“I’m a huge nerd and YouTube gave me that platform to show everyone my weirdness.”
She started doing hardcore couples shows on Chaturbate with a guy she met at college in November 2017, when she was 21. By spring 2018 she had begun going solo on cam on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for two to three hours at a time.
“I would do a lot of private rooms,” Violet says. “That was kind of how I made my money. I would use the #collegegirl hashtag a lot. I was a college girl and a lot of those people were drawn to my room. My first month I gained 5,000 followers [on Chaturbate]. I used to do squirting shows. My interaction was the same way I am now but with just a smaller fan-base.”
Her cam username was VioletViolence.
“I have an obsession with horror movies,” Myers says, adding that she has been calling herself
Violet ever since high school because “I don’t really like my legal name.”
“I was always on social media—Twitter and Tumblr—and I would go under Violet,” she continues. “I chose Myers [for adult] because of Michael Myers—from Halloween, not Austin
Powers.”
During Myers’ early days as a solo cam model she broadcasted from her mom’s house. “My mom knew,” Violet says. “When I had a little ring light on, she knew to just give me my
time and my space. My mom is really funny, she bought me my first dildo. She took me to a sex store and bought me a purple little vibrating dildo. I have a different mother... We have a different mother-daughter bond... She has a very sexual humor kind of personality, so that’s probably where I get it from.”
Myers did not hold back when it came to expressing what she wanted before she got into mainstream porn. As a full-time student, her only source of income came from web-camming. “I wanted to grow a bigger fanbase,” Violet recalls. “I found out about porn just doing research
about how I can grow my fanbase. I tweeted a bunch of times that I wanted to be a porn star and I got recruited through my first agent.”
Enter Brian Berke, the 21-plus-year industry veteran who founded AMA Modeling in 2004 in South Florida and later co-founded 101 Modeling in LA.
“I had a male talent that lived with me named Brad Hart—and Brad and Violet somehow got in touch with each other,” Berke tells AVN.
Myers wanted to vet Berke and his operation before making a decision—so she got him on a call along with her mom.
“She had such a really cool personality and her mom was very cool,” Berke recalls.
