What do porn stars and lawyers have in common? They both get paid by the hour to screw someone. Crass? Sure. But in light of a famous retired adult film star recently passing the Texas bar exam, maybe it’s a little too on the nose.
Asia Carrera, a former pornography actress who graduated from St. Mary’s Law in 2024, just cleared one of the most notoriously miserable hurdles in the legal profession. Carrera — whose real name is Jessica Steinhauser — previously missed passing by just two points, but was able to turn it around during the February 2026 exam. For what it’s worth, according to TMZ, she has no desire to work as a lawyer, she “just wanted to prove she could pass the bar.”
Here’s the celebratory post she made on Facebook after finding out the good news:
