Sitting in a stylish black dress, with three-inch heels and impeccable makeup that shows off her
green eyes, 24-year-old Victoria Grant cuts quite the figure as she eases herself back in her chair.
It’s her first interview at AVN, but the Akron, Ohio native is all smiles and eager to share her
story that took her from a restless adolescent trying to fit in at school to a striking trans starlet
who is on the rise.
“I grew up in an Arab family. My family is from the Middle East. So it was very interesting,” she
recalled. “Being trans was a little difficult and so was figuring out who I was. I always liked sex
so, I was always the problem child.”
Playing tennis and performing musical theater was natural for Grant who always knew she was
a female in her male body.
“I remember being very small and putting a towel on my head, wearing heels and pretending it
was hair and then sneaking in my mom’s room when she wasn’t home and trying on her clothes,”
she said. “And I started growing up and I looked like a very masculine man… and looked like a
hot boy and my family loved that…and I really played into it and was trying to date girls and try
to be masculine, but I was very sad.”
By the time she went to college in New York and finally found others who were trans, she began
to realize she needed to transition to female. As she began her career as a male model, things
began taking off, so she hesitated transitioning.
“I was confused. I was the face of products and occasionally, I was in music videos as a male
model. I was constantly auditioning for musicals, you know right out of school, auditioning for
commercials, Netflix shows, all as a man.”
But as she finally took the plunge and began her first of many surgeries to transition, she
attended last year’s Trans Erotica Awards where she found acceptance and positivity. “I felt so
included to be in a room full of people who not only were all trans, but all loved to have sex!” she
explained. “And it was such a beautiful thing. And then I met a director, Buddy Wood and he
works for Grooby.com and he was the one who gave me my first job. And I remember leaving
and I felt so exhilarated and just felt so happy.”
Soon, Grant found herself on a Grooby set sharing her sensuality while learning the ropes from
Wood and fellow cast members.
“I just remember really enjoying it. It was a VR scene and I remember being really nervous and
they had me back two days later and I was like there’s nothing to be nervous about. My dick is
huge and I’m pretty and was feeling really confident about myself.”
Being around like-minded people who enjoyed her easy-going demeanor was a big plus for
Grant at her first shoot.
“Working with Grooby is very easy because there’s just one person in the room. Working with
Trans Angels and TransSensual and any other studio is a little more intimidating. I do like to be
watched though so that experience was very easy.”
She would soon go on to work for GenderX, TransAngels, Transdaylight.com, Kink.com and
others while performing opposite cis women, men and other trans performers.
“My first two scenes were with the same man, Chris Epic, and I bottomed. I don’t think I worked
with a trans person until a few scenes in,” she recalled. “The first few were men. And then I
started to get comfortable speaking up and telling people who I liked and I was like, ‘I like to top
and I like to have sex with girls.’ And once they started figuring out that I could do those things,
then I started to, you know, getting booked with cis women all the time and getting booked with
trans women.”
As for her most memorable scene, Grant was quick to point out her pairing with Pierce Paris
for Kink.com. “I was inside the actual dungeon that I would remember from watching porn, so
that was pretty cool,” she exclaimed. “I was thinking this is insane!”
