I agree. I'd say "good-looking and actually seems to have a brain" that makes me question the bold career choice. Personally it makes me think the girl(or guy since I'm a chick lol) could have had their pick of any career (specially if they acquired quality education) they must really love sex lol
Runway model? Ugh. [Creepy thin/dead fish syndrome imo] I usually jump to actress or fitness model. Even film making ect.
Unfortunately porn and acting often has painful results lol Fast-forward!

The assumption "too pretty for porn" is an insult.

Hmm, not really. It plays on a stereotype, and it doesn't have to be denigrating to performers. Of course there probably are girls that fit the stereotype (tons of makeup so you cant see whats underneath, anorectic body, huge fake boobs, ass implants, bad bleached hair, and looking drugged out etc etc), but I still don't see it is an insult as no one is being named.

The point of porn is for the ladies to be good looking.

^Actually, the point of porn is to simply provide a variety of arousing genre/theme-based scenarios. This could range from a supermodel-beautiful girl going "solo" with big toys or an average looking MILF going animal on 10 college guys.

I am not at all surprised that an attractive woman with minimal education and no marketable job skills would gravitate to the adult entertainment industry. That is one of the few options open to her if she wants to attain a middle class or upper middle class income and lifestyle.
In any medium to large metropolitan area, pretty women are a dime a dozen. If these women entering the adult film industry had other career options that paid as well or nearly as well, they would not be risking their health and well being in this line of work, especially now with all the brutal and extreme stuff that adult film actresses have to tolerate in order to get work.
Twenty years or more ago, it used to be that an exceptionally attractive woman in porn was rare and was treated like a goddess. She was assured fame, status and high pay, based only on her looks and her willingness to do a little fucking and sucking on film. She really didn't have to do anything sexually out of the ordinary to generate sales. Now, with the surge of truly attractive women entering the adult film industry every day, a new actress wanting to make a name for herself has to go to extreme measures just to distinguish herself from the pack.
Unfortunately, many of the "new breed of pretty porn actresses" find themselves in a catch 22 situation. The money is there if they are willing to do what it takes. On the other hand, the medical bill payments and cost for recreational drugs (so they can tolerate the extreme acts required of them) diminish their earnings. After a few years of their young tender bodies being ravaged by all the brutal anal, STD's and drug abuse, they are forced to leave the industry no better off financially than if they had been waiting tables all that time.
Twenty years or more ago, when well-paying manufacturing ("blue collar") jobs were plentiful, a recent high school graduate could get a good job making a decent middle class wage working at a factory or for one of the parts, service or materials suppliers for a factory. During those times, an attractive woman could achieve a middle class lifestyle by securing employment herself or by marrying a man with such employment. Now, most of those jobs are gone and have been replaced by lower paying menial and service type jobs.
The infusion of increasingly higher numbers of prettier women in porn directly correlates with the decreasing number of manufacturing jobs in our economy.
What's a girl to do?

Lots of names I agree with here.... especially SILVIA SAINT and DAISY MARIE. Daisy Marie really IS too beautiful for porn. She could do anything in life with those looks.

I think there is more to career success, and to general life success, than physical beauty.
If a woman is exceptionally beautiful, yet also has one or more of these issues:
1. Is dumb as rocks.
2. Has a serious drug problem.
3. Has a serious alcohol problem.
4. Has a horrible, combative personality.
5. Is functionally illiterate.
6. Can't be depended on to keep professional commitments (not showing up for work or showing up for work chemically impaired).
...then she might have some difficulty acquiring and maintaining regular, gainful employment.
In most lines of work, items 1-6 would be insurmountable obstacles to career success.
In the porn industry, items 1-5 are widely tolerated. Item 6 (not showing up to the set, i.e., "flaking") used to be grounds for getting "blacklisted", but with the variety and number of quality replacements available these days, flaking is not the economic disaster it once was. Although, if an actress gets a reputation for "frequent" flaking, she will find herself being less and less in demand...no matter how beautiful she is.
It is common practice to ascribe positive attributes to people we find very attractive, but the only positive attribute some attractive people have is their outer shell.
Anyway, for some, maybe a lot, of these women, their "exceptional beauty" is a product of makeup, lighting and flattering camera angles. Many of them are unrecognizable once the makeup is scraped off. There are a few threads on this and other forums showing the differences between pre and post makeup for some porn actresses. The differences are in some cases, amazing!

Rebecca Linares is pretty but a bit too skinny for me.
Stoya is positively ugly.
A girl needs to be pretty to do porn. I would not buy it if the girl was ugly, or plain.
Raquel Darrian is very pretty to me.

Good! Very well done thread! I've been always asking that question! The best exaple of it is STOYA. Just past here what I wrote in the thread "Stoya vs Tori". It seem you've read from my lips....
You can compare the gorgeous Stoya not only with any girl on the planet, but with any material thing in the whole universe. Stoya should always wins. She is sooo beautiful, so sexy, so attractive! So not only she's perfect like a girl, like a woman, but she's perfect, harmony in built, like a thing. IS PERFECT, FLAWLESS, IS ART... I mean like Partenon in Athens... understand? And it is really a sin she's in porn, because she could easily be a world star like a normal actress... her beauty is too much... no-one couldn't notice that. She could easily put in shadow Charlize Theron, or Nicole Kidman, or Elisha Cuthbert, or Jessica Biel. BECAUSE STOYA IS THE BRIGHTEST STAR OF THE UNIVERSE.
It's a real sin, it makes me a little sad thinking of it, about her. But I easily answer myself. Thay are in porn beacuse they like it, they enjoy it... being watched, being desired by some million guys all over the world... knowing that many guys masturbate watching at them (in action). I know Jana Jordan came from a rich family and she hasn' never needed money she earn from her job... but she likes it... she knows (and it is a bigf truth!) she's gorgeous and she loves to be watched, desired... by thousad guys at the same time in the world. More: even me, if I was a really beautiful girl (unfortunately I am man and rather bad), I would like to be admired, watched... I had wanted to pose nude and/or to be filmed nude and even more in sexy acts.... masturbating in front of a camera rolling (and knowing thousad the will watch...), being fucked for real by an attractive guy in front of the camerea rolling.....

??? I think she's pretty in a model kind of way (pale skin). Much like Faith Leon.
Racquel Darrian was really pretty too...thanks for reminding me :-)

without any doubt Bobbi Starr.
It´s so perfect and beautiful that it hurts.
But of course that´s only my opinion.

With those teeth of hers?
And I would say Gabriella Fox never really belonged in the industry. And as you would expect she left the industry and is modeling now.

That's sad to hear about Gabriella Fox leaving. She's amazingly hot.
I always thought Azlea Antistia was a total goddess. Heard she was a Guess Jeans model before getting into porn. Same with Amber Michaels. But both were total horndogs in a scene. I remember when Teri Weigel got out of her Playboy contract and did her first porn, that was a dream come true. In fact, I remember the first time she worked with Peter North. That was one of the most intense scenes I've ever seen.
The cool thing about adult films is that the more time passes, the girls coming in to the industry seem to get more and more beautiful. Most people dug Seka back in the 70's, then Ginger and Amber lynn show up. Then Jenna comes to town and it's like the floodgates opened. There's always gonna be babes in the industry that are so hot that it's surprising they are in the industry.

Why not? Who exactly does or does not "belong" in the industry?
As I said before, I don't get the whole "too pretty for porn" thing. It just doesn't make any sense. Girls in porn are supposed to be pretty. That's the whole point to get guys to watch it. Every girl in porn should look pretty. If porn is just an industry for ugly chicks, then who would watch it?

I definitely think the Eastern Europeans overall have more to offer in this category than many of the American candidates listed. Economic circumstances and lack of opportunity, especially right after the fall of the soviet union, brought a lot of model quality women into porn.
Anita Blonde from the 90s; Anetta Keys from this past decade are exceptionally beuatiful women who came into the industry that are runway quality looks
