Porn star Melissa Jacobs reveals naked truth

"I got really, really lucky," she says.

A few months ago, Jacobs made a big decision. After three years of working as a solo model -- without men or women in the shots with her -- she decided to make hardcore, girl-on-girl videos for Penthouse. Her decision to expand her professional offerings opened many more doors, including the chance to make a lot more money.

Despite her success, Jacobs remains committed to Wisconsin and her relationship with her boyfriend of seven years while she enjoys the exhilarating ride through the porn industry.

"This is temporary, I know that," says Jacobs. "And I'm going for it because I'm having so much fun."

Recently, OnMilwaukee.com spent the morning chatting with Jacobs to find out more about her life as a porn star and as a regular girl.

OnMilwaukee.com: How is it possible for you to live in Hartford and work for Penthouse?

Melissa Jacobs: The majority of my work is in L.A., so I fly there once a month, and live there for two weeks. So I live here half time and in L.A. half time.

OMC: Do you see yourself moving to L.A.?

MJ: No, I really don't. My family is here. And people are more down-to-earth and, of course, the prices are better here.

OMC: You only shoot girl-on-girl or by yourself, right?

MJ: Yes. Actually, I just started doing girl-on-girl work a few months ago. Before that, I only did solo scenes.

OMC: What made you decide to start doing girl-on-girl work?

MJ: There's more work and more money available, so after I felt ready, I told my agent I was ready to change my limitations and started to do hardcore girl-on-girl.

OMC: What exactly does "hardcore" mean?

MJ: Hardcore means I'm engaging in real sex acts with women on camera.

OMC: You have your first girl-on-girl Penthouse films coming out soon, right?

MJ: Yes. I cannot tell you the names of the films yet, but I'm the lead in both. In one, I play a "Naughty Nurse Nancy"-type character. The other one is going to be called something like "Confessions of a Web Cam Girl."

OMC: Did you have to memorize lines?

MJ: Yeah, a few. I have six lines in my next film.

OMC: What did you do before you became an adult film star?

MJ: I worked in accounting for four years. But I always wanted to be a model; I just wasn't sure how to pursue it.

OMC: So how did you finally break into the scene?

MJ: I found a Web site called onemodelplace.com and it helped me to locate photographers in the Milwaukee area. I started out working for Lazer 103 as a Rock Girl and did some other promotional work. I found it to be so much fun, that I sent some photos to Playboy and Penthouse. Penthouse contacted me right away and flew me out to L.A. for a test shoot in May of 2005. In June of 2005, I shot the centerfold for Penthouse. It was my first real modeling job.

Wow. That was...a bunch of words strung together into sentences. Next, we'll all enjoy an upcoming OnMilwaukee.com interview with grass growing or paint drying...and, then, perhaps, an exclusive with little Billy in third grade arts and crafts class. Any of those would be more compelling than the "porn star" interview.

I'd rather read about a chipmunk. Humanity has gone too far.
