Mom's a Porn Star

Momlogic.com, a blog site specifically for mothers, has a great series that has been running on their page called "Secrets in the Suburbs," where stories from several undercover lifestyles of seemingly "everyday" women (particularly mothers) have surfaced and been featured.


This post reminded us of the critically acclaimed, dramatic feature film Cookies & Cream, of course, a film about a single mother who takes a porn job to take care of her daughter and herself, and thought this would be an interesting (and controversial) read about a real life mother/porn star. Here it is below:






Meet Jamie, a 27-year-old mom of two--a 7- and 2-year-old--who spends her nights as an adult entertainer!


"Jamie revealed to momlogic that pizza delivery and telemarketing just weren't cutting it, so she became a webcam girl. And in just the past two years, became a porn star. She juggles her kids' school activities around shooting sex scenes--and you thought you had a lot to balance!


ML: How did you get into the adult entertainment business?

Jamie: I actually started as a maternity nude model. After I had my child, I started doing that again along with solo nudes and solo video. I was also doing webcam shows at the time. My fiancé was a car salesman at the time working 12 to 14 hours a day, 6 days a week and only bringing home maybe $3000 a month. We needed more money to support our growing family, so we agreed that porn would be a good idea for us. I got online one day and searched out adult agencies here. I found a couple that I liked and emailed them some pictures. The next day, an agency made me a good offer, and I was on a flight two days later. I flew from Texas to California and stayed out here for two weeks. It was hard being away from the family, but I made great money. I came home and helped pack things and we drove out for good a week later. We've been here for 2 1/2 years and I'm still in porn. My fiancé also made his way in and we are doing really well.


ML: When you worked as a webcam girl, were most of your clients married men?
Jamie: No, I would say half of my clients were younger guys from other countries and half were married men.


ML: How did you make the switch from webcam girl to porn star?
Jamie: I made the switch from webcam girl to porn star because webcam just wasn't enough for me. I wanted the money and the adventures you get from being a porn star. Plus after six months of doing webcam shows day after day, it gets a little boring. Although, I still do webcam shows in my spare time or on off seasons when companies aren't shooting as much, which is usually in the summer. I like the extra cash, and it's exciting when you're not doing it day after day.


ML: What was the most unusual thing you were asked to do as a webcam girl? And as a porn star?
Jamie: The most unusual thing I was asked to do as a webcam girl was a "pee" show, and I had to turn that down.The most unusual thing I've done as a porn star would be a movie that was all about milk enemas--now that was unusual.


ML: How do you balance being a mom and porn star?
Jamie: It's actually simple to balance being a porn star and a mom. I just have to watch what I wear and what I say around the kids!


ML: When you go to school activities with your children, do you tell the other moms what you do?
Jamie: My children have school functions every once in a while. I notice some guys will stare more than others, and I feel like they have most likely seen my movies. The moms, I think, are clueless. So when people ask what I do, I tell them I'm a trust fund baby, and on occasions I do a little modeling and leave it at that. There are times when I freeze up when people ask or when I go to greet someone I'll accidently introduce myself as Allison, which is my stage name. That makes for an awkward moment.


ML: Does your family know?
Jamie: When I began doing porn, I instantly told my mom and my two older sisters what I was doing. They laughed and joked about them wanting to do it too. I kept it from my dad, but he found out about a year into it. A friend of his told him he saw me on a Web site. My dad called me and was really upset. He's a farmer and very religious, so he didn't take it well. But he calmed down and he just accepts it now.


ML: What's the best thing about being a porn star? And a mom?
Jamie: The best thing about being a porn star is the money and the parties. The best thing about being a mom and a porn star would have to be the time I get to spend with my kids. I'm only at work maybe three times a week for just a couple of hours. The rest of the time I'm spending with my kids. It's great! I couldn't imagine working a lot and being away from my kids for many hours at a time.


ML: What's your schedule like?
Jamie: My schedule is kind of crazy, because I know my call time maybe a couple days ahead of time and sometimes last-minute. But I make sure to only work three days a week and my hours are very short. Shoots take from 1 hour to 4 hours. If it's a feature, it could take 12 hours, but they try to get you out as quickly as possible.


ML: Are there a lot of moms in the porn business?
Jamie: Yes, actually I have met a lot of moms in the business. They like it because of the money and the short hours. If you're a single mom, it's great and an easy way to take care of your kids financially.


ML: When they're old enough will you tell your children what you do for a living?
Jamie: Well, I've met a lot of older people that have been in the business for years that have kids and grandkids. They told their kids what they did for a living and their children seem pretty normal. So, yes when my kids get to the age where they would understand, I will tell them what I do.



The next time you see that hot mom carting her kids around, you may think twice when she tells you she's in the "service business" or a "trust fund baby," because she could be the one entertaining your husband at night!"
