E-Girl Celestia Vega Finally Posts Porn Debut

CYBERSPACE—Social media personality and “e-girl” Celestia Vega finally gave her fans the Christmas gift she had promised more than a month earlier when she posted her first porn video on December 25—but not without a controversy that left her followers, who number nearly 450,000 on her Twitter account alone, feeling let down. “E-girls” are young women on social media whose followings come largely from the online video gaming community. In fact, the disappointment among fans of the 19-year-old from the Los Angeles suburb of Glendale, California, was so acute that Vega’s porn controversy was written up in the online pages of Newsweek magazine on Christmas Day. The controversy was not over the fact that the Instagram star had actually made a porn video, but that the free porn mega-site Pornhub would not post it. For reasons that have yet to be explained, Vega’s video was quickly flagged on the site and taken down. Pornhub videos may be “flagged” by users for allegedly containing inappropriate content, such as graphic violence, or if they appear to be illegal—which could mean that the participants in the video did not authorize its upload, or that it contains underage performers. Neither, however, was the case with the Celestia Vega video. The e-girl herself had enthusiastically promoted the then-upcoming clip on her Twitter feed regularly since November 14, when she initially announced her porn debut. She even posted a behind-the-scenes “making of” video on her YouTube account. And at least according to her online biography, Vega was born on August 12, 1998, making her of legal age to take part in porn. But after a back-and-forth with Pornhub administrators, Vega finally got her much-hyped porn video publicly posted on the site.  The appearance of the video may have ended one controversy, but it started another—as the video itself failed to live up to the expectations that many of Vega’s followers, at least those who responded on her Twitter feed, had set for the e-girl’s first-ever explicit sex video. “I don't know what was more disappointing, this video or my Christmas presents,” wrote one Twitter follower. “It was so cringy,” another remarked. “The camera angles were amateurish, she knew what angles would be decent,” one critic declared, while yet another was more dsiappointed in Vega’s scene partner than in the social media star herself. “The male talent was the real problem not her. However neither seemed to actually be into it and I can't blame her when he kept going soft and faked an orgasm to end it,” the Twitter commenter wrote.
