Pornstars – Sunny Leone

Why is She famous

Though she’s appeared in the pages of countless men’s magazines, Sunny is best known for her stint as Penthouse’s 2003 Pet of the Year.

Sunny Leone Quote

” My family didn’t find out until I told them, which was when I won Penthouse Pet of the Year. They took it as well as I could have hoped. I am their daughter and they love me, so it was great when they didn’t disown me.”

Sex Appeal

Sunny Leone has a lot to offer fans that are sick of the same old homogenized look that seems omnipresent within the industry. Being drop-dead gorgeous certainly doesn’t hurt matters, nor does her ability to look completely sexy either in a skimpy outfit or in her birthday suit.

Success

Just two years after she started modeling, Sunny was named Penthouse Pet of the Month. Later, the magazine bestowed the Pet of the Year title on her — an award she clearly deserved. Additionally, Sunny has graced the pages of notable publications such as Cheri, Leg World and Club International.

Since starting her own website, Sunny has been able to reach out to her fans in a whole new way. She’s largely considered to be one of the most approachable adult stars out there, and it’s obvious that she has come to appreciate the impact her followers have had on her career.

Sunny Leone Biography

Sunny Leone was born on May 13, 1981, in Toronto, Canada. She spent the majority of her carefree and innocent childhood relishing the long Canadian winters, and would often devote entire days to outdoor pursuits, such as ice skating and building snowmen. Sunny established herself as a natural performer from an early age, trying her hand at everything from singing to dancing to acting. She was even something of a tomboy in her adolescence, showing a palpable affinity for a variety of different sports.

In 1996, when Sunny was just a teenager, her family pulled up stakes in Toronto and headed for the comparatively scorching landscape of California. Although it wasn’t exactly a smooth transition, Sunny was determined to make the best out of her new situation. To that end, Sunny enrolled in a local junior college after graduating from high school in 1999.

It was during one fateful English class that a fellow classmate mentioned that she should give modeling a try, and even provided Sunny with an agent’s phone number. That call led to an appointment with a photographer, and it was at that initial session that Sunny got her first taste of on-camera nudity. Initially reluctant, Sunny realized that posing nude could lead to a lucrative career in the business and allow her to travel all over the world.

Over the next couple of years, Sunny devoted herself full time to her burgeoning career as an erotic model, and it wasn’t long before the up-and-coming starlet became known as one of the hottest new faces in the industry. Sunny’s hard work and perseverance paid off in 2001 when she was named Penthouse Pet of the Month in March of that year. Appearances in a wide variety of well-known adult magazines followed, including High Society, Swank and Hustler, and Sunny soon found herself in demand for non-pornographic projects, like Ja Rule’s “Livin’ It Up” music video.

Having established herself as a force within the adult industry, Sunny decided to head back to school and begin taking courses in nursing (a field in which she hopes to eventually find a career). Sunny has no plans to abandon her work as a model/actress, however, and she starred in her own adult film in 2005, appropriately named Sunny.
