The Sexy COVID Survivor Is Still Horny and Stubborn As A Russian Bear
Tattooed and inky-black-haired porn vixen Misha Montana isn’t old enough to run for president, but the recent COVID-19 survivor found out on April 15, 2021, that she isn’t too young to have a stroke.
A mere 72 hours earlier, Montana had been shooting in Los Angeles and preparing mentally for an upcoming double vag scene in AltErotic’s Inked Motel 3. The scene will happen as part of her comeback because the self-described “hardcore, energetic, badass performer” has no intention of letting a little thing like a stroke keep her from producing sexual magic.
Have the doctors suggested a reason for a stroke at such a young age?
I was in complete denial that I was having a stroke because of my age and generally good health. So much so that when I Googled the symptoms, and the first thing that popped up was a stroke. I assumed it was one of those cases where Google was just telling you death was imminent when it probably wasn't. In this case, however, that's exactly what was happening. My neurologist has concluded that my stroke was a result of a blood clot that was most likely formed from having COVID in February (not from the vaccine, which I also received).
How did you drive the two hours back home?
That drive was the most terrifying two hours of my life. The panic truly set in when I was driving. Everyone, especially the Emergency Room staff, was so shocked to hear I drove that far. But I have to put the situation in perspective. I was in the middle of nowhere, in a mountain town that has a population of several hundred people and the closest major city was my home in Reno. I rationalized it by thinking that if I called 9-1-1 there wouldn't be any adequate services anyway. Who would come? The one Sheriff in town? So, I knew I just had to try to make it and if I felt horrible, I would have called 9-1-1. I should have gone to the hospital when it happened, and that was a mistake that I'm lucky I survived.
What is your health like now? How’s your sex drive?
I'm learning to adapt to this new life. I am thankful that through physical therapy, speech therapy, and medications I have most of my speech and mobility back. At night it is strange because my symptoms come on again. It's frustrating to go from being extremely active to being so debilitated and incapacitated by this, but it's a humbling daily reminder of what happened. I have horrible headaches, bouts of depression, and strange chest pains related to the cardiac portion of the event. I'm learning how to adapt, and I've been trying to get back to work, which will be interesting to see. The Russian part of me is so stubborn that I refuse to allow it to stop me.
I haven't had sex since it happened, which is excruciating! I am so horny. That's the only part of my body that's functioning at full steam. I masturbate at least twice a day. I'm doing a huge comeback scene on May 28 that I'm really excited about and I hope that will pop the seal for my full return back to work. I have a lot of projects coming up that I'm eager to be a part of.
Has your perspective on life changed since the stroke?
I think that I've entered a special community of people that can truly relate and understand. I think that's a beautiful gift from this. I have had experiences in the past that gave me a similar outlook and I considered myself to be grounded, open-minded, and empathetic but this has taken that to an entirely different level. My thoughts are different. How I process and transmit information is different. I feel like I'm in a void and everything is scattered. It doesn't even seem real to me most days, and a lot of that is because my memory has been greatly affected. I don't recognize myself when I look in the mirror, and not just physically but entirely. If anything, it has inspired me to be more active in porn. I think this is something that humanizes not just me individually, but everyone in the industry. I want to show people that something like this doesn't have to define you or prevent you from achieving your goals.
Don't get me wrong. It is very scary, and I've dealt with emotional and physical hardships, but I still wake up every day full of gratitude and so much happiness to be here. I want to make my life matter and I want to have a positive impact on people's lives and inspire as many people as I can. I'm in my dream profession and I'm surrounded by the most wonderful people in the world. I am overwhelmed by the support I've received from the porn community. I've honestly had more support from that community than from my own family.
Speaking of porn, what do you have planned?
I've still been modeling and producing content. I never stopped. I was even posting explicit updates from my hospital bed. I'm anxious to shoot hardcore content, but I wanted to make my comeback scene a priority. I have half a dozen projects coming up in the near future, so once I pull the trigger it's going to be full speed ahead.
2 Russians 1 America is a YouTube and AVNStar reality show that Ivan and I created that shows the behind-the-scenes craziness and weirdness of our lives. We have some wild adventures already and a ton coming up that involve snakes, road trips, and lots of aliens. It's definitely a fun, intimate project for me and I hope it gives people a laugh, as well as an inside look at our lives on and off set.
Which of your tattoos is your favorite?
My favorite tattoo is definitely my alien pussy tattoo. By far the most painful experience of my life, I'd consider having another stroke before I did that again! I'm so happy with it and Ossie, the artist, is absolutely incredible. The vision I had was flawlessly executed beyond my wildest expectations. The tattoo process can be seen on AltErotic, where they did a 10-part web series that includes the tattoo and a blowbang I did immediately after, as well as my stroke. It was a massive undertaking of a project to begin with, and it's taken a crazy direction. It's a beautiful series that I'm so proud to be a part of.
