Do
you believe in UFOs?
Excuse
me?
Do
you believe in UFOs?
In
what?
UFOs.
You know, flying spaceships.
"Yoofos"
you mean. Actually, no. To be honest, no.
You've
never seen one?
I've
seen one on TV. I did a space movie. (both laughing) But I don't
believe in that.
(still
laughing) What was the name of the space movie?
It's
called "Galaxy Vixens."
"Galaxy
Vixens"?! Cool. It's not on your résumé though.
It's
not yet because it's not released.
You
were the centerfold of the May 1993 "Playboy," correct? A
copy of that magazine in good condition is going for 95 cents right
now on Amazon.com.
(gasps)
It's on my web site for $35!
Is
it really?! (pause) $35?!!
Yeah!
On my Marketplace, autographed.
Oh,
this one isn't autographed. That'll do it.
So
you can order just one magazine or you can order as many as you want?
This
is just one. Someone at home has a copy and they want to sell it to
the highest bidder. At the same time Pee Wee Herman has one 8 x 10
picture of himself, not autographed, going for $8.50. What's up with
that? Do you know?
I
don't know what that means. I mean, how stupid to sell a magazine
for so low. Why?
You
can go to Amazon.com and try to email the guy to find out if you'd like.
No.
(laughing)
|
 |
Right.
Why waste your time? Do you prefer to read books in German or English?
Actually,
German. But I just bought a German book, it's a computer book and I
don't get it. Computer stuff I can only do in English.
Did
your boyfriend bring that book for you during his last visit?
My
boyfriend?
Excuse
me, Ex-Boyfriend. |
Yes,
he's history anyway. And no, I bought it.
You
bought a German computer book here in America?
No,
I bought it in Germany because I have a computer also in Germany.
When I go on my trips I can't live without a computer, I'm totally
addicted. I'm hooked on it. The computer took my life away.
(laughing) I have no friends anymore, I have just email friends.
Do
you respond to a lot of your fan email?
Yes.
I'm trying to. The last couple of months I was really bad, to be
honest. I didn't respond to the emails for up to three weeks and it
was adding up to 700 emails. So now I'm trying to follow up and I'm
down to 250.
Nice!
Do you have a fan club in Yahoo!?
No,
but if you put my name in a search engine you'll see I have a fan
club in Italy and in many other countries but I cannot follow that.
Once I punched in Elke Jeinsen in a search engine and there were so
many sites with my pictures. Some of them made me so mad because I
didn't know about it. I didn't waste my time to look any further
because you know, there is nothing you can do about it. (pause) There
is something you can do, but then you have to sue them. I am not this
kind of person, who likes suing someone.
I
did a search of your name and got approximately 1,000 sites with
your name in them.
What?!
Really?!
That's
where I thought I learned your date of birth, but when I clicked on
it it had someone else's picture on it with your name on it and they
were born in Chicago.
Really?!
Yes,
and I knew you weren't born in Chicago.
Ha!
That's interesting. OK, I'll [check into] it. I'm changing my mind a
million times today. It's really not my day, I'm going from "yes
- no, yes - no, yes - no."
You
should really check it out. Because there's someone there with your
name that was born in Chicago. Maybe they were born with that name.
OK.
I'll check that out! And how many sites were coming up?
I
think there were about 1,000.
1,000!
That's good to know for the next interview.
(both
laughing) Why is that?! You have another interview?!
Yeah.
Do
you hang out with any other Playmates? We just interviewed Julie
Strain, do you know her?
She's
my friend! Julie's also on my web site.
Oh
yes, I saw the New section. I saw the pictures of the Playboy
Halloween party on there.
Yeah,
the Halloween party is with Julie. She is a really good friend. You
probably didn't see her because she is shooting all of the pictures
in my members section. So I'm sure you did not see that and I don't
even want you to see that.
OK!
(laughing) I'll stay away! Answer me this, I grew up really nerdy.
No girls talked to me for the first 19 years of my life.
Why?
I
was really short, I was really fat, I was into computers and really
good at math. No one talked to me.
You
were short and you were fat?
I
was 5'1" and about 180 lbs.
Now
you're tall?
Now
I'm 5'11" and 170 lbs. I've fantasized about women like you
most of my life while I was growing up. What would it take for a guy
like me to come up and talk to a girl like you?
Is
that a question for me? What do guys think?
What
would it take to talk to someone like you?
A
lot of courage. I mean I have these fans that keep emailing me and
writing letters, but then when I see them in person they don't have
the courage to talk to me. Like at the Glamourcon they have the
opportunity to see us. They send us letters and emails for years. So
then all of a sudden they see us in real life. They walk 10 times
around our booths before they have the courage to come, stand in line
and say something. They're sweating. And if they buy a picture with
you, like a Polaroid and you put your arm around them you can feel
their heart beating. I swear to God it's true. They have a big mouth
but when it comes to the point where you're in their face. . .
They're
little boys.
Yeah.
Little boys. Yeah, and many men are afraid.. I believe this is true
and I believe it is my problem with men . . . Many men are getting
self-conscious, is that the right name? When they see the woman is
powerful and successful. This is very true.
What
about your last boyfriend? Was he like that?
I
don't know. I guess so. There are many men that cannot handle it if
you are actually successful. They seem kind of . . . I don't have the
right word. What is the word, help me. They feel kind of, not stupid
but they feel like . . .
Less
powerful? I'm trying to think of the right word.
You
should know!
(laughing)
I should know?! I was born in Mexico!
Yes,
but you are in this country probably longer than I am.
Yes,
I guess I have been.
It's
not self-conscious, it's the opposite.
|
Well,
whatever it is, those men aren't secure, I'll tell you that.
Right!
This is the word! Insecure! That is the word! (laughing very hard)
It's fun talking to you. Insecure. I've been searching for this word
forever. He was insecure and he is insecure. (still laughing)
You're
saying most of your men are insecure?
Yes.
I make them insecure. I do it not really on purpose. I am not
easy, OK. But if I know I can make them feel insecure, then if I want
to make them angry I do it on purpose. |
 |
That's
not right, I know that, but I am like that. I can put them down easily.
How
many times have you been in love?
How
many times what?
Have
you been in love? Or, have you ever been in love?
Oh
yeah. Twelve times I was in love.
The
first time was when?
The
first time was when I was 13-years-old.
Who
was it?
With
a German guy. I was with him three years!
Was
he older or younger?
Younger.
He was exactly nine months younger. I remember that.
Do
you think if you saw him today you'd remember him?
You
know what, I saw him recently. I had a job in an expo in Germany in
Hanover. I was taking pictures and signing autographs and he was an
engineer or something, he was fixing something electrical [at the
Expo]. He had his own company and then he came over and he said,
"Hi." I did not recognize him. He lost his hair.
(laughing)
Did he look sexy without his hair? Some women like that.
No,
he does not look good at all. When he was my boyfriend he looked
good. I couldn't understand that. He does not look good at all. He
doesn't give a shit about how he looks.
Maybe
it's because he's married?
He
has a family and stuff but it's so unusual for me that people don't
care how they look.
Well
that's L.A. Los Angeles is very much like that. My best friend says
you get "love handles" when you're in love. That's why they
call them that. Your last boyfriend still cared about how he looked.
(sigh)
You know it makes me just angry, some stuff, but, you know. Forget
it. Did you see [my last boyfriend] on my web site?
No,
I may have.
He's
under the Friends and Stars. His name is Dirk.
OK,
this is my last question. I don't think you answered this question
from before, what do you know for sure?
What
do I know for sure? Yes, I did answer the question, I said I will be
rich someday.
You'll
have your million dollars one day.
Yeah.
Did I say that or not? That is what I know for sure. Also that I am
not going back together with my boyfriend.
Is
that a good thing?
It
is a good thing but I have to work on that really hard.
Have
you spoken to him today?
No,
he didn't call me. (pause) And I won't call him, that's for sure
this time. We broke up before once but this time it's for sure.
On
your upcoming trip to Germany do you think you'll call him?
It
happened last time that I was in Germany, he kept calling me and
then I saw him. This time I really want to look for a different
boyfriend, that's for sure.
In
Germany.
Yeah.
You asked me what do I know for sure, hey I know for sure I want to
search for a new boyfriend.
In
Germany.
Ehhh.
. . I'll start in Germany.
Right,
then work your way back to the United States?
The
American men? I don't know.
What
about Mexican men?
I
had a Mexican boyfriend in Cancun.
How'd
that go?
Crazy!
Good! (laughing)
