“I grabbed my chest and I didn’t want to let go, because I felt like if I did let go, blood was going to be everywhere.”
“It caught me so off guard and I had no idea it was coming,” the 25-year-old told the Daily Star of the accident, which took place during a May playoff featuring her favourite team, the Washington Cardinals."
Porn star Mia Khalifa’s breast disfigured & deflated after being hit by hiho speed ho
Mia Khalifa, who now plies her trade as a correspondent for sport podcast Sportsball, “was watching an ice hockey match when the six-ounce disk smashed into her chest at around 130km/h [80mph],” News.com.au reports.
“It caught me so off guard and I had no idea it was coming,” the 25-year-old told the Daily Star of the accident, which took place during a May playoff featuring her favourite team, the Washington Cardinals.
“I grabbed my chest and I didn’t want to let go, because I felt like if I did let go, blood was going to be everywhere.”
Later that night, she posted an image of herself at the game to Instagram, telling fans she was “80%” sure that her implant had been ruptured.
Khalifa, a Lebanese-American who was raised as a Catholic, shot to fame in late 2014 when she performed in an X-rated scene dressed in a Muslim hijab. The taboo-breaking footage helped propel her to the most-searched actress on adult website Pornhub, but she also received death threats from offended Muslims.
Three months later she abandoned the porn industry, saying she wanted a more “normal” career.
After working as a bookkeeper and a paralegal, she has recently sought to reinvent herself as a sport reporter - and she says her unfortunate up-close encounter with a puck has not dented her passion for hockey.
“I got to take it home,” she said. “It was the single greatest souvenir any hockey fan can get: a game-used puck that comes at you and hits you.”
Asked if the collision was the most painful incident she had ever encountered, Khalifa proved herself a sports journalist to the core. "I've seen my team lose before,” she said. “That's a lot more painful.”
