"I was earning thousands of pounds a time for sleeping with wealthy punters. They'd pay a fortune knowing they were having sex with a porn star. I'd get as much as 4,000 pounds for an all-night session. I should have been set up for life but all the money was being blown on drugs. I was a train crash," she added.
