Maybe not her most lucrative, but more like the srategy stars like Angela White benefited from: Use the years leading up to OnlyFans to build a bigger brand, and once independent content pops off, you aren't playing catch up to reestablish yourself. Instead, you're a household name that people immediately want to see more of.
Regarding the reduction, I don't like reduction shaming at all. What she did, though, was an accidental massive career mistake. She got her surgery after her first stint and didn't predict coming back to porn. If you're a private citizen or a new private citizen, that makes perfect sense.
Something happened to where she felt like she had to resort to porn again, years after retirement, to make a living instead of working in some quiet office in the middle of the country to pay for rent and groceries, for example. That's another thing.
But when she comes back in 2019 or 2020, I distinctly remember seeing her complain on social media that fans who weren't a fan of the reduction, or who were fans of her previous tiddies, "weren't real fans." She thought she was saying something when she said someone wasn't a true fan of a pornstar for the sexual aspect they used to like about her and don'tlike that it's gone.
Now, she's lauching crowd funding to get fake tiddies and is only keeping her head above water in this golden age of independent content. She also doesn't seem to be happy about much or to even play an online persona that enjoys what she does.
All this to say that she's not really into it, and I think we as fans can sense that.
