Canadian website Shalom Life’s mission is to “share, discuss and inspire our readers with stories about Jewish
culture and life.” So of course an interview with indomitable adult performer Joanna Angel was a no-brainer.
CROSSOVER REPORT
With a focus on Angel as a consummate professional, writer Anthony Marcusa characterizes her as an
“alternative porn star” and a “Jackette of Trades, writing, directing, producing, and acting,” and notes that she
“owns a popular online entertainment portal, battling to sell an artistic product in a saturated market where
inferior content is available for no cost.”
Marcusa also makes sure to include an assurance from the porn punk rock princess that “no matter what is
going on in my life, I’m home on Passover.”

Now that’s a nice girl. But what really comes through in the piece is that this veteran entertainer still oozes
creativity and ambition. “I want to be a part of stores, casinos, strip clubs, clothing lines,” she says at the end of
her interview. “I want porn to be a part of a lifestyle.”
