documentary for Current TV on sex and money

[jimslip]

Yes and there lies the problem, the people that have commissioned him, in no way would ask for a, "Sympathetic and accurate" appraisal of the topic...........unless they'd been on the 'ol skunk and been sectioned and locked up in an asylum!

There has NEVER in the history of UK television, been such a programme made about sex to my knowledge.

"I was stunned to find out that porn girls actually make more than page 3 girls!!!!!". I'm not surprised OEyedJ.

Page 3 is just tits, even clients of Sam Bond of London only pay around ?30/?40 for hour for topless, b/g porn girls can get ?100 per hour.

Page 3 girls are poorly paid to do page 3 itself,but can make major money from calendars and lads mags once they become established on page 3.....far more than the UK adult industry...

[Androm]

Cover of a lads mag is around 2 grand, however very few page 3 models go onto the covers of lads mags. They are more into celebrity stars getting their boobs out.

Agreed,Androm,
Celebs are pushing the models off the front pages..bad thing????
I've noticed that some girls who only a few years back would be firmly in the glamour market are now upping their levels....

We've gone a little of topic

or maybe thats something Aaron could use for his docu

I'm sure page 3 girls can supplement their income with...er kiss and tell stories and the occasional lads mag...if they are lucky enough to make a living by appearing on one after the other enough to do so.

I doubt any page 3 girl has become a millionaire doing it this way.

Lets be honest, there are only a handful of girls actually doing ok out of the topless market. Names that come to mind are: Lucy Pinder, Michelle Marsh and Keeley Hazell ( i dont many other names)..And where is Leilani these days (she was well cute)...Oh an dthat maxim girl with the nice boobs and pouty lips.

On the porn side I can think of a lot more names who are making money.

I'm just saying I was shocked at how much they actually get paid and Maxim and FHM exploiting these girls and virtually not paying them anything
(which brings this back on topic nicely with people not working for free)

Then again I do agree a girl does more when it comes to porn and deserves to get paid more for what she is doing.

[michaeldon1]

I agree one eyed jack..

The girls (and guys) in the industry should be thanked and rewarded for what they do....but doesn't everyone think that the line between glamour and porn has now become a little blurred????

Is the model you mean Sophie Howard...in the lads mags a lot???
