It’s not common that porn stars are cast in a mainstream movie or TV roles but it does happen on occasion – rare occasion. Most porn stars are relegated to background roles as hookers or strippers. And almost never with full-blown speaking parts.
Sasha Grey played the role of herself, a porn star who was dating a cast member of the popular series Entourage for 6 episodes.
- Bree Olson starred in an episode of Keeping up with the Kardashians as the babysitter named “Bree”.
- Rachel Starr was in an episode of Netflix’s Tiger King.
- Stormy Daniels has a cameo in The 40 Year Old Virgin.
- Nina Hartley was in Boogie Nights.
- Katie Morgan was in Zack and Miri Make a Porno.
- Jesse Jane had a brief appearance in Baywatch: Hawaiian Wedding.
- Jesse Capelli was in Van Wilder.
The one thing almost all of those have in common is if you blink you’ll probably have missed. But that isn’t the case with Euphoria on HBO Max. It’s the new hit series that everyone is talking about. In part because it stars Zendaya, and also because it’s got such a controversial storyline.
Euphoria follows a group of high school students as they navigate love and friendships in a world of drugs, sex, trauma and social media.
One of those high school students is none other than porn star Chloe Cherry. She plays the role of Faye, who joined the cast in season 2.
Chloe Cherry began her career in porn in 2015 and to date has starred in more than 600 scenes. I’m not sure if she will continue her career in adult because she seems to be doing quite well in mainstream. Not only does she star in Euphoria but she even walked the runway in last weeks’ London Fashion Week.
