There have always been beautiful women in porn. Nobody’s debating that. But could it be that there’s more beautiful women currently working in porn than ever before? Well, like arguments about rap and sports, there’s gonna be old school heads that will scoff at such claims. Still, it’s something to consider as you check out Complex’s Top 100 Hottest Porn Stars. What's kind of weird about the abundance of gorgeous starlets is that the porn game isn’t what it used to be. The business has been hit hard by online piracy. But performers have adapted. The typical plan is to get hired by the bigger companies for maximum exposure and then use social media to get in touch directly with fans. If a starlet has a new scene coming out, is featured dancing at the local strip club, or is just doing a private webcam show later, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat come in handy in getting the word out. It’s a good system—when it works. Porn stars often deal with their accounts getting deleted or hacked and fake profiles popping up everywhere. They also have to deal with the physical strain of grueling scenes, personal problems, or the desire to start a new life. When this happens, they quit. Sometimes they vanish, leaving fans wondering what happened. Other times they “retire,” only to come back a few months later. If you find yourself perusing the list wondering where so and so is, consider that she may not be doing porn at this moment. You'd be surprised—many of the usual suspects are on hiatus. So before you get your heart broken that your favorite has retired, know that she might return in some capacity. And while you wait, there’s plenty more active hot women in porn filling the void.
