Recently, thanks to Facebook groups, I ended up becoming friends with a chick. One late night I couldn't sleep, and posted in the group that I was wide awake and bored. A few people, including her, commented that they to were awake and to message them.
So I did. This chick and I really hit off, similar interests, similar sense of humor. At one point I ended up looking at her pix. And it hit me.
She's one of my favorite porn stars!! She ended up confirming my suspicions a few weeks later when we discussed past jobs.
I honestly don't kno what the point of this thread is. She's retired from porn and living her life.
Idk... just wanted to share. And wonder if anyone else has ever connected with a celebrity before realizing they're a celebrity.

My best friend used to do porn back in the early 2010s, but was never a big name in the business or anything.
Also, before my youngest brother retired from music to start a family, he used to introduce me to friends of his all the time who I would find out later were fairly well-known musicians.

I used to work as a video editor for a Britporn company back in the early-2000s, as well as making websites for a few porn stars, before sites like OnlyFans made them obsolete. Still on friendly terms with a couple of them, though they're long-since retired. A couple more follow me on Twitter, though I'd be lying if I said I was particularly familiar with their work.

I don’t care that she made that choice but the more anyone makes reference to her former profession the higher the odds that someone who does care finds out and makes moves to impede her life. Your op makes me think about Gauge’s retirement. She went to college, got a degree, and started a new career in the medical field. She was forced to return to porn when she got effectively blackballed after a coworker recognized her and outed her.

You'll get people who lead crusades against porn, often under the pretence of saving performers from an industry which exploits them (which in the overwhelming majority of cases is true), and then lead another crusade against those very same performers when they try to build a life for themselves post-porn because they – gasp! – had sex on camera.

She's an awesome person and has always been open and honest with me about her porn career. She's answered every question I asked. We talk about more than that tho. She's a big mma and dirt bike racing fan.

So many people tried to recruit me to be in porn when I was a dancer. I never went for it. It's just me but I was never one to actually want to be f**ked on camera for money. I was making great money dancing but I was constantly hounded by porn industry guys. There was a time when I did think about it but I never went through with it.

I refer to the BBC series I, Claudius. In particular the episode about the emperors wife deciding to have a competition with a prostitute. There is a particularly great one liner where the chosen contender tells the gathered crowd “The difference between you and me is that your snobs and I’m not. And the difference between this great lady and me is that my profession happens to be her hobby.”

There's a great bit in Transmetropolitan where a prostitute and a porn star are talking about this and the prostitute argues that is their friend goes to a party a bunch of guys will nudge and talk about how they watched them f***, but if she goes the guy ain't saying shit to anyone about how he paid her to humiliate him.

I ran an e-wrestling fed between '96-'99 and had a character who did crazy comedy shit. I can't remember specifics, mainly because I haven't thought about this in a long time, but I remember turning on Nitro and seeing Chris Jericho walking down to the ring carrying the EXACT same sign that my e-wrestler had recently carried to the ring. That was the most eerie example, but there were other things Jericho did in his WCW heel run that came suspiciously close to things I'd done in my e-fed. I figured it had to just be an uncanny coincidence, but then someone else told me later that he also had strong suspicion that Jericho either played in our e-fed or at least read it.
I learned from another guy that Nova from ECW played in a bunch of e-feds, including mine. I never verified it, just because I'm not the kind of person that pesters celebs, and If I ever knew what character he played, I have since forgotten it.

Know a few porn stars through queer circles, tend to be chill folks. With the rise of OnlyFans and stuff there's not so much of a divide between our experiences either.

I worked with a guy in an office job who he did some filming/directing on the side. He quit the office job to film full time and ended up directing some porn movies. Porn movies, stock footage, and music videos for indie bands.
