WHO the #$%@ made it so that if you're even an EXTRA on a porn set, you're AUTOMATICALLY allowed to call yourself a porn "STAR?!"
This is the ONLY industry I know of where you're allowed to use the designation "star" to describe yourself, despite sometimes having LIMITED experience.
And THAT "designation" carries A LOT of weight... in the form of a HUGE jump in a "pro's" asking "price."
Think of it... one day, a lady is shakin' her fanny on a stipper pole in Peoria for mere BUCKS an hour, next thing you know, she makes the BRIEFEST of appearances on a "vid," and she thinks she's ENTITLED to $1.3-1.7/hr.
WTF?!
How do we ALLOW this INSANITY to continue?
These ladies should be LAUGHED out of the game.
If a TRUE star, like a "Lisa Ann," or a "Ava Addams," wants to put that out there, at least they have a LEGIT reason (and catalog!) to back that up.
But someone who's basically a porn "fluffer?"
GTFOH!
And for that, I gotta blame OURSELVES, at least those willing to part with that kinda loot just so they could brag that they saw some "PS."
A serious "OVERCORRECTION" in rates is LONG overdue, fellas.
It's gotta start SOMEWHERE...
