Brandi Love (born 1973 or 1974[1]) is an American pornographic film actress and conservative political activist.[2][3] She is a member of the AVN and XRCO Halls of Fame.

Personal life

Love was born in Dearborn, Michigan.[4] She attended Central Michigan University,[5] where she met Chris Potoski. They married in 1994 while still at university and as of 2018 they had one child, a daughter (born c. 2000).[1][3] After she began her career in pornography, she and Potoski were investigated after Love's father and stepmother made a complaint to police regarding her and Potoski's daughter.[1] She and her husband set up a now-defunct advocacy group, called Parents in Adult, as a result of the experience.[1][3]

Career

After Potoski suffered a heart attack brought on by the stress of his job, Love and he decided to make a career change. Already swingers, they started making pornography by recording themselves having sex and posting the videos on their own amateur pornography website in 2003.[1][5][6] In 2006, she and Potoski collaborated with Falcon Foto to form Naked Rhino Media, a multimedia company creating niche pornographic content.[7] In 2013, it was announced that Kelly Madison Media was developing a new website for Love and would take part in the production of new content.[6]

In 2008, Love released her book, Getting Wild Sex from Your Conservative Woman,[6] and appeared on an episode of Penn & Teller: Bullshit! titled "The War on Porn".[8] Throughout her career as an adult film performer, she became known for her appearances in MILF and hot wife–themed productions.[9]

Political views

Love is a self-described conservative and Republican who supported Donald Trump and "voted for Bill Clinton back in the day".[10] She has written articles for The Federalist, a conservative online magazine.[10]

In July 2021, Love was expelled from a Florida conference by the conservative student organization Turning Point USA after attending several panels.[11] Many conservatives denounced Love being admitted to a conference aimed towards younger students and minors, while Federalist co-founder Ben Domenech criticized the ban.[12] Love denounced the ban as an example of cancel culture.[13] She later told Newsweek that she would support a presidential campaign by Florida governor Ron DeSantis in 2024 if Trump declined to run again.[2]
