Time will tell... It's been really tough trying to follow Lexi's career the last few years. She never gave up featuring, has made a " halfhearted " ( sorry, Lexi ) attempt at her " own " website ( same goes with her ONLYFANS effort ). Teases with a " sampling " of G/G scenes from time to time and is a fixture at industry shows ( AEE & Exxxotica ). She leaves the door open to a return but then randomly talks about her dream of leaving adult and going into seclusion. I truly do adore Lex, but her actions definitely are worthy of periodic " head scratching ".
Her work for Girlsway has been fantastic. And a new scene for them alongside Alexis Fawx and then Jenna Sativa in time for Christmas which should keep up the 5* vids for Girlsway. Wouldn't mind seeing her work for Lesbian X at some point soon. Maybe renew one of my old favourite GG pairings in herself and Tori Black.

One of the most electrifying performers you will ever see, totally GND with a gleam in her eyes that would shame Lucifer himsef. She's the whole package: awesome ass, great breasts and a pussy that's delicious whether she is sporting a carpet or hardwood floor.She should have her spot in the hall of fame - she's the next Sunny Lane in sheer awesomeness. Sinful Scorpio, Passionate Aries
She needs quick and easy money to sustain her life without going back to porn since she doesn't have any college degree! I don't think she would enjoy living in seclusion either. A lot of pornstars talks about going back to school, but they're lazy or fear discriminations. It's better to them to live in their inner circle and be ignorant & forgetful.
^ pretty simplistic analysis here... Not sure how much of it applies to Lexi. For near on three years now she has separated herself from her " inner circle " in order to evaluate her future plans. Doesn't look " ignorant " or " forgetful " to me. Actually, it appears to be " intelligent " and " thoughtful ". She had a highly successful career and it might be harder than you think to transition out of it. After all, aren't we all in it for financial security? My earlier " head scratching " comment was that of a fan regarding where her " future plans " will go. For someone lacking a college degree, she is pretty savvy in keeping her fans guessing.
We're all just here speculating and besides she doesn't need to explain her personal aspects of her life to fans. She seems to be doing fine by using her pornstar fame to get non-porn gigs. However, there are ex-pornstars that went back in to porn because of severe financial difficulties. Some even put up a donation page.
Never asked nor am I focusing on " personal aspects of her life ". Her private life is hers and I'm sure she manages it just fine. My " head scratching " comment surrounds her " Lexi Belle " career "... Is she returning or is she leaving the biz? The last 3-4 years she's been wrestling with THAT. Like I said before, there is nothing " typical " about her career in adult and that's probably why I like her and... as a " fan " , I am totally free to ask: " Is you in or is you out, girl ??? "
I have no idea if she has her own site and shoots B/G there, but she's never hidden the fact that she really only enjoys shooting G/G when it comes to mainstream, and good for her for wanting to hook up with some of the most beautiful ladies in the industry. I honestly don't think it's entirely a money issue neither otherwise other G/G studios would have hooked her up with work no doubt. She enjoys the cut of Girlsway jib too.

Saw her as Nollie in her debut and I have to say, you can tell from the way she carries herself to the almost cocky way she talks to the camera - that you are looking at a cornerstone of the industry in sheer productivity and performance. I saw her in a BTS with Mark Wood and you just see this little transformation on her face where the inner sex kitten bares her claws, you can't help but imagine that this is one of those women who would come up to you and tell you she is going to fuck you 60 ways from Wednesday. At first you'll roll your eyes until several hours later when she's drained your balls and left you absolutely exhausted yet she still has the energy somehow to sit on your face. Sinful Scorpio, Passionate Aries
^^ While I do agree with your report on Lexi's allure, I have to say I didn't see that in her first effort. As Nollie, she seemed to be a bit overwhelmed by the XXX experience and maybe ( I cringe as I write this... ) that was part of her early charm. She certainly developed that demeanor you so eloquently presented but THAT was as she became Lexi Belle.

How do I put it? I admit freely that it takes time to refine your skills and personality but there's no denying the hunger and the sass/cockiness that is present is Nollie - yes it became more present as Lexi Belle but you have to start somewhere. Kenna James - I wasn't into her originally in her first scenes that she's fond of but as she developed her own unique pornstar/Girl Nextdoor touch - I got more into her. The talent has to be there first, you can work on smoothing out the rough edges later. Sinful Scorpio, Passionate Aries
^I think part of it is that some are unable to accept no for an answer. If her position changes in the future then fine, but until then, I think a well-adjusted response is to accept their answer (not intended as a specific attack on anyone here just to be clear ) Edited by - 4theheart on 1/23/2018 3:59:20 PM

^ I don't take your post personally. All I meant by my post is that a lot of these girls say one thing then do another and sometimes very shortly after they have a made a "definitive" pronouncement. And because of that I take any porn girl's announcements with a grain of salt, that's all. Maybe Lexi never will do b/g again. As far as I'm concerned if she does, hey, great, but if she doesn't that's fine with me too.
Well, She probably doesn't want to be typecast as a milf since they tend to do that even before a girl turn 30. She still want to be cast as young and innocent teens doing geeky stuffs. Yeah, She still got the youthful face, but her skin and body shape doesn't conceal her age. Besides, There's too much competitions and people just pirate or stream porn. I don't think porn pays as much anymore even if she does make a comeback. Nowadays, someone need to come off from some type of scandal in order for her to make a lot from just one scene. She's probably making more by selling merchandise, attending porn conventions, dancing at strip clubs, streaming on cams, investing in her own business, and from lonely guys buying her gifts from wish list.
^I can't be certain but I seriously doubt that she gives a rats ass whether she gets tagged as a milf in a future video. Most porn performers don't care because while they may know what type of video they are starring in. They get paid based on the sex act they do in the video and not the way it gets promoted. Granted if Lexi comes back then she isn't playing a teenager but then again I don't think she was tagged as one the last time she did porn. I think porn pays about the same now as it as for the last few years so that's not the reason why she wouldn't want to do another scene. No the main reason is that many performers can now make a lot more money from other sources than porn. Sources I might add where they don't have to worry about getting another STI. A source where they don't even have to get fucked for an hour. In the case of Lexi. She does multiple city stripping tours and cam shows so she probably doesn't have all that many time to do a porn scene and probably doesn't need the money. I think you will see Lexi do more porn the day she notices that she is less in demand in the stripping circuit and/or she is having trouble getting people to pay for her cam shows. I think that is why Tori Black and Teagan Presley came back and did some porn videos. Of all the different types of entertainment industries. Porn is probably the biggest one driven by a need to add new blood.
I just quote what she said from her cousin's podcast a few years ago that playing a wife offended her. They also tries to humanize and tackle a bit of the moral aspect of porn by talking a bit about her past and personal life along with some rising competitions if I remember correctly. I guess she probably got some sugar daddies that would buy her a lot of luxury products. Speaking of luxury, Veronica Rodriguez is one of the few that obnoxiously brags and rant a lot. It irks me that she still ask for fans to donate for her father's surgery instead of paying for it herself. Promotion is still pretty big these days especially when there are some very good looking girls that doesn't get a lot of attentions at all.

Most come back to shooting scenes eventually. It's direct, quick, guaranteed money. Camming is a lot of work over time and you have to keep it fresh to keep getting basically the same guys tipping night after night. Eventually the audience gets bored and the wallet closes. Stripping can lucrative, but performers often end up needing to shoot at least some scenes to stay out there and keep getting noticed. It's marketing for their dancing.
^No they don't. The vast majority of porn performers who also cam never actually stop performing so much as slow down their porn output. Probably because they make more money from camming and other methods. The number of performers that have left the industry for a couple of years or more almost never come back and the few that do barely shoot more than a tiny amount of videos. I have to also disagree with you on camming being a lot harder than doing porn. In camming you are primarily doing solo stuff with the odd use of toys. In porn that kind of video exist but that's not where most performers get the bulk of their money. They instead get it from performing in b/g porn with a strong demand for them to perform anal but even if many will never have to do anal. I don't think getting fucked for over an hour by a large dick man in uncomfortable position is in any pleasurable for the woman. Now some would argue that camming is more time consuming and while I agree that a woman may have to spend more time online. I suspect that your average porn performer spends upwards of fours hours in and around a porn set for what will end up being a 30-45 minute long scene so is that ultimately about the same time she spends camming? I will say it again. The only reason for an ex-performer to come back to porn is to get her name back out there and remind her fans that she is still around (albeit not in porn) and also to acquire new fans.
She doesn't strip in clubs or go on camsoda a lot though. She used to film like 10+ scenes each month during her peak, so idk. Streaming replace Physical DVD sales, which include legal and piracy from sites like pornhub, so I assume they don't pay as much anymore. There's so many girls coming in and out. She probably can return to one of the bigger studio for a scene or two from time to time that guarantee a good pay. A lot of retired pornstars still put up with their porn persona/alter ego act on cam, strip, attend events, and try to sell pics/merch like daisy Marie and adrenalynn. It make sense since they're married with kids. I don't see them returning unless they're desperate for money.
^I am more than happy to have a discussion with you and any other poster but there are some ground rules that I think we should all agree on. The first is that saying something as a fact when it isn't makes it really hard to have that discussion because one person invents things and the other uses facts. Case in point your last post. I highly recommend that you visit Lexi's twitter feed and read her most recent tweets and then you may want to amend your last post to reflect what I am sure you will read is her true situation regarding stripping and camming.

With the sheer body of work and I mean that both figuratively and literally speaking - forgetting Lexi Belle would be near impossible. There are are some performers that just have the entire package that screams sex kitten along with a side of sweetheart and Lexi definitely fits this to a T. You would have to be a homosexual man to sit next to her on a train, plane or car and not end up pitching a tent in your pants which you would then require a blanket to keep over you at ALL times. Sinful Scorpio, Passionate Aries
^While I agree with you that forgetting Lexi is near impossible. Never knowing that she did porn or having a hard time finding her stuff isn't because she has been more or less retired from performing for at least 5 years. That is an eternity when talking about performers. You and I know who she is and probably saw a huge amount of her stuff when it was first released but how many people under the age of 25 really know who she is? How many of them have actually seen her doing porn in her prime? How many don't care all that much about a now 30 years old ex-porn performer because they have their own current favorite eating all their porn dollars? It's a fact that the longer a performer is out of the industry the harder it is for her to remain in the minds of fans. Especially when there are so many other performers who are just coming into the industry and who are gaining in popularity.
^ interesting question: Lexi does Feature Dancing. According to theories here, porn stars make a lot of their money with such engagements and use porn for promoting such dancing activities. Is there a Feature Dancing scene (and demand) for GG performers? I mean, does the theory hold? Or does Lexi still draw from her fame of BG porn when engaging in Feature Dancing?
^I don't think many past or present performers make the bulk of their money from stripping but it's different in the case of someone like Lexi because she does do a significant amount of stripping(based on her twitter) and the rest of her money seems to come from camming(again from her twitter). I counted the number of lesbian and solo scenes she as listed on IAFD for 2017 and 2018 and the total number is 18. Assuming that she got paid market rate (ie 500$) than her total possible earning would be 9000$ and while she make have gotten paid more money than that. I suspect that amore than a couple of those videos were in the can for longer than a year and therefore she had already been paid for those. I doubt that she could live on 9000$ a year so she definitely needs other source of income. I don't know if she escorts so unless she doesn't than the bulk of her money comes from doing other stuff than porn(Of course you have to understand that I don't consider camming to be porn). I don't know if there is a stripping circuit dedicated to mostly lesbian performers but I would think that lesbian only performers might have a bit more appeal than their hetero counterpart because if you can also get a private strip from those lesbian only performers than you will get closer to them than most men can ever claim to have done. I don't know if I'm in left field with this but I have always thought that the rare b/g videos of lesbian only performers are significantly more appealing than if those same women did multiple b/g videos.

That guy always comes through with a hyperdetailed soliloquy.
