PUBLISHER’S
NOTE
If the 1970s gave rise to the Golden Age of Porn, the 2020s may someday be
remembered as another defining era—that of the performer.
Thanks in part to a variety of social media platforms that provide vehicles for
performers to reach a global audience in a matter of seconds, it’s the performers
who are driving the conversation all day, every day.
These talented creators—such as our July cover girl Emma Hix—who enjoy
sharing parts of their lives off the set and making their own naughty content are
gaining fans and followers en masse.
Our AVN Star Hix calls her life “an open book”—and it’s why her fans absolutely
love her—not to mention her sizzling performances. Now a homeowner at 22, it
wasn’t that long ago that the native of British Columbia was clocking in at a well-
known fast food joint.
We think Emma is a shining example of how today’s performers can take charge
of their careers and forge their own paths.
Speaking of which, in this issue we’ve also spotlighted a special career milestone
for adult star Jenna Foxx, who wrote and performed in A Girl Like Me: A Jenna Foxx
Story, exclusively for Adult Time’s PureTaboo.com.
Foxx conceived the storyline for the scene, which is part of PureTaboo’s continuing
series that showcases adult performers creating their own episodes. The popular
Canadian-born performer worked as an exotic dancer in Miami before making her
adult industry debut in 2015.
We hope you enjoy the issue.
