Former porn star turned mainstream Hollywood darling is back in the news, and this time she's talking about her time in the industry. Chloe Cherry debuted on Euphoria in Season 2, and her star has since exploded in the mainstream. Recently she opened up about sexual harassment and the starkly different experiences she witnessed while working in the restaurant and porn in her recent appearance on the Emily Ratajkowski podcast "High Low." This, of course, blew up the comments with women coming out of the woodwork claiming how women are raped on camera. Although a few waitresses spoke up, agreeing that Chloe Cherry was right. Like this comment from Tangerine_17_.

Currently still working in the service industry and all I can say is this is all true. Always receiving unwanted comments or advances by both customers, bosses and coworkers.

Or from Sarasensintaffar, who says, "The stories I have from when I was waiting tables in my teens and early 20s ... the service industry are the most violated group of people." Meganbehnke adds, "Yes. She speaks a lot of truth. The way women are treated in the service industry is I'm forever traumatized."

Chloe Cherry goes on to say that, “Porn is an art form in this world that people should respect,” she told the Daily Beast in 2022. “I was always comfortable in my sexuality, loved feeling my sexual power, and loved turning people on.” Cherry, who is now 25, first moved to Miami at 18 years old to pursue porn full-time. She had dreamed of being a showgirl throughout her childhood. Cherry said she had an overwhelmingly positive experience while working in porn. “It’s a great place, and if you are tested, of age, and you’ve seen porn before, I think it’s a cool, fun job to do,” she told Ratajkowski. “I really, really, really don’t understand what is wrong with sex work. To me, it seems like people hate women.” There were also industry differences that Cherry pointed out. The Euphoria star revealed that what she earned in a year doing adult films, she made in a day in Hollywood. “This year has blown my brain off — the amount that things pay,” she said. “Because there’s not as much money in porn?” Ratajkowski asked. “Yeah, you’re telling me,” Cherry replied. “Holy shit.”

This is a very similar sentiment to what Lana Rhoades has said. She would make $1,000 to be on set all day long, but now as a mainstream influencer, she'll get $30,000 for 5 minutes of work. It's like night and day. They pay girls so much more money in mainstream.

But Cherry said she felt her time in porn was far better than in other industries — namely, her experience as a cocktail server. “Your whole goal in [porn] is just making someone cum,” she explained. “It’s not like my whole goal is to serve 500 people in one night.” Cherry recalled the experience of being a server as “so fucking traumatizing,” pointing out that she often felt unsafe in the restaurant industry. “My boss was so fucking creepy,” she said. “He was like an actual sexual predator. Like, nobody in porn is a registered sex offender.” “In porn, it was like, this is what we’re going to do today,” she continued. “There wasn’t like, then this random guy comes up to you and tries to touch you. … I felt so much more respected in porn than in a restaurant.”
