Evan Stone

Career

Stone worked as an exotic dancer for a decade before entering the industry in 1997, winning AVN Male Performer of the Year three times and headlining the big-budget Pirates films — among the most expensive adult productions ever made. CNBC named him in 2011 as the only man among the twelve most popular adult performers. He made his directorial debut in 2011 and ran unsuccessfully as a Republican candidate in the 2023 primary for Nevada’s 1st Congressional District.

Signature: Headlined the highest-budget productions the industry has attempted, and is one of very few performers to have stood for public office afterwards.
