You Are A Star by Miles-DF on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Considering how desperate Sawyer was to be more than just a paid extra in movies, it doesn't surprise me that she started doing porn movies. But is this before of after the events of CDD? Either way, like many would be starlets who come to Hollywood, convinced they're going to be next big thing, they soon discover that making it in show business isn't as easy as it looks, and end up doing adult movies to make ends meet. Of course they could likely find work that does not require them to remove their clothes. But for some, the need for attention, even from the raincoat crowd, is more important than some, sense of self dignity.

Ironically, I've been reading Inside Linda Lovelace which was originally published back in 1971, shortly after Deep Throat debuted, in which the author brags about what great a porn actress she is, how fun and liberating sex and porn movies are, and that she is destined for greatness! Those who've read about Linda Lovelace on Wikipedia know how that turned out. That could explain why Linda later published Ordeal, claiming she was forced to perform in porn movies against her will.

But if Sawyer went into the adult entertainment industry, either before of after the events of Cats Don't Dance, perhaps she too would initially boast about how awesome an adult actress she is how she's going to be famous. Only to later recant her earlier boasts, insisting she was compelled or forced into making porn movies.

Either way, I appreciate the artist for posting this image. Cruel as that may sound. Most fans insist on portraying Danny and Sawyer as hugely successful and popular celebrities, rubbing elbows with truly legitimate toon stars. When in truth, neither Danny nor Sawyer have been seen or heard from in 26 years. There needs to be more images revealing what has happened after CDD's disastrous debute back in 1997.

In my head cannon, Danny ends up back in Kokomo Indiana, working the consession stand at the local drive-in theater. Of course if he knew Sawyer was doing adult movies, Danny would willingly trade places with his former costar. Just for the chance to be in front of the camera again.
