Ex-Porn star Lana Rhoades slams X-rated industry: ‘Make it illegal’

Lana Rhoades, a former porn star, is criticizing the field that helped launch her career and calling for its “illegal” status.

Between 2016 and 2017, Rhoades—real name Amara Maple—worked in the industry for eight months, making appearances in more than 250 racy movies.

The 26-year-old brunette admitted to still being traumatized by the incident on Wednesday’s episode of “The Skinny Confidential Him & Her” podcast, saying, “I simply I don’t think that it’s good for anyone. They ought to outlaw it.

Rhoades, who recently disclosed she had a child with an unidentified NBA player, claims she was clueless about what she was getting into when she starred in her first X-rated film at the age of 19.

“For some reason I never comprehended that to do porn you actually have to have sex with people,” she said, claiming she had only been intimate with one person before making her industry debut.

The native of Illinois claimed that the lavish lifestyles of Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends on the television show “The Girls Next Door” inspired her to enter the porn industry.

Before moving to Los Angeles to launch her professional porn career, Rhoades worked as a waiter, then as a stripper. The young man achieved swift popularity and racked up 345 million views on Pornhub, making him the site’s most popular porn performer.
