Hometown: Fayetteville, N.C. | Height: 5-foot-6 | Weight: 130 pounds | Measurements: 32B-26-36 | Hair: Black | Eyes: Green
Fresh-faced Kallie Jo hails from Fayetteville, North Carolina, so it's probably no surprise that her parents weren't thrilled about her getting into porn. But the gal with the almond eyes and big smile realized early on that acting in adult had to be better than the waitressing she'd done since she was old enough to work—and besides, community college bored her, so she did what any savvy teen does these days: She went online to see what was available.
"I looked through several different agencies. I found one that I felt I could be comfortable with," she explained. "I started out with AMA Modeling, and I went to Florida and shot some scenes in Florida, and that's how I got started. Then I came home and found a new agent, and he was based out of California—Chris at Foxxx Modeling—and that's how I'm here now."
Indeed, Kallie commutes to L.A. from Fayetteville for work, and she considers traveling to be one of the perks of porn.
"Since I've been in the industry, I've gotten to go to Miami and now California," she noted. "I've never been this far west before, ever, and I enjoy it."
One of the thing directors like about her is her accent, and it's that drawl that inspired her to choose her stage name.
"'Kallie Jo' just sounds so Southern, and you can hear it in my voice," she said. "Everybody that talks to me goes, 'Ohmigod, where are you from?' I just play off the Southern accent and it's done pretty well for me."
Her first shoot ever was for Reality Kings, where she got a facial from Tony Martinez—and gave fans a peep into her slightly kinky side.
"I liked it because I got to do it in cowboy boots, so that was fun; that was really fun," she chuckled. "They were actually my boots; I had them with me, so I got to wear them and I was happy I got to wear them. But I do like costumes."
And while 32B isn't the biggest bosom around by any stretch of the imagination, Kallie nevertheless got hired by Score Group for a scene with Tarzan, "Showing Off for a Friend." The question is, why?
"Everyone asks me that," she disclosed. "Actually, it's probably because I have a very natural look and I look young, I have no tattoos, and at the time, I didn't have the tongue piercing I have now."
In future, she's looking forward to actually creating characters on-screen because, "I enjoy doing dialogue; it's fun, getting into it and getting into character; I'm really good at that."
But one of her real dreams since getting into the industry is to work for Greg Lansky's Blacked.com.
"I've actually never, even in my personal life, been with a black man, so I think it would be a pretty good experience to be able to do that on camera for the first time ever."
In her personal life, Kallie makes art pieces from old bottles—"I clean them up and paint them and put lights in them"—plus she rides and trains horses—her parents own a big farm—and she's even a bit of a horse whisperer.
"I used to do hunter/jumper; I've done cross-country and I've done western pleasure riding," she said.
And where does she see herself ten years from now?
"I hope to be doing hair and makeup on sets for girls," she said. "I have learned that I am good at makeup and hair, and I love doing it, and actually, I would like to get into the kind of makeup they do on mainstream movies, make people look like witches and gremlins and things; I'd love to do that."
Considering how many superhero and other parodies the industry is turning out these days, she may get her chance a lot sooner than anyone expects!
