‘Bachelorette’ Villain Chad Johnson Moving to Vegas To Start Porn Career

A former Bachelorette competitor is moving from TV-14 to XXX content. Chad Johnson first appeared on JoJo Fletcher’s season of The Bachelorette in 2016 and went on to compete in the spinoff series Bachelor in Paradise — now, he tells TMZ that he’s planning to move to Las Vegas, Nevada, to launch a career in porn after his reality TV stint.

Johnson plans to move to Las Vegas and buy a house, where he’ll create his own “porn studio” to create content and house others looking to get into the adult entertainment industry. Johnson has already started an OnlyFans account to create X-rated videos, and he told the Daily Mail that he’s making thousands off it each month. “I’m tired of basically being fucked around by Hollywood,” Johnson told the outlet. “I need money, I gotta figure out something, this is a way to take the power back.”

“I’ve always had a really crazy high sex drive,” he added, “so it’s been pretty easy for me to be able to make money off of. It is fucking amazing. I don’t regret it at all. I always knew I’d do something in this industry — I just wasn’t sure what.”

Johnson plans to start his career with his girlfriend, Annalise Mishler. In February, Johnson was arrested for domestic violence and charged with six misdemeanors after Mishler called the police following a fight between the two. Johnson later pleaded not guilty to all six misdemeanors. After his arrest, police made two welfare checks on Johnson, and he was later hospitalized for a suicide threat.

When Johnson first competed on The Bachelorette Season 12, he was known as the villain of the season and was nicknamed “Bad Chad” for his antics with other competitors, like bullying and bouts of aggression. Johnson was sent home by Fletcher, but he later appeared on Bachelor in Paradise, where he was told to leave by Chris Harrison after making threats against the host.
