The meltdown of Charlie Sheen is well documented, his Tiger Blood inspired rants now the stuff of legend.
You may also recognise the name Bree Olson, the former pornstar who lived and partied with Sheen back in the wild days of 2011. Now, after leaving the porn business, Bree has opened up about how hard her day to day life is now.
She posted a story on Daily Dot with some excerpts below:
I left a career where I made millions to try and gain respect. I pushed and struggled for years. People look at me as if I am the same as a sex offender. They look at me as though I am less than in every way, and they assume the absolute worst in every way. I had never realized how progressive my mind was and how scared people were of sexuality until this. I also realized I could never go back and be a nurse or a teacher, or work for any company really that can fire me under morality clauses for making customers feel “uncomfortable” because of who I am…
My biggest regret was leaving the industry. Leaving all of that money and trying to get the world to like me. They still don’t, and they never will. I should have just put in another five years at least so that in more my smart financial years as I was older, I could have saved enough to live comfortably for the rest of my life…
My message to young girls is to be careful. Things don’t just work themselves out when you get into the industry or leave it. You become a segregated part of society that has no civil rights group behind it. Life is already hard enough, don’t do this to yourself. The money isn’t worth the pain of what society will put you through forever.
Porn didn’t hurt me. The way society treats me for having done it does.
Hanging out with Charlie Sheen didn’t do your reputation much good but hey, I guess we were all young once.
