I follow August Ames on twitter. I always felt that she had some emotional problems. She boasted about her chronic use of weed. She dropped a noticeable amount of weight in recent months, I didn't think she looked healthy. And it was confirmed by several peers/friends that she suffered from depression. Seems this latest incident of twitter trolls bashing her for being 'homophobic' pushed her over the edge causing her to take her own life. Only 23 years old and a superstar in the porn industry. To go out like that is so tragic. RIP

Her body, her choice, ok, I agree. But why did she feel the need to go on social media and say that gays, bis and crossovers are more at risk of HIV/STDs...? And back herself up by saying that she’s not the only actress to refuse shooting with gays, bis and crossovers, and that she doesn’t know what these actors do in their private life... Didn’t she know that there are many gay/bi men still in the closet? You just never know who you’re dealing with...

Of course her public comments were going to fire up on social media, offend a few and have people disagreeing out loud. I think she should have kept her thoughts and opinions to herself, and maybe try to contact that replacement girl privately to let her know about her worries. All she had to do is decline the role, which she did, but instead decided to also put her thoughts public.

It’s unfortunate she didn’t feel capable of fixing her wrong, and overcome this situation like a champ. Maybe she received some threats after this, maybe she was already fed up with other stuff. The whole situation escalated in less than 3days. Bullying is a real problem that can ruin lives for ever.

May she rest in peace.
Look, I don't care what she said or didn't say, I just wish she was still alive, 23 years old is too fucking young. Is it weird that I'm crying, I mean I never met her, just a couple of tweets of communication and jerked off to some of her movies, but I'm still crying.

I saw her at the Vanity Fan Expo a couple of years back. Absolutely gorgeous girl.

Reports are that she hanged herself. Sad

I saw the news as i woke up. I always go to twitter on my cell as i wake up as i follow lots of pornstars and escorts among other things and it usually bright up my day waking up looking as hot pics and stuff. But today was a very sad one... I was laughing at some star wars meme one sec and then the next one i see August Ames dead... :O I was shocked. Its digusting she was bullied this way. And altough she may had emotional problems before, these fuckers shouldn't had never say those horrible things.

Is it weird that I'm crying, I mean I never met her, just a couple of tweets of communication and jerked off to some of her movies, but I'm still crying.
Its not weird. When you see peoples in your screen for a while, you get to feel like you know them even if you don't. They become part of your life. Its the same as when Paul Walker died...

This is so very sad news. RIP August.

As for the cyber bullies that may have added to the depression, jus do the world a favour and go kill yourselves. Yep really!

Wow. Just wow. A person kills themself and same day this is the response someone thought is appropriate to post online. Blame the victim. Talk about heartless. But it's a GREAT example of exactly the kind of twitter bullying she endured so there's a lesson to be learned here.

I have no idea who August Ames was, or anything about her.

However it's interesting that the social media world would jump all over her for her refusal to make a porn movie with an actor who had done gay porn.

Anyone who knows the Occupational Health and Safety Act will know that any worker has the right to refuse to carry out work that they feel is unsafe at any time. It is entirely up to the worker, and there can be no repercussions taken against that worker.

This young woman was simply exercising her rights as a worker and ignorant people crucified her.

Shameful.

she lost several jobs because of this. porn stars like Alexis Texas say she does not perform with black talents on camera and she gets to keep her career. the left has no problem with racist discrimination in the adult industry because it is their body but you have no right to use the same rights to refuse to perform with gay porn actors due to lax testing protocols.
