Touche.

Trends: a lot of films are becoming plot-driven pieces and there's an uptick in movies that require real acting and seek to incorporate both men and women viewers.

Shift: There's going to be a move to virtual reality porn, as well as the continuing trends of new technology entering into the industry and causing us to shift how we film and who we market it to.

That's a GREAT question. I imagine it all depends on the person & their reasoning for wanting to get involved.

If it's the stereotypical "I just want to have sex," then no - because it's a lot more work than people expect, and you have to have real dedication to make a name for yourself.

For some, it's very liberating and lucrative. For others, with the wrong intentions, it could lead to problems they may not be properly equipped to handle.

I attended an expo in a non-porn friendly town (in the south). We were all staying in the host hotel, and immediately after the after party (which was open to fans), a group of protestors attacked several of the stars. As one of the people attacking was an under cover cop, there were no arrests made, we weren't able to get our hands on a copy of the security cam footage, etc. It was a nightmare, and quite scary to be honest.

You'd be surprised. Drugs, from what I hear, were very prevelant back in the day, but I personally have never been offered anything hard - not once. Haven't seen it either. I think the industry has taken a big turn when it comes to professionalism and want to work with the stars that are going to actually show up and do their job.

Marriages/Kids: Honestly, it's the same as any other group of celebrities in Hollywood. There are a number that remain married and have happy relationships within the industry, but overall...it's the same as Ben & Jen or Brangelina, lol.

I wouldn't say sexual abuse is any more rampant in the past of porn stars than in the past of your average women in this country. As sad as it is, the vast majority of women as a whole have had something happen to them at some point in their lives - there really isn't a correlation when it comes to them going into porn later.
