This afternoon I had a chance to talk to multi-award winning adult film actress Kayden Kross. We joked about winning porn industry awards, being recognized in public, but had to get serious for a few minutes too.

Earlier this week, actor Charlie Sheen announced that he was HIV positive. An announcement that became national news before it even happened. The story sparked other discussions, and outrage from all sides. From people becoming upset over mockery of Sheen's diagnosis, to those becoming upset that Sheen lied to those he was intimate with about his health.

It has been very well publicized that Charlie Sheen had multiple relationships with adult film actresses for many years. Many of the actresses that he had relationships with have spoken out about the announcement, while some who have had no public involvement with Sheen came out to criticize his reckless behavior.

Since Kayden was willing to talk to us, we took the opportunity to ask someone from inside the adult industry what kind of impact an announcement like this has on the people involved, even if only involved by profession.
