“I wasn’t retired, I was just hibernating.”
Leah Gotti tells AVN this time she is coming with a game plan.
The Texas native, who stepped away from adult in 2016 after a whirlwind debut
that saw her perform in dozens of sex scenes for several major studios, says she is
making a gradual return with her sights set on producing and owning her product.
“My mindset is to just take it really slow and go with the fl ow of things,” Gotti
says. “I don’t really want to force anything. Last time I just jumped into things and
I didn’t really have any guidance.”
The 23-year-old, who resides in Dallas, says she’s in the process of starting her
own production company as she eases back into adult work this year.
“I want to shoot stuff that’s really natural and pretty—not forced—with real orgasms
and people who are genuinely excited to be there,” Gotti explains. “And I’m working
with a team of people that aren’t from the adult world. They’re all from very diff erent
walks of life. That’s what makes it so special. They all have diff erent outlooks on
what real sex is.”
She adds, “I wasn’t retired, I was just hibernating.”
Gotti intends to place her content on DVD in addition to her upcoming offi cial
website, LoveLeahGotti.com—and hopes to launch with her fi rst DVD in the summer
of 2021.
The popular performer reveals she will be open to doing occasional scenes for
companies other than her own, but she will be selective—and this time she’ll book
her own work.
Even though Gotti stopped performing—and posting on social media—
in 2016 after about 100 scenes in her fi rst eight-plus months in adult, her fanfare
from the #GottiGang hasn’t waned. In fact, it’s become apparent the demand for
new Leah Gotti content is stronger than ever.
“I love my fans,” Gotti says. “I’ve always been very interactive online. … I’ve
developed really good friendships with a lot of my fans. They tell me interesting
things. … My interaction with my fans is like my counseling. It makes me laugh and
they teach me things about their cultures from around the world.”
