Your porn life carries on without you...

[max_tranmere]

Girls who have retired from porn and have completely moved on are still current pornstars in the sense that scenes they made are still sold, compilation DVD's are still put together and marketed, and people still talk about them online. I wonder if the girls concerned ever think about that. Someone like Laura Hermansen, who quit in 2003 and, presumably, is now living a life totally differnt from what she used to do, is still 'around'.

The number of movies listed starring Laura on here has increased from 69 to 71 recently, obviously those 2 new ones arent 'new' but are newly compiled compilations. She is still talked about as a pornstar (like I'm doing here) yet she is gone from the porn world as far as her present life is concerned. Enter Laura Hermansen into Google Images and hundreds of hardcore photos appear. It must be strange for someone to have put the whole thing behind them yet the whole thing is still current.

I heard Laura's old pal Melissa Walker got jailed, I wonder if Laura ever thinks about her former porn pals - like Melissa, Lee Henshaw, Angel Long, etc. She probably doesn't, but as far as the internet is concerned, and the selling of porn DVD's is concerned, Laura is still an 'active' pornstar. People still make money selling her films, yet she wouldnt see a penny of it.

What do people think about this? Do you think ex-porn girls would be bothered that they are still effectively current pornstars, thanks to the internet and thanks to the owners of the rights to their movies still selling them and making money?

If Elizabeth Taylor is still considered to be an actress when the films she is famous for are 30/40 years old and there isn't a career to speak of in the intervening period then yes, you're right Max.

My wife made 3 porn films in the mid 1970s when she was 18 (for John Lindsay). All 3 are listed on this site.

She is now 53 years old and has a very responsible job (and we have two children in their early 20s).

These films are still around and are well sought after. They can all be downloaded from various "vintage porn" web sites.

While I know about the films nobody she works with has any idea.

Of course when you are 18 you have no idea of what may happen in 30 or 40 years time (and of course the interent did not exist then).

If they've got a distinctive real name and use it for porn and don't want their adult work remembered later, I guess it could cause problems ... my bank manager Big Al Slams had to change his name by deed poll, for instance.

There should be a pornstar called Dorian Gray

I was a nan for the third time yesterday (a girl 7lb 8oz) & just like with our kids i will explain to each of them about what we do when they reach 16.
I have always stayed clear of top shelf mags, TV shows & sat as there is no control over them unlike hardcore which as only limited channels in the UK, my films have been doing the rounds for years & will be going when i'm long gone but thats the price of being a film model.
