Like many big-name adult entertainers, White’s primary source of income is her website, where fans buy access for US$29.95 (AU$40.35) per month. The people who watch White on Pornhub are literally taking money out of her pocket. Now, a pirated version of Ferrara and White’s scene has garnered nearly 700,000 views on Pornhub. Back in Jenna Jameson’s heyday, a top release might sell 100,000 copies. That might have been impressive before streaming smut and online piracy tanked DVD sales. “Angela 3” also ranked as the 15th-most-purchased DVD last year on Adult Empire, one of the largest online porn retailers in the world. She would only reveal that DVD sales for the film were strong enough to cover the cost of production. In keeping with the industry’s penchant for secrecy, White declined to provide sales figures. While “Angela 3” is a critical darling, it’s hard to gauge its commercial success. While those movies are still getting made, no one is waiting around for them to drop. Just a decade ago, the old-school porn studios signed the most popular entertainers to exclusive contracts and fans followed their favourite female stars by buying the studio’s big release. “Angela 3” featured White and fellow veteran Manuel Ferrara having sex for 93 minutes straight, but it was what happened after was more 'hardcore' than anything else. But White and Ferrara’s all-in performance stunned them. He and his wife prefer the kind of plot-heavy epics that America’s best-known porn star, Stormy Daniels, directs. porn reviewer James Sharp isn’t even a fan of “gonzo porn” - the storyless genre “Angela 3” fits within. “Angela 3” also scored six Adult Video News awards - the Oscars of porn - with White and Ferrara taking home “best boy/girl sex scene.” The 2017 film, according to White, was the best-selling of her career. More shocking, it broke probably the last taboo in porn by showing two people engaged in - gasp! - emotional intimacy.ĭefying convention paid off with fans and critics. “Angela 3” is becoming a rarity in the porn world: a star-driven sexual extravaganza that ignores the industry’s mandate to pack as much fornication as possible into 30 minutes or less. At the end of the scene, I cried, it was so emotionally touching.”
“Delving into your emotionality and opening yourself up like that. “It was way more hardcore than all those extreme physical acts,” White told The Post. But instead of fading to black when they were spent, the camera kept rolling for an unprecedented 17 minutes while the two chewed over what they had just done as if they were in couples therapy. “Angela 3” featured White and fellow veteran Manuel Ferrara having sex for 93 minutes straight without a single cutaway. AFTER 15 years as a top porn actress, Angela White’s crowning achievement was showing what happens after sex.
