Great bit of info, thanks for sharing
I'm surprised they allowed someone with a fetish background into that movie.
Sounds like it was a valid question in the 1970s.
Based on a conversation I had with Kim Wilde, lots of mainstream crew-mebers, then as now, pick up extra side work from shooting porn. They just don’t use their names.
Francis Ford Coppela got his start doing porn, as did Wes Craven & Barry Sonnenfeld, who most recently did the kids’ book series A Series of Unfortunate Events for Netflix. David Hasselhoff & Stallone did a porn each. Actress & singer Traci Lords did underage porn & nobody knew. The Hangover Part II had a full-on porn star as a supporting character who moved the plot along. Someone from RealTickling did a KFC commercial & Gabrielle from Tickling Paradise sang ad jingles, which is why she never showed her face in videos.
Even George Floyd did porn. You can watch it on all the pirate sites.
Extras, including featured extras, are never “prescreened” about their past work. I don’t know why it would be a question now.
The question of how a fetish model turns up in mainstream films is a valid one. In older-school Hollywood, there was a stigma about doing porn, i.e., that it would keep you from ever landing mainstream gigs, but this barrier has weakened over time and is no longer a hard-and-fast standard---just like the old stigma of actors being discouraged from doing TV, "or else you'll never do movies again," a barrier that pretty much was dead and buried by the 1970s, as actors routinely have gone back and forth since then (movie studios viewed TV as a threat to them until fears subsided that people would stop going out to movie theaters and merely watch TV).
She's just an extra with a no lines that's in the scene for like literally 2 seconds. I highly...HIGHLY doubt they gave 2 shits about her resume. I also highly doubt she listed tickle fetish videos. My guess is they were filming in the area, she showed up to be an extra, she was hotter than most of the other women there that day, so they stuck her in a scene for 2 seconds standing in a line.
KFC meaning Kinky Foot Cuties, right? ;0)
I would buy stock in that company!
