Laurence Fishburne's daughter makes a porno

Fishburne's daughter, Montana, was born in 1991, the same year that movie was released. And 19 years later, Fishburne would have to say to his daughter, "You embarrassed me." Because in the real world, he was not able to keep his daughter from making quite possibly the most foolish decision of her life, despite her privileged surroundings: Montana Fishburne has decided to become a porn star.

And she used her real name, which is supposedly the part that her father found embarrassing. Apparently no one uses their real name in porn (psst: half of them don't use their real body parts either, but that's another issue).

Yes, she's 19. "Legal," according to the law -- side note: does it seem a bit silly, in this context, that she can't have a beer on the set?
"I've watched how successful Kim Kardashian became, and I think a lot of it was due to the release of her sex tape," Montana said in a statement through Vivid Entertainment, which is distributing the DVD. "I'm hoping the same magic will work for me."
I'm sorry, what? Magic? The 2006 movie "Akeelah and the Bee" was dedicated to you! Your dad is an Oscar nominee, a box office draw who headlines one of the most popular dramatic series on television. Surely he has a connection or two in Tinseltown. And you need an extra edge to become famous?
Cry me a river, kid. You already had one leg up in the entertainment world.
Orlando Sentinel columnist Darryl E. Owens put it better than I could when he asked this disturbing question in a recent column: "If Kardashian, Paris Hilton and others of dubious talent can influence someone who presumably already holds a golden ticket, what of the millions whose daddies aren't Hollywood A-listers?"
Shudder.

If it takes a famous person like Chastity Bono to openly go through the process to create dialog, that's great. But not everyone is so lucky to have a built in fan-base, financial reserves, good connections. And not everyone is an independent adult. 



I'm sure the parents who sent their kids there are so proud, especially of their studio art majors, for whom the virginity rate is, I kid you not, 0. Couldn't find a virgin in the bunch. Of course, that's probably the catch: "the bunch," that is, the sample size, is probably too small for this study to have any meaningful statistical value.
