Qestion: What was first…escort or porn?
Answer: Porn came first. I started with traditional modeling about 8 years ago and gradually worked my way into boudoir and nude modeling. Now I shoot solo content, and I’ve just recently ventured into escorting.
Q: Can you tell us how all this adventure started?
A: I began creating solo adult content about a year ago. While I enjoyed it, I wanted to expand my horizons, so I got into escorting. Due to several health conditions, I can’t maintain a “normal” job. This line of work gives me the flexibility to work when I’m able and rest when I need to.
Q: Do the guests expect more from a pornstar escort?
A: It varies. I’ve had messages from people wanting all sorts of wild acts they’ve seen in porn, but those rarely turn into serious bookings. The clients who do book don’t seem to expect anything out of the ordinary.
Q: If you would have to choose between escort and porn, what would you choose and why?
A: So far, I prefer escorting. It’s simpler for me – no cameras, no extra people involved. It’s just me and my client. This setup allows me to be myself and genuinely enjoy the experience.
Q: Have you ever been booked by someone who had no idea that you are a pornstar?
A: Actually, everyone who’s booked me has done so specifically for the PSE (Porn Star Experience). Many of them follow me on Twitter or OnlyFans, so they’re well aware of my background.
Q: Most of the pornstars once they start doing escort, they quit porn. Why is that?
A: I can’t speak for anyone else, but I genuinely believe that if you screen clients correctly, escorting can be safer and easier. It offers more control over your work environment.
Q: What is the advantage of being a pornstar escort and not only an escort?
A: The main advantage is that I can charge more per hour because of my industry status. My reputation and following add value to the experience I offer.
Q: Is there something that you do as a pornstar, but you refuse to do as an escort? A: At the moment, my boundaries for both align pretty closely. If anything, I actually do more when escorting than I do for porn shoots. It’s all about personal comfort and boundaries.
Q: What is your favorite city/country for tours?
A: I live in Vegas, and it’s great there! The energy and clientele are fantastic. I’d love to tour the East Coast and hit a bunch of different cities. The variety would be exciting.
Q: What do you prefer…12 hours with the same client or a normal workday?
A: I would definitely prefer 12 hours with a client. The earning potential in that timeframe far exceeds what I’d make in a “normal” job, and it allows for a more immersive experience.
Q: Do clients like to spoil the girls they meet?
A: Sometimes. Tipping happens occasionally, and some clients enjoy bringing flowers or gifts. It’s a nice gesture that adds a personal touch to our encounters.
Q: Do you have any unforgettable experiences?
A: I’ve met some very interesting people while escorting, and I’ve had some great experiences. Each client brings something unique to the table, making this career full of memorable moments.
Q: What is the part of your body men love the most?
A: I’ve had quite a few compliments on my eyes, but many clients are particularly fond of my breasts. It’s flattering to know they appreciate both my physical attributes and my personality.
Q: Besides filming and escorting, are you doing anything else?
A: I do a lot of things on the side; I like to stay busy. I design logos and graphics and make t-shirts and other promotional items. It’s a creative outlet that complements my main work.
Q: Is a pornstar escort better paid than a normal escort?
A: I certainly charge more. My background in the adult industry allows me to command higher rates for my time and services.
Q: Would you encourage an escort to start doing porn? Why?
A: If you’re comfortable with it, it’s good exposure. But there’s a lot that goes into being on camera, and it is a lot of work on and off set. You have to be extremely active on social media as well to build and maintain your brand.
Q: Have you ever been blamed for what you do?
A: Blamed? I don’t talk to or associate with people who don’t support me. I surround myself with positive, supportive individuals who respect my choices.
Q: Is there anything that you would change about your life?
A: No. I’m happy with who I am, where I’m at, and where I’m going. This career has given me opportunities for growth and self-discovery.
Q: Have you ever refused a guest? Why?
A: I refuse anyone who doesn’t properly fill out my contact form or refuses to give their name and ID (or pay the booking fee). My safety comes before your “privacy.” I’ve also refused several people who have tried to haggle prices or speak to me disrespectfully.
Q: Between these two jobs, which one is more demanding?
A: Both are demanding in different ways. With escorting, you get a ton of guys that demand a lot but aren’t willing to pay your fees or actually book. I get messages every day from people complaining about prices or wanting to have long conversations first without committing.
Q: What’s the most unexpected request you’ve received from a client, and how did you handle it?
A: I haven’t gotten any unexpected or wild requests yet. But one guy wanted an hour date for $100, which was way below my rate. I politely declined and explained my pricing structure.
Q: How do you balance your personal and professional life, especially with such a demanding career?
A: I’ve always been good at scheduling, and I have a strong work ethic, so it’s not too difficult. I make sure to set boundaries and prioritize self-care to maintain a healthy balance.
Q: What’s your routine before a big shoot or a long appointment?
A: I always shower, shave, and moisturize before a shoot or client meeting. I strive to look polished and presentable, so I keep my nails done and take good care of my body. It’s all about attention to detail and professionalism.
Q: How do you stay motivated and passionate about your work?
A: Easily, I love what I do and I enjoy the business and the people in it. My passion for this work keeps me driven and excited about new opportunities.
Q: What’s one piece of advice you would give to someone considering a career in either escorting or adult films?
A: Be prepared. It’s a lot of work and it will not make you rich overnight. You have to work hard for it to pay off. Build your brand, network constantly, and always prioritize your safety and well-being.
Q: What are some common misconceptions people have about your profession?
A: That STDs run rampant and women are taken advantage of often. Like ANY industry, there are bad apples and issues, but it is not the industry as a whole. In most cases, you have an extremely low chance of “catching something” because everyone is constantly testing and staying safe.
Q: How do you handle privacy and security concerns given your public persona?
A: I only use my stage name and have separate email and phone numbers for work. I’m very careful about maintaining boundaries between my personal and professional life.
Q: What’s the most rewarding part of your job?
A: The friends I’ve made in the industry. The connections and support network I’ve built have been incredibly valuable both personally and professionally.
Q: Have you ever faced any significant challenges in your career, and how did you overcome them?
A: It’s always hard to break into the business, but I feel that I am finally getting traction. Persistence and networking have been key to overcoming initial hurdles.
Q: Do you see yourself continuing in this industry long-term, or do you have other career aspirations?
A: Yes, I have a long-term plan for my career in the industry. I’m committed to growing my brand and exploring new opportunities within adult entertainment.
Q: How do you maintain your mental and physical health in such a demanding industry?
A: I block those that have anything negative to say and stay with positive and supportive people. Self-care, both mental and physical, is crucial in this line of work.
Q: What’s a typical day like for you when you’re not working?
A: I spend lots of time with my pets and family. It’s important to have a strong support system and activities that help you unwind and recharge.
Q: What’s the funniest or most awkward thing that has happened during a session?
A: Nothing particularly funny or awkward has happened yet. I try to maintain a professional atmosphere, which helps prevent uncomfortable situations.
Q: Do you have any rituals or habits that help you get into the right mindset before a session?
A: Not at the moment, just shower, shave, do hair and makeup. These practical preparations also help me mentally prepare for work.
Q: How do you stay informed about industry trends and client preferences?
A: I don’t really follow trends, and clients tell me what they want out of our sessions. I focus on providing a personalized experience rather than trying to keep up with every trend.
Q: What qualities do you think make someone successful in the adult industry?
A: It’s all about networking and having a good agent. Professionalism, reliability, and adaptability are also crucial qualities for success in this field.
Q: Have you developed any close friendships within the industry?
A: Yes, several. The connections I’ve made have been one of the most rewarding aspects of this career.
Q: How do these relationships support you in your career?
A: We help each other grow and get bigger in the industry. It’s a collaborative environment where we can share advice, opportunities, and support.
Q: How do you handle days when you don’t feel like working?
A: I don’t work on those days. I know my schedule well in advance, so I make sure I am rested and ready for my commitments.
Q: Do you have any tips for staying motivated on tough days?
A: Just keep going. Remember your goals and why you started this career in the first place. It’s okay to take breaks when needed, but persistence is key.
Q: What’s one thing about your job that you wish the public understood better?
A: Just because you see us do something in a video or online in the industry does not mean that you can do or say the same to us. And don’t ever expect that because a girl is in the industry that she will want to shoot with you.
Q: How do you think this understanding could change perceptions of the adult industry?
A: Hopefully, we’d receive fewer unsolicited explicit messages from guys claiming they’re “in the industry and ready to shoot” when they’re not. It’s about respecting boundaries and understanding professionalism.
Q: What are some of the most surprising things you’ve learned about yourself since starting this career?
A: My confidence in myself and my worth has grown tremendously. This career has taught me a lot about self-advocacy and setting healthy boundaries.
Q: What role does social media play in your work, and how do you manage your online presence?
A: It plays a big role. No following equals no fans, which means no work and no money. I put a lot of effort into maintaining an engaging and professional online presence.
Q: How do you manage to keep your work exciting and prevent it from becoming routine?
A: Every shoot is different, so it always stays interesting. I also try to bring creativity and enthusiasm to each encounter, which helps keep things fresh.
Q: Have you ever collaborated with other escorts or adult performers on a project? A: Not yet, I am only solo right now. But I’m open to collaborations in the future if the right opportunity comes along.
Q: What’s the most important lesson you’ve learned from your clients?
A: Higher-paying clients are usually nicer and more respectful of you and your time. It’s taught me the value of setting appropriate rates and expectations.
Q: How has this lesson shaped your approach to your work?
A: I charge more for my time and services now. I’ve learned to value myself and my skills, which has positively impacted both my income and work satisfaction.
Q: Do you have any hobbies or interests that might surprise your clients?
A: I make t-shirts, tumblers, and other promotional items. I love designing and being creative. It’s a side of me that many clients might not expect.
Q: How do these hobbies help you unwind and recharge?
A: It keeps me creative and provides a different outlet for my energy. It’s a nice balance to the interpersonal nature of my main work.
Q: How do you set goals for your career, and what are some of your current goals? A: I want to be at the top. I want my name to be well-known and recognized in the industry. I set both short-term and long-term goals to keep myself motivated and progressing.
Q: What steps are you taking to achieve these goals?
A: Lots of networking and a long-term plan of how to get there. I’m constantly working on improving my skills, expanding my network, and building my brand.
