and teaching medical-assistant classes at
the tech-school level before cutbacks led her
to seek other income sources and “I stumbled on to
webcamming.”
Once that happened, she found out that “I enjoyed
showing off. I’m a sexual person; porn fits perfectly.”
Fyre went to conventions to get information and
network, and “the more I learned, the more I liked it.”
She started with solo and girl/girl performing, and then
moved on to b/g: “I love it.”
She also moved from New Jersey to Los Angeles. “This

is where they make it, so I’m here.”
“The big difference between webcamming and video scenes,
I’ve found, is that in webcamming they want you to look at the
camera. They want to look at you. In video they don’t want you to
look at the camera, they want you to look at your partner.”
When asked what she likes about the industry, she says, “Getting
to have sex with really attractive great people.” For the future, she
says, “I would love to work for Kink.com. I have done my own content
but I’ve never been booked for bondage. I also can’t wait to work with
Jessy Jones. He’s, like, my favorite male performer.”
As far as words to live by, Fyre cites gonzo journalist Hunter S.
Thompson: “Life is not about arriving to your grave safely in a well-
preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting,
‘Holy shit, what a ride!’”
