Jamiee Foxworth on Oprah **Warning-nudity!!!**She is too pretty not to have been getting any work anywhere! I know it's hard to get roles in Hollywood, and that it's even harder for black actresses, but she couldn't do anything besides porn? I don't know what to think of her agency or her parents (she said she didn't finish school).
Once an innocent child star, Jaimee found herself entering into the seedy underworld of porn. At age 19, she says she agreed to do a photo shoot for a swimsuit calendar. When she arrived at the studio, Jaimee realized there was more money to be made in the adult film industry.
Intoxicated and feeling pressured by her boyfriend to come up with some cash, she agreed to do an explicit sex scene with another actress. During this time, Jaimee recounts that her "self-esteem was just completely to the floor."
"It was, to me, the quickest money," Jaimee says. "I was so naïve, and I was drinking."
After living the life of a child star, Jaimee says she didn't have any skills to fall back on and working at a fast-food joint wasn't an option that she considered. "I'd never lived a normal childhood," she says. "I always went to auditions."
Jaimee remembers feeling ridiculous and degraded after making a porn film, but she never thought anyone would find out…at least not for a few years.

OMG! I wasn't ready for those pics!
OH MY!
Did Oprah ask her about those porn movies?
That's why I put the warning there. Don't scroll down, or go fast if you ain't ready. She did some hard core sh*t. I don't know if she will ever work in Hollywood again after that.
I didn't read any of the words. That was my fault.
smh
OH MY!
Did Oprah ask her about those porn movies?
yeah. That's what the show was about. She didn't really go into details, and Oprah said that she didn't watch them, but her producers did. Jamie said she did her first scene with a girl because she felt more comfortable that way. I will post the rest of the story for all of you who are interested. It's long, but will clear some things up for you who haven't heard:
In the 1990s, the squeaky-clean sitcom Family Matters topped television ratings. Jaimee Foxworth, the child actress who played Judy Winslow, was living the Hollywood dream. She was making audiences laugh alongside Urkel, a cultural icon of the times, and making great money.
But, Jaimee's child stardom didn't last long. After only three seasons, Jaimee was let go from Family Matters, and she struggled to adjust to her new life.
Her family's money problems quickly mounted, and suddenly, Jaimee says, she was broke. Jaimee says she turned to alcohol and her life spiraled out of control.
Once an innocent child star, Jaimee found herself entering into the seedy underworld of porn. At age 19, she says she agreed to do a photo shoot for a swimsuit calendar. When she arrived at the studio, Jaimee realized there was more money to be made in the adult film industry.
Intoxicated and feeling pressured by her boyfriend to come up with some cash, she agreed to do an explicit sex scene with another actress. During this time, Jaimee recounts that her "self-esteem was just completely to the floor."
"It was, to me, the quickest money," Jaimee says. "I was so naïve, and I was drinking."
After living the life of a child star, Jaimee says she didn't have any skills to fall back on and working at a fast-food joint wasn't an option that she considered. "I'd never lived a normal childhood," she says. "I always went to auditions."
Jaimee remembers feeling ridiculous and degraded after making a porn film, but she never thought anyone would find out…at least not for a few years.
Once Jaimee realized her secret was out, she knew she had to tell her mother.
"That was the hardest thing," she says. "But it was a relief. Once she found out, she didn't reprimand me, she didn't yell at me, she said, 'I still love you and we have to deal with this.'"
In no time, Jaimee's steamy sex scene was all over the Internet. It was also duplicated in more than a hundred adult films. The wholesome star of Family Matters now had a risqué reputation to overcome.
"I couldn't hold my head high," Jaimee says. "I couldn't walk around and say 'My name is Jaimee Foxworth' without someone saying, 'Ew,' or, 'We heard about you'. That's the most degrading part. I lost all my confidence. I lost all my self-esteem. I lost friends. I lost some family members."
Now, years after she made the mistake that would change her life forever, Jaimee has a special message to share with young women.
Jaimee wants to share her mistake with the world so she can take responsibility for her actions and send a message to young women…especially those thinking about a career in the entertainment industry.
"When I was on Family Matters, I thought the money was never going to stop," Jaimee says. "I thought I was never going to be broke. So I say to young girls, always have another option. Try to go for your dreams. Don't try to be just what you see on TV."
If she had stayed in school and gone on to college, Jaimee says she may have been an acting coach or a doctor after her sitcom stardom faded.
That's really sad. She never said why she was dropped from the show?
Aint no money in the world worth my self-respect...totally disgusting.
Ditto !
I rather be a waitress in a lousy bar than a porn star !
^^ wasnt it drugs?
I don't know if it was drugs or not. She was only 14 when she was dropped. She said the drug and alcohol abuse started later when she became depressed.
OMG! I wasn't ready for those pics!
Dammmmmmmmmmmn!!!!! Neither was I. Ya'll should have saw how fast I turned my computer off in disgust, and slowly turned it back on while peaking ever so slowly. Now that is so disgusting, I am truly lost for words, and I guest so much more disgusted because she was once a well visual TV character, and then have to go the Porno Route.......just sad, simply sad. Shit she says she had no education, well Dah, carry your black ass back to school.....no she wanted wealth and the quick and fast dollar, but look what happened.
The only pornstar i know who done great for herself that jameson chick who has like a mansion in AZ and crazy cars.
The Olsen Twins seem like the only young stars that really did well for themselves-thanks to their parents. I can't even front if I found out my parents (who are supposed to be responsible) blew my money....I'd probably take them the court. I mean that lil girl didn't mess up her own finances. That is partly her parents fault.
Man, I just finished reading the story, and I feel sad for her and I have simpathy. God bless her.
