When we think of porn stars, the last place we imagine them living is on the streets.
But this is exactly what's happened to Stephanie Sadorra, 40, better known as Jenni Lee, who once had a glittering career in the adult entertainment industry.
Peaking at the age of just 21, but the time she was in her late 30s, she was homeless and living as one of the 'mole people' in a tunnel without heat or water below the Las Vegas strip.

News of the porn star's fate was discovered by a Dutch TV crew who were filming in the tunnels when they came across the familiar face.
But despite her life seemingly taking a turn for the worst, Sadorra said she's happy with her lot.
Sadorra said: "I used to be so hot. But I'm happy, I've got everything I need.
"It's not as difficult as you might think, everybody is really respectful. Everybody's good to each other, which I don’t think you find much [above ground]. People are more accepting here."
Jenni Lee's last adult film was in 2016, but even though she's now retired from the industry, her videos still frequently make fan favourite lists.

When asked if she thought she could get out of the tunnels, she said: "Yes, but why?"
This prompted the interviewer to say: "Do you like it here?"
"I do," she admitted. "Sure, there's no water. I like that those hardships build comradery. I feel like you end up making more genuine friends."
She explained that she's able to stay positive in her situation because 'humans are amazingly adaptable creatures.'

"You get used to whatever is put on your plate, y'know?" she said.
The former porn star, who admitted that she was a little 'too successful' in the industry, added that time got her used to her situation.
The interview was filmed when the former adult actress was 36 and she is now 40 - although no update on her situation has been provided since then.
As reported by the Sun, her popularity as an adult actress has not waned over the years and she is still a top-ranking star on PornHub with more than 135 million views.

As you can imagine, Jenni's fans were shocked when news of her current situation became known and a GoFundMe was set up in a bid to help her.
Jenni first became a porn star when she was just 19, and ultimately left the industry to pursue a career as a model, according to her IMDb page.
