Ex-porn star Mia Khalifa ‘didn’t make money off infamous hijab adult film scene that sparked ISIS threats for years’
FORMER porn star Mia Khalifa says she "didn't make any money" off the infamous hijab sex scene that prompted ISIS to send her terrifying death threats.
The 28-year-old has opened up about her brief but turbulent career in the adult entertainment industry, which she exited after just three months in 2015 because of the threats from the terrorist caliphate.
Though she rarely talks about the infamous clip, Khalifia, who was 21 at the time, previously revealed that the was told to wear the religious garment by the producers of the film and she "didn't realize she could say no".
Within weeks of its release, Khalifa was inundated with messages of abuse online from members of the Islamic State.
Earlier this year, Khalifa revealed her time in the porn industry will haunt her until she dies.
On starting her OnlyFans account, she said at the time: "I am finally growing into my self-confidence in who I am and the decisions I make for me.
"This is my way of being myself outside the perimeters of conventional social media.
