In 2019, speaking with BBC Hard Talk, Mia shared, “After the interview came out, people started reaching out. All of my emails – my manager checks them. When he gets stuff like that, he filters them and sends them to me. And reading the words of some of these girls, who have been s*x-trafficked and forced into porn, and all of these stories of girls whose lives have been ruined by it and by men, who have taken advantage of them, and by contracts that they didn’t even understand the jargon of, it makes me feel like, okay, maybe it was good that I started talking.”

The ex-adult film actress also shared how she felt after leaving the p*rn world. She added, “I think post-traumatic stress kicks in mostly when I go in public. Because of the stares I get, I feel like people can see through my clothes. And it brings me deep shame. It makes me feel like I lost all rights to my privacy, which I did because I am just one Google search away.” ALSO READ | ‘Mia Khalifa As Education Advisor’: Hackers Make Unusual Demands As They Compromise Egypt's Education Directorate's Facebook Page
