“When I got in the business, the male
performers were a fraternity and they
didn’t make it easy on you.”
—Seth Gamble
“I’m very blessed with my work I actually get—not every male talent is in my
position. So, I feel very honored and blessed that I got the kind of work and the
amount of shoots I got for the first year. It was like the opening scenes of Harry Potter,
everything’s like all brand-new and so magical and like crazy? That’s definitely how
the first year is every time you walk on the set. Then, year two and three you start
honing your craft really and start bringing it, in learning who you are as a talent,”
Ambrose said.
Another newcomer, Ken Feels, plays Jake Python. With two years of scenes under
his belt, Feels entered the industry at 40, as a sex education influencer who was
creating instructional adult content for his social media platform, “All the Feels.”
“It’s been super fulfilling, really rewarding, incredibly fun,” Feels said of his
professional experience so far. “I love it. I love it—and the people are incredible.
Yeah, it really is like a great community and collection of people. Almost everyone’s
super-nice and warm and welcoming and fun and cool and hot.”
Another strong male character, Rick Strokes, is played by multi-awarded performer-
director Michael Vegas. With his naturally curly hair ironed flat, he was dressed in a
monogramed black satin bathrobe, briefs, aviator glasses, and cowboy boots, as
he paced up and down the driveway of the house for a dialogue scene and yelled,
“Boo-yah!” repeatedly, at the end of multiple takes. Sinatra Monroe, who plays Red
in the movie, ran up and down the driveway in platforms, walking into the scene to
say one line.
Vegas enjoyed bringing a big dose of flamboyant Alpha-male energy to the role of
Strokes.
“This character was actually still around when I joined adult films,” Vegas said,
“and I did get to meet him in person, and I have worked alongside him. So, like, I
definitely know who I am when I’m doing the role. It’s so fun. It’s so fun to get to be
that person. What a character!”
“I love being a performer for a day. I love being a performer for a week,” Vegas
continued emphatically. “I absolutely love being in front of camera and performing.
It’s why I came here. I love showing off on camera. I love doing scenes with partners.
I love having sex on camera, and I love making real movies and acting.”
Playing opposite such a strong masculine presence, the movie’s roster of actresses
is equally impressive. Jennifer White is the female lead in the role of Lotta, who is
based on a mash-up of the ‘90’s top female contract stars. Like in real life for White
and Gamble, Lotta is good friends with Steve though they have sex at work.
