Performer Nicole Clitman Passes Away

LOS ANGELES—Adult performer Nicole Clitman passed away on Tuesday in Maryland, according to the Herald & Review in her hometown of Decatur, Illinois. She was 27.  Clitman made her porn debut in May 2016, performing in about 35 titles over the course of the next two years—with just a handful of credits coming in 2018. According to IAFD.com, her major studio credits included eight scenes for Evil Angel; three each for Girlfriends Films and Digital Playground; and additional appearances for high-profile sites such as Tushy and Jules Jordan Video, among others. A lifelong performer who grew up south of Chicago, Clitman traveled the country singing for a non-profit organization before entering the porn industry. She spent four years in Pennsylvania touring VA medical centers and veterans’ homes to perform for military veterans. A music major at Milliken University in Decatur with a minor in vocal performance, Clitman sang opera and also played the flute for eight years. She came up with her memorable stage name on her first porn shoot—in Florida for Reality Kings—when someone on set told her she looked like Nicole Kidman.
