To make it in Hollywood, sometimes you have to go through your fair share of odd jobs. For some celebrities, the definition of ‘odd’ meant stripping and standing in front of a camera.
While some A-listers knew what they were getting into, others were literally caught pants down when steamy videos of them leaked to the public.
Without further ado, here is a list of celebrities who did porn before they became a Hollywood sensation. Some will totally shock you!
Kim Kardashian
Kim always rode beside Paris Hilton before she decided it is time to break the internet. She starred in her own blue movie featuring her then ex-boyfriend, Ray J. According to Kim, the recording was meant to be private between her and her man but it ‘accidentally’ got leaked.
Kim even sued the people who tried to ‘defame her’ through the sex tape but later dropped the charges. Whether she consented or not, one thing we know for sure is that the tape was the reason she rose to fame. She is the wife of a famous rapper now, Kanye; so let bygones be bygones.
Jackie Chan
Shocking! Who would have thought the martial arts sensation who gave us the Rush Hour movies once had to play a dirty role? As history has it, Chan appeared in a Chinese blue movie in the 70s.
Lucky for him, he appeared as an extra in the adult movie ‘All in the Family’ in which he still maintains his comic self. To his defense, the movie was not pure porn but only had a steamy scene in which Jackie laid it bare.
Sylvester Stallone
Before he became Rocky, he had to be an Italian Stallion in a raunchy 1970 movie dubbed The Party at Kitty and Studs. Unlike Chan, who took a supporting role, Sylvester Stallone was the main act on this one.
If you ask Rocky, he is not really proud of it but it was a necessity during his years as a struggling artist. He was paid $200 for the role and went on to be hungry and homeless for a while before writing and directing his hit movie, Rocky.
Paris Hilton
Birds of a feather definitely flock together. Following the success of her friend and stylist Kim Kardashian’s sex tape in 2003, Paris Hilton went on to release her own raunchy flick the following year. The film, 1 Night in Paris, features Paris getting kinky with her then-boyfriend Rick Salomon.
Salomon is known to date A-list celebrities and even became Husband to Pamela Anderson, a former adult movie actress, who also did a sex tape with Tommy Lee—a whole new meaning to inner circle friendship.
Sibel Kekilli
We all remember the beautiful and covetable Shae from Game of Thrones whom Tyrion, the dwarf, was madly in love with. Well, it turns out that she picked a role that did not need much effort to audition for. Prior to Game of Thrones, Sibel had starred in various German-based blue movies and even won several accolades for her performance.
It is no wonder that she got Tyrion smitten by her seductive moves. However, just like her porn career, she did not last to see the next season of GOT.
Jaimee Foxworth
Remember the adorable and angelic Judy Winslow from the 1989 sitcom Family Matters starring Steve Urkel? Her fan base moved from adorable little girls like her to unkempt adults browsing the internet anonymously past bedtime. You guessed right, she is a blue movie actress fulltime.
There you have it, a list of famous celebrities who had to strip to make it in Hollywood. While some regret playing such roles, some still use the role to pay their bills. Nevertheless, we idolize them today; well, not all of them!
