Mia Khalifa was 16 when a man about 10 years older started dating her. Four days after her 18th birthday he talked her into eloping to Las Vegas. At 20 a stranger handed her a p*rn studio's business card. She laughed it off. At home her husband told her "you should do it, I think it would be great." She signed a contract with two words in it: "in perpetuity." She calls that marriage grooming now. She grew up in Beirut, the darkest girl in her family, in a country where the beauty standard is light skin and green eyes. Then her family moved to the Washington area. She was 8 or 9. Then 9/11 happened. The Pentagon was hit. Half her classmates had parents who worked there. The new Middle Eastern girl got bullied for it. All she wanted was to fit in. She didn't like the girl in the mirror. So she attached herself to the first person who seemed to want her. He was in the Army. She says he saw "a toy to play with." She quit after a few months. She left him too. She moved into a room in Miami where the bathroom sink was also the kitchen sink. No stove. One window, broken, covered with tape. She got a job as a paralegal. Everyone in the office recognized her. Then a construction company. The owner wouldn't let her on job sites. Last time I showed you how she got three months, $12,000 and a death threat. This is the part that came before the car. In the video below she tells who really put that card in her hand. Did her husband try to stop her? No. "You should do it." What did he get out of it? "Fetishization." Does she forgive him? "No. I forgive myself." Who owns the website with her name? The studio. Still. What happened when she named the men behind it? She says they dug up corrupted footage from 10 years ago and released it like it was new. And her name? "Mia" was her dog's name. The studio told her not to use "Khalifa" because nobody would know how to spell it. Some people will say she was a grown married woman who made her own choice at 20. Others will say a girl who was 16 when he found her never really had one. The girl who got bullied for 9/11 is now one of the most searched names on the internet, and she still doesn't own it. Was it her choice, or was it his?

Porn star Adriana Chechik jumped into a foam pit at TwitchCon and broke her back in two places. While she lay in the pit unable to get out, you can hear someone on the mic say "No, no, she's fine." She needed five and a half hours of surgery, two 10-inch steel rods and eight screws. She says the injury damaged the nerves to her bladder. In the hospital she found out she was pregnant. Because of the surgery, she says, she couldn't keep it. The pit was part of a Lenovo booth at an Amazon-owned convention. Twitch declined to comment. In the video below you see it happen, then she tells the rest herself. October 2022. San Diego. A Lenovo Legion booth on the TwitchCon floor. The idea was simple. Climb a platform, jump into a pit of foam cubes. Attendees said afterwards the pit was too shallow. She jumps. She lands. She doesn't get up. "I can't get out!" Someone on the mic: "No, no, she's fine." She wasn't. Her back was broken in two places. Bone fusion surgery. Five and a half hours. Two 10-inch rods of surgical steel. Eight screws. She says she also has nerve damage to her bladder. She wasn't the only one. Another streamer dislocated her knee in the same pit. Three weeks later she went live for the first time. "I'm out of breath. I get out of breath holding my phone." She turns around and shows chat the scar running down her spine. Then she says the part nobody expected. "I don't care, everyone's gonna know. But I was pregnant." "And I didn't find out until I was in the hospital." "I'm not pregnant anymore. Because of the surgery, I couldn't keep it." Lenovo said it was aware that visitors were injured at its booth. Twitch declined to comment and pointed reporters to Lenovo. The pit was shut down after the videos went viral. One jump at a sponsored booth. Two steel rods in her spine. A pregnancy she found out about and lost in the same hospital stay. A multi-billion dollar company built the pit. Who should have paid for that jump?

Adult star Sky Bri was booked for her first rap music video, with Shy Glizzy. She says after dark he and his crew cornered her in the kitchen and pushed a pill on her until she gave in. She says after 12 hours of shooting he walked into her room, pulled her onto the bed with his pants down and told her to suck it. She said no. He told her to lick it. She said no. Then, she says, he asked if she was fine with not getting paid for the whole day. She said yes and walked out. She never got the money. When she joked about it on TikTok, he sent her a screenshot asking "what is this about?" In the video below she tells it herself, starting with the pill. It was 2020. Her first music video. 12 hours on set with the director and crew. She says his energy that day was "sketchy." When it got dark, he cornered her in the kitchen with his "little posse." A pill. She didn't know what it was. "I said no a million times." Eventually she took "the littlest tiny bit." She says it was Molly or ecstasy. She still finished the shoot. Then she went to her room to pack. "He comes in and he pulls me on the bed and I look down and his d*ck is out." "Suck it." No. "Lick it." No. "Then you're fine with not getting paid?" "Yeah." She got up, walked downstairs and told the director. The crew agreed it wasn't okay. They put her in a car and drove her home. She had never told this story before. Months later she posted a joke on TikTok. "Starring in my first music video. Didn't get paid." And in brackets: "My lawyers will be in contact." He sent her a screenshot of it. "What is this about?" She didn't answer. "He could probably figure it out, right?" She says the fee was 3 to 5 thousand dollars. She could afford to lose it. Then she thinks about the girls who can't. "If you don't do this, you're not getting paid. And they need that money. So they're gonna do it." These are her claims. We could not find a public response from Shy Glizzy. 12 hours of work. A pill she said no to a million times. And a paycheck that depended on one more thing. She could afford to walk out. How many girls on sets like that couldn't?

Porn star Christy Mack was 23 when her ex, a former UFC fighter who had legally changed his name to War Machine, broke into her Las Vegas home at 3am. She says he beat her for hours while she lay naked on the floor, trying to give him reasons not to kill her. 18 broken bones in her face, teeth knocked out, a ruptured liver. She says she called 911 and nobody came. When she escaped and ran bleeding down the street, three neighbors came to their doors and not one let her in. Then from jail he wrote that the whole thing had "turned into a gold mine for her." In the video below she tells it herself, starting with the one thing she's sure of: what happens if he gets out. August 8, 2014. A friend was staying over to help her set up a casino signing the next day. War Machine let himself in and went for the friend first. She called the police. Then deleted the call from her phone. "Because I knew he was coming for me next." The friend got away. He didn't call anyone. He just went home. "Torturing me and beating me for hours." She has to stop. She apologizes for crying. "I remember laying on the floor. Trying to give him reasons not to kill me." Then he took her phone and walked down to the kitchen. She could hear him going through the drawers. He was looking for a knife. She got up and ran. Naked. Blood everywhere. 3am. Three people came to their doors. Nobody opened them. She passed out behind a bush in someone's front yard and woke up in the hospital. Later it was confirmed. Every knife she owned was laid out on her kitchen counter. Then came the letters from jail. He called it "a money making publicity stunt." He wrote that over $100,000 was raised for her bills, and that she "needs no surgery." He says he was railroaded. She says a huge part of that money went to charity. "I make an easy villain. I'm a fighter, I'm a felon, I have tattoos and my nickname is War Machine." Her answer: "I have tattoos and I was a porn star. What makes him more of a villain than me? He broke the law." His lawyer asked for 2 to 5 years. "There's no way I would feel comfortable with him getting out in five years and not killing me." In 2017 a jury convicted him on 29 counts. He got life. He can ask for parole after 36 years. A naked girl on the floor bargaining for her life. A row of knives on the counter. And a man who called it her payday. He wrote that no one in this story is innocent. Does anything she did for a living change what he did that night?

Adult star Lily Phillips was 23 when she slept with 101 men in 14 hours straight in a London Airbnb. The men had been promised 5 minutes each and got 2 or 3, and some complained to her face. By the end she says she could remember maybe 10 of them. "If I didn't have the videos, I wouldn't have known." Right after, a documentary camera caught her on the bed in tears. Her parents offered to sell their house if she would quit. She said no. Now she says her next goal is 10,000 men in 24 hours. In the video below she tells it herself, starting minutes after it ended. She is still sitting on the bed, wiping her eyes. She says somewhere along the way she went robotic. Same routine, over and over. "It's not like normal." She tries to count the faces she remembers. Five. Six. Ten. "And that's it." The part that got to her was not the pain. It was the men saying they only got two minutes. Josh asks if she has even processed it. "Not yet." Months later the BBC sits her down and plays her the clip of herself crying. Millions of views. Her first word: "Great." She's just an "ugly crier," she says. "Of course that part goes viral." Then the real answer. 14 hours straight. Exhausted. "I really underprepared." And the line that stops the interviewer cold. A month earlier she had done 37 men. "That was just bliss." The interviewer asks her to put her hand on her heart and look her in the eye. Was that day genuinely empowering? Her parents already gave their answer. They offered her their home. She kept going. 101 men. 14 hours. A memory of 10 faces. And a plan for 10,000. She called it empowering. Watching her on that bed, do you believe her?
