Kendra Jade interview at XXX Spice Girls
|
From XSITE Magazine. August 20th, 2004 .
XSITE: Where were you born?
Kendra Jade: North Hampton, Massachusetts''
XSITE: What is your ethnic background?
Kendra Jade: My father is Puerto Rican and my mother is Italian.
XSITE: What do your friends call you?
Kendra Jade: It’s really funny cuz most of my friends call me The Kenj, which I think sounds somewhat like a disease of some sort. Either that or they call me KJ.
XSITE: Do you speak any other languages than English having a puertorican/Italian background?
Kendra Jade: I don’t. I speak English. That’s about it. I understand a little Spanish but that’s all.
XSITE: Favorite Food?
Kendra Jade: Spaghetti. Mom’s homemade spaghetti.
XSITE: Sports?
Kendra Jade: Eh. I’m not a big sports person but I live with two guys and they always watch sports so they always have ESPN on, and it makes me insane. I scream, cry, and curse cuz I hate it.
XSITE: Animals? Do you have any?
Kendra Jade: Dogs. I have three dogs. A golden retriever, a rotwieler, and a yorkie?
XSITE: No cats? Don’t like’em?
Kendra Jade: I love cats but my roommates don’t. I used to have a lot cats but not any more.
XSITE: You aren’t gonna be one of those old catladies are you?
Kendra Jade: I probably will be.
XSITE: And how long have you been in? About 8 years, right?
Kendra Jade: Yeah, well, its been 7 years.
XSITE: What was your first film?
Kendra Jade: It was called Too Hot For Porn.
XSITE: What was that like? The experience? Wre you nervous, excited? Was it boring or did it stink altogether?
Kendra Jade: Yeah it was terrible. You know, I thought that it would be so easy, but it’s really not. You have a bunch of people in the room with lights and it’s not fun.
XSITE: It got easier though?
Kendra Jade: No, I wouldn’t say it ever got easier. No.
XSITE: You did it all out of revenge, but have you always been a real sexual person?
Kendra Jade: Well, I think you have to be to be in this business. You have to be an exhibitionist.
XSITE: I heard on an interview that you had like a tattoo at thirteen and a nose ring…?
Kendra Jade: Yeah I was kinda of the wild child of my family and pissed a lot of people off.
XSITE: Rebel? Black Sheep?
Kendra Jade: Pretty Much.
XSITE: What has been your most compromising position, I mean situation in your own life or your business?
Kendra Jade: Well, I think that the hardest think for me is that such a big part of me wants to be a normal person and the rest of me wants to be a deviant so I find myself in this tug of war with myself between good and evil and most time evil wins.
XSITE: Have you ever taken anything from a script into your own life or vice versa?
W
Kendra Jade: ell, there are things that I think naturally happen that you should try, and I think you should try everything once, so it happens. Especially when you are with someone for a certain amount of time, you wanna eventually try everything. So there is a fair share of things that happen in both.
XSITE: Ok now, you hold the record for what?
Kendra Jade: (Laughing) For most anal sex in one day but I’m not sure that I hold the record anymore, to be honest. For all I know, someone could have beaten me by now, but I’m not sure. I don’t really keep up with that?
XSITE: Do you remember when that was?
Kendra Jade: No fucking idea!
XSITE: Were you tired?
Kendra Jade: Yes, and drunk!
XSITE: Tequila? That’s sounds like a tequila job.
Kendra Jade: No but I probably would have been better off with tequila.
XSITE: Do you like photo shoots, all the traveling and everything that comes with it? I know it is ‘work’ for you and what not?
Kendra Jade: Yeah, but at first I think I enjoyed it more than I do now but I think I’m so accustomed to it now. And people don’t realize how much work actually goes into that stuff. Man, it’s hard to hold a position for a long time. Not that I’m complaining cuz I do very well with that sort of thing, but people think that it’s easy. When you shoot for popular photographers like Earl Miller, he will tell you, ‘Stay in that position. Don’t move. Stay there, stay there!” and then go grab himself a sandwich. Then he comes back after you’ve been in this back-arced position forever and say “You moved! We have to start again.”
XSITE: So for a young actor/actress looking to get into the business, what advice would you give?
Kendra Jade: Um…be prepared for the consequences of your actions. Funny that you asked that. Yesterday I had an experience with someone that I really like a whole bunch who was told that it was probably not in their best interest to hang out with me. And that is kind of hard for me because the things that you do when you are 19 or 20 years old…they live on. They stay with you for along time and you have to remember that when you try to pursue other things, people aren’t so willing to open the doors for ya’. But if you are gonna do it, go all the way with it!
XSITE: How many surgeries have you had?
Kendra Jade: I had my nose and my boobs done. And then I had them redone so I don’t know if that counts. It’s the same surgery, but twice.
XSITE: What do you think the prettiest thing about The Kenj is?
Kendra Jade: Um…I don’t know…it’s a cheesy answer but I’d have to say my heart above all else. It’s cheesy but it’s true.
XSITE: Your favorite place to travel to? You travel a lot.
Kendra Jade: I thought I would enjoy Florida cuz it seemed like the spot to go, but it was so hot and humid, and yukky that I was just like’ “Why did I have to come here?” My favorite place togo is my hometown in Massachusetts or New York. I get a really good reception there so I love to go there. I would say my favorite destination is New York City.
XSITE: So the heat has been killing you down here?
Kendra Jade: Yea, the heat is so much hotter than I can bear and I live in California, but this is fuckin’ hot!
XSITE: What is your style of man?
Kendra Jade: Young, cute, pretty-boy…well, to be honest, I don’t really have a type cuz I’ve dated every type of guy you can imagine. The guy I just broke up with after three years is a scrawny, little, dorky Jewish boy so there isn’t really any specific type. I would say a little mix of Colin Farrel-Johnny Knoxville/Justin Timberlake. A little bit of good boy/bad boy. Gotta have a little bit of both.
XSITE: So what is the best way to approach you? Just to get a date with you?
Kendra Jade: You know, here’s the funny part…I don’t like the guys that approach me. I want the guy that is avoiding me an putting up a little bit of a chase. I want the guy who is sitting in the corner of the room acting like he doesn’t even know I am there. For ever ten guys that are trying to talk to me, I like the one that is sitting over there like, “Fuck her.”
XSITE: Are there any rap/rockstars that you would sleep with?
Kendra Jade: Hmmm…maybe I have.
XSITE: That you haven’t yet.
Kendra Jade: Oh! That I haven’t yet…that’s tough. I’m more into the actor thing. I would totally have sex with Johnny Knoxville in a second.
XSITE: So who wouldn’t you sleep with…rockstar, actor…just no way.
Kendra Jade: I don’t like to rule anybody out until I’ve met them.
XSITE: Cuz you \never knkow, it might happen.
Kendra Jade: Right, I could be like ,”Fuck them! And then three days later…there I am. But I don’t like to rule them out until have a conversation and stuff, but I would say that it is fairly safe to assume that I would never sleep with the lead singer of Creed, Scott Bat. Probably not with him.
XSITE: Worst date?
Kendra Jade: My first date ever was probably my worst. I spilled nachos all over myself and him at the movie theater…I was twelve. That was a very traumatic experience.
XSITE: Gonna have kids?
Kendra Jade: I wanna adopt them. I’d like to have my own but I’m not sure. I wanna have a bunch of kids, but probably adopt. I think there are so many kids out there who need a strong supportinve person in their life so why would I bring more into this world? I’d rather take care of the ones already out there.
XSITE: What do you do to get away from your life?
Kendra Jade: I go into the bathtub, turn up the music really loud, light a bunch of candles and let my thoughts disappear.
XSITE: Lastly, what makes The Kenj happiest?
Kendra Jade: Happiest? My two sisters and my dogs. They light up my life.
