sb: Oh wow, Mistress Bernadette, thank You VERY much for this exclusive interview! i know how many people were after You to get it! You cannot believe how many requests i got for You! Please tell us a little about Your background. Where are You originally from?

MB: I was born and raised in the Toronto, Canada area. My Mother was a native American Indian and My father is of French decent.

sb: How Were You introduced to The Scene?

MB: My Mother had a friend who was a lifestyle dominatrix. At the tender age of fifteen I was introduced to the s & m lifestyle. I visited her home with My Mother one night and saw a younger boy doing Her laundry. Later in private I asked her who he was. She replyed with a wink, "he's My houseboy. Every Woman should have one." A few years later I finally knew what She meant.

sb: Very cool! Where did You start Professionally?

MB: I was the child protege of two very skilled Mistresses in the Toronto area, Mistress Lucie and Lady Selena.

sb: This might seem like a dumb question because You look so forceful and authoritative to me, but were You ever submissive?

MB: Actually that is a really dumb question. I don't have a submissive bone in My body. I was never submissive and will not be submissive!

sb: i sincerely apologize for the stupid question Mistress. How old were You when You started Professionally?

MB: I was 21 years old when I took My first tributing slaves' ass.

sb: Please describe Your style of Domination?

MB: My style of Domination is unmatched. Every scene I create is unique. I range from sesual to severe, leaning to the severe side.

sb: What is Your favorite type of scene?

MB: My favorite type of scene would have to be a dual Dominatrix v/s hapless slave, with strong humiliation and masochism exercises. Much hair removal in the way of plucking and shaving turns My crank.

sb: Please tell me the most intense scene You ever did?

MB: Well, do you mean intense for Me or intense for the slave? Once I crammed a bottle rocket into a butt plug for an ass slave, lit it off and it celebrated fourth of July with a flash and a bang.

sb: WOW! That is wild!! Can You tell me the most humiliating thing You ever did to a slave?

MB: The most humiliating thing I did to was to a certain masturbatory slave who just couldn't keep his hands at his side. As he was laying on his back, just about to 'finish', I grabbed his ankles and pulled his legs up, bending his torso so the stream landed squarely on his chin and cheeks.

sb: Wow that is humiliating! How about public humiliation. Do You get into that?

MB: I most definatly get into public humiliation outings. I get a greater charge from the slave when I have an audience. I love the shocked look of onlookers faces. It's very satisfying.

sb: How about crossdressers? Do You enjoy these type of scenes?

MB: I love My 'girlfriends'! I am a trained makeup artist. I'm thrilled when I see the transformation I have created. I enjoy enhancing the feminine qualities in men. I have many outings and activities My girls and I can do together.

sb: Do You enjoy watersports?

MB: I do enjoy using My slaves' mouths as a toilet. Its not so much that I enjoy ws but more the humiliation ws delivers.

sb: Your legs and feet are absolutely exquisite. Do You enjoy foot worship?

MB: Absolutely. I especially love foot attention. Massages, kisses, licks, nibbles, rubs... are all wonderful. I keep a perfect pedicure just because I love My feet. When My feet are pampered I'm a more merciful Mistress.

sb: Do You prefer taunting Your slaves in boots or open toe shoes?

MB: A 50-50 split. I have many pairs of open heels and equally as many boots. As much as I love to reveal My 10 little jewels, I love to make them a mystery by covering them.

sb: Do You like heavy corporal?

MB: Being the happy sadist I am I enjoy a heavy corporal scene in My week. I usually get perspiring quite a bit as I swing away. I consider heavy bringing blood between the layers of skin, just before breaking it. I don't play bloody.

sb: What is Your favorite implement for this?

MB: It would have to be My purple sandpaper covered paddle.

sb: Ouch! Please tell us about Your facility?

MB: My dungeon is located in Hollywood, Florida in a quiet complex. I'll exercise My subs using My Xframe, spanking bench, large dog cage, toilet throne or bondage rack. I have many tools of torment for pain, humiliation and restraint enthusiasts. A sissy salon complete with wardrobe & makeup. Privacy and discretion I assure.

sb: Do You have any personal slaves?

MB: I own two very faithful slaves who take care of most of My needs.

sb: Can a slave who scenes with You also be photographed if he wishes?

MB: Only if he wishes. I respect a slave's privacy. This can be arranged.

sb: What kind of slaves do You like the most and least?

MB: The type of slave that I most enjoy are extremely submissive, polite and responsive. While slaves who are looking for sex, have poor manners all around and don't communicate well turn Me right off.

sb: i don't blame You! What is Your favorite type of clothing?

< MB: I truly love foot wear. At any given time I'll have up to 30 pairs of shoes in My closet. Slippers, high heels, sandals, boots...

sb: What is the greatest thrill You get from Domination?

MB: I get My charge from Domination when I reflect on the furthest points I've taken slaves either psychologically, financially or physically(pain). Sometimes I amaze Myself.

sb: Do you session with novices?

MB: Yes, but the novice must pass My test. The Competency & Willingness test before I'll consider it.

sb: Could You explain what that is?

MB: Well the key question in that test is "Do you understand basic dungeon protocol and ettiquette?" As long as a glimmer of competency exists the novice can be trained further. With the willingness part of the test I hope to know how far they'll open up to new exercises.

sb: What is one of your favorite positions to have a sub in?

MB: The most visually appealing way I enjoy seeing My subs is kneeling, crouched all the way over, palms outstretched and upturned with elbows and forehead touching the floor.

sb: What is your favorite drink?

MB: My favorite drink would have to be virgin fruit punch in a tall, icy glass with pinapple and cherry garnish.

sb: Perhaps you could share one or two of your other interests?

MB: When I'm not doing what I love the most, I'm hunting for pieces for My dungeon (shopping) or keeping My holy shrine in top shape with tennis, pumping at the gym or walking.

sb: Do You have any videos for sale?

MB: Not at the present time but check back to My site soon.

sb: What are Your favorite types of gifts?

MB: My favorite types of offerings are ones I can wear or smoke.

sb: Do You play in Your personal life?

MB: Yes I do. I enjoy playing privately and at area fetish clubs.

sb: What is a really kinky scene that You haven't done yet that You would like to do with a slave?

MB: I would love to have a fellow Master & I, dual dominate a young, lesbian couple!

sb: Do You also work with Women and couples?

MB: Yes, I do session with couples and female submissives. What a session that would be!

sb: i know You have travelled extensively. What places have You found the most appealing?

MB: I love Hawaii. I was hoping to relocate there from Toronto but I settled for Florida since it's driving distance back to Canada (to My family). I find Myself at home in tropical environments.

sb: Do You plan to offer a members section on Your website?

MB: Yes, in the very near future.

sb: You are without a doubt really gorgeous. Have You ever modeled professionally?

MB: Thank you for the compliment but No, I've never modeled. But I'd be dazzled if I modeled for the cover of DDI!

sb: Please tell everyone how You can be contacted for a session?

MB: Visit My web site and fill out the slave questionnaire, first. Polite emails I will reply to but I prefer the structure of the slave questionnaire.

sb: Mistress Bernadette thank You very much for giving me Your first interview. i am really honored!

MB: You're welcome slave bruce. I think your interview page is really wonderful.
