Fresh Faces: Kendra Cole

This article originally ran in the July 2016 issue of AVn magazine. See the digital edition here. Hometown: Milton, Wisconsin | Age: 20 | Height: 5-foot-6 | Weight: 100 pounds | Hair: Brown | Eyes: Brown Back home in Wisconsin, Kendra Cole was a CMA, a certified nursing assistant (“Pretty much does everything a nurse does except hand out most medications”) doing home care assistance and “I was doing nude modeling on the side when I was told about shooting porn. I thought about it for a while, and decided a normal life was not for me. ‘Hello, sex industry, I’m home.’” She says that she likes “how open and kind everyone generally is. It’s fun and an awesome way to properly experiment and experience new things in a safe place.” Her best scene so far, she says, is with Erik Everhard for Digital Sin’s I Seduced My Brother: “I was really inexperienced when I joined porn. In Wisconsin, I wasn’t picking suitable mates, I guess, because they all had either small penises or sucked in bed. I didn’t even like oral on myself before that scene. Erik was so intense I had to tell him ‘I can’t take any more.’ It was just too good. I realized it’s all about the skill level. I’d always loved giving oral, and now that I love receiving.” To Cole, the AVN Expo is “my favorite thing of the whole year. It’s an awesome experience. In porn, you don’t get slut-shaming, all that weird stuff that normal people have to worry about. Wearing a dress that’s too short and getting talked shit to? That doesn’t happen. It’s like ‘I can see her nipples. You go, girl!’ It’s a whole thing of empowerment. You see the crazy BDSM people, the vanilla people. It’s great. It’s right around my birthday, it’s like a present for me.” She says she would like to do a girl/girl scene for Girlfriends Films and has Christiana Cinn. Keiran Lee, A.J. Applegate, Dani Daniels and Seth Gamble on her to-do list. “I want to show people what I can do. I’m adorably awesome and people need to observe my new skills. I once had a deep throating scene and I didn’t even know what deep throating was. Now I can do it. I like having a dick down my throat. ... “I’m a down and dirty bitch,” she adds with a giggle. Her words to live by: “Be stronger than your excuses.” Follow her on Twitter and Instagram: KendraColeXXX.
