THE INTERVIEW
 

CelebFakirs.com: Why the Faking Alias?
Anonymity and a chance to be Silent Bob - I was at filmschool when clerks first came out  


CelebFakirs.com: How did you find out celebrity faking existed?
The net. Many years ago, I stumbled on a few primitive sites with mostly crappy piccies. Then i found some good ones and hunted to find as much free stuff as i could. I did use newsgroups briefly but was put off by the lack of organisation and quality - it was a huge mess. I kinda took a back seat for quite a while, aside from the odd freebie i could find, only finding the strip just at it closed down last year.


CelebFakirs.com: What was the first fake you ever saw and who faked it?
The one i remember was by Trillian, a pic of gwnyth paltrow lying on a bed naked . I thought/hoped it was real for the longest time. I remember Fredd's stuff being amongst the first to impress also.


CelebFakirs.com: What made you get into faking?
The horn factor. Naked celeb flesh takes some beating. That was purely to collect and fantasize to of course. Making them was a different story. Having made many many short films at a vast expense and even some moderate success, the frustration of not being able to make more, mainly due to lack of funding opportunites in britain led me up a dead end. Having a go at making fakes came at a time when that was at a zenith and professionally my work had dried up - It was a craving to flex my creative muscles with something different, very cheap and of course pervy. I hadnt drawn or painted traditionally for many years, mainly because i went into the digital editing world - and this was a way of combining both - i was astonished at the power and possibilities of photoshop.


CelebFakirs.com: Who was the lucky celeb who was first faked by yourself?
For some bizarre reason i started with the near impossible-to-do-well - a combo of friends sweetheart Jen A and hot newcomer (at the time) L Lohan

CelebFakirs.com: When did you do you're first fake?
I made it around June last year (2005)


CelebFakirs.com: Who has been the biggest influence in you're faking career to date?
oooh thats a dooozy, tough question. I would say New Fake City. It is the first forum ive ever been involved in, and as a community i was so surprised and blown away.

Lots of people have influenced me, from advising, to encouraging to being breathtakingly inspiring. Overall to name one person, i would say DocHeinz, because i think when i started last summer, i learned the most about techniques and photoshop from him.

I know i wouldn't have given faking much of my time though without folk like bladey, owl, proto, holden, hypo and the many cool peeps of nfc in general egging me on. Its a great place to learn.


CelebFakirs.com: Who would you consider to be the best fakir around at the moment?
Proto


CelebFakirs.com: Who would you consider to be the best fakir of all time?
see above  


CelebFakirs.com: And for the future, do you see any fresh faces that you think will go on to be the best one day?
I sure hope so. I think places like NFC are attracting more and more people to the delights of both a community and naked celeb flesh.  With the right tutors and enough time and motivation, i think lots of people have the potential to be world class.


CelebFakirs.com: What do you consider to be you're best fake to date?
hmm another tricky one. The one im most proud of would be this, but it isnt by far the most erotic one ive made.

CelebFakirs.com: What has been the highlight of you're career so far?
gosh. erm. biggest ego trip was winning the MVP in the second kings comp. That was a 'dance around the room with your shirt over your head' moment. Personally though, the highlight has been getting to know so many amazing talents. And Hypo.


CelebFakirs.com: Why the alter-ego choice?
He's cool, he's silent, he loves star wars and he makes films. Nuff said?


CelebFakirs.com: If you could marry any celeb who would it be?
well Natalie P had her chance back in 96.. now shes too late!


CelebFakirs.com: And who would be you're bit on the side?
Jennifer Aniston still has a soft spot in my heart. Thats what growing up with Friends does for ya. Not that kids today would understand that. Having said that, any lady with beauty, talent and brains would still catch my eye. Ok, scrap the brains bit. And the talent bit. Im not fussy.


CelebFakirs.com: Do you have funny stories to tell us?
How about the fact i shared a dooby with GL at a certain wrap party?


CelebFakirs.com: Where do you see yourself in 5, 10 years time?
Secure, happy and with a family i love. As for faking... who knows.


CelebFakirs.com: Where do you see the faking world being in 5, 10 years time?
Video stuff i imagine may take off. Its even concievable that faking will enter the mainstream and one day be popular and even desired by the rich and famous. What? Hey, im an optimist...


CelebFakirs.com: Finally.... Celebrity fakes, art or porn?
ooh.. it can be both. Nude paintings or life drawings are not considered porn, but slapping a celebs head on it has always thrown it into the wank arena and thats still where the vast majority of it lies. Most definately arty porn.
