In regards to the above post! dexington steele, that is probably the best post ever posted on ADT. I agree fully with you. Too bad more people didn't take your approach to life. That would do far more good, then buying something for a pornstar of their wishlist!

I emailed a famous porn star recently (won't name and shame her but she's of Peruvian origin and has a big butt...)
I asked for her PO box to send a gift to, and she replied asking what value my gift was. I replied asking why she wanted to know, and she apparently only accepts gifts worth over $100 in value...
F*ck that, she's not getting anything from me now.

I see a lot of luggage on wishlists. I buy my luggage for $10 or less at thrift stores. The last one I bought is a leather duffel bag with wheels, for $5. It had a $20 bill in a pocket.

I hate waiting in line in stores, especially when there are brats screaming their lungs out. There are some times when I am almost ready to pay full retail to stay home and have stuff delivered. Having free merchandise delivered is a moderately high point of life of swallowing sewer semen and paying for STD medications.

I agree. Getting gifts for these girls is basically a wealth transfer from the bottom to the top since many of them make more than their fans.
I'm guessing it's Alexis Amore.

Who cares?
At the very basics, gifts make the girls happy, and happy girls make better porn. If nothing else, that is always there as value in exchange.
Could be worse. I know someone who took a different approach and blew through ~$50k before realizing that he cannot will himself friends with the porn-girls of his select choosing. He's probably back to spending all his free time browsing cam sites again. (he will really tear me a new one if he notices this post! hehehe)
Sometimes following someone, it's about the people you get to know along the way. Non-porn story, know a woman who has the hots for a soap actor, and thanks to the internet has gotten connected with other women across the country, and even internationally, who have the hots for the same actor. Set up a fan website, do open online chats weekly, send gifts, postcards, birthday cards, baskets, etc. all the time to him. This group of women get together periodically, travel together, have fun. The woman I know, who is married btw, when she first got an email from the soap actor, she was on cloud nine for like a whole week. So what? Now granted this scenario isn't likely to play out amongst porn perverts, but it's the same drive.
Whatever someone wants to do, we all have only one life, better to do something stupid than to never do anything. As long as someone is realistic in their expectations, who cares?

I totally feel like a idiot. I have a good job not great not struggling. I own my own home car etc. I am not a porn fanatic but i am a follower. My porn journey started with Taylor Rain and Gauge and brought me through today. With the advent of twitter i was looking forward to getting to know the girls. Whether it he Aurora Snows intelligence Kristina Rosr humour or Remy Lacroix subtle beauty and grace. I decided to break down the 4th wall with Ashli Orion first. I respected everything about her. How natural she was how attainable she seemed and how sexually free she was. I bought her some underwear and what not and got a thank you. Am i a d bag for wanting a picture of her in what i got her or something more. I felt like i was 16 again chasing the girl who would play with me until she got what she needed and then make move on. I felt ashamed of myself for thinking Ashli would give a shit. I have since got something for Chastity Lynn a showe enema and she responded thanks. I think Chastity is the epitome of a porn star. Sexy confident personable everything you would qawant perfect combo of filthy and cute.But once again i am wishing for a picture or something. I also got a vibrating butt plug and thong for Kaylee Hilton. She DMs me on twitter and is beyond a joy. Why she is not bigger confuses me. She is drop dead gorgeous has a smile that would launch a thousand ships and a winderful sensual vouce. I guess am i asking for too much. Are there other girls that reward fan gifts with gifts of there own. Glad i got thar off my chest back to work

So what kind of stuff does a porn star send out as a thank you for buying stuff on their amazon wishlist? Which girls send used panties in the mail, and what was the dollar value of the item that bagged that trophy?

I didn't even know people did this until recently. It would be easier to understand if the star would give you something personal in return, but this just seems like a complete one-way street. The used panty thing is also a weird one. How do you even know they wore them? You don't know anything about these stars.
Just remember what a pornstar is. If a girl is willing to fuck for money, which is why you're a fan, why are you just spending money on her for NO FUCKING reason? The worst part is the star you love so much probably thinks you're a creep, and the primary reason is the gifts you give her.

You're not an idiot and if you can afford to do these things and it brings you happiness then keep doing it and more power to you. I would be careful though. I would suspect at some point you're going to buy one of your fav girls a gift and you might not think the thank you you get is worthy of the gift you gave and resent the girl for it. You also need to remember that you really aren't doing anything that special. To them you're probably just one of many guys who buys them things. I'm sure they appreciate the gifts to various degrees but I'm pretty sure you giving the gifts mean more to you than receiving them means to them.
That's not a putdown to you but just something you should always remember.

I saw one well known performers amazon list, it was a list of numerous $1000 designer shoes, $3000 designer handbags and to top it all, a $520000 Mercedes.
If a girl lists interesting personal items, quirky items for $20-50, then i think its bang on fair that a fan can enjoy buying those things. A book she is going to read, a music album she is going to listen to, a set of bath salts she will be able to enjoy. Sounds like this is what Kristana Rose does and the fans enjoy purchasing such items. Power to them both.
Conversely, a girl whacking down a bunch of expensive impersonal items is just telling the fans she wants them to be her cash point. I'm sure that would girl would love to list her rent or mortgage payments if she could. That sort of mentality doesnt create the right vibe for me. Maybe she is waiting for Charlie Sheen to buy it all for her. If a diehard fan on average income really cared and saved up to buy her one of these things cos she was his absolute fave performer, id feel real bad for him.
Lets face it, its not the same relationship as buying something for your favorite comedian or musician. And while the guy may have a lot emotionally invested in that donation, the girl is just like 'oh cool, another new handbag'. If the guy is doing it because he is lonely, and she wrote that list banking on the existence of people like him to buy her the items, then its hard to see how she is not taking him for one of lifes lonely, star-eyed chumps. As for the Charlie Sheens and 6 figure salary people who buy her items, then thats different. But not a whole lot more admirable.
If i knew a guy who was long term single and spent his disposable income on buying things for his favourite pornstars, id think his life had arrived at a very sorry point.

Hmmm... That's a tough one. Depending on the comedian or musician if they're well off those gifts probably don't mean that much to them on an individual personal level. Some celebs just have all that stuff piled up somewhere and lump it all together in a place and in their minds as "Gifts from fans". Unless something really touches them or is something they really like they'll never use the majority of that stuff and might never even see some of it since they mostly have assistants to open theit fan mail.
With a pornstar she will probably more than likely wear or use what they get especially if it's something they specifically asked for. So, in that way I don't see it as quite the same as buying a well to do celeb a personal gift. Plus the fan may actually see the girl wearing the clothes or shoes in a porn movie so I would imagine that would give the gift buyer a thrill. But in the end for many pornstar it really is "Oh cool, another new handbag..." even though buying that handbag for that girl was very important for the fan. It can only mean so much for a pornstar who gets handbags from strangers (fans) on a regular basis.
In end both senarios end up being the same. The person buying the gift is looking for satisfaction/joy for themselves by buying their fav pornstar or celeb a gift. In pretty much every case the buyer will enjoy buying that gift for the pornstar or celeb much more than the pornstar/celeb receiving it no matter how much it costs. In the case of a pornstar the expectations of appreciation is higher because they are more accessible.
And as I mentioned a person usually will give for so long until they expect something back. At some point that fan is going to be annoyed that they bought "Fill in the blank" and all they got back from the pornstar is a "thanks" when they feel it should've been more. At some point it's going to be "I spent all that money on her and all she did was write "thanks" back to me! I deserve more than that for what I did.." type of thing. I can't even blame the pornstar. The gifts they receive will never be as important to them as it is for the person giving them.
Probably so. But if they're able to find some happiness from it and it doesn't hurt him where it's affecting his other responsibilites...what the heck. Let him have that to look forward to. More than likely at some point that girl will disappoint him but let him be happy until it happens.

sad but true. there are two types of people who would buy gifts for these girls.
1. the people that expect something back in return, be it dvds, sex, personal meeting, friendship, etc.
2. the people that know they will be just as anonymous after the gift as they were before and dont expect anything other than "thank you".
i just couldnt imagine buying a pornstar one of those gifts unless I at least get to meet face to face, even if just for a couple of minutes and a picture. why on earth someone would buy a complete stranger a car is beyond my level of intellect.

^ Okay let's be practical about this. I have to imagine that the percentage of fans who buy stuff for a pornstar and don't really expect anything back but a "thank you" is fairly low. It seems like some people here would be willing to buy a pornstar gifts if they got something they felt was worth it from the pornstar in return. So what do you guys think a fan should get back in return for the dollar amount spent? What would you expect from a $25 gift purchase? What should a fan get back for spending like $60 on a pair of shoes? What should a $200 pair of earrings get you? What should a fan get for the purchase of a $600 handbag? What do you get for buy a her car?
Maybe a pornstar would actually get more gifts if her fans knew what they were going to get in return. That of course isn't what actually giving a gift is about but I suspect few people are really giaving for the sake of giving anyway.

As a rough guide I would suggest:
$25 = signed photo.
$60 = signed DVD and/or signed poster.
$100 = customized photo and/or video.
$200 = private skype/web cam session.
$300 = you have developed a friendship and will receive a hug and a kiss and a few minutes of conversation when you next meet in public.
A car = the girl has earned your company a million dollars in the past financial year.

Actaully, you should get that starting at the $25 range...I've gotten that with pornstars I've never met or gave anything to at AVN conventions.

As pointed out, it's false to even call them gifts if most guys are expecting something back. To really cut through the uncertainty, stump up $1500 for an hour of her time. Bingo. [:p)]

No offence to anyone but I find it hard to understand why anyone would do this,i know i never would and i'd consider myself a generous person.Or am i missing the point and it's more about the person buying the gift making themselves feel good?A bit like there's no such thing as a selfless good deed.

I'd like to see a wishlist site organized from the other end, so we can search by items we want to give away and find appropriate recipients.

I have never done it but I would say I can be generous when I want to be. I have not done it because I normally don't have money to spare. If I did, I would certainly consider buying gifts for the girls I enjoy.
In my opinion, it's a really nice "thank you" card from a fan. Think about it. Being a female porn star is a tough job that in the end can be very thankless and unpleasant. As fans most of us will pick a few girls we really like and watch them consistently.
Some people will say porn stars make a lot of money. I don't know if that's true or not but when you think about what they put into it, it's probably not really a great return. And that's if they're top performers getting lots of work. That's not going to last forever. We all know that.
In the porn star and fan relationship, the fan generally ends up getting more out of it. A girl gives up a lot just to be in one porn flick. It's not like you're giving an expensive gift to a random girl you met on the street who never did anything to earn it.
What better way to say "Thank you" if you want her to believe you actually mean it?
You have a point. I'm not really an altruist. I do believe that in many cases, people do nice things for other people because it makes them feel good about themselves. So what? Everybody comes out happy. The girl gets a nice gift and the guy gets to feel like he gave his favorite star a little something extra just to express the fact that he enjoys her work.
No one ever said you have to. It's voluntary.
How is this bad?

I agree people can spend their money however they (legally) want. I wouldn't give my hard earned money away to someone who doesn't care if i lose my job, file bankruptcy or even die. But to each his own.
I like to think of this thing from the side of these porn girls. I dont know how they do things, but it surprises me that they wouldn't go out of their way for people who are buying them things. I know...I know...they don't HAVE to, but if they did I think it would go well for them. Something as small as following them on twitter, the occasional DM...hell maybe even a 2 minute skype session every once in a while for people who are really spending extra money on them.
I mean, they could probably sit down once a week for less than an hour and do all the communicating they would possibly need for the people buying them things. If they did things like that it would encourage more people to buy them things, and probably encourage the people already buying them things to spend more.

At a certain point wouldn't it make more sense to just be blunt and ask for sexual tabors or find out if she escorted and book a session when she is in town or fly out to where she is?!?

I don't think you need to give them any gifts prior to asking any of those questions. Of course I don't know if they will answer you.

Well, it's seems to me that she's advertising that she wants to be "Kept!"
One point to ponder, even if someone sent a gift to the girl, who is to say that the girl would actually get the gift versus someone who's answering the mail or created the wishlist without the girl even knowing?

Personally, if I was going to do it and I was going to send anything of any real value, I'd find a way to verify the authenticity of the list. I probably wouldn't send anything if I couldn't be reasonably sure.

This is the best thread I've ever read here so far!
Fascinating this is interesting!
I've just checked out some of my fave and well known current and older stars/starlets wish lists.
It is eye opening and it possibly strips away the pornographic veil for a brief moment.
And perhaps does give a very tiny insight into their current real life likes and interests.
I personally won't do it although I could
but they are all fashionistas' wanting some intelligent cool crazy sexy stuff

Some girls are so full of self-importance. I recently contacted 3 girls to ask how much I'd have to pay for a signed photo. They're all newcomers but becoming very popular recently and discussed regularly in the Star Crossed forum.
Two girls said $20 and $25 which I'm happy to pay for, but the other wanted $80 for a signed photo. I politely replied and said it was far too high for just a photo, and she replied telling me to f*ck off if I wasn't interested (I'll put that attitude down to the pot smoking). Well thanks very much - won't be watching any more of your scenes with that attitude.
As for the other 2, they sent a small surprise gift with the photo and you can really tell they want to interact with their fans. So I'll be buying more of their scenes. Backfired on the third girl who's lost a fan.

I can only go off real life experiences here, a while back I was seeing a stripper, the night we met I remember her telling me about some "pathetic nerd" who spent 2 grand on her that evening, he basically paid her just to hang out with her that night. I chatted her up, paid for a lap dance and got her phone number whereas the "pathetic nerd" spent 2k to be called pathetic.
I've just seen this happen too often, girls bragging about how this guy keeps buying shit for them and how they are not at all interested.
Guess I've just never been that guy, besides if I wanted to buy anyone a gift I'd buy my girlfriend something nice or my mom or siblings... It just seems so random going out to buy a porn star who in reality doesn't know or care about you something on their wish list.
