Keogh endured criticism from acquaintances in the early stages of her professional career. She described how some people called her and threatened to disclose her profession in adult entertainment.
“People who knew me would call me up and threaten to snitch’ on me,” she said. Instead of backing down, Keogh got control of the situation.
She took ownership of her profession and reversed the script on those who tried to disgrace her. “The more I started to own it, the more people couldn’t really say anything,” Keogh recalled.
People would phone her and threaten to reveal her stage name in public. “When I see you in the street, I’m going to shout out Roxi Keogh,” they would say.
But Keogh was not intimidated. “Well, go on then, and I’m going to tell everyone what it is that you’re phoning me for,” she said.
She continued: “You’re going to be far more embarrassed.” Her courage enabled her to confront critics and quiet those who attempted to disgrace her.
Keogh’s narrative provides an intriguing look into the surprising reality of the adult industry. She bucked expectations by driving the “Fake Taxi” and owning her profession.
