from www.csgepotato.com – Well ho-lee shit. It seems that if you do enough digging on any given ring girl, you will find out that she has done porn at one point in her life. According to a few unconfirmed sources from around the MMA blogosphere, it appears that Chandella Powell will be joining the ranks of Logan Stanton, Natasha Wicks, and Edith Labelle as a former UFC ring girl due to…get this…failing to disclose that she once appeared in a couple softcore porn photo shoots and videos under the name “Mariah Ashton.”
What was originally passed off as a common bestiality flick was recently discovered to contain none other than the first ever African American UFC ring girl going “toe-to-toe” with another young starlet. How could you keep this from us, Carmen?
As we all know, Chandella was absent from the UFC’s FUEL TV debut last night, and hasn’t said a word on her Twitter account since Saturday. And since we also know that it is physically impossible for any woman, let alone a public figure, to ignore their Twitter for more than an hour or so, this can only mean that these rumors are unquestionably true. We are not going to provide links to any of the evidence against Ms. Powell, because if you haven’t searched the internet and found them yourself by this point I would be sorely disappointed, Potato Nation.
To give you some perspective on how to deal with this, check out how a few members of the CP staff coped with the heartbreaking news, via a string of emails.
from www.mmamania.com – As you may or may not have heard, UFC Octagon girl Chandella Powell was recently outed on UFC color commentator Joe Rogan’s forum as having a past in the world of pornography.
Indeed, Powell did some work under the name Mariah Ashton. No, she wasn’t involved in any hardcore porn or anything like that but she did enough to cause a stink in the MMA world, enough so that rumors have been running rampant that she’s been fired for her past fleshy indiscretions.
After staying silent on the matter for a few days, Powell took to Twitter last night to address it:
“When you are young, you often don’t realize that your actions have consequences. I made a bad decision about ten years ago, but you learn from these moments. There is nothing I can do to change the past, and believe me, if I could, I would. That decision doesn’t represent who I am today. All I can do now is put the past behind me and move forward. I am sorry to disappoint any of my fans and my family at Zuffa. I love you guys :)”
Hey, we were all young and dumb at one time, right?
No official word has been sent out regarding her status with Zuffa but signs point to her retaining her job. Her profile hasn’t been removed on UFC.com and in fact, it was recently updated to reflect her actual age (it had said she was two and now says she’s 30).
The lesson here? As Rogan himself once famously said, “You can’t stop the Internet.” So if you’ve done some soft porn in your past, hiding it/trying to forget about it will do you no good.
The better lesson? Just don’t do porn, kids.
