“I’m glad that I was never really someone who liked to blend in.”
The Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-based retail authority pointed to one of Blake’s first “big moments”—her December 2020 Penthouse Pet of the Month spread.
“She’s a cover girl in the purest sense, the sort of performer who makes you walk across a room, pick up a magazine, and buy it,” the Adult Empire rep continued.
Blossom, who was born in California and raised in Arizona, says no matter what the job may be, once she commits, she always gives maximum effort. Her porn career is no exception.
“I feel like I’ve been a try hard at everything. I think it just really started when I was making the decision to do porn in the first place,” Blossom explains. “I didn’t want anyone to look at me and say she’s lesser than me because she does porn and she has an OnlyFans and she’s doing all this inappropriate stuff.
“I could counter that I’ve made this much so far. This is what I’ve gained since I started in the industry... the DVDs, the sponsorships, the articles—all this. ... Maybe it’s a defense mechanism, that if I work really, really hard I can prove to everyone else that I deserve to have a seat at the table, instead of being pushed to the back because I’m a little slut.”
If her first two years are any indication, Blake better get used to being in the front.
It could already be argued that she has nothing left to prove with the way she has built a brand that is synonymous with quality hardcore. She studied iconic stars such as Angela White and Jenna Jameson and the way they handle their business.
“Especially Angela,” Blake says. “She’s definitely given me a lot of words of encouragement in different areas. ... I love her.”
The feeling is mutual, White says.
The three-time AVN Female Performer of the Year tangled with Blossom and three-time AVN Male Performer of the Year Mick Blue for Angela Loves Threesomes 3, which White produced and directed for her own studio, AGW Entertainment.
“Blake has all the characteristics of a top performer: a passion for sex; a strong work ethic; and a beautiful physique,” White tells AVN. “I was incredibly impressed with her professionalism. Blake has a clear understanding of her brand and what she wants to achieve in the industry.”
Blossom says “being in adult has helped me become the person I really am on the inside.” “I’m glad I made the decision to be a businesswoman and really be a beacon of female empowerment,” Blake says. “... I’m glad that I was never really someone who liked to blend in.
I’ve always liked being different. I like standing out. I like doing things my own way.”
