I'll just lay out some facts/thoughts on the general topic of Porn Stars:
1. The concept of a "Star" in the porn industry grew out of a desire to create a system parallel to the Hollywood Star ideal. "Hollywood" (i.e.: The big money studios and producers) would sign an actor to a multi-film contract, then invest heavily in movie production, advertising, premier events, creating press "buzz", etc., to get the public to see the movies with their stars. In the 80's and 90's the porn industry tried to emulate this model for the same reasons - to get people to watch their movies. But the internet changed all that by greatly reducing the cost to distribute adult content directly to the public. So in the last 20 years, the porn industry Star system has been diminishing, as big dollar studios and producers have had to compete with home-grown content providers.
Now a "porn star" could be anyone who (based on their own criteria) decides they have a significant following for their content that they should be considered a star
Yes, there are still the traditional stars around, typically signed with a professional agent and perhaps "signed" by the current major content producers, as well as being noticed by industry media like AVN. But they are only a shadow of the 80's and 90's stars like those named above.
2. Some porn stars have been escorting since the beginning of porn. The methods, visibility and access to this service has varied widely with the times. And perhaps, again with the help of the internet, awareness and access to everyday mongers to porn star escorts has never been easier.
3. A porn star is not a sex goddess (or sex god, if that's your thing). Any given scene you see in a porn movie is scripted (even gonzo is still directed), placed on a controlled set with a director and crew. The final 20-30 minute supposedly spontaneous scene you see is probably the result of days of planning, hours of set design and production work, hours of footage shot a few minutes at a time according to a shoot schedule (BJ, BJ POV, Deepthroat, 69, Mid, Doggy, etc.) and careful editing to harvest the best shots and assemble the best sex story fantasy that fits the directors vision.
When you book a porn star escort, you want the 30-minute finished product fantasy. But you get a human, who might need to stop a position when her leg cramps, or need to go pee, or doesn't really look that hot in that position without makeup and lights, etc. So yes, generally expect a porn star to be skilled due to experience, but don't expect it to be orders of magnitude better than any other sex you've had JUST because she has been on video many times. That doesn't mean you won't have an unforgettable experience.
Just understand that your enjoyment is as much due to her fulfilling YOUR fantasy as it is her proficiency at a specific sex act or projected attitude towards you. "Oh yes, Daddy! Fuck my tight little hole!" does not mean she necessarily connects with you as her sexy role play Daddy. Ask yourself this: If you did not know she was a porn star, would you still get the same satisfaction? Would you still pay $1,000 to $3,000 or more for a AVN-proclaimed Star?
4. As with all providers, not all porn star escorts are alike. Don't expect that each PS escort will have the same menu/rules/service as others. And don't expect that you will get the same services she performed in your favorite scene. Just like any provider, each one stays only within their own comfort level. So do the same level of research before you book as you would for any provider.
Having said all that, I have been fortunate to spend quality time with 5 porn star escorts. Fortunately for me, 2 are have become good friends and we message regularly between bookings about non-booking stuff.
So what criteria should be used to classify a provider as a porn star? Whatever criteria YOU think works for you.
Life is good
