MAYBE this isn’t exactly news but apparently, the reason for Montana Fishburne’s foray into pornography is her penchant for sex.

Laurence Fishburne’s 18-year-old daughter spoke candidly in an interview with E!, describing how she views making her own X-rated tape as liberating.

When asked when her fascination with sex began, Montana readily answered: “I’d say about 16. I lost my virginity and the whole sexual world sparked my interest.”

“I think it was just wanting to explore sexuality,” she added. “‘Cause I know it’s such a big world I was just like, wow, well since I like sex…I wanted to see everything that I would like, every kind of fantasy I would like and porn is a way that I could explore that.”

She even told CarltonJordon.com that “the first time [being on camera] is really nerve-wracking…but I have a lot of at-home experience.”

But Montana, or “Chippy D” as she goes by in the tape, wants to set a few things straight: she is not ashamed about her porn debut, she was never arrested for prostitution and Kim Kardashian is not her career role model.

Unfortunately, those rumours about her no longer being on speaking terms with her Dad are true.

“I have a really good relationship with my Mum,” she said. “She just wanted to make sure I thought about the decision before I made it.”

But Montana last spoke to her Law & Order star Dad on the morning of his birthday on July 30.

“[We haven't spoken] about this situation ’cause he doesn’t want it all out there. I’ve had communication with him but not about the tape,” she said. “He might be mad, he might be hurt.”

“For him, it’s his reputation because we are linked together,” she acknowledged. “It’s hard for any dad to see their daughter on tape like that…but at the same time I want him to understand that this is my dream.”

So where to from here? Although there is word that Montana has been offered a multi-film contract with Vivid Entertainment, the publishers of her video, she has a couple of other things in mind.

“I definitely want to have my own business, that’s definitely what I’m about. The entertainment industry is fun and I like it, but in the long term, I want to have some kind of business, whether it’s in entertainment or outside. I definitely want to have some kind of empire.”

“Everyone’s like, ‘Kim Kardashian, Kim Kardashian.’ No. That is not whose career I want to emulate. I would say [porn star turned Entourage resident] Sasha Grey.”

“I feel confident. I say I’m not going to regret it, because I’m on a path now. I’ve made the decision and now I’m on a path. If it leads me somewhere, I don’t look at anything as bad. Wherever it takes me, I’m gonna make a positive out of it,” added Montana.

“The only thing I wish I could take away is the pain that it will give my family. I wish it didn’t hurt them, but besides that, I’m thrilled.”

So Laurence, forgive and forget, maybe?
