Meet Misti Dawn. She calls herself one of the nerdiest girls in porn. She loves sci-fi and comic books and she really wanted to be a part of the upcoming production of Star Wars, well the pornographic parody version, currently being produced by Vivid Entertainment.
There is a problem however. Misti Dawn isn’t exactly mainstream porn like. She isn’t exactly what you think of when you think of a girl that might appear in a Vivid movie. At first they tried to be nice and tell her she was to short but when she got verbally abusive with the production staff they decided to just lay it on the line for her and be blunt, telling her she had far to many tats.
Misti Dawn doesn’t just have a few tattoos either, she is practically covered in them from head to toe. She very much has that alt-girl kind of thing going on but I can understand why they wouldn’t consider her even for a second for a very expensive, big budget mainstream porn production.
Apparently someone forgot to explain basic economics to Misti Dawn who is calling for an all our protest of the movie, telling her fans not to buy the movie. She doesn’t seem to have the very basic understanding of how business works though. She doesn’t seem to understand that when they make a movie they do so for the sole purpose of trying to sell it to consumers. Consumers who typically buy a Vivid movie wouldn’t necessarily be interested in watching a girl like her in one of their movies.
But Misti Dawn apparently can’t be bothered with those little economic details. Instead she is on a mission to tweet non stop how much she hates Vivid and how everyone should boycott Vivid. Here is one of her tweets.
Does she really think she is accomplishing anything other than alienating other production companies from wanting to work with her in the future?
Does she really not understand that just as she has every right to cover her entire body in ink, others have every right not to hire her for doing so?
Does Misti Dawn really not get that she is an alt porn star and as such mainstream companies typically just aren’t going to work with her, no matter how much she bitches and whines about it? She chose to do that to her body and and although some people like that look, most mainstream type porno consumers do not. So she really needs to get the fuck over herself. She made the choice to do that to her body, so she has to live with the consequences.
Hey Misti Dawn —- the dark side doesn’t win dumb ass, reality does.
*UDPATE _ for those of you bitching saying we weren’t using a good photo of her, here is one we found on Tumblr. Happy now? Does a new image of her somehow make her massive amount of fucking tattoos somehow magically go away? Fuck I didn’t even know about the vagina tats until this new pic so that makes it even worse to me.

This is no way in hell I would hire this whatever you call it, can’t seriously be a girl looking like that for any more, let alone a big budget one. This bitch is going on twitter about all this power she has on twitter and how great she is and how they discriminated against her and how it’s an issue for all chicks with tats. NO BITCH IT IS JUST YOU. They hire girls with tats all the time, fuck they even had Janine under contract. Same with Monique Alexander. They just don’t want to work with YOUR GROSS ASS. It’s nothing more than the fact that you are not attractive so they don’t want to book you in one of their movies. YOU ARE NOT FUCKING ATTRACTIVE. GET OVER YOURSELF ALREADY.
Get over this poor pity me bullshit. They didn’t hire you, fucking deal with it and move on. Think they are going to hire you after your fucking mouth?
You are just not pretty. They hire a lot of girls with tats but not you. What does that tell you? TAKE THE FUCKING HINT. YOU ARE SICK LOOKING and what you did to your fucking body made you even more unattractive and your mouth, well that makes you even worse.
Get the fuck off of Vivid’s back and learn to live with rejection.
You guys keep on jerkin it to your plastic fantastics… you pick a picture of her that is not one of the best I have ever seen, and then expect your fucking vanilla fake flavoring lovers to like her? FUCK YOU. Way to cover both sides of it you fucking twatwaffles. Choke on a bag of cocks. Oh, well, it seems like you already have vivid’s cock rammed down your throat!
Basically I’m going to have to disagree completely with Clive and Ryan on this point. They are painting Misti as a whiner without knowing any of the back story. Also, Vivid has chose to say “No Comment”. We are talking about a Star Wars parody, so unless the galaxy is filled with Blonde, Large Breasted woman, I think there is room for a girl with tattoos. At least in the Cantina Scene.
As far as Clive’s comment about Misti not being attractive, Well beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I find Misti very attractive, tattoos included. If your type is the vanilla paradigm of Blonde, Large Breasted women, that is fine with me. The last Vivid feature I watched, I couldn’t tell the actress apart after a while. Variety is the spice of life.
Coming on a site and blasting a performer is just bad form in my eyes. Especially the way you did it. Misti has a following and the people who like her come from all wakes of life. I can tell you are not a fan and that is fine. There are plenty of people that are.
As far as the Star Wars parody itself, I will not buy it but not because Misti isn’t in it. Because the Parody is played out. Time to create some original ideas down there in the valley. I’ve also read that Darth Vader will be having sex with Princess Lea. Last time I checked, that’s incest my friend.
In closing, Please get all the facts before posting a slanderous post such as this. There is so much behind the scenes business, and Misti is just tired of playing Mainstreams game.
Ah clive – “YOU ARE NOT FUCKING ATTRACTIVE” — everyone is entitled to their own opinions – me personally think Misti Dawn is very attractive. As i also think that tats are awesome. And to the author of this post — so she has a lot of tats, is it any worse than a girl that is 80% silicon or plastic, or has had so much cosmetic surgery that barbie looks more real?
Cyke — what you or I think is really irrelevant. It all comes down to simple economics. You may like girls with tats, hell I may like girls with tats but in the end the only thing that really matters is what do the customers who buy Vivid movies like?
Shep — Misti may be “tired of playing the Mainstreams game” but it doesn’t change the facts in this case. Vivid hires certain types of girls for their movies because their customers like those kind of girls. Misti clearly isn’t within that criteria and her bad mouthing and slandering the studio isn’t going to change that. The only thing it will accomplish is ensuring she won’t get work with them in the future or with other studios who now may be weary of hiring someone labeled as a trouble maker. There are 1000s of porn chicks out there. They will just hire the next one. Despite what she seems to think, a company isn’t going to just hire someone because we tell them to. A company is going to hire a girl that they like to work with and that their customers like to watch having sex. She isn’t their kind of girl. Why the fuck is this a confusing issue for people?
Ya man i get what u are saying she has a lot of tats but damn why she have 2 freak out on twitter like that? it makes hur just look stupid so like even if she had a point nobody listens bcause what she did
Misti tweeted “Good journalism guys. Want to ask both parties” WTF is she talking about? The story was taken from HER tweets.
I wonder now if she is just on crack or something.
How the fuck is there a side to the story? You said what you had to say, we posted about it. That is YOUR side. Damn woman, I think maybe we need to send you some fucking Prozac or something.
First off Ryan, she tweeted Good journalism because your story is so biased it could have been shown on fox news.
Second, It wasn’t Vivid who didn’t want to hire Misti, it was the director Axel Braun. Misti talked to the CEO of Vivid today and that they would very much like to work with her.
Third, I believe me being a CUSTOMER gives me the right to tell the companies what I think of their products and who I would like to see in them. Sticking to the “Barbie” styles are antiquated at best and if they are prepared to change that than let them die out like the dinosaur that they are.
And, if you would care to read other blogs and do a little research you could have found all this information too before putting your post up. Just because Misti was the only one brave enough to call someone out on his shit, Axel Braun, doesn’t make her a troublemaker. Also, she has publicly apologized to Vivid and explained she was given false information from once again, Axel Braun.
Ok Ryan. We get it. You dont like her. I think enough bashing ok. And you are correct, People have just as much right to not hire as she has to have her tattoos.
Plain and simple though if you’re going to report on things how about reporting from a NON-biased stance. Do you work for Axel Braun? By doing what you are doing, you are no better than those morons on the radio and tv that sit there and bitch about their opinions. You have to listen to me but I dont have to listen to you.
I believe Misti is a very beautiful woman tattoos and all. And I think you owe her an apology. You bash her, you have the wrong information…what else? I do understand that being online makes you tough, but damn dude.
A real man would apologize, are you a man or a punk?
I don’t really give two shits if you think I’m a punk or a pussy. She is the one who tweeted her biased opinions against a studio and their director. She tweeted the insults.
So she is allowed to insult others, yet others can’t insult her? She considers what she has done as just stating the facts and you know what? I fucking do too. I think it is a fact that she chose to get those tats so now a lot of people don’t want to work with her. That’s apparently not just my opinion but a fact since obviously by her tweets she lost a job over her looks.
So again, don’t you just love when people can dish it but can’t take it?
“You have to listen to me but I don’t have to listen to you”
You couldn’t have said it better Khronos.
Call me a bitch ass punk all you want Khronos, won’t change the facts. She tweeted the insults, I just reported on them.
I don’t care if she is your favorite porn star or if you like girls with tats. That’s not even a relevant subject. Perhaps you should re-read what I said because clearly you aren’t getting the fucking point.
IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT WE THINK. WHAT MATTERS IS THAT PEOPLE WHO BUY VIVID VIDEOS DON’T LIKE TO LOOK AT GIRLS LIKE HER, PERIOD.
Shep if you believe a single word that Steve Hirsch ever says then you are a dumb ass.
As far the real story goes, I have the real story. The real, real unpublished story.
I happen to get my hands on the real reason why they didn’t want to work with her, even to dress her up like an alien, which as she herself pointed out in one of her own blog posts, would have worked with her tatt’d look.
I however am being told that I have to be nice and can’t call her out for the real story and the real reason why Axel and many others don’t want to work with her.
So before you go jumping down my ass, just be fucking grateful I’m not posting my own personal opinions on the chick.
So you like this girl, whatever. Who fucking cares. I am pretty confident that you aren’t the target market for a Vivid feature film.
So I don’t think they really give two shits who you are and what you think.
Reading these responses I can’t help but think about that song ………………. we didn’t start the fire …………….
Good shit man.
You know what is even better? Who wants to bet that more than a few of these guys defending this chick are the same person.
Now tell us the truth man. Why didn’t they want to work with her? Stinky box? Diva on set? On someone’s no list?
What the fuck is stinky box?
It’s fucking great how many people bitch at Ryan when he didn’t even call her names, that was me you dumb pieces of shit.
What did he do that was really so bad? I think the worst thing he called her was an alt porn star.
Now me, I have more balls. I don’t mind stating the truth. This girl needs to get over herself already. She didn’t start any sort of revolution. She has no power. She’s an unheard of nobody porn starlets with a few vocal fans. Big fuckin whoopy to do.
The power of social media didn’t do shit for you except get sites like this to pick up on your story and spread the word to others as to why not to hire you.
Now the news breaks that there is another so called real reason they didn’t hire you. I wished Ryan would tell us what that real reason is.
Either way at least THE POWER OF SOCIAL MEDIA helped to get this story out there to others so they don’t make the mistake of hiring you for their movies.
Ryan, I won’t resort to name calling because I think that is just low class. If you have the real story than publish it, stop beating around the bush. Obviously people stopped being nice a long time ago. As far a “jumping down your ass” You should expect you are going to get criticism when you write such a biased story, you my friend are not above criticism. There has been a line drawn in the sand and we happen to be on opposite sides. I am grateful you aren’t posting your opinions because they probably would be done in a very crass and immature manner.
As far as myself not being in Vivid’s demographic, creating a parody of a well loved Sci-Fi movie, I am exactly the demographic they are trying to reach out too. And to say they don’t care what the consumer wants to see would be ridiculous. In an industry who is slowing dying to tube sites and piracy, anyone willing to purchase their movies should be their demographic.
Clive, I not only left moments about Ryan’s story but also on your post. We disagree on what we like to see in a feature. I’m fine with that, what I wasn’t alright with was the way you bashed a performer. I point was made and than unnecessarily driven through.
Ryan “So before you go jumping down my ass” – so exactly which way are you pointing you ass
and i love the whole “most porn customers don’t like tats” thing – i thought most porno customers wanted tits, ass, pussy, and things (toys, cock, fingers) getting stuck in said ass and pussy.
Porn Legend Kylie Ireland has quite a bit to say about this story and she was there.
Just learned @itsmichaelvegas GAVE UP the LEAD in #StarWarsXXX cuz his GIRLFRIEND @meowmistidawn made him. #whatwereyouthinking #growapair
For the record; @meowmistidawn was never promised ANYTHING. 2 sides to every story & I am working on the movie. Saw the whole thing unfold.
Her reason was cuz she didn’t get cast in the movie. She bashed everyone on the movie & Vivid publicly. @Arevalo247 He threw it away.
I’ve no issue w u @meowmistidawn except that u are bashin a project that alot of people outside ur situation are workin their asses off on.
People workin on this movie dont deserve the shit u are sayin. Pls direct ur anger 2proper PERSON. Not the project as a whole @meowmistidawn
u know this is all about u @meowmistidawn u made @itsmichaelvages throw away a massive role-U changed plans BEFORE u discovered u werent in
Hun @meowmistidawn starting #starwarspornfail is not “directing it at a person”
The shame of it is that out of all the BS #starwarsxxx has lost an awesome Luke Skywalker in @itsmichaelvegas

And what ARE my priorities? RT @ItsMichaelVegas @kylieireland so before u tell me to grow a pair, I tell you to get your priorities in line.
@ItsMichaelVegas fwiw, anything @meowmistidawn says about the movie IS a reflection of u. She has been FAR from professional.
@meowmistidawn no I dont think he would let me know. Nor would he stand up to u.
Truth or no, you bashing the movie publicly is unnecessary. I take offense to that. @meowmistidawn
How HE wants to be treated? This is all about YOU hun. YOU started it. YOU misunderstood & YOU went mental. @meowmistidawn Was all fine b4.
And damage both your careers. RT @meowmistidawn: @kylieireland sorry but I will continue to voice my opinion.
All I ask is voice your damn opinion PROPERLY and NOT bash the movie and the hardworking people other than the 1 u dislike. @meowmistidawn
I am now DONE with this argument. I dont care what the deal is. We are doing amazing design & thats all that matters. #starwarsxx will rock.
If anyone has doubts about the dedication & hard work going into #starwarsxxx please see my blog: http://www.kylieirelandblog.com
