Interview with Adult Film Star August Ames

This is our first time together, huh? I know. Well, nice to meet you. August Ames, boys and girls. Thank you. Welcome to our humble abode, man.

It's very lovely. Now, August, I want to ask you a couple questions to get to know you a little better, okay? Okay.

How long, uh, how long have you been in the industry though? Yesterday actually marked my two-year anniversary- Whoa ... or porniversary. So I've been in the industry for two

years. Whoa, okay. Yeah. Cool beans. Cool beans. Now, um, as far as the industry overall, has it, you know,

been pretty fulfilling for you? Everything you thought it would be- Actually- ... you know, some things and- Yeah, it has been much better than I thought it would be.

I didn't even know- ... that I was going to, like, be established in the industry. I thought that I would just do a couple of scenes and then go back home, but I really, I enjoyed it. And so, so far my whole experience has been really

great. And- Awesome ... yeah, I've been even, even my family, you know, they know, and they think it's cool. Well, not cool, but they support me.

Okay. So I, it's, I've h- I've had just good experiences. So- Okay. Awesome ... yeah.

Awesome, man. And home is? Canada. Canada. Home is Canada. Canadian. O-

... Canada. ... Canada. We're native man. That's awesome, man. Love it. Love it. Welcome to America. Yeah. It is welcome to America.

Exactly. Yeah. Now, interestingly enough, uh, you know, we, we in particular here at, uh, Interracial Porn 411, uh, we, we have a, a affinity, uh, for discussing the ins and outs, the nuances, if

you will- Mm-hmm ... of, uh, interracial porn. Big words. Absolutely. In, in particular, uh, uh, Black males and, and white

females type porn. Mm-hmm. So, uh, your first interracial scene per se was with? Was with Prince Yashua.

Really? Okay. Yes. My first one. Okay. And- And taking from the smile on your face- ... that went okay?

Yeah. It went- Yeah, I was, I was just thinking about it. And my, my first, uh, interracial scene, I was, um, I was, it was my third scene in. Whoa.

And I know. I know. Really? That's awesome. It was my third scene in. I didn't really know that y- you can, like, work these things to, like, get a good deal on stuff or something.

I- That's awful I just said that. I don't mean to say that. But I don't regret doing it. So- Okay ... it, it was fun. It was, it was with Prince, and I, I was, I was just, I was smaller than I am

now, and I was so shy, and I didn't, I didn't know that you're supposed to talk in a porno. Wow. So, so I was afraid to say anything, and he, i- it was just Prince with his knee pads

fucking me. And I, and I'm just like, "Oh." I was really, really nervous, but everyone loved that scene. Mm-hmm.

But I c- it, I j- it's funny when I look at old photos of this scene, I just see how scared I was. Wow. Wow. Now, now did, did you, uh, select him, or w- were you just, did you just happen to be paired?

I just happened to be paired. I didn't know any of the, the Black male performers. I- Okay ... you know, I wasn't really on Twitter yet, so I- Okay

... didn't really know. And so, um, it was just a good luck of the draw for me because I really enjoy Prince. Okay. And so we're good friends now, so- Okay

... it was, it was a good pairing. Okay. Cool. Mm-hmm. Awesome. Awesome. Now as far as, uh, you know, the whole

thing about interracial, first of all, what do you even feel about the term interracial? It's, it's racist. You know, I think it's raci- like, my dad is half Black, and so I'm, like, mixed, you know? So-

Okay ... I don't, to, I don't know. Interracial, I mean, you can... I don't know. Um- Do you even feel it's necessary?

No. Like, 'cause there's some white guys in the industry, white performers- Mm-hmm ... who have, like, like, the same size penis as the

interracial guys. Mm-hmm. You know? And, like, do they use interracial for, like, Asian guys or something? No. So it's like, uh, just, like, the word itself is

just, I think it's just racist because, you know, like, they're both guys. There's the skin color that's different. And so- ... like, it pisses me off when some girls are like, "Oh, I don't, ... like, it pisses me off when some girls are like, "Oh, I don't,

I don't do interracial," or something like that, "Oh, but I'm not racist." It's like, well then, why won't you have sex with a Black guy on camera, but you'll have sex

with a white guy on camera? Like, what's the difference, you know? Okay. So I don't know. They, everyone has their own thing, I guess, but I just think it's unnecessary.

Okay. You know? Okay. Fair enough. Fair enough. Yeah. Um, and then as far as th- this is always an

interesting question. Um, for those that do, uh, what do you, what do you think about girls that say, "Well, I, I don't, but I'll do it for X dollars," or, "I'll do it for this much more money" or whatever

the case may be? Ah. Okay. What, what, what's your take on that? I can't, I can't really talk shit on that because I do, I do make a lot of money when I do interracial,

not 'cause I don't wanna do it, I want extra money, but because they're willing to give me extra money. Oh. So if a company is like, "Oh, I'll pay you this to do that," then I'll be like, "Okay, I'll take your money."

Well, there's a difference between offering and b- and asking. Yeah. Yeah. That's true. That's true. That, that, that's a big difference. But, but no, so, like-

I don't expect you to turn it down. No. You know, but, uh- If I can, if I can make more money, then I will. Right. But I don't necessarily have to.

Gotcha. You know? So I'm, I'm cool with white guys, Black guys- Good ... Black, uh-
