Duke University student Miriam Weeks - who made headlines earlier this year when it was revealed she performs in pornographic films under the name Belle Knox - has come out in support of legalizing prostitution.

In an op-ed column for Rolling Stone, Weeks announces that she is 'proud to classify [herself] as a sex worker.'

Weeks writes 'The time has come for the world's oldest profession to be legalized in the so-called Land of the Free for public health, safety and opportunity.'
