So, a while back, I mentioned this girl in the now-dead "Porncows" community watch thread. She's done a lot of low-key insane shit over the years, but was never quite on the same level as someone as blatantly insane and criminal as Donny Long or Eddie Dzial, so she's avoided getting her own thread. With this subforum, though, she's probably a more worthy candidate.
Since I don't feel like typing up everything again, I'll just quote myself from then:
Since then, more shit has happened. She resurfaced, and is active on social media again. Following her return, she's provided several different narratives for what's been going on. Initially, she claimed to have been used and abused by her boyfriend, some no-name filmmaker called Sam Macaroni (who has a Wikipedia page that he seems to have written himself).
The story was reported on by Philip DeFranco:
For those who don't watch, basically what happened is that some posts appeared on Sam's Facebook account seemingly from Liz. Some of the allegations made are that Sam had made her leave social media, that he was obsessed with hookers, he stole all her followers, and she was taking legal action against him. These posts have since been deleted, but luckily DeFranco provides some screencaps:
DeFranco reached out to Sam, who claimed that his girlfriend was "just drunk and crazy." It's really difficult to determine what actually happened, and DeFranco's follow-up video where he actually talks to Liz doesn't really serve to clear anything up:
She dismisses the whole thing and tries to play it off like it isn't really much more than a lover's quarrel. The way I see it, there's only two possibilities here. Either she's a victim of abuse who was intimidated into doing damage control by her abuser, or she's a delusional liar who made a bunch of shit up in the middle of a drunken rage. Either way, it doesn't look good for her. A redditor who claimed to be a marriage and family therapy trainee weighed in on the situation.
TL;DW her boyfriend convinced her to delete all her shit because of some business deal that eventually fell through. She thought he was gonna propose to her, but he didn't which she claims she's fine with. She confirms in this video that she agreed to it, and she doesn't fault him for anything, which is a far cry from her previous narrative that he forced her to delete everything and was forbidding her from using social media. Either she was lying in those posts, or she's lying in this video. The comments section isn't buying this explanation, and a lot of them believe her to be an abuse victim. She additionally claimed on Facebook that she never said she was abused. While she didn't actually use the word "abuse," there's still no getting around this being another lie:
She was also essentially forced to finally address her past in porn due to too many people knowing about it:
One thing that really stood out to me in this video was that she claimed to never have denied being in porn or lied about it. While that's technically true, she essentially tried to do that by memory holing everything even remotely related to it. Also she denies leaving the net because people spammed links to it, like I said she did in my initial post about her. While I admittedly don't have any screencaps of it, there are enough fans of hers who reference that to lead me to believe it did in fact happen. So, I'm just going to assume she's lying again.
Finally, she now has a paid subscription service on her website she calls the "Gritty Kitty Club." Basically, you pay her a monthly fee for access to some pics not on her social media accounts (no intentional nudes except her ass, though). The problem with this is that she apparently has a nasty habit of failing to deliver content. She's claimed to be "sick" so many times that you'd think her immune system was failing her. Most of the pictures eventually show up on her subreddit, and most of them aren't really all that different from what you'd get from her for free, with the occasional seminude thrown in to give the illusion of premium content.

Risi Simms/Liz Katz
Dunno if she could be considered as big a cow as some others, but there's definitely some lolcow elements. She ran away from home at 16 and eventually found herself in porn, some of which may have been filmed while she was still a minor. I remember reading an interview with her a while back, in which she claimed that she'd go to school topless for attention, and once shaved her head for the same reason (the latter claim is supported by high school yearbook pictures which used to be on her Facebook before she deleted it). Unfortunately, this no longer seems to exist, so she may have had it pulled down.
Simms claimed to retire from porn in 2012, and resurfaced as "Liz Katz," apparently her real name. She basically became a cosplay whore. None of her cosplays were anything special, and the whole thing seemed to be just another way for her to show off her body without actually getting naked anymore. She also ran a YouTube channel. Most of the videos just seemed to consist of "lol seww randum" attempts at humor, so I didn't pay much attention to it (though, to her credit, she did find a home for a stray dog she found). Her two most notable videos were the one where she sperged over people calling her a "fake nerd girl" and came across as insecurely trying to prove her "nerdiness" (unfortunately doesn't seem to exist anymore), and one where she talked about some girl who bullied her in elementary school (using the girl's full name and showing a recent photo of her), and pretty much came across as a bitter cunt. She was clearly attention whoring in these videos, especially in her channel's later days (one, for example, was filmed right after a shower, with Liz clad only in a towel, for no reason). Most of these seem to be lost, though a few still survive. She later became yet another Twitch.tv whore, and did that for a while. In the meantime, she continued to do porn for a bit despite claiming to have retired. She "left" the porn industry in 2012, but her most recent porno, according to IMDb, came out on July 2, 2013. This was well after she reinvented herself as Liz Katz (addendum: to be fair, these may have been filmed earlier).
Off-topic, but the only review for this flick was written by two people, a father and a son, which I found a bit strange. A quick scan of the guy's user page shows that this guy and his father watch and review porn on a semi-frequent basis. Again, this is a bit strange to me, and honestly if there is more content, he might be thread-worthy. I'll make a note of it for later.
Anyway, she made every attempt to deny her past as Risi Simms, and would almost instantly block anybody who referenced it, and deleted the comments immediately. It's totally understandable that she wouldn't want to discuss the fact that she did porn, but she was completely fucking Orwellian about it. For reference, similar streamers like KneeColeSlaw and Jessie Rogers both at least own up to the fact that they used to do porn, though they generally avoid discussing it. Liz, on the other hand, expected her audience to believe that Risi Simms was a completely different person who just happened to look exactly like her, and just happened to have the exact same tattoos. She continued to do porn as Risi while she did her shtick as Liz, though nobody was supposed to know, and any mention of it got memory holed.
Earlier this year, her fanbase finally put two and two together and figured out that *gasp* Liz Katz was Risi Simms!! Even though her content was freely available online for years. They spammed her social media pages with links to her videos. She sperged out over Twitter before deleting everything and pretty much quitting the internet. It should be noted that she claimed to be bipolar.
