Kiki Minaj, one of the nominees, who says she switched to adult modelling from accountancy two years ago, has noticed a decline in the amount of work available, even in that timeframe. “When I started I was being booked for filming three or four times a week, now it’s once a week if you’re lucky,” she says. She has had to become more open-minded about what she is prepared to do. “If you don’t do special stuff, you get someone from Poland who will come and do it for half the price. It’s just like construction.”
The event leaves even some in the industry feeling a bit depressed. “Most people who get into the adult industry don’t choose to get into it; they fall into it,” an adult TV company director says. “I didn’t want to work in the adult industry. I would walk away tomorrow, between you and me. It is a bit boring.”
