Work, Not Myth

The visit of Spanish porn actress Selva Lapiedra to Ljubljana was an opportunity to reflect on how the European porn industry is professionalizing and how its actors themselves understand their work. The actress, extremely popular among Slovenian viewers, returned to the capital as a special guest of the Hard Core Club nightclub, where a 'greet & meet' was held – a meeting with fans without physical contact, within clearly defined and respectful frameworks.

In a conversation that took place at her workplace, Lapiedra emphasizes the difference between pornography and prostitution and clearly defines the rules of her profession: professional standards, a ban on drugs and alcohol, testing, and respect for personal boundaries. 'This is a normal job,' she says – with an emphasis on the responsibility and seriousness it requires.

Her rapid rise in the industry is also confirmed by award nominations and collaborations with established productions across Europe. Workdays are long, the pace intense, but it is precisely this – in her words – that separates the myth of 'easy money' from the reality of the profession.

Between Production and Platforms

The actress compares working on professional shoots with a production team (direction, makeup, safety protocols) with creating content for subscription platforms. These are different formats that require different approaches, but they share the principle of safety, consent, and clear rules. Such a distinction helps to understand why more and more creators are building a multi-channel career while maintaining control over their working conditions.

Organization and Context of the Visit

Selva Lapiedra's visit to Ljubljana was organized in collaboration with Dobra Družba. As Žiga Sedevčič explains, such events are organized meetings that respect the boundaries and dignity of all involved. This approach is part of a broader effort for professionalization and transparency in the industry.

Media Image and Reality

The article shows that a discussion about pornography can take place without sensationalism: as a conversation about work, conditions, safety, and culture. Lapiedra also highlights her experience working in different European countries, which reveals differences in production practices and the acceptance of the industry – and at the same time, the universality of professional standards.
