With her mischievous eyes, slender body, and long wavy hair, Latina transsexual Nicole Montero has become a familiar, friendly face on the adult Web. But don’t let her demeanor fool you: Montero is a serious – albeit fun-loving – professional. Born in Chile, she left university to focus all of her energies on the adult industry. Today, she runs www.latinatranny.com, www.tsladies.com and www.shemalechix.com, “plus some other free sites and a shemale TGP.”YNOT: Why did you choose to get into the adult industry?

Montero: I didn’t choose it, actually. I was studying at university when I suddenly started making pics for fun, then posted a free website on a free-hosting site in my spare time. Soon the site started to get thousands of visits and became pretty popular. After about two years, I started
selling some pics to other websites (back in Y2K approximately) and that is how it happened

YNOT: What is it you like about it?

Montero: The fun; the chance to meet other people in the industry is always fun. The porn. My friends tell me all the time I am sick about porn; I enjoy it too much. Indeed I enjoy watching porn more than sex (she laughs)! And the money, of course, at the end of it.

YNOT: What don’t you like about the adult industry and how would you like to see
it changed?

Montero: I don’t like big sponsors with loads of crappy websites paying too much money to affiliates. I am not jealous; I just think it is killing the business. Paying members end up at crappy paysites, they get disappointed and they think all the websites out there are shit when they are not.

YNOT: What makes your content stand out from the crowd?

Montero: My approach is to be myself and to interact with the camera and with the people behind the computer. Apart from that I do shoots at events, shows, beauty pageants (members love it), parties and stuff.

YNOT: What’s the best and worst experiences you’ve had since being in the adult industry?

Montero: My best experience was to meet Brazilian porn stars that I always admired in the past — and I finally work with all of them. I don’t admire them anymore! The worst are the fans – the “groupies” – who make your life harder and cause problems with privacy and stuff. Poor Brooke Shields!

YNOT: What do you consider to be the sexiest thing about you?

Montero: Oohh! Well, first of all I don’t feel sexy at all, I always like to just be me. But if I have to answer, well, I think I am just too hot.

YNOT: What would you have to achieve in the industry to consider yourself a complete success?

Montero: To consider myself a complete success – I think I would need years for that — I would like to have a big company who delivers porn worldwide. Apart from the internet, a
DVD company, dolls, magazines, etc., etc…

YNOT: Finally, what sexual experience would you still like to experience that you haven’t yet?

Montero: A gangbang, totally; but sober please. I have been in some 3somes but I never participated sexually on it. Usually I’ve been too high or too drunk or too tired, so there’s only been only kisses and some softcore shit.
