Pornstar ranked in the top 1000 reveals the 'insane' amount she earns per year

An adult model has spilled all about what it's like working in the industry, including the shocking amount she earns every year.

It's one of the many things that people wonder about the adult entertainment industry - just how much does the talent get paid?

In recent months the internet has been awash with reports about the staggering amounts of money that models can earn from posting on OnlyFans.

Big names - which are usually people who already have a public profile - can rake in tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars a month from the platform.

Then you have big names in the largest adult studios such as Riley Reid, who claimed that for some kinds of scene she can command fees of tens of thousands of dollars.

But now another performer has revealed the 'insane' amount of money that she earns from her job.

So who is she, and what is the money that she makes?

A post on a Reddit account attributed to Gigi Dior read: "The first year I did porn full time, I actually LOST money. But it’s a business and I am investing in it and me. This year I should turn a slight profit, but not much, less than $20,000."

The post continued: "But I’ve seen what others have and do make and it can be extremely lucrative. I’m just not there yet.

"As far as lesser known, well I consider myself lesser known. It’s a constant grind and a struggle. You have to work hard and not give up. You have to plan and budget. There’s a reason you see so many girls come and go.

"Some make a ton of money or meet an individual and get married or move on, but a lot don’t treat it like a business.

"They think, oh, I will just come in and make a ton of money and leave. Those are the top 0.1%. For those that do, kuddos to them. I am not one, but I will get there."

Another post on the same social media page responds to a question about whether the star has any regrets about getting into the adult entertainment industry.

It reads: "It depends on the day! Some days are great and things seem to all fall into place. Those are the good days.

"Other days are disappointing and I question my decisions. In that regard, it’s like every other job I’ve had."
