Jenna Haze (born February 22, 1982) is an American pornographic actress.[1] She entered the adult film industry in 2001 at the age of 19. Between 2002 and 2005, she was a contract girl for the film company Jill Kelly Productions. During most of her time at the company, she performed exclusively with women, out of loyalty to her then boyfriend, an industry cameraman. She returned to working with men in the 2006 multi-award winning release Jenna Haze Darkside, produced by Jules Jordan.[5] Haze herself has won numerous adult industry awards, including the 2003 AVN Award for Best New Starlet and the 2009 AVN Award for Female Performer of the Year.
Early life
Haze was born in Fullerton, California and grew up mainly in La Habra, California,[2] but also spent time in Lancaster, California and Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota. Haze grew up with divorced parents and two sisters and a brother, all much older than her.[1] She is of Spanish, German and Irish descent.[6]
She received good grades in school, until about junior high school when she "discovered boys and sex" and became a filthy slut.[1] By age 15 she had dropped out of high school, had to receive homeschooling and found her first job. She had a series of low wage jobs such as a fast food manager, oil change girl and a Christmas job stocking shelves at a toy store.[1][2]
When Haze turned 18, she tried stripping for a day, but did not enjoy being a house girl, giving lap dances to men she had to pretend to like for low wages.[1] At age 19, while at her favorite nightclub in Anaheim, California, her boyfriend introduced her to a friend who knew the adult actor (aka a man slut) Peter North and the actor/director Craven Moorehead. She gladly accepted an offer from Moorehead to participate in a film and two days later she shot her first scene.[1]
Film career
Haze's first scene was for The Oral Adventures of Craven Moorehead 8 with her agent Slim Shady (Dez) and his best friend, Moorehead.[1][2][7] It was intended to only be an oral scene, but in the heat of the moment she had intercourse with both.[8] The next day she shot a scene with Miles Long in Joey Silvera's Service Animals 4.[2][8] A few months later, she realized that she did not need an agent and started to represent herself.[1]
In February 2002, Haze appeared in a scene for Jill Kelly Productions (JKP), directed by Jill Kelly herself. Kelly was impressed by her performance and JKP offered Haze an exclusive performing contract. This was soon followed by offers from other companies, but in April 2002 Haze decided to sign with JKP, as they offered the extra flexibility she needed to make money and build her career.[1][9] The company to her was more than just a business, but a family too. She also enjoyed the idea of having a group of girls around her and working for a company run by a woman.[1] Soon after signing with JKP, she formed a serious relationship with an industry cameraman and began a three-year period of performing exclusively with women.[1][5] At the 2003 AVN Awards ceremony, Haze was named Best New Starlet and her masturbation scene in Big Bottom Sadie was awarded Best Solo Sex Scene.[10] In 2004, she appeared on the HBO show Pornucopia, a six-part documentary on the pornography industry in California.[11]
Haze became a free agent in April 2005, after deciding not to renew her contract with JKP, partly because Jill Kelly had recently left the company.[12] After leaving JKP and splitting with her boyfriend, Haze returned to working with male performers. The April 2006 release Jenna Haze Darkside featured her first boy-girl scenes in over three years, along with her first interracial scene with Mr. Marcus. The film was produced and directed by her new boyfriend Jules Jordan.[5] Later in the year, she began writing a sex advice column for the pornographic magazine, Fox.[13] She also started feature dancing, represented by the agency Lee Network.[14] The first achievement in her feature dancing career was a nomination for Best Feature Entertainer at the 2007 Night Moves Awards.[15] Her film work was also rewarded in 2007, with AVN Awards for Best Oral Sex Scene (Video) and Best Group Sex Scene (Video), as well as a nomination for Female Performer of the Year.[10] In April 2007, Jenna Haze Oil Orgy became the first adult movie to be released on Blu-ray format.[16] Meanwhile, in the same month, her official website was launched by Premium Multimedia.[17] In the 2007 mainstream comedy film, Superbad, Haze made a short appearance in the role of Vagtastic Voyage Girl #2.[18] She was also among the adult stars featured in the erotic photography book Naked Ambition: An R-Rated Look at an X-Rated Industry, published in November 2007. The special edition of the book included a fine art photograph of Haze signed by the photographer Michael Grecco.[19] In January 2008, her scene with Manuel Ferrara in Evil Anal 2 won the AVN Award for Best Couples Sex Scene (Video).[20] In August 2008, Haze achieved the first feature dancing award of her career winning Adult Movie Entertainer of the Year in the 11th annual Adult Nightclub and Exotic Dancer Awards.[21] On January 10, 2009, Haze and Belladonna hosted the 2009 AVN Awards,[22] and Haze won Female Performer of the Year.[23]
Haze made a short appearance in the action/thriller film Crank: High Voltage as a whore on strike.[8]
In 2011, she was named by CNBC as one of the 12 most popular stars in porn.[24] CNBC opined that she is "arguably the most popular performer in porn today", noting that she had been nominated by AVN for Female Performer of the Year three years in a row, similar nominations by the XBIZ Awards in 2009, and her popularity with members of the AEBN.
Jennaration X Studios
In 2009 Jenna Haze launched her own production company, Jennaration X Studios, headed by Haze and distributed through Jules Jordan Video. Haze is directing and performing in her production films.[25]
Jennaration X debut film, Cum-Spoiled Sluts,[26] (featuring scenes with Haze, Johnny Sins, Nikki Rhodes and James Deen) was released March 23, 2009, followed by Anal Academics which was released July 6, 2009.[27]
