Laurence Fishburne's daughter Montana was 19 when she made a porn film. She said she was paid $25,000. Her father's friends offered $1 million to make it disappear.
They were too late. The DVDs had shipped, and the title on the cover carried his last name: "Montana Fishburne."
In the video below, she sits down with HLN. The host asks if she realizes that putting her last name on the cover reflects on her dad, Morpheus in The Matrix.
"It's my name also, and we are two separate people."
Vivid's Steve Hirsch told TMZ the first shipment sold out across the country, more than 25,000 copies, and that Vivid was offering her a multi-picture deal.
She grew up with "the best of the best: private schools, traveling all over the world," she told The Hollywood Reporter. By then she had moved out of her father's multimillion-dollar Hollywood Hills home.
The host calls Hollywood "one of the most nepotistic places on earth" and asks why not go that route.
"I've thought about it, but my passion is with this porn."
Her model was Kim Kardashian, whose tape Vivid also released. "Kim, she's beautiful, she has the world at her feet, and I hope to too."
Reports said Montana made upwards of $250,000. She wouldn't confirm it: "I made some money. It's keeping me in the place I live."
On HLN she says she hasn't heard from her father. "I'm not going to let hurting his feelings stop me from living my dream." Later she told The Hollywood Reporter he said he was embarrassed by her.
The case for Montana: she was an adult, and as she told VIBE, "there are hundreds of women in porn and they all have fathers." The case against: Vivid sold it under his last name.
Was Montana Fishburne cashing in on her own name, or on her father's?
