UPDATE: We’re celebrating our 15th Birthday here at Rabbit’s! And in loo of expecting presents, we’re actually looking to give away Free Memberships Worth Thousands Of Dollars and tokens to popular adult sites. And we’re doing so by holding a contest for you and our other loyal readers.
The term “Porn Star” came about in the early ‘70s and the first woman to become a household name was Linda Lovelace followed by Casey Donovan. During the golden age of porn (1970-1980), a porn star could only be enjoyed on-screen and if fans wanted to meet her they had to attend a private event. These days, adult paysites give people a platform to stay connected to their favorite stars and communication is now more accessible than ever.
Members can now directly email, text and even phone a porn star. There’s also the option of scheduling a Skype date or a private live cam show. Some sites include a “fuck a fan” option, where lucky members get to meet their ideal star and have sex with her on camera. Social media has also helped performers market themselves outside of the work they do on paysites. As a result, this has led to, what I like to call, new types of porn stars and I came up with my own fun categories to best describe them: The Active Model, The Instagram Sensation and The Snapchat Star.
The Active Model
This type of model can either be an established porn star with her own site who has an active social media following or a webcam model who performs on live cam sites, but stays active with her fans outside of her live shows.
Take a look at Jessica Jaymes! She has one of the top sites on the Web that includes a ton of features for members to get up close and personal. She has a blog, a large social media following (her Twitter account has 200k followers), a store where you can purchase her personal items, “fuck my fan” exclusives for members, and behind-the-scenes content where you can follow her on the set of a porn shoot. She also has a YouTube channel where she posts vlogs about her daily life as well as Q&A sessions.
Housewife Kelly is an amateur site that’s been online since 2006. Kelly and her husband started off doing live cam shows and posting videos online and in time they built their own site, which now has a large fan base. They don’t use fancy cameras or hire pornstars or well-known directors. Everything they film is homemade. So how did they get so big? By performing in 1-hour live interactive shows once a week. A membership to her site also includes access to a cam network where you can watch other models perform live for free. Her Twitter also has 99k followers!
The Instagram Sensation
Instagram models, or “Insta-hoes” as I like to call them, are girls who become famous through Instagram. We’ve seen babes become trending stars almost overnight. Check out The Hareald’s Monthly Girls blog for girls we’ve seen become “insta-sensations” through Instagram alone! This type of model is a fairly new development because a few years ago, IG had strict rules on the type of content you could post and many accounts were banned due to what was considered “explicit content.” Sometimes these babes don’t do anything sexual and are simply posing in bikinis, tight dresses, lingerie and gym clothes. The photos they post look stunning and they draw in thousands of views. Some girls land modelling contracts and go on to be supermodels for top brands like Gucci and Guess.
Other IG models do get a little sexual and you’ll often see them posting pictures of their boobs and ass. If you’re lucky (and IG doesn’t delete them) some share short masturbation videos or a quick striptease. Through Instagram, a lady doesn’t need an agent or to audition for a porn company. She has the liberty of building her own empire one post at a time.
The Snapchat Star
While SnapChat may appear trivial to some, it’s actually grown to be a huge platform for rising starlets. Like Instagram, it once had a strict policy against sexual content, but now users can subscribe to monthly memberships and watch a babe perform live XXX shows, see photos of their naughty bits and so much more! Viking Barbie is one such example. Subscribing to her page will give you access to full nudes and XXX shows. Harli Lotts is another popular babe whose Snapchat is busting up the internet. In some rare cases, fans are able to personally meet up with a star and their encounter is shared on her Snapchat account. Just like Instagram, some pornstars perform only on this social media platform and no other. This allows them to build a strong fanbase and make a decent salary.
The Evolution of the Porn Star
When you think about it, a porn star in the ‘80s was a fantasy that was kept within the confines of a VHS tape. Nobody thought about contacting a star or even dreamed about someday being able to meet her in person. In 2018, the porn star is not a fantasy anymore. Thanks to social media, email, Skype and smartphones, users can communicate with their favorite girls and make their dreams cum true! This also led to different “types” of stars and an opportunity for women to build a business outside of the adult industry. Who knows what else the future has in store for us? Technology is always changing. Maybe one day a porn star will be able to teleport to the privacy of your own home! For a price, of course. Only time will tell.
