Stormy Daniels Interviewed by N.Y. Magazine's The Cut

NEW YORK — Adult superstar Stormy Daniels was interviewed and appears in a series of black-and-white photographs shot for the latest issue of New York Magazine’s The Cut, released today.

The Cut’s Olivia Nuzzi interviewed Daniels, one of the most talked-about women of 2018 and who will grace the stage as host of the 2019 XBIZ Awards in just a few months, a week after she released “Full Disclosure,” a tell-all book that details her upbringing, rise to fame and discussion about her alleged affair with President Trump. 

The Cut’s Q&A of Daniels, titled “Stormy Daniels Didn’t Want to Be Anybody’s Hero,” also is accompanied with a three-minute video, called “The Power of Audacity With Stormy Daniels” (available here), where she discusses woman and power.

Daniels in the Q&A said the Trump experience is just a blip in her life and that “it was just so not a thing.”

“People think that it defines my life, but in all honesty, it was 12 hours of it,” she told The Cut, which describes itself as the premier destination for women with sharp, stylish minds. “It’s annoying, because I’m so much more than that, and that’s all I’ll be known as.

I wrote and directed all these great movies, I’ve directed music videos, but it’ll just overshadow all of that,” Daniels said. “Now I wonder if somebody gives me money, it will be because of this. I don’t want the other parts of my life to be successful because of this.

“I mean, I went 10 years without even thinking about it. It was funnier when he wasn’t the president. Now it comes with this undeserved prestige. I actually have Trump supporters come out and get pictures and autographs and just be like, ‘I just want to meet the lady that he picked to have sex with him.’ I’m like, ‘What’s wrong with you?’”
