It would be entirely possible to enjoy Stoya's work without ever seeing her perform in porn (though you'd be missing out). Despite, as previously mentioned, not taking the Hollywood route, she did appear in a small indie film called The Kingpin Of Pain in 2009. She has also proven herself to be an excellent, eloquent writer across a number of topics and for a variety of publications. She's active on social media, like Twitter and Tumblr, where she engages with social issues, particularly surrounding women's rights and sex work. Perhaps most interestingly, Stoya has worked with a number of artists, including frequent collaborations with her friend, Molly Crabapple for whom she has modelled and performed. She was also the subject of the first video in the Hysterical Literature series directed by photographer Clayton Cubitt. These videos are shot in black and white and feature a woman reading a book of her choice with the bottom half of her body concealed beneath a table. As she reads, she is stimulated by a person under the table with a vibrator. The resulting videos are a beautiful mashup of art and pornography (and a means of getting off in a "classy" way, if that's your jam) (black and white makes everything classy. EVERYTHING).
Brydie is an Australian writer and performer living in London and she complains exactly the same amount about the weather as every other Australian living in London. Yes, that is her natural lip colour, no, she will not be taking any further questions at this time.
