Petite, slender, golden-skinned, sometimes blonde, and occasionally bespectacled, adult performer Janice Griffith is kind of the adult industry’s racially ambiguous wet dream.

Kink.com labeled Griffith white; sites that feature Latinas have claimed her as one; and once a site sold her scenes with the tagline “Egyptian cutie with a little booty.”

“I’m Indo-Caribbean,” Griffith says. “My mom’s from Guyana, but my ethnicity is a gray area for anyone who doesn’t know me.” Just 20, Griffith will hit her two-year anniversary in the adult industry this fall. Since October 2013 when Griffith filmed her first sex scene with crossover film star James Deen, Griffith has shot more than 100 porn scenes and a few features, and she has amassed more than 150,000 followers on Twitter and 70,000 on her Instagram account.

Porn sites are quick to paste whatever label on Griffith they find marketable. “I’m Latina, Dominican, half-black, half-Chinese—it depends on what website you look at,” she says. It’s a common practice in the industry, as The Daily Beast’s Aurora Snow reported in a recent piece on inter-racial porn. But while some adult performers don’t chafe under their racial categories, Griffith does. “I’ve been very outspoken against it,” Griffith says about websites assigning racial categories to her. “My fans will joke, ‘She’s not Latina, guys.’ I don’t support the fetishization of ethnicities.”

Mahadeo Shivraj is talented in his own right. He made tremendous contributions to Guyana with his films and talent. I applaud him.

If we have people in the sex industry who can work their bottom to get to the top, I have no problem with that.

Is that how Mahadeo Shivraj got to the top? I didn't know he was in the sex industry.
