Once again we take an exclusive look in the secret Diary Of A Porn Star to reveal what anonymous porn starlet xxxShopGirl thinks about her career in adult movies. This month she's taking a light-hearted look at one of the staples of the porn world - those unforgettable porn shoes.

I remember the first time I laid eyes on porn shoes. Stripper heels, platforms, spike heels, glass heels - call em what you like, I called them tranny shoes. The only person I'd ever seen wear them was Ru Paul so I thought they were some part of a trannies wardrobe get up.

I’d never seen them in porn flicks before. Probably due to the fact I had only watched dated porn. Porn shoes were yet to be invented. I remember seeing lots of different styles for sale in a street market in Bangkok on a trip to Thailand once and this just reaffirmed for me that trannies (and lady boys) wore them. I actually wanted to buy a pair. Something was drawing me to them. I stopped myself saying “What the heck for? Where would I wear them?” I wasn’t a porn star then.

I later realised strippers and adult models wore them when I saw every single girl in a copy of my house mates Playboy wearing them. I thought they looked sexy but kinda mad. Sort of like Barbie meets glam rock.

Now I have more pairs of porn shoes than I do normal heels. I have classic ones (if there is such a thing), silver ones, marabou ones, leg tie ones and even boots too. I have every colour possible. It has been known for me to turn up on set with one case for my clothes and another for my shoes. I pack a pair of shoes for each outfit I take. In fact I pick an outfit to go with the shoes usually.

I still have my first pair that I remember going out to buy after my first few shoots in some trash shop on Oxford Street. I wanted porn shoes like all the other girls so I got some classic strappy, black, clear plastic platform/heel ones. They look a bit tatty now but they have been through everything with me so I daren’t replace them.

People say “How the hell do you totter around in those things?” and then I explain how they are actually dancers shoes (table and pole dancers that is) and that walking and standing around in them is a doddle compared to what those girls do in them.

It’s strange though, I can’t wear normal high heels for very long without suffering but these beauties I can wear for hours quite comfortably. Why is that? I once wore them out to a night club and didn’t moan once about my feet aching. I even hobbled down a cobbled street in them without falling over.

Note: it is NEVER acceptable to wear porn shoes except in porn. I was going out on a limb when I wore mine out and was with a bunch of 10 or so other models. Do not think, like the poor girl I saw wearing them in Wimbledon shopping centre one Saturday afternoon, that they are for normal people. JUST DONT!
