Adult film star Hayley Davies has opened up about the physical toll of an intense filming schedule during a recent appearance on Holly Randall’s Unfiltered podcast.
Originally from New Zealand, Davies spoke candidly about her move to the United States and the heavy workload she took on soon after arriving. In just six months, she revealed, she had shot around 300 scenes—averaging two per day.
The pace was even more demanding at times, as Davies often filmed multiple scenes in a single day while also managing the editing of her own content. She described the experience as physically exhausting and a stark reflection of the industry’s demands.
“There would be days where because I was doing everything myself – now I have some help with editing – but I would need some days to edit,” she revealed.
Although she wasn’t filming daily, editing responsibilities still meant she was constantly working.
“I never took days off, but I would need days to edit. So not every single day was a collab.”
For those unfamiliar with the term, a ‘collab’ refers to a collaboration between two OF creators producing content together.
While Davies typically filmed two scenes per day, there were occasions where she pushed herself even further.
“I some days did five, which was hectic. Some days might have been like one,” she admitted.
The intense filming schedule inevitably had an impact on her health. Davies openly described the physical strain her body endured from shooting so frequently.
“My p*ssy was getting so painful that I would be taking two Tylenol and two Advil in the mornings before my shoots,” she confessed.
As the day went on, she found herself relying on painkillers even more just to push through.
“Throughout the day, I found myself taking more just to get through. I kept mentally telling myself, ‘It’s OK, I can get through this.’”
Podcast host and adult film director Holly Randall questioned whether Davies ever considered taking an extended break to recover.
“You didn’t think: ‘Maybe I should give my body a break’?” she asked.
However, Davies explained that she never allowed herself more than a couple of days off at a time.
Randall asked what motivated her to keep up such a relentless work pace.
She speculated that Davies might be trying to build up a backlog of content in preparation for a future break.
But Davies clarified that her motivation came from the excitement of her rising success.
“It was because I was blowing up,” she said. “I’m really driven by data and numbers, and everything was going so well—I just wanted to see how far I could take it.”
