About Mia Khalifa
Mia Khalifa is the professional name of Sarah Joe Chamoun. She’s a Lebanese-American former pornographic actress, social media personality and webcam model. She was born in Beirut, Lebanon in the early 1990s and moved to Maryland, USA one decade later. Her short-lived career in pornography began in October 2014 and instantly, she became the most viewed performer on porn websites such as Pornhub for many months.
Mia Khalifa gained international fame after she became a pornographic actress, especially thanks to a video in particular, in which she wore a hijab while performing sexual acts. Sarah was born on February 10, 1993, in Beirut, Lebanon. She’s the only child of Antoun and RIma Chamoun. Her family left their home in the wake of the highly contentious South Lebanon conflict and immigrated to the United States in 2001, where they settled in Montgomery County, Maryland.
During her short time in Lebanon, Sarah attended a French-language private school, where she learned English. Upon her move to Maryland, she joined the Northwest High School where she played lacrosse. While in high school, she faced a lot of bullying and was called out for being “the darkest and weirdest girl” in class, something that intensified after the September 11 attacks. She then moved to the Massanutten Military Academy in Woodstock, Virginia before moving to Texas to study at the University of Texas at El Paso. She graduated from the institution in 2014 with a Bachelor of Arts in history.
The former pornographic actress began to get rich after she entered the industry. She has said of her experience, “I was walking across the street . . . this guy AKA p*rn producer stops and gets off his car, giving me his card, & i thought about it for about two weeks then you made the mistake of saying yes and going in. and . . . yeah, I did it for about three months, and as soon as I started to gain popularity, that’s when I was like, “OK I need to get the heck out of here, this isn’t what I was trying to do whatsoever”, I wanted to let loose and rebel.”
In early 2014, before she joined the pornography business, while attending university, she worked various jobs to support herself. She made little to no money from her work as a model and bartender. Eventually, she became a briefcase girl and worked on the local Deal or No-Deal Spanish game show.
A few months later, she began using the name Mia Khalifa and created accounts on various social media pages. She posted several pornographic images with her husband to the NSFW subreddit on Reddit. In October, she entered the industry and began receiving an estimated $25,000 in two weeks from her work. She then gained widespread attention after the release of a video from BangBros in which she appeared with a hijab while performing sexual acts with Julianna Vega and Sean Lawless.
Besides making more than an estimated $50,000 from that video in just a month, the video also brought Khalifa instant popularity accompanied with criticism from religious figures and writers. It also led to her parents disowning her, which sparked the attention of media and websites.
For the past five years, she has transitioned into a social media personality and webcam model. She runs her own YouTube channel, which as of now has over 872,000 subscribers and her 46 videos have accumulated a total of 47 million views. Besides the video-sharing platform, she’s also an active streamer on Twitch and sells her own merchandise, photoshoots on the website Patreon. Most recently, from October 2017 to February 2018, she became a television host that presented the daily sports show Out of Bounds alongside Gilbert Arenas. In 2018, she hosted another show – Sports Ball with Tyler Coe. She has also released
What makes the media personality so successful are her many ventures, and not only in pornography. Immediately after she became a pornographic actress, Mia Khalifa became the most watched performer on PornHub and other websites. In January 2015, she signed long-term contract with the Bang Bros parent company – WGCZ Holding. She later claimed that she stopped working as an adult-film actor immediately as she had a change of heart and decided to leave the industry for other opportunities.
