Child Stars Turned Porn Stars
Remember Judy Winslow from Family Matters? She was Laura and Eddie's younger sister. She was only on the show for the first 4 seasons. With no explanation, or acknowledgement that it would be her last, one episode in 1993 she walked upstairs never to be seen or mentioned again. Apparently everyone was consumed with focusing on Steve Urkel, that they couldn't see her character grow. So, they gave her the boot. When she was 20, a judge awarded the money she made from the show, which was in a trust fund, to her family to keep them from becoming bankrupt. So, having no money, what was a girl to do? Work in retail, perhaps an office job? No! A slightly different "job" would bring in the big bucks! So Jaimee used the pseudonym 'Crave' and started doing porn. She has since quit the porn industry to allegedly try to start acting again.
Screech isn't just the sound you hear when you jam on the brakes!
It's also the annoying dork from Saved By The Bell. Dustin Diamond played Samuel "Screech" Powers on the show from the former name of Good Morning Miss Bliss, all the way to the end to Saved By The Bell: The New Class. I don't know from a personal perspective (thank the heavens above) but he has apparently made a sex tape. The name of the tape is Screeched. I can't actually picture Screech naked, number one, or better yet naked with 2 women. And since this is something I can't picture in my mind, why in the world would I want to see it up close and personal? The tape is a nauseating 40 minutes long. I wonder how anyone could actually sit through the whole 40 minutes. Now, with unwanted pictures in my head, I move on to the next one.
A Christmas Story.
When I think of Christmas time, I think of great Christmas movies. One of my all-time favorites is A Christmas Story. You'll shoot your eye out, kid! I don't know about you, but hasn't everyone tried to stick his or her tongue to a metal rod in the freezer, just to see what would happen? The memorable scene where actor Scott Schwartz, better known as 'Flick', gets his tongue stuck to the pole on an inevitable Triple Dog Dare is a classic! Schwartz was also in an 80's movie called The Toy. He played the rich boy Eric Bates. When his father, played by Jackie Gleason, asks what he wants for a gift, he chooses Richard Pryor. Yeah, Flick is a porn star, too.
What happened that these child stars that made them turn to the adult film industry?
I'll never know, but it sure is interesting. It makes me begin to think...who's next?

Post a CommentAw, you are So Sweet, gary, for Having such a hatred tOward this, but expressing it in such a "cooL" way. i'm happy to havE gary b as a critic...now my life is complete.
wow, what incredible writing and with so much factual content to chew on it's a real thought provoker too. i'm so glad it's not filled with personal anecdotes, specious judgement passing and completely irrelevant detail. instead you just stuck to the facts, brought them to the fore so they can be easily verified, and provided supporting material to argue your facts. well done!
As weird as this may sound, actors are no different then me or you. They have bills as well. BUT SCREETCH YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very interesting article...kind of makes you think
and EWWW about Screetch!
Very interesting but kinda sad to that they had to do this to make a living.
This article was certainly and eye opener.
Screeched. I am not going to be able to cleanse my mind of that image. LOL.
LOL That was funny! Your first 2 lines almost made me spit my drink all over the screen! :)
Thanks for the comment :)
I bet Screech being in porn is kind of like a wino crapping his pants. You don't want to look, but chances are you wouldn't be able to NOT look. I bet this child star to porn star thing happens quite often, we just aren't always aware because of how the acting industry is. Once you're typecast, you're screwed. If no roles for teen geeks or young hearthrobs become open before that actor or actress grows out of that stage, they have trouble finding work - and porn supposedly pays quite well - and it keeps them off the streets. Now I can't even watch reruns of these shows without breaking into a sickening cackle. Great article.
