Joanna Angel is one of the most popular, admired and respected porn stars in the U.S. In her fifteen years of performing and directing, she has been a trailblazer in making tattooed performers popular in adult entertainment, an innovator in the parody genre of porn and an industry spokesperson for free speech, women’s rights and other issues.
Born in Brooklyn in 1980, Joanna grew up New Jersey and got her B.A. in English and Film Studies from Rutgers University. She moved to the Williamsburg neighborhood in Brooklyn after college. In 2004 she and her roommate Mitch Fontaine founded burningangels.com, a hardcore sex and punk response to the softcore alt-beauty suicidegirls.com site that exploded in popularity at the time.
Soon she started performing in and directing adult films herself. Joanna identifies as a pro-sex feminist and was one of the rare women performers to own her own studio. She received lots of coverage from mainstream media, wrote a sex advice column for Spin magazine and most recently published her own volumes of erotic literature.
In 2016 Joanna married porn actor Aaron “Small Hands” Thompson.
She has won many AVN awards and for 2022 she has been nominated in six AVN categories, including “Best Director of the Year,” and both “Best Directing/Narrative Production” and “Best Screenplay” for Casey: A True Story.
00:01 FRUITSHAKE: “There used to be a piercing female shriek that opened all of her films and scenes and it would scare the fuck out of me and hurt my ears! I’m glad she’s changed the audio accompaniment to her logo.”
SMOOTHIE: “We’ve chosen this scene since it shows her use of diverse sexual practices and preferences in a single scene. We have a transgender performer, cist hetero female and male performers, some kink gear onstage in the background. And lots of her trademark goth sartorial… uh… garb.”
FRUITSHAKE: “Tried to sneak a fancy word in there and messed up!”
00:42 SMOOTHIE: “The scene begins with Katrina Jade making out with transgender performer Aubrey Kate. Aubrey is a former gymnast and was the first trans woman to star in a Wicked Pictures feature.”
02:20 FRUITSHAKE: “In Aubrey’s Pornhub bio it says she only performs with men but that must have changed. She and Katrina are exchanging saliva here and even spitting directly into each other’s mouths.”
03:30 SMOOTHIE: “Aubrey is 5′ 10″ but looks like an Amazon next to Katrina! Now they are in a 69 position.”
04:58 FRUITSHAKE: “Aubrey’s penis isn’t getting firm and now Katrina has positioned herself to lick Aubrey’s anus. I’m crazy for Katrina–such a beautiful face. That sharp jaw! And an incredible ass.”
05:48 SMOOTHIE: “Now Joanna enters the scene, kissing Aubrey and going down on Katrina. Then Aubrey licks Katrina’s pussy while Joanna eats Aubrey’s asshole and slaps her buttocks.”
07:20 FRUITSHAKE: “Joanna is sitting on Katrina’s face. Did Katrina not suck Aubrey’s cock? We may have to deduct points for that.”
07:25 SMOOTHIE: “Technical foul, but I couldn’t verify either so no foul. Now Joanna introduces the first sex toy of the scene, a rigid transparent anal dildo into Aubrey’s ass.”
08:15 FRUITSHAKE: “Now male actor Small Hands has entered the scene. He quickly becomes prone and Aubrey is sucking his cock.”
08:32 SMOOTHIE: “Katrina is sitting on his face and she is making out with Joanna, whose ass looks very nice here.”
08:44 FRUITSHAKE: “Cut to a few minutes later and now Joanna is ramming a pink-colored dildo into Aubrey’s ass. Katrina is gagging on Small Hands’ cock as he stands.
10:18 SMOOTHIE: “Aubrey is now gagging on Small Hand’s johnson as Katrina and Joanna pleasure Aubrey’s rectum and anus.
10:27 FRUITSHAKE: “A choice tableau: saliva drips from Aubrey’s mouth as Small Hands jumps on the table and offers his wet member to Joanna. Aubrey’s large breasts look fantastic from this angle.
12:00 SMOOTHIE: “Joanna, Katrina and Aubrey all take turns sucking the pink dildo and Small Hands’ penis at the same time.”
FRUITSHAKE: “And… we’ll have to go to BurningAngel.com to see the full scene. This is amazing stuff. To think that twenty years ago Joanna was in a college library highlighting every line in a Foucault book and look at her now!”
SMOOTHIE: “Discipline and punish my ass, indeed!”
