And reading the words of some of these girls, who have been s*x-trafficked and forced into p*rn, and all of these stories of girls whose lives have been ruined by it and by men, who have taken advantage of them, and by contracts that they didn’t even understand the jargon of, it makes me feel like, okay, maybe it was good that I started talking.”

“I think post-traumatic stress kicks in mostly when I go in public. Because of the stares I get, I feel like people can see through my clothes. And it brings me deep shame. It makes me feel like I lost all rights to my privacy, which I did because I am just one Google search away.”
Despite completely disassociating herself from the adult film industry, her old videos still top the chart. She is now a media personality and earns a lot of money from her assets.
