Duke Porn Star "Belle Knox": "[To] have that sexual autonomy, it is so incredibly freeing"
Waiting tables at your neighborhood Applebee's.
Logging a few barrista shifts at the campus coffee shop.
Even spending Friday night babysitting a couple of your professor's rug-rats.
These, are some of the typical jobs held by many college students. Performing hardcore sex acts on camera for money? Less common. But this is the part time profession selected by "Belle Knox," a Duke University freshman using porn as a way to offset her robust tuition costs.
After being outed by a classmate, "Knox" opted to publicly reveal her identity with an article titled "I'm the Duke University Freshman Porn Star And For The First Time I'm Telling The Story In My Words," which she wrote for xoJane.com. Joining "Piers Morgan Live" exclusively Thursday evening, she spoke of being empowered by her choice to join the adult film industry:
"We are in a society where we are so repressed, every single day. We’re told that sex is bad. We’re told not to have sex. We’re told not to show our bodies, and that’s really true for women," she explained while seated directly across from Morgan in his LA studio. "To be in porn and to be able to be naked and to be able to be free and have that sexual autonomy, it is so incredibly freeing."
A women's studies major, Knox noted that the cost of attending Duke exceeds 60 thousand dollars annually. Turning to porn is significantly more profitable than traditional clock-punching, and it requires much less of her personal time. And those that are mouthing off about her work, are often times the same people who are logging in to support it:
"I think eighty percent of the world's traffic on the internet is pornography. And I think that probably every single person at some point in their life has watched pornography," said Knox. "So I think it’s extremely hypocritical that the same society that consumes me is also condemning me."
If you're curious as to how she chose her adult film name, she explains that right here.

If that is what that Duke freshman has to do to help pay her incredibly expensive tuition and fee expenses, and it is not illegal, then more strength and perseverance be with her. True, it may be "politically correct" not to loudly proclaim her work to everyone, but to be honest and not ashamed about that work should not be a problem for anyone to deal with. (What exactly does Duke University do, or justify requiring, to have such an expensive educational "tab"?)
To rebuttal @ duff crary. "What exactly does Duke University do, or justify requiring, to have such an expensive educational "tab"?" Well for one its one of the top school in North Carolina. Top school on the Eastern Coast. as well as TOP 20 UNIVERSITIES IN THE COUNTRY... If you want top of the line education you best be ready to shell top of the line money.
I also believe she is .... let me retract that. I believe she has made a very ignorant mistake in doing thing... Why pay $42k a year, when you could go to NC State or UNCC; pay a lot less and still have the same educated values equal to someone (let's say MIT) who came out of MIT. Sure you might be a top look during an application process but as soon as a background check is called into order.. You are screwed. 80-90% screwed for a professional job.
Also she is a load of crap, I've done some research on this girl. Not only did she have enough to pay for school (both parents have middle-high paying jobs) she also had enough scholarships/grant to cover 60% of her tuition. Which might explain why both of her parents will not come onto the scene as well as the school.
UNCC versus MIT...no match my friend. Let me guess...your grades were so so and you attended UNCC but you always dreamed of MIT?
Maybe Duke should reconsider charging their undergrad students $60,000 for tuition every year! That is the real scandal.
She is an absolute idiot...how can you even put her in the category of being smart....
She did get into Duke....
So what? I know plenty of people who went to Duke who are absolute morons.....
Probably got in by banging the chancellor. She's like.. obviously not too.. like bright.
But I would like to consume her.
Sha, Calling people idiots is telling me you don't have a great education. Most people that do have a education wouldn't say that. They would say something more mature.
Let's not forget Bush went to Yale!
An idiot who can easily make $80,000 a year, pay for college, live very well while doing so and be completely debt free. By the time she is mid twenties and ready to settle down she might even own a house free and clear.
I'm so glad that neither my son nor my daughters ever stooped this low in order to afford college. I can't imagine ANY parent being proud of this choice by their child. I also pity any children this girl may have in her future because this stuff NEVER goes away.
She clearly has what it takes to become a US congressperson.
a caveat, I have NOT read through all the comments, but can't she just go to a cheaper school? I used to have the opinion that it was best school or forget it, but I have 6 siblings, and they are successful at many different levels of schools – and I mean incomes over $200K
Of COURSE she could! However, this is not about her family like she claims. It's about her. She is self centered and lacking in morals (thats feminism for you) and she did it for herself.
She is a shallow, selfish idiot. Sadly, I am so very used to this out of American women of my generation. Do something stupid, then blame the first person who finds out for ANYONE finding out. Please. Feminism, you have destroyed my generation.
an idiot *** she is worried about being safe at her school *** she should be worried about a lot more than that *** a pig, with no values ***
Her intellect generally fits nicely as a "dim witted freshman" (which is great for her career), but from Duke? I'm sort of turned off here.
She is right... too many hypocritical goofs out there who have no clue and condemn the woman just because she wants to live her life they way she wants to and has the right to. She is NOT hurting anyone!
Watch one of her videos and tell me the same things afterwards. You are wrong, uninformed.
Well, at least screwing people for money to pay for college is great training for her future career as a lawyer.
I'm not sure that her undergrad degree in "women's studies" will get her into the finest of law schools.
Headline News should read "Cable Network Hits New Low."
You want to finish your career, go to a community college, not an elite college to persuade your dreams.
this is an act of passive violence!
Right!
She works so hard to get into the a top university in the country. Her revelation of the side job will change her entire career ahead of her. She is trying to stand strong to justify herself during this firestorm. But I am sure that she did not realize this could happen when she signed on to do this. Anyway, there is no reason why she has to blame Duke for not giving all the scholarship that she needs.
She was outed by a fellow student? Well, well, well. I guessing that fellow student feels accomplished! This girl will probably be thrown out of Duke within the next few weeks. The University will site "safety concerns" which will be ironic, because "safety of students" on campus is never a high priority.
work it girl
Don't really care how she earns her living, but what a waste of money to study "women's studies" and "sociology" and such an amazing school.
It's her money to waste, and she's not putting herself in debt to earn a degree that will not qualify her to actually do anything, but millions of kids are.
Incredibly empowering. Awesome.
When she turns tricks, Piers would be a perfect pimp.
Whenever she decides to to try and get a normal job, she will realize then what she's done..
Time it will take to pay off tuition at $10,000 per film : one year, 23 films. Time it will take to get her self respect back and get a normal, decent job : A LIFETIME
Why is the media giving her this coverage? Don't they have any respect & dignity? This idiot is some ones daughter that will be kicked out of Duke with all her tricks & STD. Cnn & other media is exploiting like any Pimp? She is so much like Cat Marnell who estranged her parents & sibling. Cat has found a publisher & written her book why she estranged her parents like Patty Davis. These girls are very bright Pot Heads with wiring gone astray. People like her have the gift of the gab & diarrhea of the brain. Unfortunately they suffer from BLPD among other mental illness that needs to be addressed & not be mocked for there stupidity.
There is nothing empowering about getting a load on your face.
Well said. The girl is so naive. Hopefully one day she'll see the truth before it's too late.
Watched some of her videos. Hot stuff. Worth a look if she's your type.
Time for a buffet at Charlie Sheen's home.
Piers, your wife needs more friends.
Has anyone considered her major? Sociology and Women's Studies. I may be way off but some things are not adding up: 1) Father is a doctor and could pay tuition 2) Apparently, she had a free ride to other good schools 3) She's obviously intelligent – would she really botch her future so carelessly?
Perhaps this is a big experiment – part of her cirriculum, an attempt to expose what would happen to a modern day Hester? Oh, how rich it would be – twitter, Facebook, an interview with CNN, families, potential employers, Duke...on and on.
I'm just sayin.
She's too young to know how foolish she is and how embarrassed she will be when she's older.
I'm sure someday her kids will be proud of what a role model their mother was.
She is certainly on the right track to grow up to be a US senator or major media celebrity, and thus would never know the meaning of the word "shame."
More power to her if she could seriously believe it feels "incredibly freeing" doing this. However,there's nothing empowering about being looked at as a piece of a** to others.
Being smart and having class or moral character are different things.
This, my friends, is an example of a strange form of liberalism. She claims that there is a political agenda when people say there is something wrong with that industry but what she doesn't get is that there is. She "seems" to be for woman's rights, but what she doesn't understand is that no matter what she says, she really has no point of going to school anymore. Plain and simple. No job is going to take her after finding this story except the industry she already used to pay for college. Quite plain and simple, if she wants to be in that kind of industry stay with it. She's promoting her actions as if we should serve a silver platter to her and put her in historical books for fighting for the rights of women to stoop low to pay for college. Btw, I also read that her parents were able to pay for college. Another cry for publicity if you ask me.
If this was Obama's daughter would there be such a firestorm?
Dr. Kevin Weeks D.O. of Spokane Wash. will file suit against Duke Univ.
His daughter was a virgin when she entered her freshman year.
Well said.
Cnn is exploiting this vulnerable child. Shame on you and sham on Piers Morgan. This is how he will be remembered when he is soon gone and deservedly so.
Please stop expecting people to feel pity for this so called 'vulnerable' child. It was her own fault that she did this and it was her fault for really believing that people weren't going to find out in college. It's the internet, people are going to find out and she should know that in today's world, there are people with fervent beliefs who react accordingly to incidents. On top of that, she acts with dignity in what she's doing. She did this to herself and she will have to face the consequences of her actions, but now that her face is out there, people are going to exploit her even more than Piers Morgan has.
She brushes off other women's feelings, she is at that age where she knows it all. I'm sure she can justify just about anything she does. Hopefully this is her only moment in the limelight.
Apparently she took Modern Feminist Studies 101 in her first semester.
In the future, her success will be hailed as a milestone in women's rights. There was a time, and not so very long ago, when single mothers and unmarried women who were known not to be virgins were thought of as "fallen women" who had been "ruined" and were unemployable. In fact, there are big parts of the world where this is still true. I predict Belle Knox will be hailed as a heroine. She will also be a powerful person to be reckoned with once her education is complete.
If she was truly in financial need she could get loans, grants, scholarships, etc. etc. but instead she decided to ruin her life by delving into this industry. Yup a true 'hero' of women's rights if you ask liberals. Liberals are the downfall of America. We are on the path to a socialist immoral society with mass government surveillance and oppression...pretty much the Soviet Union with a progressive twist of immorality added.
CNN NEWSFLASH:
Obama offers to trade Miriam Weeks for Edward Snowden.
Putin accepts and will explore deep secrets.
Where are the parents to take care of that girl????
" Liberals are the downfall of America."
It was those damn liberals who put and end to child labor, promoted 40-hour work weeks, ended slavery, got women and minorities the right to vote, ended lynchings and Jim Crow laws, supported a minimum wage, wrote the Pledge of Allegiance and "America the Beautiful," integrated schools, ended the Vietnam War, balanced the federal budget, and created nationalized healthcare, and pushed for enforcement of First Amendment rights for everyone. Yes, they are the downfall of America.
Nixon, who brought an end to the Vietnam war that was started (for US purposes) by Kennedy, was a liberal? And Nixon, who brought about national occupational health and safety (OSHA) was a liberal? Wow... I have been so misinformed.
I've seen her listed as 18, and with several films under her belt (no pun intended!). Was she underage when she started?
American society has failed if the best educated of our youth is resorting to facial abuse for money,and her classmates are watching for pleasure. What a fall for a once dignified society.We are so in love with the concept of freedom that we dont challenge the things that degrade and dishonor us. While her choice is a poor one we as a country are making that choice with her by watching.
OK, just one question:
What did she do that was wrong? I stipulate that "wrong" mean harming others as a result of her actions.
Please only answer this question and don't digress onto your soapbox.
First Libertarian, that is not the definition of wrong, that is your definition and a very narrow one at that. Here are some better ones.
adjective: wrong
1. not correct or true.
2. unjust, dishonest, or immoral.
synonyms: illegal, unlawful, illicit, criminal, dishonest, dishonorable, corrupt; More
unethical, immoral, bad, wicked, sinful, iniquitous, nefarious, blameworthy, reprehensible;
adverb: wrong
1. in an unsuitable or undesirable manner or direction.
noun: wrong; plural noun: wrongs
1. an unjust, dishonest, or immoral action.
synonyms: misdeed, offense, injury, crime, transgression, violation, peccadillo, sin; More
injustice, outrage, atrocity;
tort;
verb: wrong; 3rd person present: wrongs; past tense: wronged; past participle: wronged; gerund or present participle: wronging
1. act unjustly or dishonestly toward (someone).
So to answer your question I would say, "What about her family and their honor"? Is this what every father dreams of for their daughter to do and become? Is this something they can be proud of and cherish for a lifetime?
You want to know who she's harmed as a result of her actions? How about her father for starters. An Army Doctor that just got back from a war zone and found out. A man saving our soldiers' lives as well as Afghanistan's citizens in a battle zone. A Hero. A man of integrity. He comes home to a spoiled brat that's smearing his good name in public worldwide.
When all is said and done, all we have is our integrity. This selfish young woman has destroyed what has taken her father a life time to build. What say all you "free thinkers" now????
I found out about this on a Military web site:
http://undertheradar.military.com/2014/03/army-doctor-returns-home-gets-a-shock/
De F*c* are you saying!?
Do you bring children to this world for your own selfish things? what the hell: "You want to know who she's harmed as a result of her actions? How about her father " ?!?!? seems to me you live in another planet.
Doesn't surprise me very much. It echoes the mind of the vast majority of college girls in this nation. A backwards view of what feminism is and stands for, as well as a victim mentality that gives them the mental right to do what they want without thought of the consequences. Enjoy your time Miss Belle. When you are worn and have a slew of mental issues following this "career", you will be too disgraced and challenged to find another line of work.
Is there a "happy ending" to this?
I came across this site by accident, just surfing around. But I must say it's been a great read so far.

I have pity for Ms Knox. I find this type of behaviour to be degrading for women in general. It is a sad day when we see such innocence being slaughtered. I think this will instead tarnish her credibility and future. How the hell did she get on Piers Morgan anyhow?

Most of the things you state is astonishingly legitimate and that makes me ponder the reason why I had not looked at this in this light previously.

But there is actually one particular point I am not really too comfortable with so while I make an effort to reconcile that with the actual core idea of your issue, allow me observe exactly what all the rest of the visitors have to point out.Very well done.

Some people were enthusiastic players or enjoyed music and dancing. Chances are you’ll remember that you were happiest on the running track. Even so, with increasing obligations maybe you have found no time to have pleasure in any of your interests. Are you affected by depression and want to get free from its abysmal depths without lifelong antidepresants? You could attempt and help yourself to overcome depression naturally.
