WTF Makes a Pornstar, a Pornstar? - GoFuckYourself.com

Cole Montana · 01-02-2006, 09:44 AM

I keep hearing about how this person's and pornstar, that person's a pornstar, but I see them and I just go, ok...why?

What I'm asking is, how is a girl "officially" labled a Pornstar? Appearing in a DVD? Covergirl of a DVD? Appearing on a website doing porn? Appearing in a pornographic mag? Or all the above?

I'll call her whatever she wants as long as she show's her ta-tas

seeric · 01-02-2006, 09:52 AM

dick in pussy or mouth = pornstar.

lesbo and glamour = not pornstar.

NoHassleSteve · 01-02-2006, 09:52 AM

If I was in charge of it... "pornstar" would be reserved for people so known
for it that they are as close to household name as practical.
Like Ron Jeremy, Jenna Jameson, old school legends like Ginger Lynn, and
maybe some that Howard Stern has on so often that they become well-known.

BUT, in reality "pornstar", at least for the women is a label they slap on
as soon as they think it will increase their rate as an escort or feature dancer.

Willingness to blow me is what makes a porn star a porn star.

You would consider amateur cam girls porn stars?

Sex on film = pornstar

this is where we cam up with our AmPornstar logo, for the amateurs. But after someone labeling Elise in another thread as a pornstar, I was like no way. So not. Jenna yes, Torrey Wells yes, Ginger Lynn yes, Elise? who's that?

Doctor Dre · 01-02-2006, 10:06 AM

What makes a girl a pornstar ? Pretty good looking, know how to look dirty and good in front of the camera, and a good agent.

What does beeing a pornstar mean ? and at what point you are called a pornstar ? well basicly... any girl that does porn call herself a pornstar.

EroticySteve · 01-02-2006, 10:09 AM

it should be written out at porn "star"

A guy who's in a high school band that plays in a battle of the bands isn't a Rockstar.

Violetta · 01-02-2006, 10:37 AM

as long she is a slut, fucks for money and somebody caught her on film, then she is a pornstar

Cole Montana · 01-02-2006, 10:40 AM

I so agree, actors in Indy Films are called movie stars, right? Or are they?

tristan_D · 01-02-2006, 06:03 PM

are you trying to differentiate "porn stars" from "porn actors?"

really? hm...so the lady next door to me that did a home video that got handed around the office is a porn star?

Brother Bareback · 01-02-2006, 06:06 PM

i personally think if you are listed on more than 5-10 REAL box covers from major studios, then you are a porn star

if you have some dvd's some crappy no named company released, then you are a video girl or something like that

but the key word in porn star is STAR....there are a lot of porn girls, but very few are stars

Brother Bareback · 01-02-2006, 06:07 PM

or wait...another way to describe it

if you are featured on a box cover, or you are in the STAR of a particular movie, then you are a porn STAR

if you are filler content for dvd's and never really in the spot light, then you are a porn chick

I consider an adult performer a 'porn star' when they've gotten a good amount of mainstream media attention. I consider Mary Carey to be a 'porn star' even though she's barely done 50 adult films and most of those were girl/girl, because of the vast number of times I've seen her in the mainstream media. I've also noticed at fan events that she's got a huge line of people waiting to meet her, just like the Queen of Porn, Jenna Jameson.

A content model I know once told me that You're a porn star after being on X amount of covers and or X amount of films, It made sense, Wish I could remember the exact numbers she had told me.

But lately it's being used on everyone out there.
