Aria Giovanni
Career
Giovanni began modelling at the end of 1999 to help pay for junior college, where she was studying biochemistry, and was named Penthouse’s Pet of the Month for September 2000 roughly six months later. She appeared in the 2001 parody Survivors Exposed and the 2002 feature Justine, which AskMen later recommended as one of nine pornographic films women could enjoy. Playboy named her its online Model of the Day in June 2007, and in 2008 she appeared opposite Nathan Fillion in James Gunn’s web series PG Porn. In 2010, Complex magazine placed her on its list of the 50 Prettiest Porn Stars of All Time, the same year she drew an XBIZ nomination.
Signature: One of a small number of performers Complex actually placed on a "prettiest" list by name, a decade after her Penthouse Pet title — about as direct an external validation of this keyword’s premise as the record offers.
