World-famous porn star Jenni Lee found living homeless in Las Vegas tunnels

A world famous porn start has found happiness living in a network of tunnels beneath Las Vegas.

Not too many years ago Jenni Lee was one of the most recognisable actresses involved in the adult industry.

The Tennessee woman found a big audience appearing in high profile films and magazines including Hustler and Penthouse before retiring to focus on fashion modelling in 2009.

While 45,000 people still subscribe to her work on just one website alone - suggesting Lee's star has not waned in the past decade - her living situation has changed dramatically.

The 39-year-old was found living in a 200-mile long labyrinth beneath the casino capital of the world by a TV crew making a documentary about the tunnels.

Jenni, real name Stephanie Sadorra, was stumbled upon occupying a small area of the man-made caves, using just a torch to light her living space.

When asked whether she found success as a pornstar, she said she was "a little too successful".

“I actually got very famous. I should still be in the top 100 on some list somewhere.

“I used to be so hot."

Although Jenni appeared bashful about her situation, she was quick to underline the positives of living in a close knit subterranean community.

“It’s not as difficult as you might think, everybody’s really respectful,” she said.

“Everybody’s good to each other, which I don’t think you find much.

“I’m happy, I have everything I need here.

“People are more accepting [underground].”

When asked whether she thought about leaving the tunnels - which were built to protect the city from flash floods and now house thousands of homeless people - Jenni suggested she did, but wasn't particularly bothered about making it out.

She continued: "Sure there’s no water.

"I like that those hardships build camaraderie.

“I feel like you make more genuine friends.”

It is not clear how Jenni found herself in the tunnels.

The tunnels beneath the Las Vegas strip are known for containing many colourful characters, including full-time workers, pan handlers and hustlers.

While full of intense smells and literally underground, the pavements above are often littered with dropped money.
