LOS ANGELES—Cassidy Luxe reveals that she knew that sex work would be in her future long before she started. “I’ve always known from a young age that I would become a sex worker,” Luxe admits. “I didn’t know where I would end up exactly, but ‘porn star’ and ‘sex symbol’ always meant a lot to me.” Fed up with her job in the corporate world, Luxe started her adult journey doing solo work on OnlyFans and stripping. When she moved to Florida from her native Pennsylvania in 2021, her neighbor was veteran performer Shay Fox. “We became really good friends, and she guided me into the industry after I had expressed my interest in pursuing a porn career to her!” says Luxe, who shot her first pro scene in April 2022 and since has amassed about 100 credits for various producers. The self-described “calm, free-spirited, adaptable and bubbly” performer says she heard about her agency Hussie Models early on in her career. "We built a friendship through work, and over time I asked for representation when I was looking to switch up gears in my current professional path,” Cassidy explains. Luxe says one of her top performances so far without question is her first Evil Angel scene for Francesca Le and Mark Wood’s LeWood Productions, which she calls “my absolute baby.” “That scene provided me with my first major anal debut, which really inspired me to perform anal regularly,” Cassidy says. “I was also featured on the Anal Craving MILFs Vol. 9 DVD, which is my first DVD and cover!” She also loves her first Naughty America scene for the “My Friends Hot Mom” line with Johnny Love. “That was my first major scripted scene, and I absolutely loved the role-playing/acting!” Cassidy says, adding that her style of performing is “pretty high-energy, very loud, not crazy extreme, but not vanilla, and slightly sloppy!” “I like to think of my style as rough and passionate,” she says. Cassidy also has 2023 credits for Reality Kings, Perv City, Mike Adriano, TabooHeat, SeeHimFuck and CherryPimps, among others. She says what she loves most about performing is “that I can essentially be myself and make a living off of who I am.” “I do best going through life at my own pace, and being in this industry really helps give me that work and personal life balance,” Luxe reasons. “I also love to travel, and that’s another perk of doing this type of work!” Born in Easton, Pa., and raised in Nazareth—neighboring towns north of Philadelphia—Luxe worked as an account coordinator for a national animal supply distribution company before adult. “Basically, I would qualify small businesses that would show interest in becoming a customer of ours,” she says, explaining that the job just “wasn’t for me.” “I don’t do well with structure and can’t tolerate a job that pays me every two weeks, dictating my personal life. I actually put myself in therapy to help me cope with the stress of my corporate job." Now when she’s not working, she enjoys getting out of town and trying something new. “I love Disney, so I love going to the parks as much as possible!” Cassidy says. “I’m also a foodie and love to check out new food spots.” Cassidy tells AVN her first tattoo was a Sailor Moon wand on her right forearm. “I have no idea why I chose that, but I did!” she says. “Most of my tattoos all go together at this point, but I have 15 to 20 individual pieces. “My favorite is my stomach because it was the most painful, and I got through it! The pain was the worst I have probably ever felt, and somehow I was actually able to tolerate it, so for that alone, I have to love that piece the most! I think it’s a pretty unique design for the location, too!” As she considers her next move, she knows whatever it is, it will involve “a lot more growth!” “I definitely have a few things on my work bucket list that I look forward to checking off,” Cassidy says.
