Sometimes, the best things in life happen accidentally. Karina Valentina never set out to become an adult performer. She was just a sexually adventurous swinger who occasionally captured some of her randiest escapades on camera. When the footage gained attention, she realized she might have a new, exciting path in front of her. Though she modestly says she never expects to be an outright porn superstar, her success thus far bodes well for a long and illustrious career. Karina’s interview, like the star herself, comes with no filter!
HotMovies: Tell us about Karina. Where did you grow up? What was your childhood like? What did you do before porn?
Karina Valentina: I grew up in small town Texas in a very hard working, traditional Mexican-American Christian family. My childhood had its hardships and triumphs, just like so many others. We struggled with poverty, but there was no shortage of love. I worked, while being a straight A-student as far back as I can remember. I come from a very competitive family in sports. Brother is (still) a boxing champion and I thrived in softball, which I still continue to coach today. I earned a scholarship and went to school, where there was cut short with an unplanned pregnancy. Go figure! I still was able to achieve many goals despite the wonderful surprise. Before porn, I tried many things. I managed a few restaurants, thrived in sales and marketing, and even tried my hand at entrepreneurship. I enjoyed some awesome successes, but it never felt like something I wanted to do for the rest of my life, in the industry I was in.
When did you know you wanted to be a pornstar?
Never. Honestly, I consider myself the anti-trend, life-stylist who will probably never be a “pornstar.” I’ve met some incredibly interesting and beautiful people in this industry, but I’m just . . . different from it all. I’m a terrible actress, funny enough! Probably the last thing I should be outgoing about, but I know it also makes for amazing porn content. You’ll never see much “mattress-actressing,” as I like to call it, from me. Maybe as a parody or having fun with a set. I don’t do the typical bimbo approach, although I know some awesome chicks who make that work for them! However I am a goofball and I’m likely to screw up the script. BUT, the sex is always real and awesome with me! I love the challenges and the moans (and screams) are always genuine! I just think the fans deserve something exxxtraordinary and…different!
Have you always been sexually free and expressive?
Sexually free — yes. Expressive, not so much. I never thought I’d wear kink on my sleeve, let alone record and distribute it! I always thought of myself as a sexual deviant, always looking to explore the wild side. It definitely started in college. Yeah…I was THAT gal. Never kept a boyfriend for too long or had 4-5 boyfriends at the same time. Bouncing around with no concern for commitment, as silly as that sounds. In retrospect, I don’t think monogamy was ever in the plan for me. Lol! My neighbors and friends all know, and they actually embrace who I am, so I’m definitely comfortable in my own skin now. That took many years, but I never shied away from being a freak!
How did you get your start in the industry?
By accident! Business was great up until March 2020 during COVID and then in a flash, we had to start over. Paraphrasing of course. I had recorded a few fun adventures at the local swingers club in ATL. Just a few sexy times we kept on the hard drive! I definitely recognized the trend and we were stuck at home anyways . . . and figured why not! I released a gangbang with four frat brothers who I recruited from FetLife, where I have a massive organic following, and it had gained millions of views within weeks. It was a real experience, terrible lighting in the back room at a sex club, with no sense of production. We just, hit record and I can attribute everything I’ve earned in this industry, to that night! I figured if I took that energy and pumped it into a campaign, the sky would be the limit and so far, I’m definitely on to something!
Describe what your first time on set was like.
Yikes! Definitely nervous. Impatient and anxious with the long preparations and wait of a professional set, compared to what we always did. The makeup and paperwork taking so long. Anyone who knows me, knows I’m just ready to jump into the challenge. I just want to hear “ACTION!” Honestly it was cool, just different. When you’re used to controlling all the elements; from recruiting, testing and protocols, to the location and actual sex, yourself — giving that initiative to another team was tough. The scene turned out incredible so I cannot complain! I feel like I have the exxxperience necessary to make a movie go smooth and easy with me, now. Definitely lowering that bridge for productions as of recently.
Would you consider yourself more submissive or dominant in the bedroom?
100% submissive. I love to be choked, tied, cuffed and completely (consensually) taken advantage of. Toss me around in a group/GB or slap my ass and order me around…I’m a submissive through and through! It’s the stuff that gets me exxxcited!!
What was shooting Spice of Your Life for Red Bottom Productions like? How did you prepare for your role?
So there’s a much bigger picture to paint, in order to answer this question. We brought together four production companies and funded/hosted THEE villa in Miami during XBiz. The event was called “The Thrilla in the Villa!” My husband, who owns EMPowered Media Partners, and two of my closest and trusted friends; Diamond Trio Ent and xXxotiKAngelz Ent. helped us put the event into motion and Red Bottom was a wonderful addition to that team! Red Bottom Productions was suggested as an extension of the good word of my partners and he didn’t disappoint! We hosted them all under one roof, where we brought many amazing creators in the industry, during XBiz. We had four nominated male talents, and a half dozen nominated female talents from that XBiz card alone. My beautiful “TheHotwifeTour” gals, a few legends and a bunch of awesome independent creators. It’s quite an impressive list, if I do say so myself. A lot of work, nonetheless. We did about 50 scenes with over 40 talents over the course of 3 days. We banded together to prove it can be done, and it went incredibly well! Red Bottom, with his great character and conduct in house was really impressive. Preparing for my roles came naturally from hosting to performing, but that sentiment should be shared across the entire team, organized and supported by EMPowered Media Partners. Specifically to “Spice of Your Life,” was a collaboration of my amazing friends: Angel Minx, Alphonso Layz and Rome Major. We’re great friends outside of the studio so that helped a lot. I have nothing but love and respect for everyone who participated and I’m exxxcited to see what’s next for all of us! To me personally, I feel like executing that campaign made me stronger and more suitable for any opportunity that comes my way in this industry, moving forward.
Your performance in Hotwife Karina Valentina Gangbang is outstanding! What was working with Dreads Way like? What’s the key to filming a great gangbang scene?
This gangbang scene has to be one of my all time favorites so far! AZBullpen, out of Arizona hosted my first and only DVP gangbang to date, with AZpornstar, Jaxon Blaque, Chocolate Beast and Dreads Way. This team worked together so well and made the entire shoot so easy, fun and sexxxy! That crew, individually, continue to be some of my great friends to this day, with many opportunities on the horizon. The key to filming a great scene in general with ALWAYS be chemistry, in my opinion. I can fuck a stranger, of course, but to make a scene flow takes the little exxxtras. Getting to know each other and common grounds make the sex a little sweeter. Those guys are honest and professional, but also know how to treat a lady. They are the perfect combo for what I look to achieve in a scene: classy to trashy! All four of them have a bright future in this industry and I would give them AZBullPen a sound referral to any gal looking for a gangbang!
What’s your favorite after-sex snack?
Honestly I’m not much of a “snacker” because I’m always watching my diet and macro-ing. I’m good with just swallowing my reward from the sex but if I had to pick one…oatmeal with bananas is delicious.
Are there any stars or studios you’d like to work with in the future?
That’s a grocery list haha! I’ll go with Mazee the Goat since I met him at XBiz, Prince Yahshua and Big Tre (just missed them on a cancel), Isiah Maxwell, Damion Dayski, Johnny Sinns, Dredd and Chris Strokes, off the top of my head. There’s definitely a lot more but I’m a BIG fan of their work! There’s a bunch of great productions too but the ones that stick out are: Blacked/Blackedraw, Brazzers, BangBros, Deeper, Evil Angel, and Digital Playground. I know those are some of the big ones, but a gal can dream right?! I’d love to see how they handle me on set…I’ll keep working at it for sure and I find a ton of value in the smaller or upcoming sets too, like the ones I’ve recently worked with.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
In 5 years, I see myself painting a new path for sex workers. Honestly, with the amount of heat the adult industry is always under, I believe it’s my responsibility to shed some light of the positive side of adult content creation. A lot of the stuff that’s not shown and things that our biggest critics don’t understand, needs to be showcased. I was a responsible kinkster before the cameras were ever on, and I know I could represent adulting in a great manner. Being a vixen/swinger/lifestylist who always practiced sound protocols and a gal who makes all the phone calls is important. I’ve taken the long, slow, methodical approach and I see a lot of fools rushing in and making big mistakes. I’m here to help and share my exxxperiences with the world. Mind, body and spirit needs to be all in, especially to stay healthy in this industry. In 5 years time, I know my potential is immeasurable. Nobody can achieve greatness by themselves and it’s time we banded together for the wellness of our industry, while keeping it fresh and exxxciting!
If you came with a warning label, what would it read?
I’m a 100% Hispanic woman!! We come with the biggest warning label EVER! Lmao! I have no filter and I tell it like it is. Mix that with an endless sexual appetite and I’m sure that’s a recipe for a beautiful disaster!! In a good way (wink). But if you see the chancla come out…run!
It was a honor and a privilege to have this opportunity to share some of myself and my insights with Adult Empire. I really enjoyed the questions and I apologize if my answers were too lengthy. Honestly, I spent some time shortening them to what they are now for the sake of the reader.
