The MILF next door - Payton Leigh

By Troy Michael

In an industry where the average age of a porn performer is in the early 20s and the career span of the majority of those girls is roughly a year or less, it is pretty ballsy to enter into the world of porn at the age of 36.

That’s exactly what Northern California MILF Payton Leigh did in 2003. The blonde Leigh, now 42, started out in the industry on a part time basis for three years and has gradually worked her way up to be one of the “go to” MILFs in the adult industry for the past three years. She has amassed nearly 100 films over her years in the business doing the lion share of her work with Girlfriends Video, but has also done a lot of outstanding boy girl scenes in Cougar 101 (Wicked Pictures); MILF Stories (Vivid); Seasoned Players 10 (Evolution Erotica) and TILF (Teachers I’d Like to Fuck) 2 (Adam & Eve).

I had a chance to sit down with the 34B-24-34 Payton Leigh and ask her about this crazy business we call porn and being a “cougar” in it.

You started in porn at a relatively late age, how come?

Well I really didn’t learn about my sexuality until I was in my early 20s because I lost my virginity at a relatively late age – at least compared to today – I was 18.

The main reason for getting into the adult film industry was simply because times were hard for me at the time. I was working an office job in the medical field and hadn’t had a raise in the last few years, but they kept giving me more and more work. I began to hate it and one day someone asked me or suggested that I give porn a shot. I thought about it for awhile, and one day I was just fed up with my job and quit to do porn.

Even before getting into the industry were you a sexual person?

Well once I had sex when I turned 18 and started learning more, yes I was. I married the guy who I lost my virginity too, who turned out to be a jerk. He was nice at the time though. When we first tried to have sex he couldn’t get his dick in me and didn’t want to hurt me. So it took a couple times. I had and still do have a really tight pussy.

Then with my second husband, the man I am married to now, we fooled around a little bit and tried different things sexually.

How does your husband feel about you fucking guys on film? 

Well, we have our good days and bad days. Sometimes he is ok with it and it gets him really hot, but other days he is a bit more insecure about it. He worries I might fall for someone I work with or something. So I won’t tell him about my day unless he asks. I am not the kind of person to flaunt it or elaborate on fucking guys if he doesn’t want to know.

How long do you see yourself doing porn?

I will probably work another six months or so. Not because I want to stop, but the industry is really scary right now. There are so many changes going on with the internet and people not making as many films. Sometimes I will work like crazy for two or three weeks, then there will be nothing for a coup0le weeks. It is so inconsistent right now. I think if it comes to that, I’d like to wind it down and do things on my website.

Being 42 now and you started at 36-years-old, how do you feel about girls coming into the adult film industry at 18, 19 and 20-years-old?

Well I say good for them. It could be the perfect time for them because you never know what is going on in their lives or how mature they are. For me I couldn’t have done that, if they can mentally handle it - good for them I don’t pass judgment on anyone.

I’ve seen you do some nasty things like putting a fruit smoothie up your ass then pushing it out in a glass and drinking it. How was that experience?

That was kind of yucky. It was a last minute thing really. The company flew me down to Arizona and I never did anything like that before so I thought why not try it out? I am glad I tried it, but I wouldn’t do it again.

I’ve also seen you fuck Christian with a strap on. Is that a big turn on for you?

No not really. That’s another one of those things I tried because I never had done it. That was probably another one of those things that I will not do in my normal life, but I tried it and that’s fine.

Is there anything that you tried in porn that you ended up liking?

There is a couple of things, I like multiples. I like it better when it’s girl girl boy because it seems to go smoother than a boy boy girl. Multiples are fun because there is more going on. The more the merrier I say.

What is a fantasy you haven't done yet?

I think if I would have liked the anal more I would have liked to try a DP. I tried anal and I just couldn’t do it very well and didn’t like it. So I guess being double penetrated will have to remain a fantasy, but I’d still like to try it.

Do you and your husband watch your porn?

We have before, but it’s not an all the time. It goes back to him wanting to see me like that or not. And when I watch myself I am like a typical girl, I am critical of myself. When we do watch my porn it’s hard for me to believe that that is actually me on the screen.

Before getting into the industry, did you watch a lot of porn?

Oh, yeah I did. I watched a lot of porn in my early 20s and it was always the girl girl scenes that turned me on. I had a girlfriend I would play around with at the time so that helped too.

Do you prefer men or women?

I am bi for sure. I love having sex with women and the oral sex is great, but I need a hard dick in me. I couldn’t just be with a woman. I like to play with them, but having a plastic vibrator isn’t the same as having a real man fuck me.

Has sex changed at home since you began working in the industry?

No not really. It is hard to find time to be with each other. We have two young kids and my husband has his job, so by the time we get settled in at night we are pretty beat. When we do have sex, we have to wait until the kids are asleep like any other married couple.
