“I’m excited to spend this period of my life here and have the option of doing what I do.”
“Besides wanting to hire a good performer, people also want what I call the Riley Reid syndrome. They want to hire the girl that has good vibes on the set.
“And as I used to always say, she’s a dirty, filthy whore in all the right ways—and I mean that in the most loving way possible.”
Bond made her porn debut in February 2019, when she traveled to L.A. to shoot for AVN Hall of Fame producer/director Jules Jordan, whom she had been talking to on Instagram for more than a year.
During that first trip she stayed for two months, shooting only for Jordan. She did her first-ever sex scene with the six-time AVN Male Performer of the Year Manuel Ferrara in a movie called Thick for Jules Jordan Video.
By the end of 2019 Bond had made two trips to California and had accumulated more than 30 credits—and word had gotten around that she was someone with enormous potential.
“I haven’t changed as a performer,” Savannah says. “I may have evolved but it’s all been pretty natural. I didn’t really change anything drastic. Although I critique myself, I think it’s important to always be yourself. That’s what is going to bring you longevity.”
AVN Hall of Fame producer/director Jonni Darkko knows Bond’s tendencies as well as anyone. He called the shots for her first star showcase, Savannah Bond Beach Bikini Slut, a Darkko Productions/Evil Angel release that led to her first AVN Award in January for Best Blowbang Scene. Bond devoured Air Thugger, Alex Jones, Alex Mack, Lucas Frost and Scotty P. on her way to AVN gold.
“She’s a blast to have on set,” Darkko tells AVN. “She always comes in and kills it. She’s always put-together and looks amazing and pretty open to anything.
“And we’re going to see a lot more of her. She’s just now really hitting her stride. She’s one of a kind. There is no one that looks like her, not even close. She’s amazingly beautiful and just fun to shoot.”
Bond navigated the pandemic with relative ease, maintaining her social media presence and posting new hardcore updates with fellow Australian performers on her OnlyFans while she was living in Queensland, where she moved from Melbourne.
“I enjoyed the Covid period. I didn’t mind it,” Savannah recalls. “It was like a break. I didn’t find it hard.
“I had been planning to get back to the U.S. as soon as I could but I was waiting for the border to open between Australia and the U.S. I was nervous because I was moving countries by myself. I wouldn’t say it was overwhelming—I’m pretty laid back—but it was a lot to do by myself. It was exciting because I waited all year to get back.
