Interview with Tag ErikksonMay 13, 2004 by "Big Daddy" Ferguson First thing I need to do is to say congratulations on your three Grabby nominations! Will you becoming to Chicago -- your fans want to know. Yes, of course, I'm coming! I'm so looking forward to that weekend... It was many years ago I was in Chicago. [The] last time, my father took me there when I was eight years old, and I remember flying in from Stockholm. The airport alone seemed larger than our home town. Where were you born? In Stockholm, Sweden. It's a really beautiful city; clean, friendly and you can walk around everywhere. I lived in old town (1,000 years old) and biked to school and work. The downside is that the scene is limited... I always felt something bigger was pulling me... NYC. How many languages do you speak? Swedish, German, Japanese and English. Most importantly, how old were you when you first had sex? And was it a boy or girl? It was a girl. I was 14, and she was 13. Yes, that is legal in Sweden. I was straight up to [when] I was 20. I was in love with all my male friends but considered myself straight. Then at some random club in London, I kissed my first boy and fainted. There was no turning back. How tall are you? 6'5" How did you get started doing porn? Falcon contacted me, and I decided to try it out. But JetSet ended up signing me as an exclusive, and I was lucky to be the star of the award-winning movie The Hole. What was your first day on a porn set like? It was a long, nervous one. The decision to go through with it was obviously huge, at least for me. It felt like I was taking a big step, over a mountain or something, and could never step back. I remember coming back to the hotel room that night and ordering room service and watching a movie, all calm. It was a good feeling. What is it like working with Wash West? A lot of work (laughing)! He is the best. We are great friends. I always make fun of his British accent, and he makes fun of my Swedish accent. I worked with him twice now, and each time gets better. Who has been your favorite costar and why? My boyfriend... I'm a little bit secrative of who it is, but we have done one or two scenes that have been amazing, literally in the stars... Somehow we have the best sex on set. Who is your dream costar? I always wanted to film with Matthew Rush. I know Falcon and JetSet are planning something like that. We'll see. We have a good energy when we meet. In your private life, what turns you on? Big, brown puppy eyes. How many movies have you done so far? Five, I think. What movies do you have coming out this year? The next Wash West for Jet Set, called Aquarium, plus a few others. Will there be a Tag Eriksson dildo coming out soon? I have been asked. Perhaps, who knows? Is there a need of one with so many out there? I would rather have a Tag Eriksson action doll being made (laughing). Are you having fun in the porn industry? Yes. I have a very philosophical approach. I don't want to be limited. I want to be free. I want to be able to do exactly what I want, no matter what. Porn is that ultimate statement. I have had a lot of fun, and I have gotten to know myself a lot more. Looking deep inside yourself and your fears, inner dreams and what society expects of you is an interesting process. Most importantly, have you ever slept with a fan? Not yet. Haven't gotten any real offers yet... perhaps in Chicago? |
