Pornstar: Lana Rhoades

Lana Rhoades (Chicago, September 6, 1996) is an American digital influencer and former pornographic actress. She has appeared in publications such as Hustler, Penthouse, and Playboy. Rhoades was raised by a single mother in a Chicago suburb with an older sister who suffered from schizophrenia. According to Rhoades, most of the family's attention was devoted to caring for her sister, leaving little love or guidance for her. She came to admire the glamorous lifestyle of Playboy models such as Anna Nicole Smith, who appeared on the TV series The Girls Next Door. According to Rhoades, she began using drugs with her first boyfriend and acted as an accomplice in several robberies. When she was 16, she was sentenced to juvenile detention until she was 21 at the Warrenville Juvenile Center. She was released on good behavior after a year, having obtained her GED certificate. After her release, she made her first foray into legal sex work, being a hostess at a Tilted Kilt restaurant and performing at a strip club.
