Holly Hendrix Discusses Star Showcase

LOS ANGELES—Holly Hendrix told AVN her first showcase is “the best work I’ve ever done in the industry.” “It’s definitely everything I’ve ever wanted in a movie,” Hendrix says. She recognized that Holly Hendrix’s Anal Experience, the new gonzo title from producer/director Jonni Darkko set for release Monday, was a unique opportunity so she seized it. “I definitely pushed myself harder in this movie than in any other,” Hendrix reveals. The 19-year-old starlet did all five of the scenes during an intense week of carnal acrobatics in July, bumping and grinding her way through enough footage for Darkko to fill a two-disc set that includes a blowbang, gangbang, bukkake and double anal among other things that amateurs may not want to try at home. It’s by far the most eventful project of Hendrix’s career that has included almost 40 titles—more than a dozen for Evil Angel producers alone—since making her porn debut in May 2015. Hendrix recalls she first worked for Darkko on March 8. “I know the exact date because I cannot forget that date,” she says. “I shot with Markus Dupree, my favorite male talent. That day was life changing for me. I met Jonni and he gave me this awesome Russian.” She made quite an impression in Fitness Sluts that day, holding Darkko’s interest until mid-summer when she got the call she really wanted. Hendrix says she actually was told “by an important figure in my life” that she wasn’t a big enough name for a showcase just before she received the news that Darkko was green-lighting her Anal Experience. And Darkko, who is in his 17th year behind the camera, welcomed her input at every step. He listened to her about “what I want to wear, who I wanted in it, how many guys in my blowbang” and more. “It turned out so perfect because I had an impact,” Hendrix says. “I was able to influence it, to get a feel for what I actually wanted.” To say Hendrix had a vision for the depravity that ensued is an understatement. For starters, she requested Spunk Lube enemas and Adriana Chechik. “I had never worked with her and never met her, but I told Jonni, ‘I need her. She is my idol.’ And he made it happen,” Hendrix says. Darkko adds, “I knew that would be dynamic, explosive. And it was.” But that threeway with Chechik and Markus Dupree was rivaled by her frenetic blowbang. Hendrix recalls taking on “I think six” guys who got way more than what they signed up for that afternoon.  “I was like covered in drool and craziness. I was so horny,” Hendrix confesses. “Every time we would cut I thought I just want to get fucked right now. When Jonni cut I just told him, ‘I’m fucking right now. I don’t care if you pay me more.’ “I’m pretty sure I fucked everybody.” Perhaps making that scene more remarkable was that she actually did a gangbang with four guys—her first ever—before her big blowbang day. She also did a double BJ in the movie, servicing Darkko along with another personal request that was granted—Amara Romani. In addition to Dupree, the male cast also included John Strong, Alex Jones, Brad Knight, Chad Alva, Eric John, Filthy Rich, Jacob Jones and Wrex Oliver. Hendrix, who was born in Indiana and raised in Savannah, Georgia, where she now resides, started her porn career in late May 2015 at the same time she was working as a bartender at Twin Peaks in Miami. The then-18-year-old did both jobs for a span. “Everyone knew I was Holly, a lot of the customers,” she jokes. Her decision to try porn was “spur of the moment.” “I needed quick money and I kept doing it and it increased my sex drive," Hendrix says. "Like right now, I feel like having sex. It’s definitely impacted me positively. I’ve had some loss of friends because some people just judge me and try to make me feel bad about it. Whatever, none of that matters.” Performing in adult movies “definitely boosted my confidence and made me feel so much better about myself,” Hendrix adds. “The porn industry has its ups and downs, but I am always treated like a queen on the set,” she says. “I get more compliments even when I’m not naked. My social skills are way better. Before I was really shy and really quiet.” She says she likes living in Georgia and coming to L.A. for scenes. “I take two months in L.A. and then come back for two months,” says Hendrix, who is represented by East Coast Talent. “I don’t want to be in L.A. just waiting on work all the time. When I’m going to come out all these companies grab me and I’m just booked.” Hendrix admits she was uninhibited before porn. “I definitely explored my sexuality really young. I fucked my professor in college when I was 16. I was bad in that kind of way. I would always fuck older guys when I was really young,” says the performer, who graduated high school two years early at 16. “I went to college for a year and a half,” she says. But now she's committed to the adult industry full time. “I don’t plan on leaving this industry at all. Whenever I do retire from performing I’m going to keep my career with the industry, have a toy line. I love this industry so much. I’ve never had shitty experiences,” Hendrix says. “I love my job.” To see the trailer for Hendrix's showcase, click here.
