Most porn stars that eventually retire or leave porn usually go into modeling or acting in small parts in movies and TV. Capitalizing on the fame they derived from doing porn, these girls find it a logical next step to use their body and looks to build a career outside of the industry through that.
There are only a handful of stars that completely shun that and move on to more discreet roles in society.
In the early 2000s there was one asian porn actress that dominated the industry with her energetic performances and outrageous scenes she figured in. It also helped that she had a very memorable name.
Her name was Avena Lee.
At first glance, it’s easy to mistake her for a Latina. She has gloriously tan skin and glossy black hair down to her shoulders. She also looked taller than her actual height thanks to the 5 inch pumps she was known to wear. In reality she’s only 5’3” and weighs a little over a hundred pounds.
She was also gifted with 34Bs and a nice curvy ass that isn’t something you’d normally see on a typical Asian girl.
Yes, she had the looks fit for seducing men too. Beautiful almond shaped brown eyes and luscious lips were the order of the day. Her pencil thin eyebrows always seemed to be on a constant arch over those eyes completing the perfect resting bitch face.
She may have looked intimidating but Avena was known to be nice on and off cam. She was also very fun to talk to especially if the topic discussed was music, particularly hiphop. Unlike most people who only listen to mainstream artists, she was into the ones who were considered real artists of the genre. She loved that type of music so much that she ended up trying her hand at becoming a Disc Jockey.
Avena Lee invested her earnings on buying the best instruments to help her achieve her dreams. Now you’d think she only did this as a whim and had no musical bone in her body but Avena Lee was actually a gifted musician who played the clarinet during high school. She was also first chair so her skills when it comes to music are legit.
During her tenure in the porn industry, Avena produced a large body of work mostly for the Bang Bros crew. She was featured in masturbation scenes, girl girl scenes, threesomes and orgies. She was game for anything on cam. Most of her videos capitalized on her Asian origins and she really shone in them. She was also able to work with the hottest names in the porn industry cementing her position as one of the top porn actresses during her tenure.
Off cam she was busy perfecting her craft on the turn tables. She’d show up for amateur nights or take care of the music when she threw private parties at her home.
Operating the turn tables isn’t easy. I know, I’ve tried it and it can get confusing and there is a certain art to making all those cool sounds.
Avena Lee’s musical background helped a bit with her rhythm and song choices but she had to struggle with becoming a respected DJ for so many years.
It took her almost 5 years to muster the guts to finally move on from porn to concentrate on her music career.
And just like that, she dropped off the face of the earth and started gigging in clubs under different monickers for fear of being recognized and having people expect a lot from her since she was famous at one time. She would also perform with caps hung low or with a scarf covering most of her face. She wanted to be respected as a DJ and not because she was a former porn star who was famous all over the world.
Her career as a DJ took off slowly which is a good thing as the length of time it took her to reach the top strengthened her resolve to become really good at her chosen career.
Today she is regarded as one of the top female DJs in the world and gets to travel to perform at events. She is also making a lot of money from her musical career. People have also learned to accept that she is no longer a porn star and is now a legit musician who can make people move with her music.
She didn’t let go of her looks though. 3 years after her last video came out she is still looking hot as ever. Heck, she could go back anytime and she’d still kick ass on the porn set.
So far, she is the one who has managed to walk away from the industry and chosen a career that capitalizes on her other talents aside from her face and body. She is also a staunch advocate for women’s rights and has been known to give advice to empower young women to choose what they’re going to do with their lives. She has no regrets about being a part of the porn industry as it gave her the opportunity to pursue her other dreams and when the time was right, she eventually said goodbye to it.
I hope someday she comes back though (although she most likely won’t). I miss her face and energetic performances.
But tonight, I’m heading out for the club she’s playing at.
I wanna fuck her
