Behind the Pages of Filthy! with Vic Lagina
In this eye-opening episode of WV Uncommonplace Interviews and Sessions, JR Sparrow sits down with Vic Lagina, the author of the brutally honest memoir Filthy! The Rise and (Pending) Death of Vic Lagina. Vic takes us on a raw, unfiltered journey through his 20-year career in the adult entertainment industry, where he worked for the world’s largest company (Mansef/Manwin/Mindgeek).
Vic opens up about why he left the industry, his decision to write his memoir, and the process of reflecting on his unconventional life. He shares the highs, lows, and the surprising irony that his memoir has been nominated for the 2025 AVN Mainstream Endeavor of the Year award.
