It is sad to read her bulletins; but there definitely are signs of a strong codependency and lack of confidence. Hopefully she sees a psychiatrist or therapist and works through this and not just depend on handouts from a faceless internet community.

It is indeed very sad to see someone's life apparently 'finally' going soooo well, only to be abruptly shattered by the sudden death of a 'soulmate'. :(

So I decided to help her out the same way I would anyone else here who's going thru very tough times and needs to feel better, I signed her email up to every porn site mailing list I could find.

(j/k! :p)

As for her financial situation, i doubt she's in as bad shape as she thinks... not saying she's lying, she's just not thinking clearly. Her husband just died this week, and she's always had self-confidence issues. Her husband must have had insurance, even if it was auto insurance.

NO! You don't say! Porn chix with confidence problems?

This quote is even funnier considering your SN:laugh:

She will just do her normal thing and start working the geeks. She garnered her first bit of geek fame when she pretended to be a hardcore UT gamer which is of course a joke as any noob owns her repeatedly... people gullible enough to buy that never saw her play.

No doubt that the [ H ] ard-drunk Kyle will rally his moronic minions and tell them to send this washed-up old porn skank some of their paypal. And what is really sad is that they will listen. :laugh:

I ain't buying any of this nonsense for a second. Asia Carrera must be from Nigeria. :roll:

I don't know her situation, but she just had an incredible lose. I would not want to be in her position trying to pickup the pieces while supporting her family. Cut her some slack!

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 asiac@asiacarrera.com (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...

that really sucks.

Be careful clicking around a site called asiacarrera.com. And don't go to the bio page.

It's linked directly from the page linked in the OP, it is definitely her.

Mensa is one gigantic intellectual circle jerk. IMO membership reflects more (negatively) on their person than it does (positively) on their intelligence.

And yes she did always play up the geek crowd, while I certainly am sorry she lost her husband I have little pity for her financial situation.

Posted on HardOCP, posted pictures of herself wearing little to nothing working on PC's, her website, signed stuff for HardOCP.

It's been a few years but for a while there every time you turned around it was Asia something or other on the front page of HardOCP.

its not like they were flattering pics. she was in them without makeup and stuff. working the geeks? not working very hard really. no, working the geeks is like morgan web showing up in all the lad mags all glammed up.

Why is it at least 50% of the people I read about with a high IQ seem to be functionally retarded when it comes to day to day life?

Oh its not that bad though. For all the regular hollywood actresses, there's probably a hundred or a thousand that didn't make it and make no money at all...then they either go home broke or join the profession where a pretty face and body are the only requirement. (Or a not so pretty face and body, coupled with the willingness to do the really freaky stuff).

The women can make pretty good money...the trouble is a lot of them are idiots and either stick it up their nose to blow it the second they get it in other ways. But lets face it, there's plenty of pretty girls out there...and the same ones that think that just because they're pretty means they'll make it acting...and then end up doing porn, are usually the same ones that are stupid with money.
