Amara Maple, 25, was born in Illinois, Central USA. At the age of 18, she joined the porn industry when she dreamed of becoming a hot Playboy bunny. She was given the stage name “Lana Rhodes” and worked in the field for only eight months. , She reveals that even though it’s been six years since, she’s still unable to recover from her past traumas.
“I’m not saying every scene was horrible, but there was a handful that was enough to do me harm,” Maple said. “There were three to five cases that were very traumatic for me, whether I was sent to a set with an overly old man or pressured to do things I was afraid to do because it was extreme for me,” the young woman revealed.
“I had friends who suffocated several times until they fainted during the filming. Crazy things happen there that hurt people’s bodies for the rest of their lives. I feel like a life sentence and I can not escape it,” the 25-year-old added. “Everywhere I go, I think about the fact that everyone saw me naked.” In another interview with Playboy, Maple revealed how she suffered from suicidal thoughts as a result of past experiences.
“You can go into the industry and decide for yourself what you are willing or unwilling to do. I said in advance that I would never participate in group sex or the like, but then the agents manage to convince me that ‘the best do it,’ and convince them to like me more. I started. “I feel like I’m disappointing my agent, so I just did everything I thought I would not do.”
Today Rhodes, by her stage name, is a white mother named Milo. She earns her living mostly on social media OnlyFans. She said that there she earns much more there than she was paid during her time in porn. “I post my experiences so that other women and young women understand that this industry is not glamorous at all. On the contrary – it scars the soul even though everything looks fun through the videos.”
