How Much Do Porn Stars Make?

Have you ever wondered how much porn stars make? I use the term “star” loosely because you can just film yourself jerking it and load it online and consider yourself a member of the porn industry. Years ago I heard that male straight guys playing gay made the most and this made perfect sense to me. 

The numbers on this may be different now because the numbers range from 2012-2014. If a straight male porn star is slightly popular they can get between $200-600 and as little as $50-100. If you fuck on film and walk away with a check for $50 you really need to evaluate your life. I understand paying your dues but the ultimate due to me is fucking on film.

A female can get from $800-1,000 being with a guy or another girl. Her low end is more than the straight guy can get tops. If she decides that she needs to have another hole filled she'll get an cool extra $100. And the butt sex? $100-300 more per scene. I would love to hear the train of thought that goes into that process. “Hey, while you're here do you wanna make an extra hundred bucks? You do? Okay. Just take it in your ass. No, not $200. Just the one. Deal?”

High level female porn stars can get $800 for a girl on girl scene, $1,000 for a straight one, and even $5,000 if she ends up with a story she can never tell her family. This sounds like a lot but yo have to consider that each porn star, if they are honest and give a damn, have to pay $150 twice a month for STD testing every two weeks. Then there is the cut the agent gets.

5 foot 3, 100 pound, bisexual porn star Hillary Scott is considered one of the highest earning porn actresses and I have never heard of her or scene her. She earned over $700,000 a year and has been in about 607 movies. 

Most porn stars under a contract like she was make between $500 and $3,000. When you sign a contract with porn companies you can only work for that company which seems weird when you consider that porn stars shoot a lot of movies and you have to hope that yours needs you often.

The highest paid porn actor is Peter North with a net worth of $10 million. I think after Ron Jeremy he may have been the second porn star that I knew by name. Why? Let's just say that he is very productive. Now, I'm not talking about the fact that he has been in over 2,000 films and produced 20 himself. When he...finishes he makes sure that the heavens know. Its terrifying. If I ever did what he does on the regular I'd be worried. 

He started off doing gay porn as Matt Ramsey before making the switch. He is also known for having the sex with Traci Lord's when she was not of legal age and starring in porno flicks. Read about that if you wanna have your mind blown.

So when it comes down to it, if you wanna make money in porn you gotta do a lot of scenes or look so magical that people wanna pay a lot for you. That Scott chick confuses me because she looks like a lot of women you can see in the street. Maybe that's her appeal. The girl next door thing never went away.
