LOS ANGELES, August 19, 2015 – Punk rock porn princess Joanna Angel makes a stimulating appearance in the September Sex issue of tattoo lifestyle magazine Inked, available now on newsstands, iTunes, Google Play, Magzter Digital Magazine Store and Inked’s online store.
The notorious adult performer and BurningAngel founder cast, hosted, starred in and directed her racy backyard barbecue photo shoot alongside her famous BurningAngel girls, which Editor-In-Chief Rocky Rakovic referred to as a “magical experience.”
Photographer Bradley Meinz perfectly captured Angel’s creative vision as she deftly guided the performers – Jessie Lee, Ophelia Rain, Lily Lane, Vera Drake, Necro Nicki, Romance, Veronica Layke, Skin Diamond, Sheena Rose, Sammie Six, Kelsi Lynn, Small Hands, Xander Corvus, Michael Vegas, Wolf Hudson and Juanito Blanco – through the shoot, with visually stimulating results.
“My goal was to capture the essence of a BurningAngel party through candid photos and I think it was a success! I am excited for the world to see them!” said Angel. “To make the day even better, it was Small Hands’ birthday, so we had another reason to celebrate. It was a lot of fun to spend time with the beautiful girls (and guys) I have filmed over the years, from Jessie Lee and Skin Diamond to newbies on BurningAngel like Sammie Six and Kelsi Lynn.”
When planning the annual Sex Issue, Rakovic “called my top staff members into our conference room. I told them to close their eyes, picture a tattooed porn star and tell me the first name that came to mind. The first three said, “Joanna Angel!”
“Not only is Joanna Angel on the ‘hall pass’ list of most Inked readers—guys and dolls—our community looks to her to curate the best in adult entertainment targeted toward the tattooed scene.”
“How appealing are the photos? We had trouble culling them down and ran over 40 in this issue,” said Rakovic. “This feature has more images than any that we published in the past three years!”
This year’s issue, so hot it boasts two cover stars in rapper Machine Gun Kelly and adult star Bonnie Rotten, features jam-packed articles, interviews and photo sets of the most intriguing stars in the unique community of tattoo artists and enthusiasts.

ABOUT JOANNA ANGEL AND BURNINGANGEL
Pushing the envelope, the BurningAngel Empire is a refreshingly unique web cocktail of sex, rock n’ roll and pop culture. BurningAngel.com launched in 2002 with a few sets of photos and a band interview, conceived by two amateur college kids from Rutgers, Joanna Angel and Mitch Fontaine. Since its launch, it has exploded into a fierce indie company that has pioneered a new species of erotica known as “alt porn,” with a network of websites and hundreds of DVDs to its credit.
The company is revered for popularizing alternative style girls, and prides itself on delivering hardcore adult content alongside band interviews, record reviews and a community with its own social networking. As both the star of many of BurningAngel’s movies and the company’s spokesperson and owner, Joanna Angel has stormed both mainstream and adult media. She’s appeared on the cover of every major adult magazine (AVN, Club, Hustler, Picture Magazine, Adam Film World and Xtreme, to name a few) and has been featured in many tattoo magazines as well (some include Prick, Taboo, Inked and Savage). She has been featured on Fox News, Playboy TV, Fuse TV, G4 TV, KROQ Radio, as a regular on the Jason Ellis show on SIRIUS Radio, a guest on the 2008 series premiere of TLC’s LA Ink, and in a speaking role on Adult Swim’s “Children’s Hospital.”
Angel has also appeared in The New York Times, Newsweek, The Village Voice, The New York Press, Esquire UK, Details and Penthouse, among others. Heeb Magazine featured Joanna as its cover girl, naming her one of the Top 100 Up-and-Coming Jews in 2005, The New York Post featured her as one of the Top 25 Sexiest New Yorkers, and Playboy.com named Joanna Angel one of the 50 hottest adult stars on Instagram.
She’s also made her mark in the sex toy world, becoming a venerated Fleshlight Girl in 2013 and creating a BDSM line of toys with Stockroom. The same year, she made further strides into the mainstream world with a speaking role in the indie drama Scrapper. BurningAngel has brought home several awards from all the major adult shows—from AVN to XBIZ, to XRCO to YNOT. Some of its accolades include Best Porn Star Website, Best Web Premiere and Best Sex Comedy. From a college dorm room to national television, BurningAngel has made a mark in entertainment, and it’s only just beginning.
