NL-According to her Tweets over the last week or so, RayVeness is retiring from porn. Something happened on her last movie set that soured her on porn. Although hundreds have asked her what it is, she won’t answer that question. She says she is now writing a book called "Growing Up To Be A Porn Star", and starting an after school music program for kids so they don’t get into gangs. She also mentioned that she has songs on Itunes, and has done mainstream acting- Www.youtube.com/GinaRayeTV
Here are some of the tweets, some are continued and they go in backwards order- RayVeness
All I can tell you is its from Smash Pictures and Jim Powers (and I actually love them both) they are just tryin to make money. (today)
I want to thank my fans that supported me for the last 20 yrs. (today)
So I have decided to quit porn because of the last movie I did. I am shooting one more scene
ADULT career. I hate doing a new script and saying, "We have to hurry and have sex cause my daughter will be home from school soon".

incest. Like mom’s sleeping with her son or dad’s sleeping with their teen daughters and this is NOT ok with me!

a long time ago, ADULT, was fun, with passion and your scene partners were more like your family but today’s ADULT movies are moving towards

Yep, this just goes to show that quality performers are being discouraged and are getting run out of the business due to the not so secret pedophillic perversions of the current dominant parties running the show here in LA.
Don’t give up RayVeness, start your own company and be in scenes that work for YOU and that YOU are comfortable with. Take cue from Nyomi Banxxx and Nina Mercedez. Your fanbase will follow and support you.
Sorry to hear about RayVeness – hope the other things she has going will be very successful.
Porn is not what it used to be. It’ll never be like that again unfortunatly.
I hope she comes back, she is a quality individual who is a good mom, has a strong faith and is very talented as a singer and actress. She has some songs on ITunes, while they are not my cup of tea they show real talent. As a legit actress she’s had some small roles but was in John Frankenheimer’s HBO Movie “Path to War” as one of LBJs daughters. She has also done a lot of charitable work(non porn), including work for a disease that has affected some members of her family.(I hope she wont mind me saying that). Her child is getting a little bit older so that may be working on her. Her career, while not as flashy as many others, has been one of hard work and solid judgment. Julia Ann and her are examples of how actresses should pursue a career in porn, not the messes we see with the girls around Charlie Sheen or older porn workers like Ginger Lynn, Chasey and of course Janine. She has worked for a lot of assholes I may say but most folks have to, sad.
Im sorry but a porn star is NOT a good mom. She may love her kids and may take good care of them to the best of her ability but she has dropped an anchor around her kids necks that they will carry for the rest of their lives.
I was a porn star and I’m a great mom, and I don’t raise them to be judgemental assholes like you Karmafan, I guess what they say is true, karma is a bitch!
Your kid will be 90 and at his wake folks will still be talking to others at the wake saying “did you know his mom was a porn star”?
Better that than my mom was a judgemental cunt, Yea, I said it!
What happened? Did she get donkey-punched? Was Jim just doing his “degrading whores daily” schtick?
hey karma , why do u hang out on porn blogs when you despise porn and the people in it ?
Rayveness is a quality , take no shit , southern woman.
Um, not to disagree…. But she used to work as a hooker and write about her lesbian hookups in Nashville.
Steele, bet your right about Powers doing something degrading, he must have pushed the wrong button. She seemed to cool with the two scenes she shot were Johnny Thrust played her “retarded” son, complete with helmet, who watches while she’s with some guy. Thrust as a retard, perfect.
Powers’ philosophy is that there has to be something wrong with you for you to be a porn star. Is he right?
I don’t despise porn and the people in it. I love porn. Just responded to the “porn star is a good mom sentence”. Thats kinda like Army Intelligence or Jumbo Shrimp.
My kid is only 4 and he can read because I teach him everyday, he knew his ABC’s before he turned 2. He says please, thank you, and “may I be excused”, when he’s done at the dinner table, he addresses people as “sir or ma’am”.He says I love you, mom everyday which is music to my ears. I read to him every night before bed. I’m deeply offended by Karmafan’s narrowmindedness.
Why are you offended, Ruby? That’s Karmafan’s view–and frankly, the way society looks down on porn stars is always going to be a downside to the profession.
I’m offended by her generalization of mothers who have worked in the sex industry, and that they all must be lousy moms because they chose to work in that industry, for whatever reason. I will prepare my children on how to deal with those kind of people. If 2 million women have been in the sex industry at one time or another, that’s a lot of moms! And what about those women who do it so their kids can eat or go to a quality school, or have a roof over their heads. What about those women? Karmafan doesn’t seen too bright to me, maybe because her or his own mom could have done a better job.
Some people just believe “whores will be whores” and their children would be whores. I’m not saying it’s right. I agree with you and you seem like a good mom. Its just sex work is evokes such strong opinions from people…
I think that women who would let their children starve because they wouldn’t do it are not very good moms. Like Octomom. I would do anything for my children!
Raise the age limit for girls to get into the industry and the industry will have to change (for the better). I , for one , have always been a fan of GROWN women not empty headed kids.
Mom life and professional life could and should be seperate.
All that, the sins of the parents BS is just that , BS !
Bad porn moms are Janine, Tiffany Mynx(pimping out her son), Desi Foxx(pimping out her daughter)…that’s what a bad porn mom truly is.
One of the best performers I have seen. She did fantastic jobs for Girlfriend Films, I will miss her a lot. It is her decisión. Best wishes for you Rayveness.
Bringing up Octomom doesn’t really help your case in fact, it makes Karmafan’s point all the more practical. Don’t bring up somebody that’s insane to prove a point when it does the opposite.
Rayeness is going to be missed by this guy. Goddamn, she is fucking gorgeous and sexy as all hell. She has the looks of a movie star for my money. I even like that she put on a little weight here recently. She is entire package that woman. Very underrated.
AND WHY IS jANINE A BAD MOM ?
Janine used to be an addict. And I brought up the octomom because Vivid offered to get her out of debt and she refused, keeping her kids on public assistance so now were all paying for her kids. She was my example of a bad mom who wouldn’t do pornto help her kids, there are bad moms in every walk of life, and you can always be a better parent no matter what you do for a living, I hate generalizations. Ignorant people generalize things because it makes things simpler for them.
Janine USED to be an addict .she has really shitty taste in men. octomom should probably be tested to see if she is competent to take care of herself much less all them younguns.
Rayveness will surely be missed, but everything comes to an end, and if she feels it’s now the time to quit porn and move on, then so be it. I wish her the best.
