Do JAV actresses eat paper to stay skinny?

Have you watched 30 Rock, the popular American comedy show? During Season 2 Episode 2, one of the main characters, Jenna Maroney, has gained weight and needs to lose the weight quickly before she goes on the TGS live. She starts the "Japanese porn star diet."

You can watch the clip of Jenna explaining it here.

And I quote: "It's the Japanese porn star diet. I only eat paper, but I can eat all the paper I want, so..."

If you watch JAV, which you likely do if you're reading this, then you notice many of the actresses are on the more naturally toned/skinnier side compared to the western actresses. Is it true though they only eat paper like Jenna said to stay the way they are? Let's take a look.

Japan is known - among other things - for, well, Japanese food. Japanese food tends to be well balanced, nutritious, and portioned for smaller yet more variety of flavors.

The country also has a whole smorgasbord of food choices when you look at the bigger cities in the country. They range from high end dining to well known fast food.

When you follow JAV actresses on their social media you'll find they sometimes post foods they eat, whether it be by themselves or with other fellow actresses.

Anri Okita recently went to the Park Hyatt Tokyo to have afternoon tea with Pon Kamiya, Ruka Kanae, Yui Hatano, and Hibiki Otsuki.

While eating an excess of sweets can lead to weight gain, it looks like they're sharing the 3 towers amongst the 5 of them. Normally 1 tower is meant for 1 person so the calorie gain isn't too bad per person.

Portion control is a big factor in keeping or losing weight. Even Hana Haruna, whose known to be thicc, eats tsukemen (basically ramen noodles you dip into the soup). Ramen soup isn't exactly the healthiest but if you keep the portion size small and not Jiro size then it's OK to eat. I don't mind Hana staying thicc, very sexy. She did used to be skinnier when she first started her JAV career 10+ years ago.

On the healthier side we can see Hitomi Tanaka eating a salad. While the croutons are very large in size, look at the size of the salad compared to her hand. Not a very big salad and if it fills her up then not a problem.

You also have actresses who, despite loving to eat fast food like Kurea Hasumi (loves McDonalds), stay skinny. While she does eat it often it's not something she eats everyday, at least based on how often she posts McDonalds food. You could say it's more like a treat every now and then.

When actresses are on set they normally eat a bento, like Chitose Saegusa / Chitose Yura.

Maria Nagai eating meringue.

JULIA loves to eat candy and frozen treats.

I think the most junk food I see JAV actresses get are when they have fan events and fans give them food, from junk food to high end pastries, like this one from Hitomi Tanaka. I don't know if the actresses actually eat all the food or it gets spread around through her agency but it's always appreciated.

What about drinks? Is it only water and tea? Nope!

Here we see Julia Yoshine drinking Orion beer, the most well known beer from Okinawa, Japan.

Yuu Sakura drinking what's likely a lemon highball.

As you can see, JAV actresses do not eat paper, at least none that I know of. So we can say the "Japanese porn star diet" Jenna tries to do is fake. Our favorite JAV actresses love to eat just like we do. What keeps them skinny is likely more portion control, despite eating foods that can be high in calories. Of course doing exercise does help to maintain or even lower their weight as well. 

Are there any actresses you follow who have a food obsession?
