Earlier this year, porn star said she accepted hush money so Donald Trump could not have her killed

Stormy Daniels’ lawyer has revealed that the porn star wore a bullet-proof vest to Donald Trump’s hush money trial  because she feared what “some nut might do to her”.

Clark Brewster, Ms Daniels’ attorney, told CNN that testifying in the historic trial had taken its toll on her, revealing that she cried herself to sleep the night before taking the stand.

“She wore a bulletproof vest every day until she got to the courthouse,” he said.

“She was paralyzed with fear – not of taking the stand or telling her story, but what might some nut might do to her. And I’m genuinely concerned about it as well.”

    It stood out to me because I happened to hear one of the talking heads refer to her as a porn star - but the guy was definitely left of center and was overall bashing the twice-impeached president. So I thought oh maybe we’re trynna normalize porn star as a phrase!

      Its already the norm though, I’ve always heard the term porn star, the others I’ve been only hearing since a year or two. Albeit I don’t live in an english speaking country.

      It is normal, isn’t it? “Adult film actress” is a euphemism, I can’t imagine hearing anyone I know say it.

      It’s interesting that when talking about films and TV we often use actor to describe both men and women, but in porn women are always actresses haha.
