She was 18 when 12 men in prison costumes lined up in front of her. She said no. The director said do it. She was paid $4,000 for the shoot. She couldn’t stop crying after. The director didn’t say a word to her. He got his box cover. Two years earlier she was a cheerleader and field hockey star in Utah. Daughter of a bishop in the Mormon Church. Family of eight kids. Wasn’t allowed to watch The Simpsons. Wasn’t allowed to watch Dirty Dancing. The kind of girl entire congregations build futures around. Her name is Belladonna. She was born Michelle Sinclair in 1986. At 14 she was molested by an older boy. She tried to take her own life after. At 18 she drove her mom’s car to Los Angeles alone with no money. A recruiter on FetLife told her she could make some extra cash. Her first scene was supposed to be one thing. The director changed it on the spot to something she’d never done. She didn’t know she could say no. “I didn’t know any better. They lie to you all the time,” she says. A week later her agent sent her to a real prison set. Twelve men. She tried to back out. He insisted. $4,000. She describes it like a piece of meat thrown into a lion’s cage. 12 lions. She went home to Utah. Came back a year later. Shot 200 to 300 films. Contracted chlamydia. Started using drugs on set. Had a breakdown. Told a reporter she didn’t want to be alive anymore. Her rate for the roughest scenes was $1,500. The films she appeared in made millions for the studios distributing them. The warehouse worker packing her DVDs got hepatitis B vaccines. She got no health coverage. In the video below, she sits across from Diane Sawyer and explains what happened in that prison set the way a kid would explain a car accident she was in. Matter of fact. Still smiling. Sawyer asks her why she’s smiling while describing the worst moments of her life. She stops. “I like to hide my real emotions. I don’t like myself.” Her mother found out through co-workers who recognized her daughter. She asked herself one question after another. Was it because of the divorce. Was it because she raised her in the church. Was she not rich enough. Was she not humble enough. She never got an answer. A Mormon bishop’s daughter from Utah became one of the most recognized names in the roughest side of the industry, was never paid fairly for it, and the only person who asked “did I do something wrong” was her mother. Did the industry exploit a girl who didn’t know she could say no, or did she walk back into it a year later because nobody on the outside was offering her $4,000 for anything?
