K, now that the title of this thread has you're attention, don't go scouring the net for videos of Velvet or anyone else in a compromising position. I am not referring to a past career choice, but a past team name. I am probably mistaken. But I seem to recall that a few years ago, when Angelina and Velvet had just started appearing on television in TNA, I heard that they briefly had the team name The Porn Stars. Sufficed to say, this did not last long, and soon they were just referred to by name, and eventually by the PG rated The Beautiful People. Is there an validity to this, or is it just bunk?

I don't recall having the name but I remember the new sites talking about the name change.

I think it was just an IWC thing. When TBP made their TNA debuts at Bound For Glory '07, they came in solo & under their indy names: Talia Madison & Angel Williams. Of course, once TNA figured they were gonna keep both of them, the girls needed new names TNA could own. Thus, the team of Angelina Love & Velvet Sky was born.
The IWC immediately pounced on the new "porntastic" names. They were frequently referred to on wrestling websites and forums as The Porn Stars until they got an official team name, The Beautiful People, once they turned heel (around the time they were responsible for Roxxi's head being shaved).
So, no, they weren't called The Porn Stars on TNA television.

They were never called that on the show, just in the IWC.

Trina Michaels can actually cut promos, draw heat without shaking her goodies, and take bumps in and out the ring. And she is hotter than Lacey. Maybe they felt a porn star would make the Beautiful People act sleazy and low brow. As if grinding a ring rope like stripper giving a lap dance is high class entertainment.

And she is hotter than Lacey. Sure...if you like the haggard, used-up, stripper look.
