How else to explain the raft of young, beautiful, powerful actresses — and some old enough to know better — enthusiastically participating in outright pornography?
Per Variety, the latest is powerhouse , age 33 and worth a reported $700 million, now set to star in a four-hour 'X-rated epic.'
Variety should just call this what it really is: Porn.

The director, Brady Corbet, is no one many have heard of — but once you look him up, it all makes sense.
Corbet is a middle-aged, overweight, short, unattractive man. It's a theme with these guys.

Just look at Euphoria creator and showrunner Sam Levinson, touted by HBO and much of the mainstream media as a genius.
He is not. Levinson, too, is middle-aged, not terribly attractive, and seems to have real issues with women, who he depicts in all manner of sexual degradation.
Gomez is hardly an outlier here. Consider Elle Fanning, the elegant, Oscar-nominated young actress who is also the face of Cartier, Coach, Paco Rabanne fragrance and L'Oréal Paris.
Yet here she is in the Apple TV+ series 'Margo's Got Money Problems,' playing an OnlyFans creator — just like Sydney Sweeney's Euphoria character.
The showrunner here, too, is a man: David E. Kelley, the Hollywood vet married to 'Margo' star Michelle Pfeiffer.
Fanning, 28, is often topless. She told People magazine that she was 'really proud' of the way her frequent nudity 'was depicted in the show.'
Yet she also pointed out that she wore prosthetic breasts for the scenes in which her character is breastfeeding.

So just how 'proud' is she, really? Let alone comfortable?
Why does the audience need to see her character's breasts? Especially when they've been made to look sore and raw?
Her male costar, Nick Offerman, made a joke about what he could have earned had OnlyFans been around when he was a teenager: 'How much can I make for, you know, juggling dildos? . . . I definitely would have considered it.'
Really? Would Offerman want that for his own son or nephew or godchild?
It's all so impossible to believe.
Fanning, it seems, is the latest to think that Cool Girls in Hollywood have no problem with onscreen nudity or sexual degradation. Or that such humiliations mark you as a serious artist.
She, Sweeney and Gomez seem to buy the line — the lie — that explicit sex acts are necessary for ostensible verisimilitude.
They're not. It's all a con job perpetrated by some of the most powerful men in Hollywood. Are the guys who had trouble with girls in high school now getting their revenge behind the camera?
This is what #MeToo was for? Really?
It's all so profoundly disturbing and depressing. How is it that Sydney Sweeney is seemingly convinced that being dressed as a dog, made to get down on all fours and lick water from a bowl — as her character did on a recent episode of Euphoria — has any artistic merit whatsoever?
Or dressing as a baby, with a pacifier in her mouth, and spreading her legs, is nothing other than sick?

It's damning when actual OnlyFans content creators call out the show, and the scenarios Levinson puts Sweeney in, as outrageous.
Days before breaking the news that Gomez will star in a lengthy ode to porn, Variety ran quite a different headline: 'Sydney Sweeny's Euphoria Sex Worker Is Really Pissing Off OnlyFans Models.'
Quoted was Sydney Leathers — previously best known as the online affair partner who took down Anthony Weiner during his run for mayor of New York City — who has been on OnlyFans since 2017.
'There's just a lot that's ridiculous and cartoonish about [Euphoria],' Leathers said. 'There's so much that they have [Sweeney] doing that is not even allowed on OnlyFans, and that alone is infuriating: the age-play stuff where she's dressed as a baby in a diaper, for example. Credit card processors have very strict rules that you have to abide by, and the rules are getting stricter all the time.'
Levinson was also responsible for HBO's odious series 'The Idol', starring Lily-Rose Depp (center) as a fallen pop star and The Weeknd (right) as her sadomasochistic, abusive boyfriend
Levinson's revenge, it seems, is to have turned Zendaya's character into a drug mule (Pictured: Scene from Euphoria)
Perhaps it's not so shocking that these younger actresses seem to view porn, or porn-adjacent scenes, as empowering.
Cate Blanchett, it turns out, is also signed to star in this 4-hour-long 'porn epic' with Gomez.
And none other than Nicole Kidman, Hollywood royalty, performed similarly in 2024's Babygirl — crawling across the floor, during a sex scene, and licking from a cat bowl to show her character's deference.
Her character's humiliation kink.
That's what Hollywood's become now, with the assent of incredibly wealthy, powerful young actresses who absolutely have the power to say no, to speak up, to raise holy hell in any progressive publication they like about being exploited: It's all just one big humiliation kink.
