Janine a.k.a (Janine Lindemulder, Real Janine and Dakota)
She is best-known for her work in American pornographic films during the mid-1990's and a 2004-2005 comeback. Her legal name (birth name) is Janine Marie Lindemulder.
Janine Lindemulder did not begin her film career in adult videos. With her gorgeous yet teenage girlish looks and incredible body, she had begun appearing in "mainstream" films in the 1980s, though in typical "blonde bimbo" roles. After graduating high school in 1986, Lindemulder supplemented her income by working as a stripper. In 1987, she began modeling for Penthouse magazine, making her first appearance in the December 1987 issue, as the Pet of the Month. She appeared several more times in Penthouse over the next ten years, and was chosen as Pet of the Year Runner-Up for 1990.
Lindemulder was married in 1988 (she had a son, Tyler, in 1991), and attempted to build a career as an actress in mainstream films. Her first role was in the 1988 Italian film Bersaglio sull'autostrada (aka Moving Target) in which she appeared under the name Janine Linde and co-starred with Linda Blair. She also appeared in the films Spring Break USA, The Price of Desire, and Caged Fury. She is also the cousin of porn star and model Kelly Madison.
Lindemulder made her debut in adult films in the 1992 movie Andrew Blake´s Hidden Obsessions, quickly becoming a leading actress in the industry. She was known for the unusual reservation of only having sex with women on film - an agreement she reportedly made with her husband.
Her career took off, and she appeared in many popular adult films, such as the Where the Boys Aren't series. From 1993 - 1999 she was a "contract girl". She became involved in a long-term lesbian relationship with adult film actress Julia Ann, and the two women comprised the exotic dancing act Blondage. The pair have performed in films and on strip club tours, finding their dance routine quite lucrative.
Lindemulder divorced her first husband in 1996 and retired for the first time from adult filmmaking in 1999.
Following her divorce (and after her relationship with Julia Ann ended), Lindemulder dated rock musician Vince Neil. A video tape of them having sex (along with unidentified woman, purportedly model and actress Brandy Ledford, although the woman's identity has never been confirmed), was stolen and released for sale by the same company that released Pamela Anderson's celebrated "homemade" sex tape.
Around this time, Lindemulder experimented by appearing with male performers in magazine layouts, although she retained her "female only" policy in films and video.
She also had a relationship with former 'MTV's Headbanger's Ball's host Riki Rachtman. In addition, Lindemulder appeared as "the nurse" in Blink-182's "What's My Age Again" music video, and is on the CD cover of their 1999 album.
Lindemulder remarried in 2002, to West Coast Choppers founder Jesse G. James. James left her in 2003, when she was seven months pregnant. She gave birth to a daughter, Sunny James, on January 1, 2004. The couple later divorced (Lindemulder allegedly threw a vase at him).
In April 2004, Lindemulder returned to adult film making as an actress and producer, breaking her own "no boy/girl on-screen" taboo (with Nick Manning) in Vivid's Maneater. Her films during her "comeback" period have frequently featured her in scenes with one or more male partners.
In November 2005, Lindemulder announced on her official website's forum that she was once again retiring from adult films. In January 2006, however, she won two awards at the AVN Award Show - (Pirates), and decided to rescind her retirement for a third time. She continues to perform, mostly with women, but occasionally engages in sex on-screen with men.
She has 2007 AVN Award for Best Sex Scene Coupling (Film) – Emperor (with Manuel Ferrara).
Why did you make the switch to doing boy/girl.
At the time I was coming back into the industry and I knew that I was bored? No, bored is a bad word, there is nothing boring about having sex with gorgeous women. I knew that I wanted something more though. The whole time that I was working with women only I would take a peek at a boy/girl scene and think "damn that looks like fun." This time around I was ready for something different. I am at a different point in my life and the thought of boy/girl agreed with me. I knew that the majority of the people watching my movies wanted something else and it was due time. I didn't feel like I had to, it just felt right, like something I could do with all my heart.
I love talking to new girls coming into the business. I try to give them some insight into some of the things I have gone through. I am one who favors girls not getting into this business in their teens. I know there is a big market for it, but they need to have something to fall back on. Porn is great, porn has given me an incredible life , freedom and ample time to spend with my kids, but at the same time it is a little terrifying to think that after your porn career is over, what do you have? So many girls get into it without anything to fall back on. I always tell them to have something to fall back on before getting in.
