Found out a girl I went to Highschool with is a porn actress now |
|
I haven't seen her in years, but it kind of made me sad. In school she was extremely pleasant and sweet.
Far be it from me to tell anyone what to do with their life or body. But, with all you here about porn actors and the lives the lead and have lead, I just hope that she's happy doing it, and isn't one of those who fell into it because of a traumatic upbringing and such.

3. What's wrong with being a porn star? |
|
Back in my dot-com days I hosted porn sites; those were much more stable & sane people than the "businesspeople" I dealt with.

16. Hm. Come to think of it I only met "indie" porn people |
|
I'd imagine the big studio stuff is as screwed up as it always has been.

15. Most porn "actors" are not "stars" in the least. |

21. It's like with soccer players. The Ronaldos and Rooneys and Villas are what the public sees. |
|
99% of them, the unseen masses that play in 2nd and 3rd and 4th and etc. divisions (and even many non-stars in some 1st divisions) earn a pittance and live like crap.
I find the situations oddly similar.

Call her and set up an interview.
Then you can ask all the questions you want, and won't have to be left wondering.

They don't let reporters branch out? I did not know that.
If she's on FB, go ahead and send her a hello.

Everybody's got to do something for a living in this economy, I bet it pays a hell of a lot better than flipping burgers...

18. Hey, that happened to us, too! |
|
In 1982, when we went to my husband's 10th high-school reunion, we discovered that, not only was a former classmate a porn star and held some kind of a nude beauty-pageant title, but she had arrived in a camper that announced her happy status on its side. As I recall, she wore a sparkly jumpsuit and was accompanied by a sleazy manager. It was the funniest thing that ever happened at one of our reunions, including the time a former classmate decided he was going to give up on his career as an engineer and become a singer, having just composed a song especially for the reunion.

Everybody's got to do something to make money. Hopefully she's putting a lot of it in savings and will be retired in a few years.

20. But the real question is....truthfully, after you found out, did you look at her work? |

22. Hopefully, she is safe |
|
I've known people personally who have been in the sex industry and they are a mixed bunch as far as personalities are concerned. Some weather it better than others. Some, I'd trust to watch any of my kids; others are not stable enough to take care of a houseplant.
I hope that her pleasant and sweet personality keep her going through whatever she does.

23. Yeah it's always fun when that happens. |
|
It's even more of a riot when you discover your cousin by marriage is now in adult films.
You know what's also fun - former co-workers. Yeah.

24. She probably makes a ton of money, and is happy and well adjusted |
|

I wouldn't worry too much.
If a girl I went to high school with was a porn actress, she'd be 63 years old...and I hope happily retired.

28. The girlfriend of my ex-girlfriend's brother was a stripper at the Pink Poodle |
|
She had a few photos in the Pink Poodle calendar one year, and some raunchy ones (taken at the Pink Poodle) in "Cheri" magazine.
I was told about her day job after I'd met her. My initial impression, without knowing what she did for a living, was that she was sort of cold and stand-offish. She reminded me of a few cheerleaders I knew in high school. There didn't seem to be any tragedy or misfortune surrounding her...she just decided that she'd let middle-aged men ogle her for money.
Sometimes these things are dramatic...other times they're not. This one wasn't.

31. A buddy of mine had a gf break up with him and then |
|
a year later she turns up in Playboy Girls of the Big Ten spread with a half page to herself. in all her glory...
he said he had always thought the worst that could ever happen to him was that girl breaking up with him.... and then the day came when everybody was calling him to tell him she was in Playboy. heheh. poor guy. I was about the 10th person to call him.
but I was kind of proud of her because they used to grab rides with me between our home town and the college we all went to. Once we stopped in a McDonald's in a redneck town on the way and we got kicked out because she wasn't wearing any shoes.
I told him, after the magazine thing, I sure wish she had got us kicked out because she wasn't wearing a shirt that day !
