VIDEOS Farrah Abraham on Entertainment Tonight
Farrah Abraham continues to make the publicity rounds to not promote her “private” sex tape that she was forced to sell, with her latest stop being an appearance on Entertainment Tonight. In an interview with Brooke Anderson, the 21-year-old single mother of one explains once again that the tape was meant to be private and her “way of embracing my sexuality and being happy for me,” but adds that she was also motivated to make it because she’s, “like, sad sometimes.”
Here’s the full transcript of the Farrah Abraham Entertainment Tonight piece, minus the very beginning and a brief little clip of Vivid owner Steven Hirsch describing how pleased and surprised he is about how popular the video has been:
Voiceover: Since the show 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom, Farrah has been living her life in the public eye, but according to her, she never intended for this sex tape to go public. So she says she hired a pro, James Deen, to help keep it private.
Brooke Anderson: Why a $ex tape?
Farrah Abraham: I have no relationships and I’m, like, sad sometimes. So, taking all this into consideration, which some find it hard to, that’s what brought me here today. I felt this was my way of embracing my sexuality and being happy for me.
Brooke Anderson: Why do this and hire a professional porn star?
Farrah Abraham: I was under the belief this would help better protect me and my privacy. So it’s like, if this guy is so professional, and everything is going to be fine. Then I was, like, I’m happier with this choice.
Voiceover: But James did not keep their filming private, and, as word spread, Farrah says she grew concerned that the entire video would leak.
Farrah Abraham: He kinda made it, like, his own thing. And that’s why I was, like, you know what? Let me be one step ahead and let me gain control of my own video again. So that’s why I was, you know, meeting with different adult entertainment companies.
Brooke Anderson: There’s word you made a million dollars?
Farrah Abraham: You know, I don’t want to talk about things financially — Im pretty private like that — but I did make more than people hear, so some information is wrong.
Brooke Anderson: How do you plan to spend or invest the money?
Farrah Abraham: My plan for the future, number one, is opening up my restaurant. From there it’s mo-, you know, just creating a great environment for my daughter. So, a home, a nice neighborhood. You know, her college is already paid for, and those things I’ve taken care of, so it’s just really coming together as a parent and making the rest of the financial choices for our future.
Brooke Anderson: I also asked Farrah if she plans to do more tapes in the future and she said, ‘Nope. One and done.'”
In the preview teaser clip for the episode, we see the first return of Farrah Abraham’s infamous cry face since the release of the tape as she breaks down saying, “it was embarrassing.” (Wa assume she’s talking about the video going public, but maybe it’s about her musical endeavors?)
UPDATE – Another lengthy clip from Farrah Abraham’s Entertainment Tonight interview has made it online, and in this one Farrah addresses the comparisons between her and Kim Kardashian and talks about Sophia’s decesaed dad Derek Underwood:
Wow, perhaps more remarkable than Farrah implying she looks down on some of Kim Kardashian’s decisions is the fact that ET edited her crying and saying “it’s embarrassing” to look like she was talking about her sex tape when she was actually talking about when she used to break down after Derek died.
And I’m not quite sure what it means that Farrah is not “pleased with the X-rated marketing” of her video? Was Vivid supposed to market it like an Oscar-contending drama?
