Jill Kassidy wants her fans to know
that she’s just getting started.
“I want to be in this for as long as I
can and make the most out of it,” says
Kassidy, the 22-year-old native of Dallas who is the
reigning AVN Best New Starlet.
The demand for America’s Porn Sweetheart only
increased this year on the heels of her breakout season
in 2017 that saw her perform a variety of sex scenes for
all the major studios.
“I definitely still get a lot of work. I don’t know if it’s
more. It’s always been pretty consistent,” says Kassidy,
who has been represented exclusively by LA Direct
Models since her debut in June 2016.
In fact, she says that girl/girl scenes have been the
majority of her bookings this summer.
“I feel like I’ve gotten booked a lot more for girl/girl
since I won,” Kassidy tells AVN. “I love the girl/girl stuff.
I’ve done so much this year.”
She points to her girl/girl orgy scene in Adam & Eve’s
Unleashed with Scarlett Sage, Honey Gold and Eliza
Jane as a recent highlight.
“That was a really fun one. That was my first orgy-
type scene. I love working with Scarlett. She’s super
energetic and fun. I’m really excited for that to come
out,” Kassidy adds.
She would still like to wait before moving into anal
“I love the girl/girl
stuff. I’ve done so
much this year.”
sex on camera—she hasn’t even tried it
in her personal life yet.
“I have the butt-plugs,” Kassidy
confesses. “I don’t really want to do that
myself. It seems like it would be painful.”
The former Starbucks barista shined as the lead
actress in the 2018 AVN Award-winning Best Drama, Half
His Age: A Teenage Tragedy, for Pure Taboo. But she has
yet to do another full feature movie despite being cast in
several scenes that involve acting.
Two, in particular, have been for Pure Taboo opposite
2018 Best Actor Tommy Pistol, a three-time winner of the
AVN Best Actor award.
“Oh my gosh, he’s my favorite that I’ve worked with for
acting wise,” Kassidy says. “He’s so fun and it’s so easy
to act crazy with him because he’s so crazy.”
In a sit-down with AVN last summer Kassidy listed
2016 AVN Female Performer of the Year Riley Reid as
someone she hoped to work with in the future. Consider
that mission accomplished.
“I worked with Riley Reid for Twistys. We did a girl/
girl together and it was really cool. I also did a scene with
her for her website with Melissa Moore as well. We were
supposed to be triplets and it was her New Year’s update
with Jean Val Jean. That was really glamorous. We had
sparkly makeup and we were pin-up girls. It was super
classy and pretty,” she says.
