I only made a total $12k (N4.3m) in my career as a porn star - Mia Khalifa

Mia Khalifa, the Lebanese-American celebrity best known for being a pornographic actress from 2014 to 2015 has revealed that she only made a total $12k (N4.3m) throughout her adult movie career. 

The recently engaged Texas-based sports commentator addressed some of the common misconceptions about her time as an adult actress in a video she shared with her 17 million Instagram followers.

Mia Khalifa also revealed that it was nearly impossible to lead a normal life after she returned to a normal office job after her pornography career. 

She wrote: "Common misconception is that I’ve been making millions and millions from residuals for the work I did. Nothing could be further from the truth. In reality, I made around $12,000 in TOTAL my entire time in the industry. It was near impossible for me to lead a normal life with a normal office job after.

2 years into trying to force normalcy I decided to change my narrative and move to Austin to try and start over.  I was involved in porn so briefly, but my actions spread like wildfire, and I continue to be ranked (truly baffles me) 5 years after leaving the industry. This is why people think I still perform.
