Well, if you grew up with the iconic 90s show Boy Meets World, you might be surprised to learn about one of its stars, Maitland Ward. This actress, known for her role as Rachel McGuire during the show’s sixth and seventh seasons, has plunged into the adult entertainment industry, raising eyebrows and curiosity alike! As we navigate through the cosmic energies of the day, it seems fitting that Ward’s journey reflects the bold and transformative spirit of a daring astrological alignment. At 48, she not only embraces her new role but also highlights the importance of safety and consent in a profession often misunderstood. So, what unique clauses does she insist upon in her contract? Trust me, this is a reveal you won’t want to miss… LEARN MORE.
A Disney actor-turned-adult film star has revealed a specific clause in her contract that must be followed.
If you grew up in the late 1990s to 2000s, you’ll have heard of the popular Disney show Boy Meets World, with one of the sitcom’s stars making a drastic career change in the years since it wrapped.
While it’s been almost 25 years since the TV show ended, the actress behind Rachel McGuire in seasons six and seven has taken the time to jump over to the adult industry.
Maitland Ward played the character, in what was her breakout role before making appearances in films such as Dish Dogs and White Chicks.
But in the porn industry, it turns out that the 48-year-old has specific requirements that need to be met.
Ward spoke out about the idea of the industry being unsafe after the release of a graphic movie titled Pleasure back in 2021.
Directed by Ninja Thyberg, the film explores the dark side of adult film-making, following aspiring porn star Bella Cherry (Sofia Kappel), who is pressured to fight her nerves and doubts as she gets cold feet in the lead up to her first scene.
The men in Pleasure are framed as gross and sleazy, half-drooling over the new adult stars, making them feel uncomfortable in the lead-up to the shoot.
However, the 2022 XBIX Porn Performer of the Year claimed the exact opposite of the industry.
She revealed that because of how experienced the crew are, they aren’t affected at all by the X-rated scenes in front of them.
Speaking to The Sun in 2022, the actress said: “Most of the guys are so bored with it, they’ve seen it all a million times. They’re probably thinking about what to have for lunch or picking up the kids from school.
“Honestly no one is staring at you drooling, there are no seedy guys jerking off in the corner. It’s a job. We enjoy it, but it’s a job.”

Ward first appeared in US soap The Bold and the Beautiful in the 90s, but her role in Boy Meets World from 1998-2000 really pushed her into the mainstream.
She was told she was ‘too old to be sexy’ by Hollywood directors, which prompted her to make a career switch, in which she claimed: “I have never ever in a million years been pressured to do anything I didn’t want to do by a male director or a male performer.
“In the sets I have always been on, if you say no, the rule is the filming stops with no questions asked.”
She said that there are now strict rules and clauses in contracts to protect stars while filming movies, going on to explain: “People think a porn set is like some wild orgy 24/7 but it’s not – it’s more controlled than you could imagine.
“All the sexual positions have to be agreed on, written down, in black and white. You agree in writing to have sex on film and exactly what that sex will be.
“You have to say you’re not under the influence of anything or anyone.
“Even the celebrity sex tapes these days, if that film is in a store being sold with a cover and everything, then they would have had to agree to that.”

Ward also said that it is a very physically demanding job, as people may need breaks at times, with water on hand if necessary.
She added: “Believe me it’s hard work. If you’re doing 45 minutes of acrobatic sex with two guys it can be a lot of hard work.
“It’s like a dance routine – like for ice skaters, for example, it’s a routine, you’re performing to the cameras.”
Despite her day job, Ward is happily married to Terry Baxter, a real estate agent who supports her career.
The former soap star also revealed that the number of guys she has sex with for her job is limited due to the small pool of top male performers.
Ward explained: “My girlfriends tease me saying, ‘Oh my God you must be having sex with all these different guys all day every day’.
“But let me tell you, there are about 15 top male performers in this industry and you get to work with the same ones again and again.
“There actually isn’t that much variety.”
