    Default ? 4 pornstars

    Hello all.I've been coming here for awhile,been dancing for nine years.I get right to the point.I'd like for all the ladies that have been in adult movies to share there experiences. Here are a few questions to start off with:

    1.Why did you choose to go into adult films?
    2.How far did you make it? (# of films,mag covers,awards,etc.)
    3.How do you feel the biz affected you? Good or Bad

    I'm interested in the film industry, and I'd just like to get some info about how to succeed or fail.Things to watch out for. Anything you wished you would have known before you started.Like they say " Hindsight is always 20/20. " I guess I'm asking to use your hindsight.Thank you for reading this.

    Well I will tell you how things happened with me and hopefully can help you out.

    I got into doing films because I was already a dancer and I figured I would try it. If I didn't like it I wasn't going to do it again. But I did it and LOVED it. It is like playing dress up, taking some pretty pics and then you do the "work" part. Most people have been nice to me, and I think back 9 months ago and wonder how my life would be if I hated doing that scene and never went back. But I don't regret anything I have done. My family knows what I do and even though they are not thrilled they still lpve me.

    So far I have "made" 11 movies, 7 of which I am on the cover. I have 4 magazines, 3 of them I am the cover girl. I have shot for some of the larger print photographers: Suze Randall, Earl Miller, and Scott Preston. I love doing print more than video, even though pics are a lot more work.

    This business eats people alive that live the "lifestyle" of porn people. I don't drink, smoke, go out, or do drugs. I am the dorky side of porn. I like it that way though, at least I don't have to worry about some pics of me showing up with me drunk or high. It's just tacky.

    And for me the most important thing was getting an agent I could trust and that worked within my limits. Trust is something rare in the porno world.

    Thanks for the reply. I'm definately interested in doing g/g. I'm in a very loving , stable, and happy relationship with a man. We don't want to do the couple thing. We enjoy keeping that private. I've heard that most girls won't make as much doing G/G, but that's still the area I'm interested in. I've been danceing for 9 years and never partied too hard so I still look really young. 34-26-34 Planning to get BA soon. no bigger than a full C cup. I'm planning on building a website also with lots of stuff. Everything from pic's to custom costumes and clothing, personal artwork, tattoo flash, the list goes on. I'd love to hear from more of you/ PM me if you'd like to keep your business private. I will keep all things private.

    I'm sure you'll do well if you have your head on straight. And never trust people, they have to earn it. I've been screwed over more than once when it comes to the adult film industry. But it can be good fun......and better money. You just have to be comfortable with what you're asked to do. Some people really expect B/G or at least oral at first. I started off with solo, then made the mistake of going into oral. So there are 2 porns of me getting my face splooged on which I really can't take back, ha, just hope no one recognizes me now. Its something you need to think about.

    Monarch:

    Hey there. I found my agent by going on The Floating World website. There is a list of probably more than 30 agents, and I literally started calling around getting a feel for the people that ran each agency. I talked to probably 10-12 agents before I picked one. It came down to picking somebody that wasn't going to push me to do things I wasn't comfortable with, as well as somebody that was going to treat me like an actual person and not just a paycheck.
    I got really lucky when I picked my agent, as he has become a friend on a personal level as well as on a business level. He has taken care of me when I have been sick, defended me to people that tried to pull some B.S. on me, and always made sure that I was ok after my shoots.
    Wow, I have started to ramble, so I will get off of here. Hope that helped you. Let me know if you need anything else, I am about to be back in LA, so I have a ton of time to chill and play on the computer.

    1.Why did you choose to go into adult films?
    I choose the adult films because I love being on camera and I love being watched while I have sex and I got board of the guys I was having sex with I need something more challenging.

    2.How far did you make it? (# of films,mag covers,awards,etc.)
    I started doing webcam shows at home, and being a phone sex operator and joining affiliate programs of other websites. then I emailed website companies my portfolios, I started off with solo toy scences, then went into boy/girl, boy/girl with anal, and boy/boy/girl I went straight for the extreme. and now I have an exclusive website contract with a website company callled Xes Entertainment who is making my up coming website expecting to lauching in the next few months.


    3.How do you feel the biz affected you? Good or Bad
    I think the business has shown me how well I can get what I want when I put my mind to it, and how strong I really am, getting invovled in the business full time, I really see most of my major dreams and goals come to life which makes me very proud of myself to work towards more goals.

    The Bad part of it I starting to realize my boyfriend is getting a bit uncomfortable of me working in the business, but he also understand is one of my dreams and who is he to get in my way.

    You have any more questions send them over.

    I have a quick guest ion. My friend and I were talking about porn stars last night. I told her I should become one so I could be rich. I would like to stop working and dancing, I just want to become rich quick! She told me that porn stars don’t make a lot of money. Is that true? do they make enough money for what they do? She told me it depends on how they use it cause most of their money go to their agents who are the rich ones. She said I would only get maybe 3000 a movie. Was up with that?

    Well Your friend is almost right about porn star not making a lot of money but there is many factors to consider, like how long they have been in the business, what it is the contract wiht the agent they worked out, are they a freelancer, do they have extra income, like a website, phone sex operator, are they starting thier own production company.

    Like for me I pretty decent money runing my own business, from webcam shows, phone sex, websites and once my new contract website is release I will making money from that.

    ^ There's FOUR for Australia and NONE are adult movies. It's only phone and text sex.

    You could also try runing your own website via www.southern-charms.com that way you build your own fan club, and get a buzz out there, and then you can maybe get companies contacting you.

    You need to start small and that is the pretty simple place to get started then use that as your stepping stone to get more contacts.

    Just do research on or talk to some of the other models the producer has worked with.. I have seen a lot of girls that have gotten fucked over by both agents and by producer.. Maybe it is just all the people come and go in vegas.

    Why do some of you say that porn actors do not make alot of money ? That really struck me as funny . First of all you must know that contract girls rake in the money, take Vivid pays from about 180g a year to 700g a yr for their girls . Take 500g/g 1500b/g a scene (thats what I have been offered the most)and multiply that times as much as you think you could work !? Thats a good living . Plus not mention featuring , magazines promos etc etc . I don't know about the rest of you but a six figure income for some honest work sounds good to me
    Don't you just love me ?!?

    Hi, as you can see I am in London now and i would LOVE to be in the adult movies or magazines......I tryed to look on internet for info about how to get in the industry here and the wages, i also lookt at the adultstaffing website but they only have these kind of cheap amateur movies, what i found out on internet is that girls get 100 pound per scene!!! damn thats realy cheap!!! ok i know that new girls can not expect 20000 per scene but COME ON 100 pound for being ALLLL over internet is HORRIBLE and those movies look like SH*T, no prof make-up, no lights, no filters, no stopping the camera pffff just very cheap but a lot of men like this kind of cheap movies so these producers do make money of it...

    Does anybody know how to get here in London in the 'better' scene of UK porn industry?? Movies like Vivid, Private etc? and magazines like Hustler Penthouse etc????

    I saw 1 ad about that they are looking for making the next Jenna Jamson in the UK and they would give very good wages, but thats NOT what i want, first of all i don't have that kind of looks and second of all i just want to do a few movies and a few magazines.....For the fun of it, for the dough and just to know i did a few freaky things in my life lol

    Thanxxx
    Keep on dancing.....

    Um, no. Your figures are way off. Vivid girls are paid about 80,000 a year plus maybe 2,000 per scene.

    OK smartie pants whatever you say , I am sure I just pulled that amount out of thin air right ? Why do some people on here feel the need to start shit with other people by saying how wrong they are . I personally know plenty of people in the adult industry and some who work for vivid , both in front of and behind the camera AND most Vivid contract girls make between 120 a year and some up to 700 a year so to your comment .

    And if they made 80 a year like you said I still think that is awesome money which was my whole point in commenting , that is more than twice the average income in this country . Damn I hate this site
    Don't you just love me ?!?

    I'm going to have to go with Jenny on this one, her figures are closer to what I have seen. Girls won't sign onto a contract for only $80000 when they generally make more than that doing freelance work.

    Also, I've always been curious about vicious anal with monster cocks.

    Don't your asses and stuff hurt like hell after some of these scenes. I mean most of what I've seen coming out now looks like sexual abuse.

    How does this affect your body over time. For the sanctity of my booty, I'd rather just dance a few days. Why is it so attractive?

    Also, Audrey Leigh once advertised for one called hogtied.com. THe girls tits and hands are actually purple during and AFTER the ropes come off. Do people do this because they like pain, or do people put up with it just for money, Sick shit.

    Anyone who thinks Vivid girls make more than what I've said is more than welcome to float their ideas of what a pornstar makes to Derek at - or ask the people at or .

    $700K - maybe that was what Vivid girls made in the mid to late nineties (total income including feature dancing). Not anymore. "Pornstars" are a dime a dozen these days.
