[edit] Do her parents really care about her?

Her parents are managing her career. Now if she was a singer or dancer that would be great. However, She a porn star. ABC did a report on this girl and she was all smiles. Yet, when it came to finding a special guy she seemed sad. Her parents were extremely happy with all of the money she's raking in. They seem to be more concern with that than their daughter's happiness. Plus the father seem to admire his daughter's body too much, to the point of creepy. She still lives with her parents and you have to wonder if its for her safety as they say or to keep her under their control. 66.215.88.227 00:54, 25 March 2007 (UTC) pixarian 03/24

It did seem like money had an effect on their happiness towards her success in that particular area and you're right, it would be much different if she was another type of entertainer. Despite the type of thing she's doing, she is a good business woman and does have all the right things to make it in this type of entertainment. Although, I don't care how many people you make happy, having your parents support this is too ironic and just plain weird! User:Cabrosa 4 April 2007

[edit] Questionable Things

She is a squirter, meaning she ejaculates when she orgasms. that's just bs... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.117.121.24 (talk) 00:42, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Real Name

I provided her real name [redacted] but someone removed saying IMDB was not a reliable source. I have provided another source. (now 2 sources total) 2 sources is more than enough I feel, but please do not remove again, but instead tag it for "more sources needed" if someone feels 2 isn't enough. (or, alternatively, provide links to something that says her real name is something else) (Cardsplayer4life 19:03, 9 September 2007 (UTC))

There are various reasons why IMDb itself isn't a reliable resource. It's really a secondary or tertiary resource, like Wikipedia -- and like Wikipedia, we should never ourselves be considered a primary reference or self-reference ourselves. As for the other link you've provided, it doesn't seem to load for me right at the moment... However, the source isn't as definitive as, say, AVN or even Luke Ford. -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. Think out loud 19:17, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
Ok, sounds good. There has to be a reference to her real name somewhere, though. Just about all the porn stars have references to their real name in their wikipedia entries. Oh, and the second link appears to not be functioning any more for some odd reason; Here is the link to the cache of it. (Cardsplayer4life 21:19, 9 September 2007 (UTC))
I've dealt with this before - I wouldn't go near publishing the real name unless it appears in multiple reliable sources (or at least one single ultra-reliable source, like the New York Times or something similar.) I sometimes get direct correspondence from these article subjects in my picture-obtaining work, and you wouldn't believe some of the stories they've told me about stalkers, etc. There are some scary people out there. By the way, IMDB specifically disclaims the accuracy of their bio data, I think I can find the link to the disclaimer if someone needs it. Videmus Omnia Talk 21:26, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
Oh ok, well I certainly do not want anyone to be stalked or otherwise in danger. I just thought it would add to the article; I apologize if I was too hasty in my assessment. (Cardsplayer4life 21:35, 9 September 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Birth Date

This explains why she does not make it available. For BLP, it's better to leave the omission than to be incorrect with a 'fact' tag. the_undertow talk 23:33, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Agreed, I'm content to leave it omitted for now, since it doesn't appear to come from a valid source outside of the IAFD and IMDB. -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. Think out loud 23:35, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
It's good to see administrators spending their free time to made sure biographies of up-and-coming porn stars are accurate and adhere to guidelines. :] the_undertow talk 23:41, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
