Are you in a committed relationship? Is he/she in the biz?
I am a single-ass man currently.
Do you have an open relationship when it comes to your personal life?
I don’t currently have a primary relationship, and each relationship I have is different. It’s difficult to find someone who likes fast company and pushing into wilder relationships, but who is also laid back and intellectually curious, and with whom I ALSO have persistent sexual chemistry… Currently I see whoever I feel like seeing, though I do have a few women in my life who are very important to me sexually and otherwise — longterm friends and lovers.
How did you pick your stage name?
Richie is a name I’ve always liked and it was unrepresented in porn at the time. And I just like the way Calhoun sounds. Neither refers to anything in particular.
How old were you when you started in the adult entertainment business? And how did you get started?
I was 33, now I’m 35. After I decided I wanted to try it, I found the right people to talk to and I jumped in. I wasn’t sure it would be for me, but I knew it would be interesting. Turns out I love it and people like my work, so I feel lucky and grateful to be inside this fascinating industry as it rapidly evolves in crisis mode. All our recent challenges are pushing us to be better, and I just love this community. It is populated by so many brave (sexy) and wonderful people.
How long do you plan on staying in the biz?
I plan to be involved with the adult industry in one way or another for the rest of my life.
Do you have a backup plan in the event that the biz doesn’t work the way you’d like?
I will always write, I will always be involved in creative projects. But as I said, I’ll continue to be involved in adult one way or another.
Do you have any other hidden talents? What are they?
My hidden talents are so well-hidden even I can’t find them!
Are you a sports fan? What are your favorite teams?
Not a sports fan. I pick a team for arbitrary reasons whenever I find myself watching sports.
If you could be any superhero, which one would you be and why?
I’d be Dr. Manhattan from Watchmen I guess. He’s all-powerful and immortal, so duh. If that level of understanding is lonely, I’ll still take it.
Would you ever fuck or make out with a fan?
Sure I would. It’s important to me to protect my scene partners from my outside choices, but I have my fun. Working takes care of maybe half my sexual appetite.
( This is an amazing answer….. very responsible and appreciative of his costars shows us fans the caliber of man Richie is!!! )
What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear these words:
Moist
Long
Hot
Heavy
Fast
I’ll pass on this one.
Where are you originally from?
I’m from a very rural part of the Midwest
Do you live in LA or do you reside elsewhere?
I live in Los Angeles, where I’ve spent more than half my life.
If you could have any career outside of the industry what would it be?
Treasure hunter / film director / writer
What’s the weirdest thing a fan has ever said or done to you?
Oh, lots of weird twitter comments that I enjoy. I like when i get tweeted in other languages and I get to find out what they’re saying with an online translator.
What’s your favorite genre to perform in? Feature, gonzo, parody, BDSM or PD?
I like a nice gonzo scene with no story to it, where it’s just the straight dope and the director just says “Go.” I think that’s where you get the best scenes, and you can see that in the scenes that win awards every year. Second would be serious features with decent stories worth portraying. But there’s the sex scene, and then there’s the overall experience of filming. So, often a parody will be a lot of fun to shoot, but the sex might be cheesy or have confining aspects to the actual sex scene like uncomfortable costumes / sets, long late hours, etc. But as far as the sex scene goes, I think most talent prefer to be set free to find a spontaneous natural dynamic.
What’s your favorite food and drink of choice?
I eat a lot of street tacos, huaraches, burritos living in Echo Park. I cook a lot of meat and vegetables at home. I love Korean food, and I drink a lot of ice water, whisky, coffee, kombucha. I try to eat my kale, spinach, broccoli, garlic, onions, beets, etc. whether I feel like it or not.
What’s your favorite color?
I like color combinations more than I like colors. A canary yellow dress is nice, but I can really see it when Ana Foxx is wearing it against her beautiful, dark skin.
What is your favorite part of a woman’s body?
I’ll give you ten — teeth (I’m a fan of teeth, great teeth, weird teeth, tiny teeth), engaging eyes, skin (i love an interesting complexion), necks, interesting noses, pretty pussies, thighs, breasts, feet, pelvic bones.
Favorite television show?
Adventure Time, Always Sunny in Philadephia. I like light TV and heavy films.
Favorite movie?
The Second Matrix (I know everyone hates it), John Carpenter’s The Thing, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, The Third Man, Lynch’s Inland Empire, The Incredibles, also Vanilla Sky is a compelling deconstruction of male narcissism for dudes.
Favorite book and what are you reading now?
I’m reading a book on Feminist Semiotics, I like Nicholas Nassim Taleb and other math / probability stuff, I like old Vedanta books like Vasistha’s Yoga, and I like psychology / buddhist writing.
Favorite band or music?
My Bloody Valentine, Sonic Youth, Wu Tang, Tupac, Steely Dan, Devin tha Dude, Ghostface, Guided by Voices and Bob Pollard, Bob Dylan, Cody Chesnutt, Daft Punk, lots of stuff.
Do you sing in the shower and if you do what is it that you sing?
I hum a lot. Maybe I burst into song occasionally, whatever’s in my head.
When doing a scene is there a trick you do to keep yourself from coming too soon?
The more into a scene I am, the easier it is to keep going because why would I want to stop? I mean, what’s the difference, I’ll fuck for an intense hour in my private life with maybe a break in there… If it’s an artificial environment and I don’t feel engaged, I dunno, I manage. You learn your body and your sexual transmission system onscreen and in your private life through trial and error.
If they were casting a new parody of any television show or movie what character would be your dream part to play? And would you have someone in mind that would complete a perfect cast?
Not off the top of my head, I like playing all kinds of characters, but I think it would be great to do Ernest Goes to Camp with Evan Stone as Ernest. I also think it would be double-back funny to do a parody elaboration of SNL’s The Californians. I think I remember Steven St. Croix bringing that up. Hey Steven, we should do that!
What person in the biz that you have never worked with before would you like to do a scene with?
TONS! Damn, should I say? I’d have to go through my twitter stream… There are so many amazing women, but you never know who you’ll have real chemistry with until you work together. And I’ve had the privilege of working with so many incredible women. Sex is a wonderful way to look at someone and try to really see them. Every woman is beautiful when you really look at her, so that’s what I do. But people are also such a mystery, it’s like staring at someone’s true self, but you’re also staring right into the mystery of “who is this person?” which is one of the divine experiences of life, especially in such an intimate context.
When is your birthday?
I’m a Capricorn
Do you have a wishlist?
I set one up but i haven’t published it. It’s mostly books. I’ll get it online and send you a link.
Do you have merchandise (DVDs-Photos) for sale for fans or is there a way to get a photo or something autographed for your fans for those who cannot make the cons?
Of course, you can mail your panties to Richie Calhoun ℅ 101 Modeling. I haven’t really gotten into selling my own material yet.
What appearances are you scheduled to appear at in the near future?
AVN of course! I’ve been talking to a few people about making it to other events.
Do you have a contact address for fans to send you presents and letters of appreciation?
The 101 Modeling office is perfect. I stop by every week or so to say yo to the gang over there.
Is there anything else you want to let your fans know about what’s going on in your life right now?
Not in particular, but I’m always happy to answer questions
