“I think we’re on the up and making great progress.”
“We were making so much progress and then, you know, some things happen culturally and it ends up creating a little bit of a pushback. But those are growing pains—you know, it hurts to grow.
“So, I think we’re on the up and making great progress. We’re not done yet. It’s so affirming to see people like TEA Awards reaching out and really trying to hear and represent the trans community.”
Demure is definitely ready to capitalize on all of it, and said, “I think it’s a unique opportunity because what’s funny is that the numbers don’t lie—the content sells.”
“What’s important is everyone making money and it’s not up for debate as to who is looking at what, where—it’s being looked at and the numbers are there to support it,” she adds.
Recent projects include Trans Campers, the latest production by AVN Hall of Famer Jim Powers.
“I love working with Jim Powers because he gets that porn can be quick bang-bang- boom-boom or it can be so nuanced and artistic,” Ariel says.
Bubbly yet wise, with an witty sense of humor, Demure becomes a sultry brunette and totally serves up mythological Medusa vibes in her new series for OnlyFans, titled “Gorgons & Goddesses.”
“Jade Venus and Tori Easton are my good gal pals, so, we are the Gorgon Sisters,” Demure describes. “We try and work together as much as we can. It’s just nice having allies on your side, it’s wonderful to be challenged, and to go into work and not know what’s gonna happen. It is nice having people in your corner from the beginning, so, we try and work together as much as we can.”
