“I think I have changed a lot. I’ve figured out what I
am OK with, what I’m not OK with, what I like as a
performer, what I like in sex…”
But finding enjoyment in whatever she’s doing has never been hard for Youngs. In fact, she
may have been having a little too much fun job hopping before porn.
She recalls working as a janitor at the mall, as a hostess at Applebee’s, serving pretzels at
Auntie Anne’s, making drinks at Smoothie King and slinging pancakes at IHOP.
“I honestly could not keep a job before this,” Youngs jokes, noting that she probably had her
job at IHOP the longest—about six months.
Soon after her 18th birthday in January 2020, she wanted to try stripping at a topless club
in Austin.
“And I did it for a couple months and then the pandemic hit,” Angel says.
At some point during the early months of the nationwide shutdown, she started her OnlyFans,
which to this day is thriving. And in April 2020 she made a solo appearance on FTV Girls,
driving around the Phoenix area in various states of nakedness while the streets were empty.
While she considers her official start in the business to be more like September 2020, what
hasn’t changed from Day One is her positive attitude.
“It’s so different now, but it’s the same,” Youngs tells AVN. “I love my job. I love performing. I
love the act of doing a scene and that has always stayed the same, but obviously it is different.
“I was just ready to do anything and everything and I was so like, oh my God, porn! All this
new money that I’m getting that I’ve never gotten before.
“Versus now, I’ve gotten that money for some time now and I’m actually saving it and making
money on top of the money rather than just like fucking it off. So it’s more of a mature mindset
towards it.
“And it’s also about protecting my peace when it comes to certain scenes.”
Born in Manhattan, N.Y., and raised in Austin, Angel tells AVN she moved back to New York
in October.
“I was in LA [for two years] and then I moved back to Texas for a year and then I met my
boyfriend who used to do porn and he’s from New York and we got a place together,” she
explains. “It all happened very fast. My lease was up in October and I was like let’s get it going.
“I’m loving it. It’s cold as fuck, but I do enjoy being really close to mountains to snowboard.
I’ve been trying to snowboard more.”
Youngs at the time of this interview expressed gratitude for being nominated for the top
performing award in adult for the second straight year.
