Adult content creator defends filming porn video at North Tyneside Travelodge

An adult content creator who is under investigation by Travelodge for filming a pornographic video inside one of its hotels has said she did nothing wrong.

Lacey Amour is alleged to be among a group of 28 people who checked into a Travelodge on Cobalt Business Park in North Tyneside on December 12 to film adult content. It is reported that the group made reservations at the hotel and took pictures and video footage in public areas, including corridors and lifts.

However, Ms Amour denied that any filming had taken place outside the hotel rooms and claimed the group had been "just trying to do our jobs".

The 23-year-old, from South Wales, told BBC: "We face injustice and discrimination that other industries don't."

Ms Amour has nearly a quarter of a million followers on Instagram and recently revealed to her fans that she had been "told to leave" France by police after being caught filming adult content in a London taxi near the Eiffel Tower.

She added: "This is one of the longest-running industries [adult content creation] to exist and we face injustice and discrimination that other industries don't. We are all professionals."

Travelodge said it was aware that filming had taken place without its authorisation but did not know about the incident until after the group checked out. The hotel chain is now investigating a potential breach of its terms and conditions.

Terms and conditions on the Travelodge website state: "In making a Travelodge room booking you agree to not use the Travelodge hotel or its facilities to conduct any commercial activity or activity that seeks to gain profit without prior written consent from Travelodge.

"Travelodge reserves the right to terminate your booking and retain any money paid to us for such booking if we believe that you are in full or part breach of this provision."

A spokesperson for Travelodge said: "We have been made aware of an allegation that filming may have taken place in one of our hotels, without our authorisation and against the terms of our booking conditions. We were not aware of this reservation as it was made online, similar to the millions of bookings made via our website.

"We are currently conducting an investigation regarding this incident and we will have no hesitation in terminating any future bookings and taking legal action if we believe an individual is in breach of our terms and conditions."
