Go See Chanel on Saturday at Tranny Strip in NYC!

Trans beauty Chanel Santini is appearing on Saturday at Headquarters in New York City in her very first feature dancing appearance. Go see her there and get to know her here!

What were you like back in high school? Who did you hang out with/date?

"I was really awkward in high school. I came out as Trans at the age of 15 and I would go through many phases trying to find my style. I didn’t date much in high school; I wasn’t as cool as I am now. I was kind of a loner."

Were you a porn fan before you got into the industry? Who were your favorite porn stars/favorite porn movies?

"I started doing porn two weeks after I turned 18, but I do remember when I was younger getting on the family computer and discovering gay porn for the first time. I definitely made sure i deleted the browser history. LOL."

What kind of scene have you found is your favorite kind to do?

"I've been working with a lot of genetic females lately and I’m really loving it. There's something about eating pussy that's very satisfying to me. I never thought i would say that. LOL."

What do you want to do on-camera that you haven’t done yet?

"I hope this isn't too cliche to say, but I would love to be gangbanged. I’m known to be that young teen girl. It would be super hot if I could be in a fraternity while getting pounded by all the sexy frat boys."

Who is your favorite male/female/trans performer to work with and why?

"There was one male performer I’ve worked with for Grooby Productions I liked. Although he left mid scene, he was very sexy. I would say my favorite female performer I’ve worked with is Jasmin Lafleur. She's incredibly sweet, and of course super hot! After working with her, we have became really great friends and she even introduced me to the guy I’m dating now."

You respond to your fans a lot on Twitter. What do you like most about talking to your fans on social media?

"Honestly, I don’t like calling my followers ‘fans’ - I like to call them my supporters. Social media is so powerful, and it’s interesting getting to talk to people from all over the world. I remember when I first started in porn I had about five hundred followers and now after nine months, I’ve reached 20,000, which is crazy! I sometimes forget how many people actually look at my social media. It could be hard when you have a big following online because you could post something wrong and it could offend some folks. I try to be careful and mindful of others."

How did you become a porn performer? What led you down that career path?

"It’s a long story but long story short. I moved to Vegas with my former best friend back in December of 2015. I was working at Hollister, living paycheck to paycheck. My friend was posting to Craigslist looking for work and it was the week of the AVN’s in Vegas. A producer from Grooby Productions contacted my friend asking if she was interested in doing a scene. She showed me, and we laughed. We took it as a joke. Then I looked into it more and started thinking about it more and I ended up taking the deal. I shot at the MGM Grand, and my career took off."

What do you most want to achieve as a porn star?

"I would like to develop my brand more. I would like to make TS porn more mainstream. TS is a really big niche in the industry but it's still something that a lot of people keep on the down low. I would like to be signed with a major agency because no trans woman are, or at least none I know about, and I want to show other TS girls to embrace our bodies and to not be ashamed."

What do you enjoy most about feature dancing?

"I’ve never been featured before so I’m super excited for Tranny Strip in NYC. I LOVE to Dance! I danced one time at John Ed’s parties and I had such a blast! I enjoy feeling sexy and being in the spotlight."

What do you like to do for fun?

"Well, I travel a lot, which is fun but can be very exhausting. I LOVE to shop! If I’m ever feeling down or in a bad mood, I head straight to the mall. Sometimes it gets me into trouble, but at least I look fabulous! LOL. I enjoy fine dining, hanging with friends, and a good parrttyyyy!"

What do you think are “must-have” DVDs for your fans?

I don’t think I have any DVDs [Editors note: Here is a link to them] but I do encourage everyone to sign up for my solo site chanelsantini.xxx Everything is digital nowadays."

What do you think that people assume about trans porn stars that just is not true?

"Honestly, a lot of people think TS girls get paid just as or more then genetic porn stars. That’s not the case. We actually get paid less which in my opinion is completely unfair."

Do you have a "wishlist" of anyone that you want to work with?

"I would love to do a scene with Bailey Jay."

What did you like most in your scene in Rodnievision's "She-Male Strokers" series?

"I had the best cum shot on one of my solos. I have never came that much in my life. Sadly, I can’t cum like that anymore with my hormones."

What is the best mainstream movie you have seen recently?

"I’m not a huge movie fanatic. I haven’t really seen any, but I still would like to see 'Suicide Squad'. I want to do a Harley Quinn sex scene for my website."

How about the best porno movie? Is there someone whose movies you like to watch who is working now?

"Honestly, I don’t watch porn anymore. I think after being the industry, you realize it's not the same anymore. I haven’t found a scene that got me turned on in a very long time."

What is coming up for you?

"I’ve recently have had the privilege to work with the legendary Joey Silvera from Evil Angel. I have two scenes coming out with them. I don’t want to give too much away but one is boy/girl and the other is Tgirl-on-girl. It's going to be super hot and I can’t wait 'til it's released! I’m also shooting with Kink at the end of the month for TS PussyHunters, which is going to a lot of fun. I will continue to tour more and hopefully branch out to other countries like Europe and Australia."

If you could fuck any celebrity, who would it be?

"Adam Levine. Hands down!!"

What single piece of advice would you give a brand new trans porn star?

"I would say just be yourself, and don’t do anything you don’t feel comfortable doing and save every penny! Invest, invest!"

Is there anything you want to say to your fans here at Fleshbot?

"Thank you guys for all your support this year! It's been one crazy ride. You guys are incredibly sweet, and reading all your comments and tweets really brightens my day. I hope you guys continue following me on my journey to becoming a very successful model!"
