Pornography
Porn stars speak out

Becca Brat, who did over 200 movies, says about the porn life style: "I went to work at 8am, did my scene - hopefully I got paid that day and it wasn't payroll . If it was, I went to the bank and got money to buy my drugs for the day. Then I went home, got high, called "friends" to come over so I wasn't getting high alone. They would come over, do drugs, have a swingers party (with unsafe sex) and stay up all night on ecstacy, meth, and heroin... and whatever else we could get our hands on. Sometimes I stayed up for 3 weeks without sleep." |

Porn performer “Reagan Starr,” in an interview with Talk magazine in February 2001, described her experience while filming Rough Sex 2 in horrific terms. She said that, while sex acts were performed on her, she was hit and choked until she couldn't breathe. Other “actresses,” she said, wept because they were hurting so badly. In the same article, a sex-film star notes how threatening the work is to performers’ health. “Nearly everyone has STDs,” said Chloe. “If you’re a porno performer,” she continued, “your latest HIV test is your work permit. ... The tests we take test only for AIDS. We’ve contained AIDS in the industry, but what about all the others? You know we’re now up to hepatitis G?” |

"I'm a typical porn star," Rebecca Bardoux says at the June 1997 Erotica LA Convention. "I come from a dysfunctional family. We don't relate... When I was a little girl, I wanted to be a call girl." |

Alex Devine writes: "Donkey Punch was the most brutal, depressing, scarey scene that I have ever done. I have tried to block it out from my memory due to the severe abuse I recieved during the filming. I actually stopped the scene while it was being filmed because I was in too much pain." |

Jenna Jameson says porn has more pitfalls "than nearly any other occupation." Drugs is one. Maintaining a boundary between your job and private life is another. Jenna Jameson writes in her book on page 132: "Most girls get their first experience in gonzo films -- in which they're taken to a crappy studio apartment in Mission Hills and penetrated in every hole possible by some abusive a*shole who thinks her name is Bitc**. And these girls, some of whom have the potential to become major stars in the industry, go home afterward and pledge never to do it again because it was such a terrible experience." |
