TO R I M O N TA N A X X X
TORI MONTANA
It was three days after her 18th birthday that Tori Montana walked
into a strip club for the first time, and she was there as a dancer, not
as a curious, barely-legal teen.
“I was terrified,” she says. “I could hardly walk on my high heels, I
didn’t know how to dance, I was very socially awkward, and I left at
the end of the night with 50 bucks.”
So she donated her heels to the Salvation Army and left dancing
forever?
“No,” says Montana, a native of Orange County, Calif., who is now
20, “I came back the next night and did better. I was so scared but
I wasn’t going to let that stop me.”
That club was the Booby Trap in Pompano Beach, Fla.
Montana thinks very fondly of the Booby Trap, which she describes
as “a big, happy, dysfunctional family” and credits the work ethic and
the hustle she learned there with her success in porn.
Another dancer at the Booby Trap introduced her to Hussie Models
in Miami, and shortly after signing up with that agency, she found
herself on her first porn set, for the site ShotHerFirst.
For Montana, moving from stripping to porn wasn’t a big deal. It
was more like a natural progression.
“I thought that if I were going to be part of this industry, I should be
all the way in,” she says.
