Southern Cali-born adult actress Phoenix Marie recently spoke with VladTV about how she left a job selling Harley Davidsons to eventually become a successful porn star.

Marie, who says she used to routinely put in 80 hours a week doing finance for the motorcycle company, says she was approached about attending an AVN convention.

"I was so nervous. I wore my business outfit, because we went in the morning...and I didn't obviously want to tell friends and family 'oh yeah, we're going to a porn convention...'"

After recalling being told she should do porn and being handed business cards, Marie said she did her first scene about 10 months later.

"Voodoo was the male talent, he tore me -- vaginally," Marie said about her very first scene.
