How much money can I make in porn?

In the adult industry, not the males, but the females make most of the money. Although it’s true that everyone is judged based on their looks, being able to do “special things” can get you a long way.

Making money in porn 

Every person who wants to become a porn star will ask the question how much money he/ she can earn as a model in a porn movie. In this part of the article you will read all about it.

If you look good, people will want to see you naked. It might not be the nicest thing to say, but it is the truth. However, you don’t need to be a supermodel. There are a lot of porn talents that don’t look like Victoria’s Secret Angels, but make a shit ton of money.

Looks aren’t everything, it also depends on what you are willing to do. Some people make more money than others because they cater to a specific kind of niche. Don’t do anything for free, but some gigs will pay more than other gigs. A girl/girl scene for example generally pays less than a boy/girl scene.

This is a basic guideline for how much each scene pays out. It should also be noted that these are LA rates and vary depending on where you shoot. Men are not gonna make that kind of money in porn. In general they will make between $350 and $500.

For women in the LA area these are the general rates:

• $250 Solo or  photo shoot
• $800 for a girl-girl scene
• $1,000 for a guy-girl scene
• $1,200 or more for anal sex

Other things like double penetration or group sex can earn you even more. Typically $2000 or more per scene.

These rates do not reflect first time bonuses. Companies would typically give girls bonuses for their first new thing. For example their first anal scene. These bonuses used to be very high (up to 25k) and although they still exist, they are currently a lot lower.

Are you very pretty? Then you could be considered higher-end. Higher-end girls usually make a bit more (about 20 percent).

What are the rules for porn stars? 

This part of the article will give you everything you need to know about becoming a porn star, including the rules and guidelines. There are also some rules that are very strict, but mostly involve the law.

You must be over 18

First of all you need to be 18 years or older to become a porn star. There is no exception to this rule. The law is very clear on this matter. You must be over 18 years of age to do porn. 

You must have a valid ID 

To work in porn, you must have at least two forms of government issued ID. These can be a driver’s license, a passport, or a state issued ID card. If you lost your ID, or if it was stolen, you need to get a new one. The easiest way to do this is by going to Google how to get a new ID. Remember, working in porn requires two forms of ID. 

What doesn’t count as valid forms of ID for the purposes of performing in porn are …

• Credit cards and/or debit cards
• Utility bills
• Internal identification card issued by one’s employer, university or school
• Proof of automobile insurance card
• Health insurance card issued
• Library cards
• Membership cards issued by private clubs

Although these types of documents are acceptable for some people, they are not ideal for porn. In order to get approved for porn, you need to show up with something that’s not your library card. 

You must be willing to travel

You have to be willing to travel to certain locations to shoot porn. Usually, your agents will pay for your travel expenses and the cost of staying in LA.

There are other places you can work but Los Angeles is where all the big bucks are made.

There are a few studios in Florida (Miami), Virginia, New York, and Las Vegas that are also worth mentioning. Canada and Puerto Rico are also spots where movies are shot, but LA and Las Vegas still have the highest rates in the industry.
