White has 2.5million followers of Instagram, and said her love for her job is what separates her from other performers.
‘My passion is what makes me stand out as a producer, director and a performer. Fans want to see and feel a real connection on screen and they can tell when a performer isn’t completely engaged,’ she said.
She said average pay for woman porn stars was ‘difficult to gauge’ but the average rate is between $1260-$1500 for one scene.

White said she was criticised for the way she expressed her sexuality when she was younger, being called a ‘slut’ and a ‘lesbian’ and even being punched in the face
It wasn’t until she began working in porn that she found her ‘thick’ body type was being celebrated
White said she charges more for scenes which are more labour-intensive, such as anal
‘My scenes start at $1900,’ she said. ‘But that rate does not include anal. Anal requires more preparation and thus more labour time so there is an additional cost. The more complex the act and the more people involved, the higher my rate will be.’
She said her first shoot was for Voluptuous magazine, where she was ‘treated like a princess and my curves were finally celebrated’.
