What do you consider an "alt" porn star?
who, that is a mainstream performer, would you consider "alt"
Would you like to see more alt girls in mainstream work?

Joanna Angel personifies the alt porn star now. Girls like you are the new generation that are coming up behind her and following her lead. 10 years ago there was no Alt Porn; if there were any tattooed performers, there were very, very few. Now there's a ton of you, which is good, because people like me love that kind of stuff. I'd say that you definitely personify an Alt porn star now, as well.

I think labels like "alt" and "mainstream" can and will be interpreted so many ways by so many different people that they don't mean much. If you work in porn, I'd say that's an "alternative" to mainstream movies period. It seems like if a girl has a certain look, tats and died hair, that's labeled "alt". Labels are kind of empty when you think about it.

I think its lame that girls on Joanna Angels site and similar are labelled "alt" and get pushed into the fringes of porn, You included. I think so far the only girl outside of Joanna who's done well enough in the mainstream is Andy San Dimas. I hope it changes actually.
The majority opinion of this site pisses me off too. Its like every single girl with any tattoo should be barred from porn because they don't comfirm to the "standard". Personally i love just about all "alt" girls. Got plenty of Burning Angel stuff in my dvd collection, and most my "mainstream" favs have/had a tattoo of some sort, some pretty big (Flower Tucci, Juelz Ventura and Olivia O'lovely for example)

I'm assuming it's Joanna Angel or Dana Dearmond, but the hottest alt-porn star I have ever seen is Rory Tonic.

Any girl without tats is alt.
Without tats or fake boobs is super-alt.
Without tats or fake boobs, and no anal is mega-alt.

Andy San Dimas fits both categories quite nicely.

Let's face it, "alt porn" was just a crappy branding exercise by companies such as Vivid that never really meant anything, except slightly more tattooed and pierced girls than in normal porn (only very slightly!) doing it with underfed, unwashed, lank-haired, dudes in dark basements with the vague suggestion that drugs had somehow been involved.
I think we have all moved on since then ...

Alt porn was something Vivid experimented with for a while.
Offshoot of the "riot grrrl" look. They look like female punk rockers.
Boots and sneakers instead of heels. Lot of tattoos and piercings.
Spiked hair or hairdos like little girls would wear like bangs and
pigtails. Lot of them are lesbians. That's the look for the girls.
In general I hated the look. I don't like women who look like boys.
It's just not that sexy to me. The curvier girls like Joanna Angel
and Charlotte Stokely could pull it off but the skinnier girls look
like boys. For example, Dana Dearmond and Kimberly Kane are much hotter
now that they dumped that riot grrl look.
I think Joanna Angel was the first do take the riot grrl look and shoot
hardcore porn with girls that had that look. But Vivid was the first to
coin that term "alt-porn" I think?
Vivid's alt movie directors seemed to like the retro 70s or
80s look or lof artsy fartsy type stuff. Some of them were shot by
failed film student rejects like Ashley Blue's husband. I give Vivid
credit for doing it because I hated the crap they put out with Paul
Thomas directing and the alt stuff was more hardcore with anal and
rougher sex. Some of them were directed by Kimberly Kane also. Overall
I think a couple of them were pretty good but most were kinda weak.
But in general I preferred them to the crap Paul Thomas put out.
Joanna Angel's movies are hotter but lower budget than the stuff Vivid
put out.

In most scenes in porn the girls are portraýed as quite 'blonde', if you know what I mean. This despite the fact that most of them seems to be intelligent, smart and independent women when listened to under other circumstances.
Dana and Andy, who has posted in this thread, are perhaps 'alt' because their intelligence and integrity shows even in their scenes!
Just so you know, this is a compliment and not to say that they are in any way bad actresses. I happend to see strong, intelligent women as a turn-on, but sometimes I feel the industry regard this as 'alt'. Am I wrong?
