Mia Khalifa Stuns Fans And Reveals Real Name

May 4 2024

Mia Khalifa has shocked her fans by revealing her real name which is Sarah Joe Chamoun.

The now businesswoman updated her Instagram bio to include her real name, although her username remains the same, which left a lot of social media users quite confused.

Even though she still uses her former stage name when it comes to filming content and brand deals, it is clear that she is now embracing her real name also in the public eye.

Chamoun decided on her stage name way back in 201 when she broke out in the adult entertainment industry. She decided Mia as it was the name of her dog and Khalifa thanks to famous musician Wiz Khalifa which is also a stage name for those who do not know.

The model, 31, only spent a mere few months working in adult entertainment but she quickly became one of the most popular porn stars around.

You’d think she’d have earned some big bucks during her time in the industry, but Mia says she ended up walking away with a measly $12,000 and claims she ‘never saw a penny again after that’.

Sammut thankes Briffa for his work that will always remind fans of the club’s historic 10th league title and their first star.
