Steven Spielberg’s Daughter Explains Why She’s Embarking on Adult Entertainment Career
Written by SOURCE on February 19, 2020
Mikaela Spielberg wants to continue the filmmaking legacy created by her father. But instead of directing and producing blockbuster hits, Mikaela is interested in created self-produced porn videos.
During a conversation with The Sun that was published on Wednesday, the young Spielberg says that she submitted an application to be a sex worker in Nashville, Tennessee. At 23-years-old, Spielberg has already battled mental health issues and alcoholism, and has come to realize that she’s a “sexual creature” and that creating solo porn videos makes her feel satisfied.
“I got really tired of not being able to capitalize on my body and frankly, I got really tired of being told to hate my body,” she explained. “And I also just got tired of working day to day in a way that wasn’t satisfying to my soul. I feel like doing this kind of work, I’m able to ‘satisfy’ other people, but that feels good because it’s not in a way that makes me feel violated.”
When Mikaela revealed her new career path to her father—who adopted her in 1996—and his wife, Kate Capshaw, the couple was reportedly “intrigued” by the decision, not upset. Mikaela says she wantes her sex work to be “consensual” and “safe,” and sees it as a way to become financially free. She also posted an Instagram in which she thanked her supporters and discussed payment options.
“I can’t stay dependent on my parents or even the state for that matter—not that there’s anything wrong with that—it just doesn’t feel comfortable for me,” she said.
Along with her parents, Spielberg’s 47-year-old finance, Chuck Pankow, supports her decision. Mikaela says that she won’t engage in on-camera work with another person. She’s also interested in creating “fetish” videos, making clips that show off her breasts, which she calls her “moneymakers,” and possibly stripping. Mikaela produces these films under the name “Sugar Star.” She had clips on PornHub, but she had them removed until her sex worker license is approved by the State of Tennessee.
