Stoya
Stoya is an American pornographic actress, writer and model. Stoya is original, outrageous, and all-natural. A carefree spirit that loves being the center of attention, she embodies a fun, friendly persona that fits seamlessly with Digital Playground's esteemed roster of contract stars. With striking dark features and porcelain skin, this tall and slender beauty has the ability to radiate a multitude of looks that can be sophisticated, romantic, sexy, and playfully cute. The only thing more erotic and intriguing than Stoya's appearance is her mind. After a brief stint in Hollywood, California, Stoya moved back to East Coast skyscrapers, preferring the brash, concrete reality of the East, to the 24/7 sand and glam of the West Coast. The move perfectly epitomizes Stoya's personality and appreciation for mechanized modernity. Not afraid to be unique, Stoya is completely uncompromising in her life and work. Stoya began professionally posing for pictures for a friend. That eventually led her to modelling and working for alt-erotic websites. One of the websites she had worked for asked if she was willing to do a softcore scene for a DVD they were putting out. Stoya claims that she discovered pornography through an interest in BDSM and via fetish newsgroups on the internet. She has stated that few adult films interested her and that she prefers those with artistic and fetish themes. Stoya was featured in two DVD productions for Razordolls, and she made a non-sex, cameo appearance in two Vivid Alt titles before being contacted by Digital Playground with a proposition to perform in a hardcore lesbian scene with Sophia Santi. The scene in question never happened, but, in August 2007, she met with several Digital Playground representatives and was asked if she would star in a pornographic movie with male talent. After careful consideration, Stoya agreed. In October 2007, Digital Playground signed her to an exclusive, three-year contract. Stoya is regarded as the company's first alt porn contract girl. In 2009, Stoya appeared in her first mainstream crossover project as Kamikazi Shegun 5000 in the award winning 48 Hour Film Project "The Kingpin of Pain". In April 2013, Stoya was featured in a Village Voice cover story issue profiling her career as well as her life in New York City. Even though Stoya was under exclusive contract with Digital Playground, Evil Angel director John Stagliano received "special permission" in 2013 to cast her in the sequel for the adult film series Voracious. As of 2014, she left Digital Playground and is now focusing her career on directing. She is financing her first film to be shot in February 2014. Stoya also writes for Vice, has written for The New York Times and Esquire, and blogged for XCritic.
