Ask any guy and they will tell you how great being a porn star would be sleeping with thousands of women, but John Holmes also did bisexual and gay porn, had a serious coke habit and ended up broke. Before Porn he was also a bisexual prostitute and during his relationship was a pimp forcing his girlfriend to sell herself.
On his death bed do you think he would of said it was worth it? lol
What you got to remember is the business was v very very different you to get a silent 8 millimeter film Loop that lasted about 6 minutes and we're hard to find and could cost 80 or $90 if you had a projector and then stills from those film loops were turned into a magazine called Swedish erotica and that was absolutely the hardestcore you could purchase and those magazines were $30 $40.. and he got famous !!!!not quite the widespread all media access they have today
shareOh and PS if that money doesn't seem like $90/film or $40/mag is not too expensive ,, a pretty good job paid $1.35 to $2 an hour '68-'74
