I do have sympathy for all av idols being lumped into one, but man do they not do much to break down those bad reputations. The content outside of their film work, like interviews or shows, seem to further paint them as horny shallow people. I understand they could be exaggerating their personality but that's the whole point. Anytime I see them is when they're not being down to earth or getting into a scandal. Not to mention so many are hypocritical about their view of their work. So many have said that they wouldn't date a guy in the industry, or that they get rather jealous when their men just FLIRT with someone else even though they have sex with other men and go on shows to flirt with internet personalities. If you're going into the most self indulgent career one could imagine, I think there's some level of responsibility one has IF THEY CARE about others opinions. I think June Lovejoy is a great example. It be great if they could just do their work and not mind the rest, but actresses seem to play into their nympho characters and then get depressed people see them that way. It's part of the reason I tended to focus more on actual films, story and kinks rather than invest on particular actresses.

JAV Sales Report - May 2025Yeah sad they haven't responded yet but I was wondering the same thing too. I think for years I kept seeing Ichika Matsumoto at the top of a lot of list, and always ranked first in digital sales. She seems like the most popular actress yet didn't get much recognition from most blogs I read. But I also see she has nowhere near the followers that other actresses have. So I wonder if it's purely overall sales from all movies done since Ichika at one point was putting out so much content. I also wonder what name truly is the most well known in Japan.
