under the obscenity microscope right now. Those are a bit too much for me...if it personally repulses me, then I dont want to film it.
