complexion and the lilt in
her voice you may think that
Amarna Miller just stepped off the
plane from Dublin. She’s from Madrid.
She selected her work name carefully,
getting “Amarna” from an ancient
Egyptian capital famous for its art
and “Miller” from erotic writer Henry
Miller.
As a college student, she worked at
an adult production company in Spain,
behind the cameras, “and I decided
that I really wanted to be also in front
of them. I love photography and all
the ways of creative representation.”
She performed “as a hobby” for two
years until she finished her college
degree and then went into full-time
performing.
She has appeared in productions
for SexArt, Private, Viv Thomas,
JoyBear and Video Marc Dorcel in
Europe, and Bang Bros., Kink.com,
Blacked and New Sensations in the
U.S. She has also done nude modeling
for abbywinters.com and appeared
in one of the company’s relatively
rare boy/girl shoots. She introduced
her close friend Amber Nevada into
performing on camera as well, and
their filmography includes four scenes
together.
Among Miller’s favorite scenes are
Rocco’s Perfect Slaves 6 for Evil Angel
with Nikita Bellucci, Markus Tynai,
Mike Angelo and Ian Scott; Wanderlust
for Porn Fidelity with Ryan Madison;
and Slutty Girls Love Rocco 8 for Evil
Angel with Lula Boobs and Rocco
Siffredi. Asked about her dream sex
scene, she says, “I really enjoy rough
sex so my dream scene would have a
lot of spit, sloppy blowjobs and dirty
action. I really want to work with
James Deen, Manuel Ferrara and Toni
Ribas, and directors Axel Braun, Dana
Vespoli and Jules Jordan.”
Miller is a frequent and enthusiastic
traveler and chronicles her experiences
extensively on social media. She says,
“I consider myself an adrenalin junkie
and I’m addicted to being out of my
comfort zone. I like to go hiking, scuba
diving, and discover nature, but the
thing I love the most is traveling.”
One thing she likes about the adult
industry is “the freedom. I can travel
to all the places I’ve always wanted
to go while earning money doing
something I love.”

Jay Smooth: Continental Charm
Current Location: Los Angeles | Age: 33 | Height: 6-foot-3 | Weight: 205 | Hair: Brown | Eyes: Gray
Given his looks, it’s not surprising he works for the likes
of Babe.com, Fantasy Massage and Penthouse. A mainstream
model, Smooth got into the business with Penthouse Pet Layla
Sin. But it turns out he had another near brush with porn
earlier. “I was on the Metro train, the Red Line train—and I
had my headphones on, and a girl just approached me. ... Long
story short, she wanted to go out with me and she happened
to be a porn star. She’s no longer active in the industry. But
she wanted to introduce me to one agent in the industry and
this meeting didn’t go well. ... I basically didn’t open that door
then.”
With Layla Sin he started on “those college videos and
those amateur shoots. ... We performed with each other,
and then we performed separately. My beginnings were very
rough because I was thrown into very deep water; there
were interesting things happening. So, yeah, it took me a
while to kind of get a grasp of what’s going on and now I’m a
completely different person.”
Handsome, fit and self-
possessed, Jay Smooth lives
up to his moniker. A native of
Poland, he has been in the biz
for three years now. “It’s been a very
interesting experience. I was very lucky
during this time to be able to travel
a lot and work in very interesting
destinations around the world—mostly
for glamcore companies, because that’s
where I was pretty much thrown in
from the very beginning,” he says.
The biggest change in Smooth’s life has been in his
confidence level. “I know what to expect, I know exactly what
they wanna shoot; I also shoot custom videos so I know what
the customer wanna see. A lot of details, a lot of technicalities
that I’ve learned over time from getting experience, getting
good advice from the seasoned and older performers. I’m very
good friends with John Strong, for example. On a personal
level, he’s been in this business for a very, very long time. ...
I’m a very business-oriented person. I just want to do my job
to my best ability, respect my co-workers.”
Smooth says he’s worked for most companies, “but I would
like to work for some directors I have never worked for ... to

just keep building up the reputation and trying to do the best
work to my ability.” He’s even been known to offer to do a
scene for free if it’s someone he really wants to work with.
The well-groomed stud also gotten into the world of custom
videos. “There are fans that are very serious about this,” he
described. “They send me these scripts; they prepare very
detailed descriptions of everything and to an extent that is
unbelievably detailed. And also they pick the performers, and
go from there. So I’m taking it very seriously.
Asked about performers he enjoys working with, Smooth
said, “I’ve done so many scenes with Layla, but I’ve also had
good scenes with Skin Diamond, with Jade Nile—Aidra Fox
is one of my favorites to perform with. Heather Vahn—yeah,
there are quite a lot of good experiences. I definitely like to
work with people who are dedicated to this job, who treat this
work as something more than just a job. They are willing to
give the best of themselves.” When he works with someone
new, he always asks, “Are you here purely to make money or
you really just like what you do? Because it shows.”
Smooth said candidly that he doesn’t always enjoy “those
kind of scenes where you break in the girl into the industry”
because sometimes the performers are ill-suited for the job.
“Sometimes they shouldn’t be in this industry. They shouldn’t
even go that path. ... Even before the scene is released, that
girl is already done. Which is not a good thing. ... You can
feel if somebody’s trying to make a career out of it and have a
business plan, or if it is just a ride or experience.”
