Skye Blue Interview
Eros Zine: You've had all sorts of adult entertainment jobs: strip club DJ, light tech, stripper, porn and fetish movie star, producer, director, executive producer, internet content creator, even a mainstream movie part! Which job was the most fun?
Skye Blue: The most "fun job" I've done in adult entertainment would be when I was dancing and doing movies with Summer Cummings. We worked so well together and the ways we differed in looks, performance and as women actually complimented us in our journey at that time. We were able to create all kinds of different scenarios in our shows on stage and scenes in movies without having to be scripted by anyone. We traveled the world together and had a chance to do what most people dream about, all while getting paid to do so. That was by far one of the funnest, memorable and most adventurous periods of my life.
Eros Zine: And how does it feel to be in the position of power?
Skye Blue: Sometimes scary, sometimes overwhelming, sometimes like the cat that swallowed the canary, but most of the time I'm grateful for the opportunities that I've had, good and bad, that have brought me where I am today.
Eros Zine: On a more personal note, you're known as a Domme. Does that help you in the adult entertainment industry?
Skye Blue: Yes and no, depending on the individual I'm dealing with and the situations that arise. Some people find that part of my personality attractive, while others may find it to be intimidating. It depends on how secure a person is with themselves as to how they interpret me.
Eros Zine: And as a domme, what sort of qualities do you look for in a sub?
Skye Blue: Willingness, adventure, secureness and the ability to know the difference between conscience decision and careless choice.
Eros Zine: Are you a lifestyler, 24/7? Or is it partly for show?
Skye Blue: I would consider myself a lifestyler to a certain degree. I wouldn't classify my expressions as "show." When I do perform or session, what I give of myself as a Domme comes from deep within. Always keeping a keen sense and respect of who, what and how you are doing.

Eros Zine: There seem to be more women in producer/director roles these days. Do you think it's having a positive effect on porn?
Skye Blue: I believe the rise of women producers and directors in porn definitely has a positive effect not only on porn, but women in general as well. Without sounding like a feminist, as a woman it's empowering to know that there are women out there expressing and sexually liberating themselves without feeling as though it should be something to hide in a brown paper bag.
Eros Zine: And do you believe there are more female porn consumers these days?
Skye Blue: Most definitely. More and more women are okay with letting themselves be okay with their own desires and sexual expression.
Eros Zine: You're actually an educated and degreed filmmaker. Do you think that has helped you be taken more seriously?
Skye Blue: Well, I'm not a degreed filmmaker, but have taken several independent courses in filmmaking. I think what's helped me be taken more seriously is my integrity, complete hands-on approach from beginning to end and dedication to each project.

Eros Zine: What was it like working for Playgirl Television?
Skye Blue: Creative, crazy, nerve racking, challenging, jet-setting, character building, heartbreaking and one of the "best jobs" I've ever had.
Eros Zine: You must've been able to really help them form their brand and give them direction.
Skye Blue: I think that we each developed our brand along the way. For years I had been accustomed to fulfilling man's fantasy. With Playgirl, the tables turned and I had to tap into the erogenous zones and sexual desire, expression and opinion from a women point of view, while still keeping it naughty enough for men to enjoy by themselves or with their wife, girlfriend, boyfriend, what have you. I also honed my skills as a "pornographer," if you will, and developed my brand even more so.
Eros Zine: You've had a lot of success with Platinum Blue, including many AVN Awards. Aside from industry recognition, what's been the sweetest part of your successes?
Skye Blue: The sweetest part of my success is always remembering my humble beginnings. Being grateful for all I've been provided with in my journeys, the lifestyle I've been afforded and most of all my strong family bond.

Eros Zine: Your newest project is Trashmouth Productions. Tell us about what you're working on with that?
Skye Blue: Since the DVD release of "The Naughty Show -- Bad Girls of Comedy," we've been busy putting together a live tour show, trying for a Vegas show room and hopefully a TV series.
Eros Zine: What are your hopes for the future of both Platinum Blue and Trashmouth?
Skye Blue: My hopes for both Platinum Blue and Trashmouth is, of course, success.
