Question

What if people don't accept me after becoming a porn star?

Community Answer

This is something you need to consider when you decide to become a porn star. If people judge you for it, that's not unexpected, but it's not necessarily right or fair either. As long as you're becoming a porn star by choice, and you're not being abused or mistreated in the industry, then there's no reason that they should have a problem with it. If they do, they should keep it to themselves. I would recommend distancing yourself from anyone who judges you for becoming a porn star; they aren't worth your time.

Question

Can I do this if I don't show my face?

Community Answer

While there is a market for faceless (or masked) porn, the market is small and your paycheck will reflect this. There are some actors who keep their faces hidden either through the use of camera angles, carefully placed hair, or masks.

Question

I'm 19, how do I apply?

Preston Michael Simpson

Community Answer

It's like most modeling and acting agencies. You send in a few photos of yourself and a resume if you have experience (as a stripper, dancer, model, actress). Since legal age requirements are enforced, you may also have to send identification documents such as a birth certificate.

Question

Do porn stars pretty much have sex all the time? And do they wear condoms?

Community Answer

Each actor has their own rules. Some do not require condoms, most do. Who they will work with and who they will not work with is listed for each actor. They do not have sex all the time, but are required to be able to have sex on demand and for extended periods of time.
