That’s exactly what you read: Disney renamed animation “Moana – A Sea of Adventures” in Italy, calling it Oceania, to avoid confusion with a famous porn star in the country, the late Moana Pozzi. Sit down and let this Jurassic being who writes to you tell you how this ride was…
Name change in Italy
The studio would have decided to change the name to prevent children from finding material that is very different from animation on the internet. “If you Google Moana in Italy, you risk finding pornographic videos. “Changing that would be very expensive and a waste of money,” explained an expert interviewed by Variety magazine. Despite having died in 1994, Moana Pozzi is a household name in Italy even today.
Even in Brazil, searches for “moana porn actress” and “moana actress” have grown recently.
So, afraid that children would find information about adult film star Moana Pozzi when they search for videos of the animation, they changed the title of the film to “Oceania”. Officially, Disney Italy declined to comment on the name change, but a source at the studio in California said that “titles in foreign territories are changed for a wide variety of reasons.”
Who was Moana Pozzi and her career in Porno:
Anna Moana Rosa Pozzi, born in Genoa on April 27, 1961 and died in Lyon on September 15, 1994, became known as Moana Pozzi or simply Moana. She was a famous pornographic actress, model, politician, writer and Italian television presenter.
She started studying modeling and acting at the age of 19 in Rome and got into porn around 1986. Moana Pozzi also participated in the famous “Curve Deliziose”, alongside the famous Italian porn actress Cicciolina and other Italian actresses in what was the first show to I live in Italy, where naked models masturbated on stage. This scandal caused her to be accused of obscenity and soon she became famous in the porn industry and ended up overshadowing Cicciolina’s popularity in Italy.
Moana Pozzi starred in around 100 pornographic films, mostly in Italy, but also some in Los Angeles with Gerard Damiano as director. She has sold around 1 million videotapes. Moana has been on the cover of 50 major magazines. In 1990 her name was a brand worth more than 50 billion Italian lira, something around 26 million euros.
Writer and Political Career:
In 1991, Moana Pozzi published her first book called “Moana’s Philosophy”, where she listed, with notes ranging from “4” to “9.5”, twenty celebrities who had been her lovers. The list includes names such as Robert De Niro, Harvey Keitel, Roberto Benigni and Massimo Troisi, football players such as Paulo Roberto Falcão and Marco Tardelli, among others. In 1992, Pozzi co-founded with Ilona Staller (the birth name of the famous porn actress Cicciolina), Italy’s Love Party, whose political program included the legalization of brothels, better sex education and the creation of “love parks”. She ran for mayor of Rome and received about 1 percent of the total vote.
In mid-1994, Moana Pozzi was sick and unable to eat without vomiting, so she lost a lot of weight. Towards the end she checked into a clinic in Lyon, France where she died at the age of 33. One report states that she died of liver cancer. Some of her profits were posthumously donated to fund medical research on tumors and her name is known there to this day, which explains Disney’s fear of having her name associated with Google searches.
