Question
i really want to be a porn star how do a 27 year old black man with 17 bullets in him get on
Hey Michael,
Appearance is very important in the adult industry for a man. If you've watched porn movies in the past, you'll notice that the male performers are almost always physically fit. They also choose performers who can get an erection on cue, maintain an erection throughout a sex shoot, and then ejaculate on command. Sometimes, this is just as important as looks.
Your bullet wounds are what you make of them. You can promote yourself as the "50 Cent" of the porno industry. Or you can cover up with make-up before you make a movie.
But, none of this really matters as much if your penis can't "perform" (erection and ejaculation on cue). If you can achieve this, then try different marketing techniques to showcase your bullet wounds.
When you take pictures of yourself, make sure that the photographs look somewhat professional with appropriate lighting. There are a number of adult directories you can submit your photos and information to (sexyjobs.com). Erotic Model and Talent Agencies also feature submission forms on their websites. You can submit photos and stats about yourself to them. Almost all of them ask if you have any distinguishable marks (ex: tattoos, scars, piercings) So make sure to list your wounds.
Again, your scars don't have to hinder you from being in the porn industry!
Good luck!

if you are seeking information on how to break into the adult industry, how to use pornography to enhance your sex life, how to find pornography that turns you on, and also how to make a living as an adult performer - then I'm the lady to speak to! Getting into the adult industry can be easy, but to survive in the industry and find the best direction for yourself in this field is essential. As a former porn actress, I understand the pitfalls and successes that the porn industry has to offer. Pornography is a business, one that is patronized by a majority of us - whether it's by downloading a piece of an adult movie or buying a book by Jenna Jameson. You, too, can become a part of this industry. But, avoiding the mistakes and scams will make it easier for you. Also, knowing the pay rate and how to successfully chart your career will help you stay focused while having fun on set. For those not interested in getting into porn, you might want to consider how adult films can help your sex life. Maybe you're searching for the right type of smut to satisfy you and/or your lover for a night, or maybe you want to make a private movie of your own. Contact me for help and guidance. PLEASE DON'T ASK ME ABOUT LEGALITIES, LICENSES, PERMITS, OR ABOUT WHAT YOU LEGALLY NEED TO START YOUR OWN PORN BUSINESS -- i will prove unhelpful. Sorry.
