Mia Khalifa is among the world’s most-watched women. Yet the porn industry is keeping the profits.

If an actor pursues the adult film industry, there are two options with wildly different compensation paths. One is the traditional production studio that pays actors as contractors — a flat rate for scenes, so volume is key. That is what Khalifa did, and in her case, about $1,000 each is typical, Helmy said, with the lion’s share of profits from subscriptions and ad revenue going to production companies.

Another is an independent model that provides a bigger cut and options for residuals.

But that money does not always go back to actors. If ******* paid Khalifa a portion of advertising revenue per view similar to YouTube, the videos could have generated about $501,000 using an amount disclosed by *******, said Jason Urgo, the chief executive of Social Blade, a third-party analytics site for YouTube.
