You say Sean Michaels stopped working a dozen years ago? Nope – he is still active and has probably done more in the past dozen years than 99% of the people in the biz will ever do during their entire illustrious career… and Melissa Hill is so entrenched in the biz, albeit still keeping her cute knees tightly and safely closed, that we had her co-host the XRCO AWARDS SHOW a little over a year ago…

In reply to Sam38g. Sam I agree with you and would think that most of the girls who have been successful in the long term did it on their own, like you have, they own and manage their brand and their content you and others like you that have been very successful on the internet arent really like your cousins in porn valley

In reply to BT. Keep in mind that people who left porn behind and that are happy are NOT going to talk about their lives for public consumption. I used to wait tables at a pizza joint 20 yrs ago. Not going onto pizza place forums if they exist & talk about my life since then.

In reply to Sam38g.

If you want to get depressed, listen to the stars of the golden age talk about their lives after porn. I have not listened to Seka’s recording yet, but as to the others, one after another – from Veronica Hart to Sharon Mitchell to Lisa DeLeuw – discuss their drug addition or alcoholism, their money woes, their failed relationships and their thoughts of suicide or attempts at suicide. It ain’t pretty.

In reply to Sam38g. If these statistics are correct Nina made 938 movies & let's narrow down the time frame from 1984 to the year 2000 and say she got paid $1000 for each one. Nina averaged $6250 a year from paid porn shoots. Maybe the fantasy we are all being sold that performers especially female performers are making all this money, getting super rich & blowing all the money they made filming porn movies.

First, of the 100 most prolific porn stars of all time (that is, the ones who have starred in the most films), 96 are men. Next, the ten most prolific male performers, on average, have slept on-screen with 1,013 different women each (45 a year for an average career length of 22.4 years). Whereas the ten most prolific women on average have slept with 148 different men (8 a year for an average career length of 17.7 years). Nina Hartley, for instance, who made her porn debut in 1984 and has starred in more porn flicks than any other woman on earth (938), has slept with 199 different men on film. Tom Byron, on the other hand, who has more film credits than any other man (2,549), and who made his debut only two years earlier than Hartley, has slept with over five times more people of the opposite gender than her: 1,127 different women. Men in porn—in an almost absurd parody of the masculine stereotype—really get around. – See more at: http://jonmillward.com/blog/studies/deep-inside-a-study-of-10000-porn-stars/#sthash.lvOAMBTh.dpuf

In reply to Sam38g. Sam hit the nail on the head. Very FEW performers, male or female have ever made over $100,000.00 from performing in porn Throw in the escorting ie prostitution, dancing ie stripping, and some of them break the six figure mark. I remember in 2005 AIM had an anonymous questionalre that asked how much do you make, in movies, escorting and dancing. One female performer, who was definately one of the top performers of all time, who many assumed would be making a million bucks wrote $165,000.00 as her answer. As I was talking to Mitch about it I said I'm making more than that just off their blood and piss. And Mitch said, "And you dont have to shove anything up your ass." Classic Mitch.

In reply to Sam38g. Performers, producers, and others that made big money for years in the adult biz and have squandered it away, all have one thing in common. With few exceptions, they never treated what they were doing as a legitimate business. Money was easy, foresight was short.

How any performer spends their money is NONE of your business. Let’s stop pretending that new girls or female performers in general are making hundred thousand a year & just squandering it. And how much of that money goes back to their agent for flying them to LA, model house, test fees & then agent fees.
_______________________________________________
There are lots directors & company owners now are broke that made WAY more than the female talent in this industry for much longer period of time. But NONE of you throw shade on them the way you do the female performers. Some who have made millions of dollars are now broke _____________________________
Male talent may have gotten paid half of what their females did, but then they were booking 5 to even 10 scenes a week for YEARS that are now broke. Legends who are now broke.
_____________________________________________________
Hell, many who had big homes, new cars, savings accounts & normal jobs lost it from the housing market crash & then the economic downturn…. Did they squander their money too.
STOP HATING ON THE FEMALE TALENT
You are only keeping the status quo & preventing something like this Union from being a success. This is a systematic way to keep telling the females in this industry we don’t matter, we aren’t good enough.
Doing this helps keep those agents & directors who take advantage of new performers in place.
