I'd bumped into Karlie Simon at a party once before, and was dying to find out more about this blonde bombshell. This time, I met her at the ETO (Erotic Trade Only) show in Birmingham, in July, wearing nothing but a large red ribbon tied in a bow.

Hi Karlie, nice to meet you again.

Karlie: Hiya

How long have you been in porn now?

Not that long – it'll be a year in September. I got involved as soon as I could - once I'd turned 18. I'm 19 now.

Before that, what were you doing?.

I was a hairdresser, in Chelmsford, Essex.

What led up to you becoming a porn star?

I thought it would be a lot of fun. I didn't want a normal job, I wanted to do something exciting and different. And of course the money was better!

Yes. I'd been doing that since I was 14 as a Saturday girl, and then qualified when I left school. I don't think I'll be going back there though – it was good for a while but I needed to move out and be independent.

What did you think you'd do when you left school?

Hairdressing, although I'd always watched porn from a young age, but didn't really know anything about it. I used to have the girls round on a Saturday night, and we'd watch some porn before we went out, to get in the mood!

What do you like watching?

Threesomes are a favourite – girl-girl-boy. I like classy, well made stuff.

Any favourite studios or directors?

Yeah – there's a few that I like. I'd like to work with companies like Private and some of the American studios. My favourites to work with so far have been George at Doll Theatre, Bluebird, Evil Angel in Budapest, and also Killergram - they're really nice people to work with.

Now you're working on your web site?

My website has been taken down for the time being as part of my new contract with Bluebird and we`re currently scheduling new shoots for the re-launch.  My website has been taken down for the time being as part of my new contract with Bluebird and we`re currently scheduling new shoots for the re-launch.  

Which DVDs have you been on?

I know the Evil Angel one's been released – it's called Dressed To Fuck, I've got a few out by Killergram as well.

KS: Well the guys...Keiran Lee, Ben Kelly and Ian Tate. They're good to work with.  As for girls, I've loved working with Suzie Best, Carmel Moore and Elle Brook.

Sexually, what are your favourite fantasies?

I guess all my fantasies have been done at work. Off camera, I just like good, hot sex!

What else would you like to do?

Well, there is some talk of making a mainstream film next year with Bluebird and Norman J. Warren based on the Klockwerk Karlie series which I'm really excited about. Well, there is some talk of making a mainstream film next year with Bluebird and Norman J.

 Yes, I'm going to be having some plastic surgery soon! I have a consultation booked in October! Boobalicious!

We're sure Karlie's website will be back online soon. For now, why not check out all her movies on Strictly Broadband!
