Adult film Hall of Famer Lisa Ann has opened up about her most traumatising request that made her storm off set.
The retired porn star, 52, gained popularity in 2008 for satirising Republican politician Sarah Palin in Who's Nailin' Paylin?.
However, she's been in and around the industry since the 90s and temporarily quit porn in 1997 due to an AIDS scare in the industry.
Lisa resumed her career in 2006 and went on to earn the Hall of Fame moniker from the likes of AVN, XRCO, and Urban X.
The 52-year-old, from Pennsylvania, US, is largely considered as one of the most popular adult film stars ever, despite her decision to retire a few years ago.

Now, the industry hasn't really had the best reputation over the years and Lisa previously told LADbible that there is a darker side to what you see on-screen.
She revealed how fans used to offer her money for sex.
Lisa said: "It is so annoying. It shows me how confused people are, that they've built this one way relationship with me they feel entitled to my time.
"I've realised that the accessibility to the free content and the hours some of these guys watch just confuses them."

The adult star also said she often had to walk 'out on a lot of porn sets' when directors' requests would interfere with her religious beliefs.
"I've still walked out more dates than I blocked out on porn sets. But I walked out on a lot of porn sets. A lot," Lisa admitted.
"I remember a director asked me to do something with a cross and I wouldn't have the conversation with him, I just packed my stuff.
"And I remember being out in the parking lot, and he's, like, 'You're leaving?'
"I'm like, 'Yeah, the fact that you would disrespect a religion means I just can't share my brand with you. I can't work with you.

"To me, that was so extreme, it traumatised me so much that anybody would even bring that in."
When looking at the industry as a whole, Lisa believes that action should be taken to prevent younger people from accessing explicit adult content.
She said: "In the 90s, there was no way to see porn if you were under 18. Kids are starting to watch porn at 10 years old, so by 18 they're addicted - they don't know they are but they are.
"At the age of 10, they don't wrap their head around the fact that we're stunt people, sexual stunt people, we get paid to do this but it doesn't mean we want to do it with you.

"And they're seeing so much content that they don't understand why you wouldn't want to do it with them. So we're allowing the access for free, we're allowing it for under 18 and confusing the mind of many."
