Roger T. Pipe
What were you like growing up? Outgoing? Shy? Trouble?
Julie Rage
Horribly shy, I was a total wallflower!
Roger T. Pipe
Wow, that's pretty hard to believe. When did you start having sex?
Julie Rage
The first time I explored with a women when I was a minor. My first time with a man, was a few years later. In a monogamouse relationship. I told you, I was shy back then.
Roger T. Pipe
A far cry from how you are now.
Julie Rage
Hey, I'm making up for lost time.
Roger T. Pipe
So you grew up in OC, but you live in LA now?
Julie Rage
Yes
Roger T. Pipe
When did you make the move to LA?
Julie Rage
I moved back when I got in the biz. The drive was just too much for me. Commuting sucks!
Roger T. Pipe
So you made the move to do movies or was it modeling first?
Julie Rage
I went to see Jim South with the intention of doing mags, but he liked my look and before I knew it, I was invited to do a movie with Alex Sanders. I decided to give it a try and found that I liked it better than mags.
Roger T. Pipe
Do the folks back home know what you do?
Julie Rage
Yes. My mother knows and now she can't watch Spice or Playboy any more.
Roger T. Pipe
Why is that?
Julie Rage
She loves me, I'm her baby.
Roger T. Pipe

Julie Rage
I was in the Army, a combat-medic.
Roger T. Pipe
When did you start in videos?
Julie Rage
December of 1995
Roger T. Pipe
What was the first movie you were in?
Julie Rage
Viewpoint by Vivid.
Roger T. Pipe
And that was with Alex Sanders?

Julie Rage
Michael J Cox.
Roger T. Pipe
How was it? Were you nervous?
Julie Rage
Oh yeah, I was horribly nervous.
Roger T. Pipe
How many have you done in your two and a half years in the biz?
Julie Rage
Over 200.
Roger T. Pipe
200 movies in two and a half years?
Julie Rage
Well, that's if you include compilations.
Roger T. Pipe
Still, you've been a busy young lady. Any that you are particularly proud of? Ones readers should watch out for?
Julie Rage
There are a few I am really proud of. Impact, the Craving, News Action, the Box, and my last, "THUNDER-PUSSY"
Roger T. Pipe
Is that one out yet?
Julie Rage
Not yet, but it will be soon.
Roger T. Pipe
And who did that one?
Julie Rage
Greg shot it for Elegant Angel. It's a gonzo tape and I'm really proud of the way it came out. Plus, it's my last video.
Roger T. Pipe
Any favorite males to work with?
Julie Rage
Herschell Savage is one of my faves.
Roger T. Pipe
Females?
Julie Rage
Ohh, there are so many. Tyce Bune and Sid Duece.
Roger T. Pipe
Anyone you haven't worked with yet, but want to?
Julie Rage
Yes, I always wanted to work with Anna Malle.
Roger T. Pipe
Anyone else, maybe a reviewer or two?
Julie Rage
You wish.
Roger T. Pipe
OK. How tall are you?
Julie Rage
5-5 and if you ask me my weight I will have to kick your ass.
Roger T. Pipe
What are your measurements?
Julie Rage
36d-22-32
Roger T. Pipe
Do you watch your own movies?
Julie Rage
Yes, but mostly just the dialogue.
Roger T. Pipe
What do you think of the adult movie business?
Julie Rage
The biz has been very good to me, it was a very positive experience for me on a sexual level I was able to live out many of my fantasies and make some good money. And the bonus was I met Greg! I do believe that some of the people are not right for this biz though because they are too young or they take this "star" thing too seriously, or they don't plan for when they won't be able to do this anymore.If a performer has a good level head this can be a very positive experience.
Roger T. Pipe
Do people recognize you now from your movies?
Julie Rage
Yes, it's quite flattering. Due to the hard edged roles I usually play they expect to see me like that. They are pleasantly suprised to find me happy and very communicative.
Roger T. Pipe
Well, that's a lot better than having you bite thier heads off.
Julie Rage
I save that for reviewers who piss me off or keep trying to look up my skirt while they interview me.
Roger T. Pipe
I'll keep that in mind. Any favorite thing to do on camera?
Julie Rage
Acting, but i know you want to hear the sex aspects. I love cumming.
Roger T. Pipe
Is there anything you won't do on camera?
Julie Rage
Oh yeah. I won't do anal on a guy.
Roger T. Pipe
How does your on screen personality reflect or differ from your real life?
Julie Rage
It's the total opposite. I'm very down to earth in my personal life. Not nearly as over the top as my characters often are.
Roger T. Pipe
That's kind of hard to believe. You are so agressive sexually on camera.
Julie Rage
Oh, sexually? That's pretty much the same. Exactly the same according to Greg.
Roger T. Pipe
Any unfulfilled fantasies?
Julie Rage
Only one.
Roger T. Pipe
Well, don't keep me in suspense, what is it?
Julie Rage
I want a 101 girls on me at once.
Roger T. Pipe
I'm sure the line of volunteers would be a mile long. OK, I hear you have decided to call it quits and retire from the business. Is this true?
Julie Rage
Yes, it's true.
Roger T. Pipe
What was your final movie?
Julie Rage
Greg Steel's "THUNDER-PUSSY" for elegant angel.
Roger T. Pipe
What prompted this move?
Julie Rage
While I was on the road in April and May 3 people in the industry tested positive for HIV. One was someone that I asked to work with on Thunder-Pussy, but they were not avalible that day.
Roger T. Pipe
That has to be a little scary.
Julie Rage
Tell me about it. Thank god for looking out for me. I ended up working with Tice that day. I took some time and though about the seriousness of what was happening. Even if I did all my scenes with a condom there would still be a risk. There would still be oral sex, and you can get HIV from oral even with a girl. I asked myself is it worth it? At this point in my life, it's just too big a risk for me to take. I have a lot to be happy about and live for, and I want to be around for a lot of years to enjoy what I have.
Roger T. Pipe
There has been a move towards more condoms, even mandatory condoms in adult films.
Julie Rage
If the fans really care about the performers they will support our choice to live by only buying tapes that practice safe sex. Ask your self is the fantsay of seeing non condom scenes worth the performers dying?
Roger T. Pipe
What do you have planned now that you are out from in front of the camera?
Julie Rage
I'm going to feature dance as long as I can. I love dancing and meeting the fans. After that I'm going to go back to college for my medical degree.
Roger T. Pipe
We've touched on it a bit, but what are your feelings on the HIV situation in the industry?
Julie Rage
It was bound to happen with all of the very unsafe sex activity (anal, fletching, facial pop shots). The sad part is we don't get control of it the health department will shut us down and adult will go under ground. The results will make it taboo again to watch porno...
Roger T. Pipe
Do you think the industry is doing enough to protect and educate talent?
Julie Rage
No, this is not the first or second time HIV has struck. The companies and performers say we are going condom only for a week or two, there it's back to business as usual until HIV strikes again. If the performers would stick together and make a stand to practice only safe sex, things might improve but they won't because this person or that person is offered x amount to do a scene without a condom.
Roger T. Pipe
Do you have a fan club? Web site? How can fans get a hold of you?
Julie Rage
Snail mail DOM Corp. PO Box 9787 Marina Del Rey, CA 90295
Roger T. Pipe
Any upcoming dance dates?
Julie Rage
June 22 through the 27 I'll be at Charlie's Dream House in Philidelphia. July 3rd and 4th I'll be in Long Island doing a signing. Then I'll hit Canada. Watch your news paper I'll be near you soon.
Roger T. Pipe
Just make sure you get to SoCal soon will ya?
Julie Rage
Eventually.
Roger T. Pipe
What are your career goals now?
Julie Rage
Dance my ass off!!!
Roger T. Pipe
OK, let's do the template questions. What are your outside interests?
Julie Rage
I love to read vamp books, watch documenties, go dancing, see movies, and I dig Dean Koontz books.
Roger T. Pipe
What kind of music do you listen to?
Julie Rage
Rock, Industial, Techno, Jaz, Blues so long as it's good.
Roger T. Pipe
Do you have a boyfriend/husband?
Julie Rage
I'm married to Greg Steel.
Roger T. Pipe
What do you look for in a man/woman?
Julie Rage
I know you've heard this before, but I want someone who is loyal, gentle kindhearted, funny and down to earth. Oh yea and he must love good food and have a twisted sense of sexuality.
Roger T. Pipe
Anything you would like to add/say to the fans?
Julie Rage
If the fans would like to continue to see good adult movies, please support safe sex movies. The sad reality is that performers can die from non-safe sexual acts. That is why I have retired. I want to live a nice long life. I will miss all of the good friends I've made...
Roger T. Pipe
Thank you Julie for an honest interview. You've given us a lot to think over.
Julie Rage
Thanks Rog, anytime.
