Farrah Abraham Says She Made A Porno To Look Back On When She's Old
"Teen Mom" star Farrah Abraham has admitted to making a porn with adult superstar James Deen, but claims that she did it to immortalize her young and nubile body so that she would have something like a sex scrapbook to look back on when she's all old and wrinkled.
"I wanted my own personal video made and photos taken for myself, when I am older I will have my best year to look back on," the 21-year-old reality star told Today.com.
The back-and-forth over whether Abraham made a sex tape has been going on all week, with news outlets (including us) first reporting that the video in question was made privately and leaked accidentally.
But yesterday, Deen -- who claims that he "can't really lie" -- opened up to reporters and said that the tape was actually a porn, and was made deliberately and with everyone's consent.
He declined to comment on whether he took time out of his life and career just to create a souvenir of Abraham's youth.
Abraham, for her part, is furious with Deen, telling Today.com that she "personally will never have anything to do with James." She also has a message for the haters that she posted on Twitter, which is of course the preferred platform for speaking to haters:
I 'm going to ignore all the lies, all the hate, all the disrespectful people who want 2 take advantage of me, have fun making money off me

According to TMZ, Abraham did add that she'd be willing to sell the tape, if someone would be willing to pay several million dollars.
