XBIZ: Yuri Luv Passes Away Yuri Luv, a longtime adult performer and web star who was part of affiliate program Pornstar Platinum's lineup, has passed away. She was 31. Dan Hogue, director of business development for Pornstar Platinum, delivered the news tonight on XBIZ.net. "It is with a heavy heart I write this. The entire PornStarPlatinum family is in mourning at the news of the loss of one of its family members. Yuri was found today at the age of 31," Hogue posted. "She was always kind to me and we will miss her." Details of her death were unknown at post time. ****** An article on a porn blog suggests or implies the cause of death was drugs, but nothing is confirmed so far as I can tell.

It's on AVN's site as well. Such a bummer. She was one of my favorites for awhile.
Well Done Kill Bill for starting a separate thread for tributes to Yurizan. R I P Yurizan Beltran The first scene i saw her in was Ruling With My Pussy for Brazzers with James Deen
These last few weeks have been horrible for deaths, but this one was the worst of all for me, because she was in the top 5 of one of my favorite Latina pornstars ever! Rest In Peace Yurizan Bultran
What ....one more beautiful performer passes away !!! this is so sad ....i loved all her scenes !! RIP Yurizan !!

Very beautiful indeed. I've been missing her lately. Her two scenes with Mike Adriano for EA were quite impressive, mainly the second when she got used to anal.
The Adult Entertainment Industry, now more than ever needs an organized program in place for performers. It's long overdue!! Somewhere performers can go for education, financial and health issue. Kind of how the NFL has a symposium and union for rookies and players entering the NFL. These performers need better representation and care!!! These beautiful performers could have all been saved. I hope the industry gets together and finally puts legitimate programs together for these performers. The time is NOW!!! RIP Yurizan Beltran
^ That would be great, but I don't see it happening. I don't think many producers really give a shit, and I don't see a lot of solidarity among the performers either. An indication for that lack of solidarity is the fact that even big stars don't refuse to work with a guy like James Deen.

^For the most part, it doesn't work for the NFL and it's certainly not going to work for the porn industry. Yeah there are exceptions, but in general it'd be falling on deaf ears.
My prayers are with her friends and family. It appears that depression is part of why she is dead. Is this year the worst one in history of the porn industry when it comes to performers passing away?

Her {Former?} website manager has a GoFundMe for burial expenses if you would be interested.

But the media keeps telling us that pornstars are super happy and more well adjusted than people in the general populace... I'm shocked!
Thank you for starting a separate thread, Kill Bill. I cannot believe I'm reading about another porn star death :( Very, very sad news. Such a beautiful, vibrant girl too. Another one that barely lived past her 30th birthday. IDK if she kept in touch with family ... but my heart goes out to them anyway. RIP, Yurizan...

Well there was some data to suggests this is actually the case. What we have seen from August and Yuri is a societal wide problem.
May she rest in peace. Condolences to those who were close to her. I think it's time for honest debate about the pros and cons of being involved in the porn business, after we seen at least three popular porn stars dying in a short time. Even Mike Quasar admitted that he feels that being a porn actress can take a toll on the soul (= mental health) of the ladies. Some of these ladies got into the porn business at a very young age and even though they might be legally adults, I think we can agree that most 18 or 21 year olds lack some experience and wisdom, that would allow them to make better decisions and judgements. [Tweet is no longer available] I think anyone who has seen the old and the more recent Louis Theroux documentaries that looked into the lives of porn stars in a very non-judgemental, non-bigot and empathetic way, will agree that in there is a big discrepancy between the image that is sold to the public (the viewers / consumers) and between what is really going on behind the scenes and in the private lives of the performers.
^ Man all of this is true for any show-business especially mainstream and they begin ofter at a very young age, kids in many cases, the actual difference from porn is that pornstars are often not allowed out by the stigma they get , "regular" "preoccupied" people don't allow them back to normal lives and even if they want to get out pornstars still have to make a living but if they can't get a regular job , or are pestered because of their past thay have no other choice but to continue
rip i remember when jessie rogers quit porn and went to feminist meetings and held speeches about abuse in the porn industry. maybe some of her words were true. i have no clue what is going on behind the scenes.
^It's a huge industry, different girls work with different companies, with differing directors and with different talent, so no two experiences are the same. Some may have worse experiences than others. While I can't speak to the totality of Yurizan's experience, her scene output was scanty and sporatic in recent years, and we should be careful about the degree to which we ascribe the industry(which is not a monolithic entity) to her recent or ongoing troubles. Above all else, it's a tragedy and may she RIP.

Don't know much about her work, but read about this and read her tweets. It's a shame that we lost so much talent rapid in rapid fire fashion. Hope this is addressed in industry forums like XBOZ and AVN. It appears that female talent hasn't been taken care of with August Ames taking her life not to far away from Yurizan Love.

Agreed, producers should give back, sooop many girls out there whose careers are over on a flash of light. A lot of people with a lot of issues who get into porn in economic or lofw desparation or with seriously high levels of naïveté about what I'll be sacrificed in them civilian world and physically spiritually. All these deaths ar very sad from a fan and human point of view. It seems like super social Darwinism....if a girl or guy even can't hack it their discarded like yesterday's newspaper. Drugs are not the only thing.....addiction isn't something that just starts magically. These, of course, are my opinions formed from having friends in other parts of the sex industry who have been tempted to get into porn but decided against it. Hope the folks with the big bucks do more to take car of these young people. The Kelly Shibari's, and Lisa Ann's and Sarah Jay's are adults who have perspectives and reasons for. Doing it...possibly because they just dig it.....it is the 20 year olds I feel bad about.

I found out about this on the back of August's death, incredibly sad. She was one of my favourite performers pre-boob job. Sounded like a lovely girl too. 31 is no age.

People also crush and smoke oxy too, so it could also have been overdose via abuse. It could also be overdose due to self medicating for some medical issue. Either way you can see that she was losing weight and looking unhealthy and had those vacant eyes of someone who isn't all there in her latest work toward the end. Pretty dark posts on Instagram towards the end as well. Too bad, what a beautiful woman who was by all accounts a down to earth girl. Sad.
