They live in a country where there's opportunity to get financial protection for such events. They chose not to. Insurance is not that expensive.

Who's fault is it they're broke?

I'm sick of all these legal prostitutes and their captain save a ho's getting handouts every time their life goes wrong when they make good enough money to protect themselves.

There's plenty of people in this industry making way way less and would never accept a dime when shit like this happens.

I feel sorry for her children but how is throwing money at it really going to help anyone get their father back?

Should she have been out of work for a while due to an injury and needed to get back on her feet, different story.

but i bet ya made some money from her one time or another

thats what i said. there isn't any mention of any accident or his death in any newspapers or stations. not to mention her description of the accident. something just smells a little fishy to me (but i could be wrong)

i just think it was tasteless to beg for money right away if you want to donate go ahead i am broke anyway lol, but it just seems to show the type of person she must be, my advice to her run out now in a hot outfit and goto a club or resturaunt and pick up a new meal ticket lol...should be pretty easy to bag a dumb but rich stock broker or mortgage broker :D

thats pretty close minded

Whos site is lukeisback.com ? lol

So let her work for a living like the rest of us. Raise her kids, perhaps meet a new guy who'll help out with the financial aspects.

Panhandling strangers online within a short time of the death of your spouse is unwarranted and ballsy.

Like others have already said - her husband should've prepared for the future and had life insurance. My wife and I do...and we're by no means considered rich.

It really burns my ass when people just can't take responsibility for themselves - especially where children are involved. Like the old saying goes - if you make your bed badly...you get wrinkled.

Sure but half the people on GFY are socialists, to the point of nearly being fascist and think everyone should get handouts for being stupid. And her not having insurance is just that - fucking stupid.

Sorry I hate socialism in every possible way. It is not socialism to dontate to someone who has at the very least given you great pleasure over the years. She did NOT demand anyone donate a dime, she said if anyone WANTS to donate to help out.. here is the means to do it. If you dont fucking want to DONT!! Dont call her a crack whore for offering a means for people to help out if they WANT TO!. I guaranfuckingtee that there are LOTS of people that would be trying to contact her to find out how to help.

Instead you fuckin retards on here start bashing her. Karma is a fuckin bitch, round it will come.

What it proves once again is EVERYONE should have some type of insurance!


Everyone that doesn't at some point has made a mental decision NOT to.

Go ahead, call us retards.

Even retards know the importance of an insurance policy. :321GFY

Who said SHE doesn't have insurance? He's the one who died. For all we know she has a million dollar life insurance policy.

I know several people who have been turned down for life insurance because of something as simple as diabetes.

We don't know the whole story, she isn't going public asking for donations, she doing it on her own fan site (the only reason it's here is because Duck Ford has to stick his ignorant neck into everyone else's business) and we don't know where her mind is in relation to all this.

And it STILL means you can donate if you want, or not. We're all (I think) adults here and can decide what we do and want to do with the money we've earned :)

this has to be the most naive or stupid thing I've read regarding the online adult industry...

I don't know why everyone presumes pornstars make millions, the only one who I think really is a millionaire is Jenna Jameson and I heard Peter North is very well off and so is TT Boy. There's more money for guys who direct their own lines of video like TTBoy (Evasive Angels) and Vince Voyeur (Red Light).

I saw Katie Morgan on HBO in a special about porn and she said a REALLY good month for her is 8-9k. I am guessing maybe a top girl makes at the most 20k-30k something a month but the majority is probably not even close to that. It's not very hard to spend it all if you are living large.

I am willing to bet most pornstars don't make much at all, only the elite like Jenna or super popular new girls like Amy Reid. The rest are making a bit and spending it all.

I read Asia's daily bulletins many years ago when she still used to live in Malibu. Malibu is not cheap and I think she was renting a very expensive house and driving a silver Corvette.

I doubt her kids will grow up destitute, not growing up super comfortable and well off is NOT bad for a child, I think it probably builds character than anything else. Children turn out fine even if their parents are not rich, there's nothing wrong with kids suffering a bit, I doubt her child will suffer to the point where they are going hungry (as many kids in US actually still DO).

They won't die if they can't afford the latest sneakers or clothes.

what amazes me most about this thread is the amount of people that think porn girls make insane money

porn girls get paid ONCE per movie, and that generally is about $1000-2000....and they do about ONE movie a week, if that...some girls work more, some less, but there are barely any long term porn girls that have been in this for years that work every day, it just doesn't happen

besides that fact, Asia hasn't done a new movie or done porn in a LONG time.....

yes, she should have had better protection in place for her kids, I agree with that, but to think porn girls are raking in cash constantly shows that some of you have NO clue about porn girls and their incomes

You didnt bash her the way some did, and thats what Im bitching about. Just opinionating on her situation, isnt bashing. Calling her a porn whore, and saying she was probably on coke and blew all her money on that is. That isnt only bashing her, but all the women in this industry who work on the other side of the camera. Its FUCKING RUDE AND AN INSULT TO THE WHOLE INDUSTRY!! Yet somehow its finding alot of support on these boards. The thing we all fight for is validity in the eyes of the public, and many here are helping put forth the standard sterotypes. Its ESPECIALLY DEMEANING about the woman that this thread is concerning. She is and EXTREMELY bright person with an IQ and intellegence higher than probabably 90% of this board. If you people trying to bring her down cant see this, than I guess it proves my point of the lower IQ than Asia's

Point taken.

I retract the earlier bird flip.

:winkwink: :thumbsup

can anyone even confirm this story or is everyone just blindly believing this story?

She has no reason to lie. Its a bit early for it to be out there all over yet.

it happened saturday. ive had alot of friends and family die tragically and it was never overlooked by papers, obits, or law enforcement departments. This guy (don) is fairly well known so i would think that someone else would have said something by now

Where do you look for the obit? Their hometown? Where it happened?

it would be in the hometown paper. you can have it put in the paper where it happened but they usually charge for that (however they do list all deaths under "death notices" whether you ask them to or not). I could be wrong about him not being dead, but there are alot of things about this story that do not add up......

I don't condemn her for not having life insurance, I don't have any.

But I do question her timing, asking for donations the day after her husbands death.

Left a bad taste in my mouth

Asia just added a new bulletin and now, I'm pretty sure she's full of shit. Read on here

correct me if I am wrong but asia is a member of mensa which is full of brains... so then she should be able to take her "whits" and get a "9-5" like 99% of the population.. no one donated to me when I wrecked my bike and was laid up.. no you know what they did.. said oh you owe us.. so you know what.. she can fend for herself.. shit happends I am very sorry for her loss.. the loss of a spouse is the hardest thing to overcome... but on another note.. her life has to go on.. sure we could all donate a few bucks but for what? for her to be asking in a few months again? hey I like asia and know her well but she is going to have to do what my mother did raising me by herself.. get a job...

If its a hoax its not her. Just dont buy that its a hoax. Time will tell I guess.

Don't twist things, I was pretty clear in my post about why this whole thread and many of the comments in it are distasteful and disrespectful.

I don't want to go over it again, but to summarize:
Some of the comments made and the mere fact someone felt it was so important to *not* help her by starting a thread, led to my comments.

thats not an excuse to tell others how to spend their money , you should be ashamed of yourself for posting such garbage... its fine if you dont want to donate and fine for you to not agree with what she is doing and i even agree with you on some of the points, but that doesnt give you the right to try and sabotage her efforts to better her childrens future. everyone is aware of life insurance..

Dont expect that she would give a dime for you.

when my grandfather died the obituary didn't print until 6 days after....

not getting life insurance is a gamble. when u have a family to support its just stupid.

if u lose a bet u dont go asking ppl to donate money to u. thats what they have done.

Nobodya sumed millions, but with a career like hers she and ehr mate made enough that insurcance could have been planned. Evena nest egg of some type. makes no sense to me.. but hey.

Ok, so i read that too now, WTF is all this shit, something is going on?? Someone hack her blog??

Man I don't know you , but you sure are a fucktard.

I will not be sending an industry woman help money. Are you fucking insane? She could go back and make some movies to support her family, and probably make more money than I do in a year by doing so. She has a HUGE fan base and I'm sure a come back would take care of her.

A woman has NO excuse to be broke. Ever. For a pretty woman or PORN STAR to be broke, that is just pathetic. If you are not smart enough to use your brain (and she is), use your pussy.

My heart goes out to her for losing a loved one, but that's all from me.

I agree with you. If she is indeed a MENSA member like she claims, she will be more than OK.

EVERYONE ON HERE IS SO FREAKING INSENSITIVE AND HAS A SERIOUS LACK OF COMPASSION! ASIA HAS A ONE YEAR OLD LITTLE GIRL AND IS EIGHT MONTHS PREGNANT WITH ANOTHER BABY DUE AUGUST 11TH (a little boy)...CLEARLY, MANY OF YOU ARE MEN WHO ARE POSTING AND HAVE NO CLUE AS TO WHAT IT IS LIKE TO BE 8 MONTHS PREGNANT (it is emotionally and physically exhausting)...not to mention, the energy and time it takes to take care of a one year old little girl!! None of us know WHY she did not have a life insurance policy....there are REASONS why you cannot get life insurance, and yes, perhaps it was foolish not to have a policy, but perhaps they were turned down for a certain reason...in any case, I think it is very HUMBLING of one to reach out to the general public and have to HUMILIATE herself to begging. Not only has she lost her husband, and is greiving and emotionally a wreck...she has to keep her head up for her kids and do whatever she can to survive, which, evidently, is asking people for donations. Granted, they have some money, but wasnt her husband just a personal trainer?!? Many of you claim she should have all this money from her Pornstar days...Well, this is not exactly the case perhaps. She was probably making $200k-$300k a year in the business but has been out of it for some time now, so whatever she was saving is perhaps all she has...I would bet money on it that it is not a fortune. Plus, she has her kids to consider now...and of course, planning for a future income on her own....its a lot to think about and you guys are so self-centered and un-empathetic it just makes me SICK....

Here are entries from her website bulletin board, (which, if you go to it, you wil see the cutest photos of her daughter, who is just precious). I read these and found them to be so SAD!! Life can just change in an instant!! :(


From Asia's Website:

06/12 - Trying to pull myself together and take care of business today, put Don's bank accounts on hold (his ATM and credit cards are impounded with the destroyed vehicle and I don't know who can get to them), talked to some of his business partners about trying to keep his business continuing without him somehow, and I made a down payment on a nice little used car with a new car seat for Catty so we can get around town and try to take care of things the best we can. I'm using the money in the paypal account to buy this car, so I thank each and every one of you who donated money from the bottom of my heart. Please, if you can spare it, I have no pride, I'm scared and I'm asking for your help - please donate a lot or a little to me, Catty, and my unborn son Devin, due August 11th, to my Paypal Account, use address [email protected] (that's asiaC, not just asia). I'm so scared that I won't be able to handle this newborn baby all by myself, along with Catty... I'm socially phobic, living alone in a state where I know nobody, afraid to leave the house by myself, without Don... every day is going to be such a huge struggle for the rest of my life. God this whole thing just breaks my heart, what happened to the perfect family I had a week ago? I was so in love, I woke up each day grateful to have such a good life, and in an instant... it's all gone. Don, I miss you, I need you, I don't know how I'm going to do this alone... *cry cry cry*



06/11 more - I asked Bud & friend to stop at the Clark County Coroner's office on the way here from LA as they pass through Vegas, to pick up Don's belongings and anything from the truck... they were told that the truck was strewn over 300 yards, wheels here, axle there... he rolled across so many lanes the truck was just disintegrated... there was an RN (registered nurse) in the car behind him, she tried to help Don, but there was nothing she could do. I can only hope it means he died quickly and maybe painlessly? It just breaks my heart to see Catty's smiling face now, knowing she has no daddy... I show her pictures of Daddy and say "who's that, Catty?" and she shouts "Dadn! Dadn!"... I'm going to have to do that with her every day so she never forgets her daddy. Oh please give me the strength to get through this, somehow... we had no life insurance, I have no car now, no job, no income, I'm pregnant, I have a one-year old baby... this is not how my life was supposed to go. What wouldn't I give to go two days back in time and just hold Don again and never ever let him go...



06/11 - ...and the fairy tale comes to an end. The police just left my house. Don was driving home from a business meeting in Las Vegas, and he got into an accident and rolled the Jeep. He's dead. He's never coming back to me. My husband, my soulmate, my other half, the one I was meant to grow old with. I'm almost 8 months pregnant with a son he will never get to see, and I have a one year old daughter who will never be able to remember anything about her father... and he was such a GOOD father to her, she was such a daddy's girl you wouldn't have believed it! Now she'll just have to take my word for it when I tell her how much daddy loved her, because she's too young to remember him for too much longer. Oh god, how that breaks my heart. How am I going to go on without him? How am I going to get a job at almost 8 months pregnant, with a one year old baby??? I couldn't go back to porn even if I wanted to, I'm much too huge. My ex-hubby, Bud Lee, is driving out here in the morning with another good friend of mine, and they are going to help me get through this. Somehow. If anyone wants to make a charitable donation to a pregnant widow who doesn't know how she's going to raise these two babies on her own, there's a spot on my sales page where you can donate up to $100. If anyone wants to send more than that (I'd be forever grateful!), you can use my Paypal Account, to address [email protected] (that's asiaC@, not just asia@). I trust that no one out there is heartless enough to misuse that email address at a time like this. Oh god how I wish I could wake up from this nightmare. My life went from being a dream come true to hell on earth in just an instant. Please keep me in your thoughts and send me strength! I've got to get through this for my two little babies, otherwise I swear I'd have nothing to live for anymore. But I have no choice, I will do the best I can for Catty and Devin, somehow, some way, I must...



05/07 - It's amazing how low-stress my life is now! It's a complete 180 from my life 3 years ago, and it's sooooo wonderful!! I never have to count down the days to any dreaded public appearances or show up late to work because I'm too afraid to leave the house. No more pulling all-nighters because I have to work all day AND all night to get things done. All I have to worry about now is keeping this little girl of mine happy, and it's such an EASY job!! And I LOVE it!! Of course I'm 6 1/2 months pregnant with baby boy Devin, but I still manage to stay pretty active, like taking Catty for bike rides to the playground every day! We also take Catty out to eat her favorite foods and we even let her play ball in the house! Yeah, all in all, I'd say this is one happy little girl, and I'm so excited that in just 3 months we get to add another baby to the mix! I may have been good at being a pornstar, but being a mommy is SO much more fun and rewarding!! Every day I look at this little girl and she just makes me glad to be alive! Being a mommy is the absolute BEST!! :o)



04/17 - Yay for Catty! She won TWO prizes in an online baby photo contest! She won 3rd place in two different categories - "Best Captured Moment", and "Best Seasonal Photo"! Yippee! Mommy's so proud of her "Little Miss Photogenic"! (I had to laugh at the photo that won 1st place for "Best Captured Moment" - can you imagine actually having to PAY for a picture like that?? LOL!!) Catty's winning pics HERE! (scroll down, she's bottom of first column and last column!) In other news, there is no news! This Friday I will officially be 6 months pregnant, and all's well! I guess when it comes to pregnancy, no news is good news until the baby arrives, huh!



04/02 - Hey, you guys wanna see the cutest pics ever? Ok, they're not THAT cute, but there's a certain nostalgic value to these pics... I asked my mom to send me a couple of baby pics so I could see what I looked like compared to Catty at the same age, and she actually sent me a whole bunch of my baby pics! Do you wanna see some?? Ok, don't laugh, here's baby Asia, back in 1974... pic 1, pic 2, pic 3, pic 4. Pretty funny, huh? And although Catty has my eyes and little button nose, she's much cuter than I was, because she's chubbier with longer hair and just a sweeter face all-around, I think! But of course every mommy thinks their baby is the cutest in the whole wide world, so I guess my opinion doesn't count for much, huh! LOL!!

OK, I MAY BE WRONG ABOUT ASIA!!

I just found this article online:

June 12, 2006
Asia Carrera's Husband Dead?
Asia Carrera recently updated her website with news that her husband had died in a car accident. Many online have expressed skepticism at the news, because her bulletin included a request for donations to be sent to her via Paypal.

There are several reasons to be skeptical:

1. No information regarding Don Lemmon's death can be found in the news media, nor can any mention of a roll over Jeep accident in Las Vegas be found.

2. Asia has never begged for money online before and, in fact, had frequently bragged of her financial wizardry on her site rather frequently on the past decade.

3. After the police notified her of her husband's death, why did she immediately run to her computer to post a notice about it and beg for money? Think about it. It is a rather odd response.

4. In her latest bulletin, she professes not to know how to get her deceased husband's credit cards or ATM information (i.e. pin number, etc), yet the information is readily available online:

The Coroner's Office is responsible for property that is either on the decedent or under the immediate control of the decedent. Property on the decedent may or may not be removed at the place of death at the discretion of the Coroner Investigator. Whenever property is removed from the decedent, each item is described and recorded on a property receipt with a witness co-signing the receipt. Property is then either released to the next of kin at the time of removal or secured at the Coroner's Office. Under most circumstances the property is available for release to the legal next of kin during normal office hours, 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM., Monday thru Friday, excluding holidays.


I will be looking into verifying Don Lemmon's death via Nevada Vital Records.

This is Asia Carrera's latest bulletin:
06/12 - Trying to pull myself together and take care of business today, put Don's bank accounts on hold (his ATM and credit cards are impounded with the destroyed vehicle and I don't know who can get to them), talked to some of his business partners about trying to keep his business continuing without him somehow, and I made a down payment on a nice little used car with a new car seat for Catty so we can get around town and try to take care of things the best we can. I'm using the money in the paypal account to buy this car, so I thank each and every one of you who donated money from the bottom of my heart. Please, if you can spare it, I have no pride, I'm scared and I'm asking for your help - please donate a lot or a little to me, Catty, and my unborn son Devin, due August 11th, to my Paypal Account, use address [email protected] (that's asiaC, not just asia). I'm so scared that I won't be able to handle this newborn baby all by myself, along with Catty... I'm socially phobic, living alone in a state where I know nobody, afraid to leave the house by myself, without Don... every day is going to be such a huge struggle for the rest of my life. God this whole thing just breaks my heart, what happened to the perfect family I had a week ago? I was so in love, I woke up each day grateful to have such a good life, and in an instant... it's all gone. Don, I miss you, I need you, I don't know how I'm going to do this alone... *cry cry cry*

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.

1. Why can't Don's business partners lend her a bit of money to keep going?
2. Paypal cannot be used on adult websites or for adult transactions. Asia not a newcomer to internet financial transactions and knows this. She has her own merchant account, in fact.
3. Why is she not on Don's bank account? She's his wife after all. Why can't she ask a neighbor for a ride to the bank, produce ID once there, and get some money?
4. Asia isn't stupid and has always made people aware of her Mensa membership (Mensa is a society of geniuses). I do not believe that someone with her alleged mental abilities could not find a better solution.

Finally, I'll just be very forthright and say it,"

I BELIEVE SHE IS LYING!!!!

the majority of you folks gotta get lives. you dont want to pay, fine, but why rip into a grieving widow? and thats assuming it was actually her asking for donations. ive only skimmed this thead and another similar but i havnt seen a link to her supposed post and I'd really like to see confirmations its actually her before i start following the sheep and talking shit. though im sure your opinions are very professional, anyone that can post more than 5, 10, and 20k times must be very practiced at discourse.
