We found out over the weekend that Lawrence Fishburne’s daughter Montana has decided to make the transition from “famous person’s child who shouldn’t have to worry about anything” to “porn star”. Since the story has blown up, Montana has spoken to her father (who reportedly tried to buy every copy of his daughter’s DVDs for one million dollars to keep them out of the public’s hands) and things are about as broken as you’d expect them to be over there.
Montana reported the details of the conversation with her father to TMZ (classy) and according to her, he said, “I’m not going to speak with you ’till you turn your life around,” and followed that by saying she was an embarrassment.
Lawrence also called out Montana for using their family name to promote herself saying, “You used your last name. No one uses their real name in porn.”
Damn. Well, that’s a real good point right there, Lawrence.
You guys, I gotta say it. I think this chick’s on drugs. Is that really obvious? Did we all already know that? Am I the last one to that party? I mean, this is purely speculation on my part, but I would assume that this kind of unnecessary (in every sense of the word) behavior is a product of mixing drugs and a mental illness.
I spoke with a friend who is familiar with Montana last night (they grew up in overlapping social circles), and according to this friend, a sex tape is actually a step up. It was reported this week by some sites that Montana has a history of hooking, but I’m hearing that it might not all be in the past. As in, allegedly she was working the corner as recently as last week. That doesn’t seem like acting out against her rich dad to me or looking for love in all the wrong places or whatever. It sounds like the girl might have a serious problem and her dad needs to throw her ass in rehab while she’s still 19 and young enough to bounce back.
Disowning who appears to be his desperate, possibly drug-addicted, sex worker daughter until she turns her life around means that the two of them are probably never talking again.
Pretty sad tale all around. I’m not a big advocate of Hollywood nepotism, but it sure would’ve been to both the father’s and daughter’s benefit if Pops could have had a hand in getting her into the biz. She’s definitely pretty enough to be an actress. However, maybe she’s also about as emotionally and mentally off-base as celebrity kids often come. I hate to say it, but if she’s workin’ the streets, and her father has given up on her, this story probably won’t have the happiest of endings.
What can he do? It might as well come sooner than later for her to see that she is the only one responsible for fucking up her life – or turning it around. At the end of the day, these are her actions. I don’t blame him, she is a disgrace. Him telling her that, as a result of her choices, is not as bad as what the johns tell her I’m sure!
Are those stretch marks on her breasts?
that’s too bad. This is when she needs her dad the most. He was probably away making films when she was growing up. He does have a point tho. she should have gone with a moniker like Eboni or just Montana
