Stormy Daniels

Vogue speaks with porn star Stormy Daniels about her relationship with Donald Trump, the former president's indictment, and the pair's erstwhile sexual ...

“It was like, ‘She’s not a porn star,’ she’s a woman, say her name!” She throws up her hands, for emphasis. She wasn’t a household name, as she is now, and at the time, Daniels was keen to bridge the chasm between porn stardom and a mainstream career in entertainment – indeed, she remains so, with plans to write and direct a feature film – and Trump dangled just such an opportunity, teasing the possibility that she could appear on his hit series The Celebrity Apprentice. Trump answered the door in his pyjamas; she smacked him on the ass with a magazine, and told him to get dressed. He invited her to have dinner the night of the tournament – his wife, Melania, was at home with their then-infant son Barron – and Daniels arrived at his hotel room with the expectation that they’d be dining downstairs, in one of the resort’s restaurants. It’s also the oh-so-brief chapter of the Stormy Daniels/Donald Trump saga that Daniels has been mulling over since she did her first round of media appearances in 2018. But we don’t yet know the nature of the crime.” Daniels doesn’t know, either: she wasn’t called to testify before the grand jury, and the details of how and why her payment was arranged by former Trump attorney Michael Cohen are as murky to her as they are to the general public. “I mean he’d call me when I was in hair and make-up on shoots and I’d put him on speakerphone – lots of people heard him, lots of people knew,” she says. When she met Trump for the first time at a celebrity golf tournament in Nevada, she was arguably the most successful porn actress in the world – a status attested to by her multiple AVN awards, the adult film industry’s Stormy Daniels was already notorious when news of her liaison with Donald Trump hit the news in January 2018, right after his inauguration. “Meanwhile, he’s out there raising millions of dollars for his campaign on the back of this...” She perceives a double standard. “My name is in the news again, so my merch sales are up – it’s natural, but the way it gets talked about is, like, I’m doing a marketing campaign,” she points out with a sigh. “Gonna kill you, gonna kill your family, gonna set fire to your house...” lists off Blade, rolling his eyes as he hands his wife a chilled can of Coke.
