A woman left teaching behind to pursue a career in porn – and now her career is more secure than ever before.
Lexi Luna, from the US, has worked in the adult industry for more than six years, shooting with professional production companies as well as sharing her own content on OnlyFans.
The 33-year-old erotic performer made the transition because her teaching job didn't work out as she hoped.

Not only was she unable to save for a house as a teacher, she was also being judged by her student’s parents.
She exclusively told Daily Star: “I worked in lower-income districts where we had no resources and upper-income districts where parents had Facebook pages to criticise and micromanage us.
“Also, I didn’t get a raise in five years! I was never going to be able to save for retirement and have the life I wanted. Porn allows that.
“Growing up we’re all told to follow the rules and we’ll have a good life, but that’s not true. Most people follow the rules and end up scraping by.
“To get ahead, you have to be willing to break the rules.”
Lexi has made a name for herself filming content that is sensual and connected.
“I’m not the crazy girl who will do anything, and certainly not the type to be thrown around and used,” she said.
“My style is very intimate, and I like my scenes to reflect that.”
While some may be worried about former students finding her content, she isn’t concerned with that yet.
As Lexi only taught kindergarten to year four, she thinks she has a few years before she needs to worry.
She added: “People I went to school with have definitely found me though!”
While some people may think she’s left a great job behind for one with less stability, that couldn’t be further from the truth.
Now, Lexi has complete control of her career.
And despite what other people may think, she doesn’t feel like she’s being taken advantage of.
“Women are really in charge and I only do exactly the things I want to do. Also, I get to be creative when I shoot my own content, travel and take vacations whenever I want,” she said.
“The highs are the career control and income. Plus, I get to act out peoples’ fantasies for them. It’s so fun!
“The lows are definitely the haters trying to censor us and ban porn. Are there a few unscrupulous people in the business? Of course, like in every business, they tend to be one-person studios.
“The vast majority of adult entertainment is done ethically. Still, it’s easy for politicians and banks to villainise us, even as we know they consume our product.”
Lexi is tired of seeing her peers face discrimination from banks, social media and society just because of their chosen profession.
She also hates the act that the general population thinks they need to save sex workers or hide them away.
The brunette beauty also has an issue with politicians thinking that they are the problem plaguing society.
“People would be surprised to learn how big religious organisations pay ex-stars to trash the industry,” Lexi revealed.
“Lots of countries in Europe are trying to block access to certain sites or ban porn outright,” she shared.
“It used to be from a religious standpoint, but these groups have rebranded their efforts “to save the children”.
“So, if you believe in ethical porn and want to be able to view it, pay attention to politics and vote accordingly.”
