Tentatively titled “Cousin Stevie’s Pussy Party: Tushy Monsters,” Hunter headlined the eight-girl orgy with Flower Tucci, Olivia O’Lovely, Luscious Lopez, Alana Evans, Trina Michaels, Richelle Ryan and Déjà Vu contract dancer Sunny Lane.
In between scenes, Hunter confessed to XBIZ, “I would be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous about today.”
But with her close-cropped hair dyed black, white leather corset and matching spike-heeled boots, Hunter was as edgy and hardcore as ever. She may be remembered more as a platinum blond bombshell, but the new look is a real Halloween treat for loyal fans who eagerly await her return.
Diagnosed with lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma in late 2006, Hunter quit performing immediately and undertook a 10-month series of cancer treatments. At the time of her diagnosis, it was reported that her thymus gland had swollen to the size of a grapefruit, as her T-cells replicated at an alarming rate and attacked her glandular system.
“You know, when she first got sick, we were thinking about what would happen if I had to raise the kids by myself,” Hunter’s husband Josh said. He and Hunter have two sons.
On-set as a lighting technician and to also support his wife, he added, “That’s how serious the doctors said it was — but she fought it and she’s doing a lot better.”
At that point, Stevie called for the scene to start and said, “OK girls, I want 15 minutes of hot, dirty, nasty fucking, as hot as you can be.”
Any hint of nervousness was gone, once the cameras were rolling on Hunter. Her trademark enthusiasm for extreme play was unleashed; maybe more so because of her long absence from performing.
As she worked on Evans, Hunter shouted out, “You want it, mama? It’s your turn now, baby.”
The starlets split up into to two four-ways, with a wide selection of sex toys to choose from. Hunter, O’Lovely, Lane and Michaels made up one team, while Tucci, Lopez, Ryan and Evans took the other couch.
Soon, a squirting contest ensued between Hunter and Tucci, with encouragement from a Magic Wand vibrator. All the girls laughed and cheered each other on until, eventually, Stevie called for a break so that the crew could mop up the floor.
“It’s just another day on a Cousin Stevie Pussy Party shoot,” Stevie told XBIZ with a shrug. However, he explained that hosting Hunter’s return made the production a special one for him.
It’s great having Nicki back. She’s a trooper and really one of the best in the world. And she’s lovely,” Stevie said. “Considering the months of chemotherapy — she comes here to work and she puts on a great performance, and the bottom line is, she loves it.”
Many industry members rallied to support Hunter and her family after she became ill. Stevie especially was a loyal supporter through her medical treatments, Hunter said, often inviting her to the set or to participate as a judge for other "Pussy Party" production shoots.
“Stevie, I love, and I adore coming back and doing my very first scenes for Stevie because he is my man. He is the best,” Hunter said. “We do a lot together — he really fights for me, no matter where I am, or who I look like or anything, he always fights for me.”
Both she and Josh have stayed as busy as possible, Hunter added, and even while in treatment she continued doing directorial work for VenusGirls.com and MeanBitches.com. She also has done some directing for Hustler and Kylie Ireland’s Slutwerkz, and is pursuing new projects with them, as well as with production company SexZ Pictures.
“But I was a little jealous to be in front of the camera,” she said. “It feels so good to be on-set, right here in front of the camera because this is where I want to be. I want to be with the girls.”
After the foursomes were finished, the crew set up for four double solo scenes and Hunter stopped for a moment to answer the obvious question about how she is feeling now.
“I am fully recovered and I’m in remission. I still feel incognito, with the dark hair and all,” she said, smiling a sideways grin. “It is completely a new me, but it’s the same energy and same person that you’re used to seeing. I’ve got too much to live for. I love what I do and I love who I do it with. I’m alive and I’m gonna stay alive, and you can’t get rid of me, no matter how hard you try.”
