Former Footballer Who Became an Adult Star Admits the Job Is Not As Fun as He Expected

• According to the ex-footballer turned adult entertainer, he regrets ditching his football career for the adult industry

Damian Oliver has opened up on how working in the adult industry is not as pleasing and exciting as it appears.

The former Crystal Palace academy player, who now works in the adult industry after prematurely ending his football career, regrets becoming an adult entertainer.

Once a budding footballer, a stint in prison led Damian to fall out of love with the sport.

In search of some extra cash, while painting and decorating, he turned to p*rn - pocketing £150 from his first job, reports the Sun.

Talking about how the reality wasn't quite the same as what he imagined, he explained: "People used to say to me, 'you're doing it all anyway', because they knew I used to sleep with girls, I was a player, and they said, 'you might as well get paid for it," he recalled as quoted by SportBIBLE.

"But it wasn't until I had the confidence to actually do it, [that I realised] it was a whole different ball game."

"When I was at Crystal Palace, if I'd have stayed with them, then I could have been earning a lot more playing football. I used to fight as well, maybe that could have gone somewhere.

"I was good at both of those things, but being a p*rn star, I thought that would be just as good.
