The life of a pornstar... is not my life. I'm telling you- I really don't lead much of the lifestyle you imagine it would be. I swear. It's about 6pm right now... want to know what I did today? I sat on my computer and answered emails. Oh yeah, I made a bunch of phone calls too- and when people picked up I didn't masturbate, I had to discuss things like budgets, and designs, and search engine optimization... amongst other un-sexy things. It's quite similar to what a lot of other people did with their day today who do not ever have sex on camera. Unfortunately, I do not spend all day every day getting gang-banged on camera.... and a big difference between me and most porn stars, is that I don't get PAID to fuck.... I PAY other people to fuck me! Seriously! I am not trying to get any sympathy here...I love my life and everything about it I am just trying to set the record straight. Sometimes I will post things on my twitter like "today has been a stressful day...." and then I get responses like "oh yeah, getting paid to fuck- really hard!" ... I mean, when I am fucking on camera... that means, I paid, out of my pocket, for: 1. a guy or girl (or one of each, or two of each etc) to fuck me, 2. someone to photograph it, 3. someone to film it 4. someone to edit it, 5. a hosting company to host the video so it has a place to live online, and then, I just have to cross my fingers and hope that a good percentage of people decide to find this said video compelling and exciting enough to pay for so I can make all this money back that I put into it.... in this days economy. Ah! It is a tough job but someone needs to do it =)

Anyways, sometimes when I go to conventions and I am surrounded by actual "porn stars"-   I sort of feel like I am in a role-playing game. Kinda like I am playing dress-up. It's sort of fun to indulge in the stress of oh my god, what do I wear to this convention.... do my nails look OK, is my foundation on correctly, and should I wear the same outfit to the convention as I do in the evening to a party? It is such a nice vacation from the usual stress I have to deal with on a daily basis. Most of all, I love meeting fans- even though, unfortunately, not TOO many of you showed up to Miami to see me but it's cool. It was mothers day weekend- so you are off the hook. It is good to know that a good majority of the people who find my pornography arousing have good relationships with their mothers. I can respect that!

The best thing about Miami Exxxotica is that it is a lot of fun. It really is like the vacation of porn conventions. The AEE expo is kinda stressful- I always have meetings, and press and all sorts of shit I need to do in addition to the signing... and in general, the entire convention feels so .... fancy. I don't know why. There is nothing professional that goes on at Miami Exxxotica. I just signed for about 4 hours a day and spent the rest of my time on the beach, at slightly cheesy dance clubs, and at restaurants with decent food but really bad service.

Anyways, here are a few photos from the porn convention:

Here is me and a photo of Jenna Haze

Now here is me and the real Jenna Haze, in front of a photo of Jenna Haze

Here is a photo of the real me, and a fake me. We are a cute couple- right!

Here is me kissing a photo of Alexis Texas' ass- which looks exactly the same as her real ass.

Here is me and the fake me again- only this time I look kinda disgruntled.

Here is me being weird.

Here is me and one of the only porn girls I like who is tan, with blond hair and extremely fake boobs 

Here is me, in between the the two most famous sluts in the world- Sasha Grey and Jenna Haze

Um... just so you know- the photo below is not a photo of a porn-star, it is a photo of a pillow! Two pillows actually- I don't know why but the cleaning lady's in the hotel I stayed at always made the pillows look like dumplings when they made the bed. I thought that was pretty interesting and totally blog-worthy.

I have more to tell you about Miami that has lots juicy details and stuff, but I am going to post that in another blog entry- because two blog entries are better than one! YEAH!
