The Making of a Porn Star

Our good friends over at LIB have been discussing what is a porn STAR and the making of one.  Curiously enough I touched on this very subject last June with my porn star vs porn starlet post.  Anyway, the story over at LIB starts off by displaying a photo of the newest Vivid girl named Meggan Mallone with the headline listed below which sort of leads one to believe that the author of the post might not feel this new girl really all that hot.  This keep in mind however was one of the first ever “official” photos given out of the lovely new starlet.


THIS is Vivid’s new star Meggan Mallone?
or so says LIB


But quickly someone pointed out that not all girls were born stars, that some of them have to be made into something bigger than they are or may have been on their own. Case in point (or so the first case made in the LIB story) is Devon.  Devon first came onto the scene in 1998.  Since then she’s been under exclusive for Vivid, Digital Playground, Jill Kelly Productions and even Shane’s World.  Devon has probably held more contracts than any other starlet and every one seems to end badly.


Devon’s first movie was Country Comfort.  This was back when she was with Vivid.  She went on to star in major hits like Island Fever 2 with Tera Patrick and Stormy Daniels as well as Pirates with mega stars like Janine and Jesse Jane.  Long and short of it is, Devon became a porn star and 10 years later her name and face on a box cover still moves product.  That is after all what really defines a “star”, at least in this business.  But this spunky little blonde wasn’t always a star.  Before she was Devon the Porn Star she was a nobody from New Jersey.  Below is a picture of Devon I got from DearDevon.com, before she became a porn star.

Devon’s still cute, not so bad but a far cry from the mega STAR she would become.  The photo below is what Devon looked like after become a porn star.    You can see by the two images that become a STAR isn’t just about throwing some hot girl in a few movies but it’s about giving her a total and complete makeover and throwing a whole hell of a lot of press her way.

In the end the newest flock of Vivid girls, Meggan Mallone, Hanna Hilton and Nikki Jayne will be no different than Devon was 10 years prior.  They take a hot girl and make her a star. That’s their job and by the looks of the photos above, some companies do a pretty damn good job at it.


Devon is not the only example of this porn star makeover.  Jenna Jameson is arguably the world’s most famous porn star and well she too had her humble beginnings.  Years ago there was a young, aspiring starlet who wanted to make it big.  She couldn’t wait to be a star and that little blonde was none other than Jenna Jameson.  Sure we all know what she looks like now but how about 10 years ago?
