Misconceptions About Porn Stars

[KimoraKlein]

I'm seeing a Kimora Klein, Bree Olson and Jane Burgess 3 way video in the making right here!

Heh!

That.... would be epic.

I think that a lot of what people think about porn stars is wrong. I have known this for a awhile and this board reaffirmed it. Most porn stars are people who enjoy what they do and have no so called "horror stories" for getting into the business. They are people who lead normal lives like the rest of us, the one big differance is their job is having sex. They are the type of people who you could sit down and have a beer with and be great friends.

YES! Thank you for understanding. And I'd have a beer with you any damn day of the week.

 

[KimoraKlein]

please stop me if I am wrong, but most guys belive that being a porn star is not that difficult. I mean what could be better you get to have sex with a hot chick. They forget that it doesn't matter how they want to fuck. It's up to the director. Imagine having to stay hard for several hours while they shoot you with this girl in several different potitions. You have a bunch of other dudes hanging aroung you holding lights ,a guy with a camera is about 2 inches away from your balls getting the penetration shot. You have to wait for the director to say you can cum, because he has to set up the camera and the lights for the pop shot. Plus if you blow a load to early. Well that's more money wasted and you may not keep your job too long.

About being a male talent in the industry:

I'll tell you what I know and from hearing male talent tell me about it, but don't come back and bite me if I'm wrong about something.

Yes, it is fairly difficult. I think that one way of being able to figure this out is the ratio of guys to girls in this industry. I mean, how many legitimate male porn stars can you name off the top of your head?

Guys do have to be able to keep it up for prolonged amounts of time, they do have to perform around crew (or even OTHER male talent). And just the other day I watched a DP scene go on for 20 extra minutes because the director wanted both the male talent to pop... simultaneously.

Usually, if a guy pops too early then everyone has to hang around and wait for him to get going again and pop again.

I really highly respect dudes in this industry. It takes a lot. Sometimes I even think that it isn't fair for them to get paid less than girls, depending on the scene.

I try not to judge people before I know them personally... I hate when it's done to me (mostly because of how I dress) so I try to not prejudge anyone because of their job or anything else...

Good, it's always a good idea to wait until you've gotten to know someone. Glad you think that way.

 

[Jane Burgess]

Great thread Kimora. I am always asked about escorting. I think I seriously say 100 times in a day that I am not an escort.

 

[Jane Burgess]

I am glad you said it and I wholeheartedly agree. You have my support now too, looks like I have to say "Vote for me, Jane B. and Kimora Klein!"

I love you.

:crash:

Again. WE ALL MAKE DIFFERENT AMOUNTS OF MONEY. I CAN NOT AFFORD A CAR, WHEREAS SOME GIRLS HAVE '11 BMWS. And I am just talking about the porn industry.



It surely is not common knowledge. Common knowledge is 2+2=4, common knowledge is that Earth spins on an axis, common knowledge is that you have a penis, and I have a vagina. Please see the ridiculousness of this post: http://board.freeones.com/showthread.php?t=344245


Now you know. That was the purpose of the post.


I am pretty sure it is a mixture of casual slander as well as ignorance, as I said before. I don't know how many dudes are jealous of porn stars.

1. I was talking bigger names. Just because your in an industry doesn't mean you make a ton. It's the same in all industries.

2. Common knowledge for a general user of the board. That guy has 15 posts. How do people not know this anyways after being around here a while.

That is true. There are porn stars that make a lot of money. Frankly I know web cam models that make a ton of money.

Okayyyy, so what's the point of you stating a general fact that everybody makes a different amount of money? Not to be a bitch, but duh?

I'm happy that you know that.

I wrote this for people that don't.

I was agreeing with you on number 1.

When is the hunting season for unicorns??? They are around Yellowknife, Canada, right???

Oh! Oops. Another secret that got put out there!

Great thread Kimora. I am always asked about escorting. I think I seriously say 100 times in a day that I am not an escort.

Thanks. I get at least 2-3 offers a week via Twitter. TWITTER! :rofl:

I seconded that motion. Well said. I couldn't aree more. Blessed are the Porn Stars and I love and respect them as human beings.

What a great thread you've started Kimora! And that's a good term you've created: sex-positive feminist. It was a horrible mistake on the part of feminists in the 70's and 80's to align themselves with puritanical groups. It's not sexually oriented forms of entertainment that cause men to objectify women - it's puritanical brain washing. The vast majority of men cannot deal with guilt. So if they're feeling guilty about feeling lust for a woman who is asserting her sexuality, they cannot respect that woman as a person. But efforts like yours may yet break people free from all that puritanical brain-washing.

Thanks! :] But I didn't create the term, it actually exists as a movement.

All my hopes have been dashed by a single thread.

Awesome Kimora! Good way to set the record straight!

 

[Supafly]

Wow... like so many og the other posters above, I am very happy about you, Kimora, making your post.

You know, we all pretty much know that the BS about pornstars and models is not true, but it had to be said.

Sure, there are some performers etc like Jenna Jameson or Peter North, and they sure have made quite a few dollars.

But as you said, and like people can learn themselves, if they read some interviews or articels or even just topics in thsi forum...

Not everyone is a millionaire in the biz and the economy droppping, it got harder.

You people do an awesome job, and you entertain us so well - why guys around here are being offensive or plain nasty at you is beyond my understanding.

Never mind those people.

You rock :bowdown:
