Shelley Lubben

Shelley Lubben is one of the world’s leading advocates in the antipornography movement. A former pornographic actress who performed under the stage name of Roxy, she left the sex industry in 1994.

Upon her eight year recovery at the Champion’s Centre in Tacoma, Washington, she reentered society as a new Champion woman and began teaching and preaching in prisons and rescue missions in Central California. Ordained as a Chaplain with the Order of Saint Martin.

Fifteen years into recovery, Shelley has appeared on both Christian and secular television and radio shows and speaks out passionately about the harms of pornography as well as shares her inspirational story.

Shelley also serves as the Executive Director of Pink Cross Foundation, a nonprofit organization that offers hope, healing and support to adult industry workers around the world. Shelley Lubben is sought worldwide to speak, educate, testify, and counsel individuals, organizations, professionals and governments regarding the illegally operating porn industry, pornography addiction, recovery from sexual abuse and the sex industry and the Champion life.

"Truth Behind the Fantasy of Porn: The Greatest Illusion on Earth", rips the seductive mask off of pornography and exposes the hardcore truth behind the “greatest illusion on earth”.

Her spectacular journey from childhood sexual abuse to prostitution to the deadly unglamorous realm of porn sets, Shelley is brutally honest about her past. She tells her powerful story of escaping the porn industry at 26, offering a message of hope to the entire world.

The first ever book exposing the “secret” side of porn, Shelley wants you to know the hardcore truth. Pornography is modern day slavery for thousands of women and the millions of porn addicts who can’t stop clicking.

On February 17, 2011, Shelley will take part in a debate in the United Kingdom. She will face Johnny Anglais and Anna Arrowsmith, who are both part of the United Kingdom's porn industry, debating the issues of pornography.
