I’m not sure if this post was meant to slam talent or to promote them via a pay site. This morning, a reader sent me a link to a site called Badoink, on which they ran a story titled, What Porn Stars Really Look Like. The post is a side by side pictorial containing what appears to be Driver License or other government ID photos.
I’m not sure if these pics came from 2257 info but I’m reasonably sure they did. While I’m not up to date on the latest 2257 laws, I would think ID photo copies would be considered private information. Clearly there is an issue here and TRPWL has reached out to Badoink as well as some of the girls whose IDs were used for comment. We will update this story as info comes in.
Mia Malkova says they did not have her permission.
These are just a few screen caps from the story. Maybe this is legit, maybe not…
UPDATE: At some point after this post, Badoink killed the link:
UPDATE 2: Performers and industry professionals have begun discussing the issue.
