another 2 I came up with:

Underrated - Sonny McKinley.
This girl is an absolute smokeshow, and I barely see her anywhere.
Her video for FirstClassPOV might be my fav video of 2023

Overrated - Peta Jensen
While Bridgette B. is the case of an awful pornstar who gets booked everywhere, Peta is the case of an okay pornstar who has a lot of hype behind her for some reason. She might be reddit's favorite pornstar, she gets mentioned in like every other post, I shit you not. And I don't get it.
Giant fake tits again. Shot almost exclusively for Brazzers, which is the porn equivalent of a generic pop music.

I'm definitely partisan on her BUT I think there are a couple of reasons which can explain her success and legacy (both far superior to her career, objectively speaking). I'll try and remain objective.

She was the epitome of what the average consumer of mainstream porn wants: young girl, cool tattoos, hot body, big boobs. Also had personality, she wasn't another vacuous girl who lies down, moans, gets cumshot, and leaves. She actively participated in the scene. She wrote the subject for her first anal scene (Anything He Desires, with Allie Haze, Levi Cash and Bill Bayley), and it was a good scene. The fact that the anal itself didn't turn out to be that good is another question — she did a way better job with her second anal btw.

And yes, people like giant boobs and tend to ignore if they are fake or not. Btw hers were two very good fake boobs, even if I agree that

.

She shot for Brazzers (not "almost exclusively", that's factually untrue: she worked almost exclusively for them at a certain point because they signed her under exclusive contract) and other mainstream companies (Digital Playground, Jules Jordan and BangBros) which guaranteed her a huge success. Her scenes are some of the most watched still today and during the lockdown Brazzers released a compilation of her scenes.

She worked almost exclusively (this time for real) with big names (Bill Bayley, Danny D, Johnny Sins, Keiran Lee, Mike Adriano) which definitely raised her popularity.

She never did DP or harder stuff (which is a limit of hers), but still any company she has worked with bet heavily on her. I mean, there must be reasons.

Also the fact that she suddenly disappeared (and I mean, she literally disappeared) paradoxically contributed to create her "legacy".

TL;DR she was hot and cool. She did less than she could have, but what she did was usually of high quality. Her fame is excessive, but there are good reasons why she could still be famous these days.

Alright I appreciate such a detailed response, even though it doesnt really convince me

Now that I'm thinking about it, it's just her resume that might be the biggest problem with me. If she shot more for the companies that I love and follow, then maybe I'd have loved her more.

Digital Playground is not really much different from Brazzers. It's all MindGeek stuff.
Jules Jordan would have been awesome, but she basically has one scene with Bill Bailey, and that's it.

I guess my gripe isnt really with Peta, but with the type of porn that she's associated with

Her biggest error (which was such only from our POV as customers, but not from hers, and I'll explain why) was to start with some pseudo-bondage/rough-ish stuff (her very first scenes + the doggy scene with Jordan Ash + the Jules Jordan orgy... I mean, Adriana Chechik, Aidra Fox and James Deen were in that scene) and then stick to mainstream stuff.

It may be considered an error from my POV as a customer, because even if she was into rough sex, and occasionally turned back to it (e.g. her PornFidelity scene and her last anal, probably her best scene), at the end of the day she had only created expectations which she didn't really end up living up to.

She was active in 2014-2017 and in those years, Kink were still producing great scenes. Isis Love was still working with them. Just saying.

But she had made clear since the beginning that she was planning to only work in the industry for 3-4 years top and then retire. Which she did. At least she was honest.

PS — I agree that her fame and legacy are surprising. As I said, way bigger than her career. What's even more astounding is that she's comparable to Lisa Ann or Amia Miley or Mia Khalifa in terms of internet fame... but she has completely disappeared since 2017. Lisa Ann is still a media personality, same for Mia Khalifa and Amia Miley who are basically models, now.

Roxy Rebel had potential. Her first scene was amazing. However, the other few scenes she recorded didn't have the same magic.

Brooke Milano, a beautiful mix of white and Asian, also sadly disappeared into the aether.

Belle Delphine is extremely overrated. I can't stand the over-the-top catering to weebs. Or any model that follows in her footsteps. Lacks authenticity and quality.

Dude yes. Jessica Ryan is incredible. Got such a good looking face is, a killer body, and breathe such a seductive and fun energy to her scenes, but this is also the first time I've seen anybody that's not me bring her up lol.

Also underrated:

Ivy Wolfe: beautifully slim build, cute face, great tush, and sucks like an absolute fiend.
Jasmine Wilde: cute face, great toned body overall, cute butt, a phenomenal chest that's huge for her frame but pretty perky, and can take a pretty solid face fucking.


Overrated:
Adriana chechik: I think she made a name for herself for intense energy during blowjob scenes and doing triple anal back when double anal wasn't even that common. I don't dislike her, but I really don't see anything special about her.

Abella Danger: I just don't get what people see in her. She's got a nice body but she doesn't really strike me as a great performer and her face is only okay.

Mia Khalifa: I honestly never unddrstood this. She's pretty hot but I have no idea how her name still shows up so often when the last time she made a new scene was how many years ago?

overrated: I feel like there's no point of listing my overrated ones cuz most of my opinions align with most already listed here. I will say real quick, I'm okay with Angela White but 3-peating as female POTY winner was overkill. Riley Reid and Mia Khalifa are the ones that make you pull your hair out "for the love of GOD I will never understand it how they got big..." like how sway?

Anyways, for the underrated ones. I listed a lot of ebony/black stars here because let's just be honest, they don't get the recognition they deserve at all and it's always been so frustrating to find ebony goddesses that get a lot of good work, recognition and popularity. I think it's gotten better over the last several years but could still be better. In general my overall list is focused on more recent years of the industry, some from the old days but not as many cuz I couldn't fit them all.

underrated:
Carmela Clutch (the GOAT imo)
Scarlit Scandal
Alexis Rodriguez AKA Miss Rican (miss her so much)
Avery Jane
Ashlyn Peaks
Scarlett Alexis (rising star who deserves so much more recognition imo)
Goldie Glock/Rush/Ortiz (the one underrated Latina I was obsessed with)
Diamond Banks
Cassidy Banks
Cecilia Lion
Serena Ali
Alina Ali
Adriana Maya
Willow Ryder
Jessica Ryan
Jada Stevens (in her prime)
Sheena Ryder
Alex Coal
Dharma Jones (I feel like for what she's accomplished so far, she should have way more scenes, very talented)
Crystal Chase
Layton Benton
Sasha Pearl
Alison Tyler
Alyx Star
Jeena Ivory
Jezebeth
Eve Marlowe
Aubree Valentine
Rahyndee James
Bella Rolland
Addie Andrews
Abby Cross
Ana Foxxx
Brianna Bourbon
Heather Vahn
Nicole Doshi
Penny Barber
Pepper XO
Luna Silver
Lola Bulgari
Lacy Lennon
