Every year the adult industry is treated to a new batch of fresh starlets ready to grace your computer screens with their XXX prowess, and every year we’re delighted to discover these new girls and watch them grow in their porn careers. While there’s no shortage of girls clamoring for a chance to be ‘Best New Starlet’ during awards’ season, the established and successful stars we’ve cum to know and love sometimes step out of the limelight to forge a new path for themselves and make way for their successors. You can’t help but feel both happy and sad when you’ve discovered your favorite porn star is moving on from the world of adult film and starting a new chapter in her life. These are the stars who have chosen to move on this year. While we’re sad to see them go, we wish them all the best luck in their new endeavors!
Sara Luvv
Fans fell in luvv with petite and pretty Sara when she entered the adult industry in 2012 and rapidly rose to stardom, filming for studios like Digital Sin and Sweetheart Video. Sara’s scenes were notable for her perfect mix of voraciousness and sensuality, and her acting ability allowed her to seamlessly star in a variety of roles – from innocent virgin to street-savvy escort. In early 2017, Sara announced her intention to step away from the world of XXX and focus on her education. Some highlights of Sara’s successful career would undoubtedly be her award-winning role in Babysitting the Baumgartners, as well as meeting her partner, Girlsway director Bree Mills.
Morgan Lee
Stunning star Morgan Lee became popular for her exotic look and toned physique. She joined the industry in 2014, filming for top-tier studios like Tushy.com and Hard X. Morgan was known for her blowjob skills; her scene in Facialized 3 was nominated at the 2017 AVN Awards for “Best Oral Sex Scene.” She stopped filming in 2017 to pursue her dream of working in fitness.
Deanna Dare
Versatile Latina performer Deanna Dare said goodbye to the adult industry in October of this year in order to pursue more mainstream avenues of work.
Peta Jensen
Busty Brazzers star Peta Jensen is no stranger to retirement rumors, having already “retired” once before. While we keep our fingers crossed for her swift return, we have 50+ sizzling scenes to remember her incredible career by.
Cleo Vixen
We bid farewell to blonde cutie Cleo Vixen in 2017 as well, when the starlet announced via Twitter that while she had so many good memories, porn wasn’t her passion anymore.
Harley Jade
In her short time in the industry, Harley Jade rose to stardom with unforgettable anal scenes for Tushy.com and Hard X. Fans were disappointed to discover Harley suddenly deleted all of her social media midway through the year, but she’ll forever be remembered for her great scenes like the one in Bomb Ass White Booty 20.
Brooke Wylde
Another year, another great pair of natural tits we must sadly say goodbye to. Brooke Wylde and her incredible 36DD chest walked away from XXX this year. A regular star for studios like Pornstar Platinum and Digital Sin, Brooke’s talents are memorialized in her ever-popular scene from I Love My Sister’s Big Tits.
Chloe Foster
Chloe Foster began her career in the adult industry as a cam girl, making the switch to porn in 2013. Chloe appeared frequently in lesbian titles for Girlfriends Films as well as soft gonzo for Porn Pros.
Alli Rae
Alli Rae’s ethereal look and stellar scenes made her 3-year career in the industry one to remember. Raised in a conservative Christian household, Alli’s jaunt in the world of XXX gave her the opportunity to explore her sexual side in a way she hadn’t previously before… and explore she did! Before retiring, Alli managed to film a wide variety of content, including anal, BDSM, lesbian, interracial, and group sex scenes.
Rachele Richey
Curvaceous cutie Richele Richey announced via her Twitter that she was leaving adult film in 2017 in order to pursue mainstream acting. In August, Rachele posted pictures from the set of the new Bruce Willis movie, Reprisal, in which she was cast.
Aria Alexander
When Aria Alexander deleted her social media this past year, fans were saddened and stunned to see the Digital Playground star vanish without much of a trace or explanation. The raven-haired beauty disappeared from the industry at what could arguably be considered the height of her career, so fans hope she returns in the future.
Jodi Taylor
Last but certainly not least, another stunning blow to the industry was the loss of gorgeous girl-next-door Jodi Taylor, who maintains an active social media presence for her fans despite ceasing to film this past year. We’ll always remember Jodi’s sweet girl-girl scenes as well as her incredible gapes and gangbangs – she’s truly a star who could do it all.
If this list has you feeling misty-eyed over the talent that left us this year, rest assured that at least 25% of these performers will probably “come out of retirement” soon enough, because sometimes, just when you think you’re out of the industry…
