Bonnie Rotten
Career
Rotten entered the industry in early 2012, at eighteen, as a fetish model and feature dancer. Two years later she became the first performer from the alt or tattooed end of the business to take AVN Female Performer of the Year, and in January 2014 she launched her own production company, Mental Beauty, Inc., directing for Girlfriends Films and Digital Playground. She released a product line with Pipedream in 2015, ran a tattoo shop between 2017 and 2018 and retired from performing in 2020. She appeared in The Weeknd’s Kiss Land video in 2013.
Signature: Proof that the category’s breakout window is not only for the girl-next-door marketing lane — she won the industry’s top female title on a heavily tattooed, explicitly alt persona.
