Sweetheart Video’s Nica Noelle is hosting a fundraiser for Stephanie Swift, who was diagnosed with breast cancer last summer, on on March 10 in Santa Monica.
The event will take place from 9 pm to 2 am at the V Lounge and 100 percent of the $10 entry fee will be donated to Swift’s fund.
“Stephanie has completed chemotherapy but she has yet to undergo surgery to remove cancerous lymph nodes,” said Noelle, who is Swift’s close friend. “She’s been fighting heroically for months now, and it’s been terribly difficult on all levels, not least of all financially.”
“She has been so brave, and it’s been heartbreaking to watch her endure the pain of this last year,” Noelle said. “Everyone who cares about Stephanie or has ever enjoyed one of her films should attend this fundraiser, just to give moral support if nothing else.”

I hate writing about sad things here on HM4Her. I mean, who wants to come check out hot porn and get a screen full of bad news? But alas, not everything in life is blowjobs and orgasms, which itself is pretty sad, so here goes:
Adult star Stephanie Swift has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. The 1998 AVN Female Performer of the Year will undergo a double masectomy later this month. A performer for more than ten years, Swift worked as a longtime Wicked contract girl and has a catalogue of 350+ movies, including a recent inclusion in friend Nica Noelle’s Sweetheart Video/Sweet Sinner productions.
“Stephanie is about to face the biggest fight of her life,” Noelle said. “Everyone who loves her is devastated. We’re all praying for her full recovery.”
“Stephanie Swift is one of the greatest performers in the history of adult films,” said Jon B., owner of Sweetheart Video and Sweet Sinner Films. “She has starred in many of our productions, and we consider her part of the family. We’re deeply saddened by this news.”
“We’re asking that anyone who has ever enjoyed a Stephanie Swift film, or has felt personally touched by this beautiful girl in any way, contribute to her well-being,” Noelle said. “Every little bit helps.”
Noelle adds that all who contribute $100 or more to Swift’s fight against cancer will receive a free copy of Stephanie Loves Girls! an all-girl Sweetheart Video feature starring Swift, Elexis Monroe and Satine Phoenix.

Sigh. We love Stephanie Swift and her boobs and hope to see her back on the porno screen soon.
Our best wishes go out to Stephanie. Get Well Soon!

One of the most frequently asked questions I get as a woman that works for a porn site specifically for women is for recommendations for straight movies that are more than just guys banging girls. I get this question so much that I’ve started a running list of good movies I see to make sure I have the answer on hand whenever it comes up. I mention my list because this Sweet Sinner film is going straight (no pun intended) to the top! The perfect mix of sensuality, intimacy and hardcore XXX, this movie focuses on way more than waiting for some dude to blow his load. Of course, how could it not be awesome, it’s directed by Sweetheart Video’s Nica Noelle. Branching out from the all girl movies that Sweetheart produces, Noelle started Sweet Sinner with the hopes that she could use the same formula that made Sweetheart so successful – real sex, real positions and real intimacy. Nica’s philosophy sometimes cost her getting a perfect XXX shot, but instead she was able to get something that other porn sometimes lack – the feeling that you are watching sex and not porn.
My favorite scene of the bunch was the last, with stepmother Dolores (Michelle Lay) getting it on with her step-daughter’s fiancé Jack (Alan Stafford). It’s a little risqué from the plot’s perspective, but the sex is definitely right on target. They start in the shower, where Dolores walks in on Jack, well, jacking off. Soon they are on the bed, fucking each other from one end to the other. I love that the scene doesn’t seem rushed or contrived at all. The stars are both totally into it and seem to be having a great time. Sure the housekeeper walks in on their dirty little secret, but like them, we’ll deal with that when the time comes, which is sadly in the next movie to come.
Nice work Sweet Sinner, I can’t wait to see what comes next!

There are certain porn “milestones” that cause one to take a moment to reflect upon. My first scene with Stephanie Swift was one. My scene with Nina Hartley was another. And now, my intense scene with the one and only Ginger Lynn has gained status as one of the most memorable and auspicious of all.
I met Ginger for the first time at Playboy Radio more than a year ago, when I was a guest on “Nightcalls.” She let me suck on her nipples and give her a spanking On Air — tasks I considered myself unworthy of performing, but which I hoped to carry out with some degree of competence. I found Ginger to be wild and adorable in equal doses, and I wanted to find some way to work with her again. In fact, when an interviewer at that year’s AVN show asked what my biggest wish was, I responded, “to cast Ginger Lynn.”
So when my good friend Powder called me a few months back and asked if I would be a guest on Ginger’s RudeTV show “Dirty Divas” I immediately accepted. I dolled myself up in a taffeta mini dress and stripper heels, piled on the sparkly eye shadow, and headed for Porn Valley.

I’ve been waiting for Sweetheart Video’s first release since I first got word that Nica Noelle had decided to put out her own line of lesbian erotica. Fans of hot girl-on-girl action should already be familiar with Noelle, who previously worked as Sydni Ellis, from her amazing work with Girlfriends Films. Sweethearts’ first release, Lesbian Confessions, was well worth the wait. Noelle set out to make beautiful lesbian films that feature gorgeous women having real sex (I know, it’s crazy!) and definitely made it happen. One thing I appreciate is that each scene is shot in one take. There are no edits or cuts, so you get to experience the entire encounter as it happened. I really liked the first scene, mostly because I thought that Samantha Ryan was pretty amazing. It’s hard to pick out one small scene in this thirty-minute masterpiece as my favorite, but if I had to, I have to admit I loved watching Ryan’s eyes roll back in her head as Stephanie Swift buried her face between her legs. While I love the first scene, you can’t go wrong with any because they’re all really well done. Beautiful women living out their secret forbidden pleasures for you!

One interesting (and mildly terrifying) facet of my life as a porn actress is that I don’t necessarily know who I’m going to be having sex with on a given day. It’s a little like arranging a boxing match — who do the fans want to see go at it? Who would make good ‘opponents’? Sometimes conventional wisdom is correct, and other times — as highlighted in my last column — it’s a bit of a disaster.
And sometimes you strike gold and you find yourself in a scene with Stephanie Swift.
Most people know her as that former Wicked contract girl, the super hot, exotic-looking one who seems a little… glum. Stephanie is not blonde and big boobed, nor is she particularly bubbly. There’s something sincere about her, a hint of something genuine. A longing, or a sadness. It comes across on screen and it’s even more apparent in real life.
