Hello all,
I recently did an interview with Psymon Jerusalem of TickleChicks.com in the hopes that by reading this, everyone will get to know their favorite Male Model better.
Enjoy!!
1. State your name please
Psymon Jerusalem! Although lately, in my neverending effort to be more efficient, I've been introducing myself and signing all my e-mails as Psy.
2. How old are you?
I'm 28. 30 approaches...
3. How long have you been in the business?
I've been doing tickling videos for...about 3 years now, I think? We started really small though. Our membership site's only been up 6 months, I think, but we sold stuff on Clips4Sale for 2 or 3 years, something like that.
4. How long have you and Addie been shooting clips/vids together?
3 years, roughly. She's the first person I ever shot for anything. I was looking for someone to help out right off the bat, and we hit it off instantly. I was very, very, very lucky to meet her, and meet her immediately like that!
5. How long have you and Addie known each other for?
3 years That's right...we met when I hired her. Pretty crazy, huh? I'd never hired anyone before like that for anything. I was extremely nervous, but apparently it didn't show too bad!
6. Was the idea to go into the business with Addie yours, hers, or both of you guys?
I actually asked her via e-mail, while we were setting up the shoot, if she'd be interested in helping me out here and there, running the camera, etc. I offered to teach her how to edit and stuff like that. It wasn't long after that...maybe a few weeks or so...that I asked if she just wanted to be partners. I could tell she was awesome and whip-smart right off the bat, in addition to being adorable and super ticklish, and I was a complete newb, so it was a total win-win. She had been doing fetish modeling for a little while and knew about how to hire models, what the "scene" was like, all that kind of stuff. I have a degree in Computer Science and know a ton about technical computer stuff (although I was learning about shooting video and stuff as I went...you can tell by how much more amateurish our early stuff looks). We traded info. She's pretty freakin' technical now, too. She's actually taking a class in some pretty hardcore computer science now as well! I like to think I helped geekify her a bit.
7. Tell us about some hobbies you have other than tickling.
I like working out, but it doesn't show yet. I'm into a lot of the typical stuff - film geek, music lover (of all types, including rap, opera, country, African, noise, Indie, you name it). I'm REALLY into science. I read www.sciencedaily.com, er, daily. I listen to Astronomy Cast, all that good stuff, love it. I love the video games but I'm way too busy to play as much as I'd like to. I'm about to beat Fallout 3 - it only took me a year and three months. I put like 200 hours into that game. I like apocalyptic stuff - zombie movies, etc. I'm also heavily into politics and history, but, as a businessperson, I don't bring that stuff up. I'm also big on the comedy scene. I have a friend that does stand-up comedy who's starting to get a little exposure, locally. I love going to comedy shows. I'm flying to LA to see Ricky Gervais (with Addie) and to NYC to see Patton Oswalt (who I've seen twice already) on Broadway, I'm totally psyched. I'm also into art, design, etc. I grew up in NY and went to MOMA a lot, the Whitney, all that stuff. I'm the annoying guy who points out what designer designed the cool chair in the lobby of a hotel or whatever. And I really, really like waterparks. I like photography, but not model photography! Weird, huh? I actually am not huge on taking still model/glamour photos. My little secret. I like taking pictures of decaying urban landscapes, stuff like that, but taking pictures of models bores me, actually. I like models though. I do like cinematography though, editing, all that stuff. You probably wouldn't be able to tell from our videos (we have to get that stuff out really quick, you know!), but I wanted to be a film editor in high school. I got waitlisted at a really good film school but didn't want to take the risk. So I ended up in the ATL. I thought it was going to be warm here!
8. Would you consider yourself a ler/lee or both?
Oh, man. This is a dangerous question. Well, I'm definitely a ler. I'm always fighting Addie to get to be the one doing the tickling in our videos. She typically wins the argument though, because people want to see her do it more than me. As you know, I get tickled a LOT myself. I'll put it this way...I really enjoy it AFTERWARDS. It's exciting, an adrenaline rush, the idea of it. But I'm so ticklish it's ridiculous. If girls go too nuts on me, it's like my brain is trying to reboot itself. I almost get angry, but not really...know what I mean?
9. For all the ladies out there, are you single?
I'm single, but uh...I don't know if it's for all the ladies out there. But hey, any lovely young ladies out there who want to grab a drink and wax philosophic with me about quantum physics, rad! I love geeky girls. Not so sure they love me
10. Are you and Addie and couple?
Nope, but we ARE roommates! We're practically life partners at this point. And I've sort of co-inherited her dog. So, no, but it can certainly look that way.
11. Are you married, divorced?
Single, no girlfriend right now, never married. I'm simply too busy, and hey...I'm 28...I got time. Right? ...right? I have a super hectic regular job (that I used to have to travel for constantly) in addition to Tickle Chicks as well as other fetish stuff...it would have to be a girl with the patience of a saint to deal with me right now.
12. Once more for all the ladies what gets you going?
Big boobs. Just kidding. I mean, I like big boobs (and small boobs too), but I just thought it'd be funny to throw that out there as the first thing. I think everyone expects guys to immediately go into the sweet traits first. But yeah, it's a cliche, but sense of humor. It's an absolute must. Someone who can instantly get a subtle joke. I like girls who are not afraid to trade barbs, dry wit, talk smack, all that. Trading quips with a cheeky girl...that definitely gets me going. I like intellectual artsy types. Someone who will debate with me and enjoy it. Physically, I'm into all types, really. I'm a dog. Thin girls, girls with some thickness, white/black/asian/latin/whatever. I love a pretty face - the eyes, really! I find myself attracted to short girls quite a bit. I'm 6'1". I'm a boob guy. I was told ass guys are more mature and sophisticated than boob guys. That's bunk. I also love cute tummies...for obvious reasons. Also, if a girl is a freak, sexually...that's almost a must. I may look like a cross between Harry Potter and Stan Laurel, but I'm a wild man! Woo! And being at least decently ticklish, of course. Especially the midsection. My answer is getting a bit crude now - I think all the ladies have stopped reading.
Thank you for doing this Psymon. It was most insightful
