Lana Rhoades' Mission to Rewrite Her Story

Lana Rhoades, the former adult film sensation, is making headlines with a heartfelt plea to content distributors: erase over 400 of her videos from the internet. This request has reignited a global conversation about performers' rights and the long-lasting imprint of digital media.

Having retired from the industry years ago, Rhoades is driven by a deep desire to protect her young son from her past. In a candid online statement, she shared, "I was 19, broke, and groomed," expressing her wish for all traces of her former work to disappear so her child never has to encounter it.

“Deleting these videos isn't just about me—it's about protecting my son from a legacy I never wanted for him,” Rhoades emphasized.

This move puts a spotlight on the challenges faced by young performers seeking to reclaim control over their image after leaving the adult film industry.

NBA Paternity Drama Unfolds

Rhoades' appeal also shines a light on ongoing speculation about the father of her child, rumored to be linked to the NBA. On her podcast, 3 Girls, 1 Kitchen, Rhoades shared insights into the rocky circumstances surrounding her pregnancy, revealing that the child's father, an unnamed NBA player, reacted harshly upon learning about the baby.

Intrigue deepens with Rhoades hinting that the player was a Libra on the Brooklyn Nets during her pregnancy. This led to rampant online sleuthing, with some pointing fingers at Blake Griffin, noted for a striking resemblance to Rhoades' son, though these claims remain unverified.

Another name in the rumor mill is Bruce Brown, a former Nets player, partly due to Rhoades' interactions with him on social media. Despite these theories, the identity of Rhoades' child's father remains a tantalizing mystery, keeping observers guessing across both entertainment and sports realms.
