Shocked to find out my fav MM models did porn?
This would imply that doing porn is less than respectable. If it's legal and legitimate work then it's respectable. Personally I've been surprised by some friends when I found out they did porn but this was because their personality and the way they presented themselves lead me to believe that that type of work was not in their interest field... I've also been surprised to find out some whom I would have expected to feel comfortable doing porn have absolutely no desire to do so. It just goes to show you that you don't really know a person unless you take the time to truly listen and understand.

Jan 07 10 11:52 am Link What "shocks" me is not that they do it, but *who* has done it And, I wonder seriously if they will regret it. Scott Jan 07 10 03:36 pm Link You do the work you get your payment. Personally, as long as it's legal who cares? Sanitation folk, medical folk, deal with much nastier stuff for less pay, and who judges them?

Jan 07 10 06:28 pm Link I Jan 07 10 07:44 pm Link I only read the title of this and... wtf is the issue? so what if they did porn, who cares? Jan 07 10 07:47 pm Link It's called ADULT work for a reason. If you have any problems with it whatsoever: Go sit at the kids table until you grow up! Jan 07 10 08:01 pm Link On the other side I have been thoroughly shocked and awed to find pornstars who: have masters degrees have singing careers have acting careers are board certified laywers manage real estate are writers, philosophers, artists and the most free and fantastic people I have ever met. Sooo.... who else will be in Vegas this weekend, write me and we'll shoot Jan 07 10 08:07 pm Link LR Photo Designworks wrote: Models do porn or strip because they need to make money. And they can make a large amount of money in a very short amount of time doing porn. Plus, porn work is extremely easy to find, and it ALWAYS pays. Jan 07 10 08:20 pm Link I'm sure it has already been covered, but when I hire a model, I hire the model, not the things they do in life that are their own personal business. I once had a closed mind to a lot of things, but now, I just think before I speak. Actually, I think my adopted cat did porn before.. That hussy.

I've done porn, still do porn...it has brought me more income (though not sufficient to make a living) than regular modelling ever did. I enjoy it, it's fun and I think perfectly normal. People want to watch it so people need to make it. The health risk is actually less than picking up random strangers in a bar because you all get tested and have proof of that. As long as either party acts responsibly of course and doesn't go around doing things like...picking up random strangers in bars. so there...be shocked Jan 08 10 02:23 am Link Vixxa Violet wrote: not really, adult industry is hurting bad, most porn chicks are searching for work. only the new girls and the stars are doing ok. of course if you're willing to do 'fetish' type stuff for a guy in his wood veneer panelled basement for 200 dollars there's always work.

Jan 08 10 04:52 am Link I just found out a bunch of my photographer friends watch porn It takes two to tango. People wouldn't do porn if other people didn't pay to watch it........... Jan 08 10 05:00 am Link Heck.. I've *encouraged* some of my favorite MM models (who are actually friends) to shoot porn. Jan 08 10 05:04 am Link Not gonna say which one but one of my models has her own site. She also has a Bachelors in Business Admin. And even though she does porn, shes still a very nice person and one of my favorites to work with. Tons of people would jump at the chance to know a porn star but to me shes still the same person. After a shoot once we went to lunch and debated about seeing a movie. I have also been known to dress models with my eyes closed by my choice. just a respect thing and I am well trusted.

Please leave your judgements at the door. Jan 08 10 07:41 am Link I think porn has such a negative connotation because ANYONE can get into it, you don't even have to do that attractive, or have a nice body, or have any talent...just a working pussy. I mean, guys will watch porn even if it is bad...like someone said, it ALWAYS pays. It's not that hard to get into and amateurs will do it because they are desperate for money, I think that is why it doesn't get a lot of respect. I still really like Jenna and Tera though...I think they are so pretty and glamourous and great entrepreneurs! Jan 08 10 07:57 am Link LR Photo Designworks wrote: Oh dear god Jan 08 10 08:08 am Link I remember looking at profiles on another modeling site back many years ago when I was getting started and looking for models to work with and get experience. I had a keen eye then about the look that I wanted. I must say that the models I tend to drift to back then had the all made up look of a porn star. Maybe I didn't know then about how I could do a background check on their names but I wasn't aware then that any did any porn. Now fast forward to today. I will say that not all but some of the models I saw then are now doing porn. I didn't stand much of a chance of photographing them then and I know that I SURE DON"T have a chance of it now. I don't look down on them for choosing that career path. I have had some models that do that tell me the money is way better than what they had been getting. So the end result is .....................Can you blame them?? Jan 08 10 08:18 am Link It's good that the OP toned down his post. Shock isn't exactly the right viewpoint. Jan 08 10 08:28 am Link Savvy porn girls make savvy models of all sorts. If you were to look on some of the X-rated jobs sittes, you'd find lots of models who also appear on MM, OMP, etc., etc. But the non-X sites don't allow X networking. Thus, those models omit any mention of their X-rated work. Considering we're talking about somebody's favorites in doing glam or art work, it would appear the contention lots of us have had is true: Adult models are relaxed and capable when it comes to other work, whether it involves nudity or not. Their easy-going demeanor when it comes to glam makes them great to shoot. It's a walk in the park compared to their "day jobs." So, why would there be any surprise that at least some of the best models are from the porn arena?
