whichever (lady) performer is replacing me tomorrow for @EroticaXNews , you’re shooting with a guy who has shot gay porn, just to let cha know. BS is all I can say🤷🏽♀️ Do agents really not care about who they’re representing? #ladirect I do my homework for my body🤓✏️🔍

Ames posted a comment about not working with male actors who perform in gay scenes and the Twitter mob acted with predictable indignation. She spent three days on the site arguing against the entire internet. On top of this, she also caught a lot of flak from her fellow performers. Her death has rocked the adult film industry and many of her friends are calling out Twitter trolls for pushing her over the edge. Whether or not the latter part of this story is true will only be confirmed as more news is released. It’s a sad day in the world of adult entertainment.
