They may no longer be performing but they are never forgotten. For most of us, once in a while, we go back to these babes. But for most of us… the newer ones cannot satisfy our imagination and we ALWAYS search for them every time we open our fave porn sites. Sometimes hoping that we will see content we’ve never seen before. Or if by some miracle, they have new ones.
And so we came up with this listicle for you. A nostalgic one you can bookmark as a reference for when you get extremely horny (like you’ve always been).
Hanna Hilton
Hanna Hilton got two FAME Award nominations in 2009 and 2010, as well as one AVN Award nomination in 2010. She was photographed as Penthouse magazine’s Pet of the Month in 2006, as well as Twistys Treat of the Month in November of the same year.
Hanna is a small-town girl who was a high school cheerleader and worked part-time at Dairy Queen. She began modeling after speaking with the photographer who took her high school senior shots, focusing primarily on lingerie and swimsuits. After being discovered online by an agent, she relocated to Los Angeles in 2006 to pursue a career in pornography. AJ Bailey (another super hot pornstar) helped Hanna in choosing her surname “Hilton”.
Iggy Amore
Who can forget this one? Before becoming an ultimate wet dream subject, Iggy Amore worked as a waitress in a small town with her best friend Molly Manson (another adult film star) before deciding to resign and relocate to California to pursue pornography professions. The two made their way to New Sensations, where they were quickly cast for upcoming projects. Iggy began her career in 2015 and has been in several pornographic films.
Iggy is also a fan of tattoos, with a bird on her left shoulder blade, a feather with the inscription “Believe and Faith” on the right side of her stomach, and a cross on the back of her neck.

Abby Lee Brazil
Like you, I can’t believe she’s already retired. And to think it was seven years ago… This Brazilian beauty started her adult career in 2014 when she was 27. Her toned body and natural assets were the key components to her success.
Abby Lee Brazil‘s model agency profile indicates that she is available to film any type of scene, including double penetration, anal, and squirting. She was featured in the March 2015 issue of Hustler Magazine, and she was also named Penthouse Pet of the Month in February this year. In 2016, she received her first nominations for XBIZ and AVN Awards.
Ashlynn Brooke
This retired adult film actress also performs as an exotic dancer and model. Ashlynn Brooke has appeared in nearly a hundred adult films and videos. She debuted as an adult model and has appeared on the covers of several magazines. She later worked as a stripper before becoming a full-time performer in 2006. In 2007, she signed a contract with New Sensations/Digital Sin as their exclusive artist. Over the next few years, she rose to become one of the industry’s most popular figures. She was all over and one just couldn’t get enough of her.
Her directorial debut occurred in 2009. She retired a year later, following the birth of her first child. Brooke has since been preoccupied with parenting her children, blogging, and operating a herbal business.
Peta Jensen
I remember a friend telling me to check her out almost 10 years ago. Man, how time flies as she is retired now. Peta Jensen began her career in the adult entertainment industry by dancing at strip clubs. Her first hardcore shot took place on September 8, 2014, when she was approached by a talent scout while dancing at a club.
Peta has appeared in X-rated films for several famous firms, including Digital Sin, Wicked Pictures, Bang Productions, Pure Play Media, and Jules Jordan Video. She has also worked on adult websites including Brazzers, BangBros, and Naughty America.
Lily Carter
She began her career in 2010 as a webcam model who made solo videos. Her initial stage name was Navaeh. Lynda Carter, the actress who played Wonder Woman on television in 1975, inspired her present pornographic alias. Lily soon expanded into girl-girl stuff and then boy-girl sequences.
Lily Carter stands about 5 feet and 3 inches tall, weighs no more than 107 pounds, and measures 32B-26-36 from her natural breasts to that sinful ass. She has a few stars tattooed on her hips but no piercings. She earned the AVN and XRCO awards for ‘Best Actress’ in 2013, and she has worked with networks including Team Skeet, Reality Kings, New Sensations, Porn Pros, Naughty America, Fame Digital, Dogfart, Brazzers, 21 Sextury, Band Danger, and Bang Bros. Her first audition was for Elegant Angel’s ‘Best New Starlets 2012’.
Abella Anderson
Abella Anderson is a Cuban-American spokesmodel and former pornographic actress. In her brief career, she has acted in over 30 pornographic films and was named Best New Starlet at the Night Movies Awards in 2011. In addition to working with major studios such as Jules Jordan and BangBros, she has posed for some of the most well-known magazines.
Abella Anderson began her career in 2007, and in a relatively short amount of time, she has had a significant impact on the pornography business and adult entertainment. Bella was nominated for the AVN Award for Best New Starlet in 2012. Complex Magazine ranked her eighth on their list of the 100 Hottest Pornstars (for 2011) and projected she would be number one in 2012. Outside of the porn industry, Abella Anderson is the official spokesperson for Eye Candy, a lingerie firm. Abella Anderson appears in the short film Clapping for the Wrong Reasons by Childish Gambino in August 2013. In November of that year, she appeared in the lyric video for Gambino’s song “3005”.
Rachel Roxxx
This babe who needs to make a comeback is of mixed French, Welsh, Irish, and German descent. Rachel Roxxx worked at a Hooters restaurant in Texas before becoming involved in the adult entertainment industry, when a high school classmate suggested she try porn.
Rachel began participating in explicit hardcore films in January 2007, when she was 23 years old. In 2009, she was nominated for the AVN Award for Best All-Girl Group Sex Scene. In 2011, she garnered three further AVN Award nominations, including Best POV Sex Scene, Best Group Sex Scene, and Unsung Starlet of the Year.
Remy La Croix
This AVN-award-winning adult film star who started in the industry in December of 2011 should really grace all one more time. At sixteen, she started working at a neighborhood grocery store. Prior to entering the adult entertainment industry in December 2011, Remy was an amateur specialty dancer who performed fire dancing, aerial silks, and hula-hooping at Burning Man and numerous music festivals.
In mid-2012, Remy La Croix took a hiatus from porn but eventually returned to performing in November 2012 (she retried permanently after a couple of years though). She won both the AVN and XRCO Awards for Best New Starlet in 2013.
Lisa Ann
Lisa Ann is well-known around the world for her 20+ years of success in the adult industry. This babe startled the world in December 2014 when she announced her retirement via a handwritten note on her Facebook page. Her retirement was prompted by her recent success with SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio, where she landed her first show, Lisa Ann Does Fantasy, which covers fantasy sports.
Lisa Ann’s autobiography The Life was launched after a full year of retirement and endless hours of writing. The Life is a candid account of what it was like to live in the clear heels of an adult star. She retired in 1997 and made a comeback in 2006. Then she returned to filming in 2019 but retired again during the pandemic.
Anna Bell Peaks
Before becoming an award-winning adult film performer, she earned a Masters Degree in Accounting and became a Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Working as a CPA required Anna to spend the majority of her income repaying college loans. She began working part-time as a webcam model after becoming weary of the constant payouts she received from her CPA job. Anna, like many other adult entertainers of the decade, was discovered and given work in the adult film industry through her webcam modeling.
Anna Bell Peaks, a 5′ 6″ magenta-haired and shapely model, made her debut in 2015 for companies and studios such as BangBros, Pure Mature, Wicked Pictures, New Sensations, PornPros, Burning Angel, Dogfart Network, Brazzers, Evil Angel, Digital Sin, Digital Playground, Zero Tolerance, and Elegant Angel.
Bree Olson
Bree Olson lived with Charlie Sheen for a spell as one of his “goddesses” before retiring from the adult entertainment industry in 2011 at the age of 25.
In November 2006, she began doing intense X-rated porn. She signed a one-year contract with Adam & Eve Productions in 2007 and was Twistys’ Treat of the Month in June 2007. Bree was the Pet of the Month in the March 2008 issue of “Penthouse,” and she graced the cover of the March 2008 UK edition of “Hustler.” She has also been featured in such men’s magazines as “Club,” “Rockstar,” and “Barely Legal.” In 2008, she won an AVN Award for Best New Starlet, and the following year, she won another AVN Award for Best New Web Starlet.
Adriana Chechik
Oh, yes… we want this babe back! This green-eyed beauty began appearing in explicit hardcore films in 2013. Adriana Chechik has appeared in X-rated films for 3rd Degree, Lethal Hardcore, and New Sensations, among other significant productions. She was featured in Cosmopolitan magazine’s 2014 issue, and she also appeared on Howard Stern’s show that same year.
Trivia: Adriana was a biochemistry student at Drexel University, and she confesses she was always a nerd. She lost her virginity at the age of 18, which is relatively late by pornographic standards.
Leah Gotti
And the beautiful (and we do mean BEAUTIFUL) Leah Gotti should really make a comeback. Leah was raised in a strict home. Growing up, she was the wrestling team captain, played varsity softball, and ran varsity track throughout high school. Leah graduated from high school early at the age of sixteen and went on to college on a wrestling scholarship shortly after turning seventeen, majoring in biotechnology and minoring in engineering.
While still in college, Gotti began hosting events for the popular nightclub Dallas Entourage; it was at one of these events that the owner of all the Crown Plazas asked Leah to host a party for him that turned out to be an Exxxotica Convention, where she was persuaded to compete in the final round of the Miss Exxxotica competition as a joke and eventually won it. Leah has worked for several famous firms and adult websites, including Mofos, Tushy, Met-Art, Blacked, Digital Sin, FM Concepts, Evil Angel, Naughty America, and Jules Jordan Video.
To keep her physique strong and toned, she works out with wrestling and CrossFit. Aside from that, she conducts weight training (for her chest exclusively). Oh, and she loves fishing.
Jenna Jameson
And here’s another legend that we’d want to see return. Jenna Jameson, although being retired for quite some time, is still one of the most prominent adult actors in the industry today. She studied ballet when she was younger, but stripping set her on her path to superstardom. Dancing led to nude modeling, and by her 20th birthday, she had appeared in dozens of major men’s magazines, including Penthouse, Hustler, High Society, and Cheri.
A visit to a pornographic set aroused her interest in a hardcore profession, and Wicked Pictures signed her to an exclusive contract following a bidding battle. Jenna quickly rose to prominence as the most popular young starlet. She soared to the top of the pornography heap, winning an unprecedented triple crown in 1996 with the XRCO Best New Starlet, F.O.X.E. Video Vixen, and AVN Best New Starlet awards. Jenna has recently branched out into more popular productions, including a cameo in Howard Stern’s Private Parts (1997).
Jenna Haze
Jenna Haze, who joined the industry in 2001, has become one of its most famous personalities, earning numerous honors. She discovered she was bisexual at the age of six, and her interest in sex blossomed from there. She grew up as a self-described “teacher’s pet” and gradually became rebellious. Jenna dropped out of high school at the age of 15 and was homeschooled until she graduated. After a succession of odd jobs and a day of stripping, she met actor/director Craven Moorehead, who recruited her for his film.
In 2002, she acquired a deal with Jill Kelly Productions, where she worked virtually exclusively with women. In 2005, she became a free agent and resumed working with guys. In 2009, she founded Jennaration X Studios to create and direct her own adult-oriented content. She announced her retirement from acting in 2012, however, she still works behind the camera.
Sunny Leone
You might be living under a rock if you don’t know who Sunny Leone is. This actress is of Indian descent and was born in Canada. Before joining Bollywood, she was an actor, writer, and producer in the American adult film industry. She currently works primarily in Bollywood, appearing in a number of films and music videos.
Her birth name is Karenjit Kaur Vohra. She began working for Penthouse magazine under the stage name Sunny Leone. Sunny Leone debuted in the adult film industry in 2005 and quickly rose to become one of the world’s most successful pornstars. Sunny traveled to India in 2011 to appear on the reality TV show Bigg Boss. It was there that her fate turned, and she was offered the main role in an upcoming sensual thriller, Jism 2. A documentary named Mostly Sunny (2016) was launched at the Toronto International Film Festival, chronicling her dramatic climb from pornstar to Bollywood celebrity.
Sasha Grey
Of course, some of you will expect Sasha to be number one. But we decided to put her on the second spot as we can’t really do a tie here.
Sasha Grey rose to prominence as one of the most notorious adult film stars in recent history; yet, she left her old career in 2009 at the age of 21 with no regrets. She went on to star in HBO’s Entourage, create the photo book NEÜ SEX, and DJ globally. In 2013, she released her first novel, the widely acclaimed The Juliette Society, in 25 countries. She now regularly tours internationally, as an artist, author, actress, and DJ.
Tera Patrick
Our number one is this all-time favorite. We simply hope she will do it one more time. Only one more scene. It doesn’t have to be that long. This pornstar/glamour model was named ‘Penthouse Pet of the Month’ in February 2000. In 2002, she came in second place for the ‘Penthouse Pet of the Year’ award.
Tera Patrick began her modeling career at the age of 14, when she was discovered by the ‘Morning Sun’ and relocated to Tokyo. She returned to the United States at the age of 16 and studied microbiology. Patrick turned down a job opportunity as a nurse in favor of pursuing a career in modeling. She went on to appear in a number of popular men’s magazines. She made her adult film debut in 1999 with the Bondage and Domination videos but quickly moved on to mainstream adult films. Patrick quickly moved to the top with her stunning physique. She finished second in Complex magazine’s 2011 list of top adult cinema stars. Tera Patrick stopped starring in pornographic films in 2008.
