The provocative teen show Euphoria is mostly known for starring Zendaya and making a star out of Sydney Sweeney and Jacob Elordi. The teen drama about drugs and suicide is a very controversial show. Much like its subject matter, for its second season, the show cast former adult star Chloe Cherry as the drug addict Faye.

Chloe Cherry gets real about her experience in Hollywood, porn, and the service industry

Sex work is often disregarded and sex workers are not given enough credit or respect feels Chloe Cherry. She shattered the misconception about exploitation in the porn industry, calling it a much safer profession than being a cocktail server. As a former adult film actress, Cherry always enjoyed porn and wanted to become a showgirl since she was little. She was always confident in her sexuality and she moved to Miami at 18 to pursue a career in porn. 

Porn is an art form in this world that people should respect,” she said in an OnlyFan Live video as per DailyBeast
