I WANT TO BE A MALE PORN STAR
In 2012, I wrote a post on my Forbes blog that remains that blog's most popular post. The title: "The Hardest Thing About Being a Male Porn Star." Since it was published, the post has generated nearly two million views. And because of it, I regularly get emails from men around the world who want to be porn stars. To date, I've heard from nearly seven hundred men. These are their emails. (This blog is updated as I receive them.)
"On April 23, 2012, I published a post on my Forbes blog: 'The Hardest Thing About Being a Male Porn Star.' I don’t remember what prompted the idea for the post, other than the fact that I have been covering the adult movie industry for more than a decade and have long been interested in how its male performers navigate a business in which they play second fiddle to its real stars: women."
