This week we are featuring a true California blonde who has been turning heads and causing a lot of hard wood with her film appearance for the past few years. Our “Girl of the Week” for this week is the delectable Riley Steele.
Riley grew up and went to school in Escondido, California. After school, she began working at a local Starbucks and also at a golf course snack bar.With her looks there was a lot of avenues she could pursue, but she always had an interest in pornography. In 2005 Riley went to Hollywood to attend a personal appearance by adult star Jesse Jane who was promoting the film “Pirates”. Jane was a personal favorite of Riley’s and when they met Riley knew what she wanted to do.
Jesse advised her, with her looks and body, to get into the adult film business and gave Steele her card. However, Riley didn’t jump right into it and did some other non adult things for a while. A couple of years later Riley did contact the folks at Digital Playground and Joone, the director and founder of the company signed her to an exclusive contract that same day. Her very first porn scene was in the 2008 release “Naked Aces” and a star was born.
From that point on, as a Digital Playground contract girl, Riley starred in a number of films including the sequel to “Pirates” that was titled “Pirates II: Stagnetti’s Revenge” and gained a lot of praise for her talents both sexually and as an actress. With that the awards and nominations began to come beginning in 2011 from AVN, XBIZ, NightMoves, XRCO and others and the nominations and wins haven’t stopped. At last count Riley had won over two dozen awards for her work in adult films.
Further proof of her stardom in the adult field was in 2011 when she hosted the big AVN Awards show in Las Vegas. She also got into the mainstream arena with a role in the 3D horror film “Piranha 3D”, as well as a few other mainstream appearances in films and TV. In 2012 Riley announced that she and fellow performer Bibi Jones were retiring from the business but it was never a serious consideration for Ms. Steele and done more as a joke.
With all the changes taking place in the industry and with Digital Playground no longer owned by Joone, Riley left the company when her contract expired. She continued to get work in a variety of porn films, but in September 2013 everything changed for the better for Riley. She inked a two year contract deal with director Axel Braun and that merger of Riley and Braun really put her back on the map with her award winning “Riley Goes Gonzo” release for Axel Braun productions and her award worthy roles in Braun’s parodies of Snow White, Cinderella and, the title role in the Barbarella XXX parody.
While Riley does hold a real estate license, considering her successes in the past couple of years, I doubt she will be out selling house any time soon. She is a fun, friendly girl to be around and spend time with. She has shown that she can do just about anything sexually and also handler a variety of different roles in a very realistic and believable manner. In addition to the film parodies we mentioned, check out Riley in the just released “Peter Pan XXX An Axel Braun Parody” for Wicked Pictures. Riley plays the role of Tinker Bell and she is a wow!
I am very pleased to have the sexy and beautiful Riley Steele as our “Girl of the Week” here on AAN.
