Daily Beast: Porn Stars Reflect on 2014

LOS ANGELES — Wrapping up the quickly fleeting year, retired porn performer and habitual Daily Beast contributor Aurora Snow queried several top porn stars about their highlights from 2014.

“When The Daily Beast reached out to porn stars about their most memorable moments of 2014, there weren’t any stories about wild orgies or piles of cocaine,” Snow writes. “Instead we heard about hard working business minded stars, a few sexual escapades, and one porn star’s venture into the legal marijuana business. The days of the empty-headed blonde are behind us. We like wild chicks who can think, too.”

Bonnie Rotten said that launching her production company Mental Beauty stood out as the most memorable event of the year. “I have learned a lot about productions and the abilities I have in this realm,” she told The Daily Beast. “In 2015 I am looking forward to working with more people in the industry and doing crazier and crazier scenes! Also testing my abilities as a director and producer to create content that people love.”

Penthouse Pet Justine Joli said that, in addition to deciding to remain an adult model for a while longer, she is getting back to her roots, in food, by focusing on her pot beef jerky business, GreenFairyEdibles.com.

Meanwhile, veteran star Alana Evans reports that 2014 has seen the launch of her music career — a lifelong dream of hers. “Because of porn, I never thought music would be a reality for me,” she said. “I’m not going to be the next Madonna, but I’m just so happy to be living my dream.”

Other adult stars who discussed their most memorable moments of year include Ashley Sinclair, Layton Benton, James Bartholet, Liv Aguilera, Riley Steele, Misty Stone, Britney Amber, Lotus Lain and Selma Sins.
