Born and raised in Fairbanks, Alaska, Chanel Preston has mixed English, German and Spanish heritage. Growing up in Alaska, Chanel Preston became skilled at snowboarding and snow machining. In fact, Chanel has mentioned in previous interviews that her family had seven snow machines which enabled her to explore the great outdoors.

As well as her outdoor interests Chanel Preston has always been a natural born performer and when asked about her early childhood within her March 2010 AVN: Fresh Off The Bus interview Chanel Preston expressed that;

I grew up acting. I was like the little girl that controlled everything. I was in elementary school writing plays for all my friends. ‘OK, now let’s get together and act this out during recess…I did a lot of Shakespeare theatre and made my mother put me in any drama-related programs whatsoever. … So I was like I’m pretty sure I can still act so I’m sure I can do this”.

You may not believe it but Chanel Preston was actually part of her school’s mixed wrestling team. In her junior high school wrestling years Chanel Preston even won a takedown tournament! Chanel Preston explained within her December 2013 Adult DVD Talk interview how;

“I was just normal and down-to-earth. Even when I was younger, I just had guy friends. They always liked me and hung out with me so I always got attention. (laughs)…In my school, there were 3 girl wrestlers on the team and we would just wrestle boys. It was sort of unfair because a guy that weighs the same as us would be much stronger. (laughs) The guys could get to a pretty low body fat percentage and a female can’t. So we were only allowed to be at 20% body fat where a guy could be at 5% or something.  So it was unfair but that doesn’t mean we didn’t win. (laughs) It was fun and I liked it because it was challenging physically. It’s a pretty tough sport and they really condition you”.

Always eager to experiment with new experiences, Chanel Preston dabbled in a variety of extracurricular activities ranging from swimming, community theatre and piano recitals to playing the trumpet, painting and partying! Chanel Preston divulged within her AVN: Fresh Off The Bus interview that;

I’ll be honest. I was kind of stoner. I liked to party a lot. But I got into some trouble. So by the time I got into my junior year I had straightened up and I was just normal going to school, working. But before that I was a stoner, party girl. But yeah I just wanted to have a good time pretty much…I was always doing different stuff, so I had something on my mind that I wanted to try then I would do it then it would last for a little while and then I would do the next thing so I’ve probably done a little bit of everything”.

Within this AVN: Fresh Off The Bus interview Chanel Preston revealed how she lost her virginity when she was 15 years old;

“I was stoned….I can’t remember much about it, honestly. I had the typical after a party, drunk and stoned. It was very movie-like. It was actually with a good friend and I’m still good friends with him to this day. So lucky me it wasn’t with someone disgusting or gross. So I can’t say it was a good experience but it wasn’t bad”.

Chanel Preston has explored numerous career avenues before becoming an adult film star. For instance, Chanel Preston managed her father’s coffee shop in Alaska after graduating from high school.

But when she was 19 years old everything changed. Chanel Preston moved to Hawaii with one of her best friends whereupon she began working as a bartender and cocktail waitress at various nightclubs and wine bars. Chanel Preston explained within her AVN: Fresh Off The Bus interview that this move to Hawaii was an impulsive decision;

“It was kind of impulsive. My best friend had moved there a year before I did. And I was dating someone and ….something happened and I ended up breaking up with him and I thought you know I want to get out of here. I figured it’d be an easy move because she already lived there and I’ve been stuck there ever since”.

Once she had grown disillusioned with the restaurant industry, Chanel Preston began working as a manager for a skin care line at Nordstrom’s; a job which enabled her to acquire her aesthetician’s license. Chanel Preston discussed within her AVN: Fresh Off The Bus interview how;

“I kind of have a passion for skin care. Well I originally was trying to get into makeup artistry. I wanted to do that and then I started to care more about what’s underneath the makeup…So I got my license and I really wanted to go into the medical field with it. I wanted to get into medical aesthetics. But it’s so hard in Hawaii…it’s hard enough to get any job and then especially aesthetician work …I did aesthetician work at Nordstrom’s. There was an actual salon there so I did the facials and everything. And if it wasn’t so focused on retail I would probably have stayed there. But it’s Nordstrom’s so it’s sell, sell sell!…It still interests me though. I still enjoy reading about cosmetics. Even cosmetic dermatology is very intriguing to me”.

But here’s the question we all want answered; how did Chanel Preston begin performing in porn?

Well, although Chanel Preston loved learning about skin care treatments she hated her job at Nordstrom’s so she decided to inject some excitement into her life by taking a job as an erotic dancer at a local club in Hawaii. Chanel Preston explained within her Adult DVD Talk interview that it was working as a stripper and travelling around the United States performing in gentlemen’s clubs that eventually resulted in her pursuing her adult film career;

“I hated working at Nordstrom’s so I quit and I didn’t have a job. I thought I would try stripping. My boyfriend at the time was a male stripper. And so I tried it and I really liked it. I’m a really adventurous person and I like change and travelling so it was exciting for me. And in the process of doing that, I actually met a lady who got me into porn. She asked if I would consider doing it and she thought I’d do really well”.

This ‘lady’ was adult film manager Nakita Kash whom Chanel Preston met at a gentlemen’s club convention.  Chanel described this initial meeting with Nakita which kick-started her porn star career within her AVN: Fresh Off The Bus interview;

I am a dancer so she has a travelling entertainers’ thing where she sends girls to different clubs. And I contacted her because I wanted to travel a little bit, and that’s where I met her. And then I actually asked her how she got into it and she told me she did porn and I was kind of curious about it and we got to talking and it just kind of evolved from there. I think she trusted that I was in it for the right reasons so…I told her I was interested. I had to think about it and I was like I want to do that because I love dancing but I’m kind of over the hustling part. So I told her I think I’d enjoy porn a lot more than dancing. So she kind of helped me along and she’s managing me now”.

Chanel Preston : Adult Film Career

Here’s the deal; after working as a stripper since 2009 and posing nude for several art modelling shoots, Chanel Preston was booked to film her first ever hardcore sex scenes in January 2010 with Nick Manning for the Vivid Entertainment series Brand New Faces. Describing shooting her first ever sex scenes within her Adult DVD Talk interview, Chanel revealed that;

“I was nervous beforehand but once they said ‘action’, I was actually fine. It was just up to that point. I told the lady that got me in that I didn’t want my first scene to be, ‘I’m brand new!’ and they want you to act naïve. And that’s exactly what it was, Brand New Faces for Vivid. And it was with Nick Manning so that was definitely and interesting first. But he was great and it wasn’t a real big crew. But it was fine and after that, it was real easy. I never had a problem, I was very comfortable”.

After filming her first sex scenes for Brand New Faces, Chanel Preston performed in a Jack’s POV boy/girl sex scene with Scott Nails. Describing this sophomore shoot within her AVN: Fresh Face interview, Chanel noted how;

I did Jack’s POV for Robby D. with Scott Nails. I liked him. He was a gentleman. It was kind of, not a very serious scene. They were supposed to shoot a feature that day, some scenes for a feature, but it didn’t work out so they decided just to shoot some POV scenes. So it was fun”.

It gets even better; in 2010 Chanel Preston earned her first even adult film acting role for the Wicked Pictures production Hooked with Jessica Drake and Eva Angelina. Chanel described how she earned this starring role within her AVN: Fresh Off The Bus interview;

We were talking with them when we were at the AVN’s and Jessica was like, ‘Oh she needs to play Claire,’ and [Brad Armstrong] was like, ‘But that’s kind of an older lady.’ I’m supposed to pimp her out. We’re both call girls and I’m trying to make money off of her. She’s like ‘No she has to play Claire she’d be perfect for it.’ So he gave me the chance to play her and it was kind of a big deal because it was my first type of role. … I wanted to play Claire. I said this is my part, this is me! I can do this! So I’m very thankful to Brad for giving me the opportunity to do that”.  

Want to know to best part? Following her adult film debut, Chanel began to feature within a wealth of Wicked Pictures productions including 4Some (2010) with Jessica Drake and Kaylani Lei, and Speed (2010) with Jessica Drake and Tori Black which won “Best Epic” at the 2010 XRCO Awards.

You might be wondering about Chanel’s first ever DVD feature release. Filmed in May 2010 for 3rd Degree, Bikini Land (2010) featured Chanel in a saucy sex scene with Pat Myne. Chanel swiftly followed her debut DVD feature release with her first ever DVD cover model role in the Jules Jordan Video production Fashion Fucks (2010) with Alexis Texas, Aleska Diamond, Nikki Benz, Brynn Tyler and Lexi Belle. Fashion Fucks was nominated for “Best High-End All-Sex Release” at the 2011AVN Awards and paved the way for Chanel to earn her first ever magazine cover model shoot for France’s premier adult film magazine Hot Video in October 2010.

You’ve probably seen countless fantastic anal releases featuring Chanel Preston over the years but it was actually in November 2010 that Chanel filmed her first ever anal sex scenes with Toni Ribas for the Jules Jordan Video production Dangerous Curves. This popular DVD feature went on to be nominated for “Best Gonzo Release” at the 2012 AVN and XRCO Awards.

Bottom line? In the years that followed Chanel began to film a wealth of raunchy double vag and double anal sex scenes. Talking about shooting these saucy scenes within her Adult DVD Talk interview, Chanel Preston commented that;

“I had to try it because I wanted to. (laughs) OK, I’ll say it’s something I wouldn’t do in my personal life but I’m a performer and I love to perform. So to do something crazy on film and get off from that and I like it. So the crazier it is for me, the more enjoyable for me. But in my personal life, I’m not like that. I don’t have that performer mindset. It’s not the same”.

Chanel Preston

This wild and adventurous nature has even led to Chanel Preston taking a baseball bat up her ass in the 2013 Evil Angel production Ass Party 3! When she was asked about this amazing anal sex scene within her Adult DVD Talk interview, Chanel revealed how;

“I really wasn’t expecting to do that. It was one of those days where I was like, ‘Oh,  girl/girl anal, ok, whatever’. I wasn’t really thinking in my head because there’s a difference between doing girl/girl anal and doing a Mandingo anal scene. Anikka is great, obviously, but she’s not as experienced anally and it was for Evil Angel and Joey so I thought I could amp this up a little bit. (laughs) So then I got in the mindset of, ‘I’m going to shove this baseball bat in there’. (laughs)…It’s hard to describe the feeling of stretching your butt. It’s not painful it’s just a really intense feeling. It can be painful if you do it wrong. But if you do it right, it’s just an intense feeling”.

Another landmark moment in Chanel’s career came in 2013 when she filmed her first interracial scenes with Prince Yahshua for the Adam & Eve production Perfect Secretary 3: The New Recruit. Also starring Riley Reid and Dana DeArmond, Perfect Secretary 3: The New Recruit was nominated for “Best BDSM Release” at the 2014 AVN Awards.

Let’s be honest, all of us have some pretty freaky fantasies. In fact, Chanel Preston revealed within her Adult DVD Talk interview that shooting for sites such as Kink.com has enabled her to live out all of her feisty sexual fantasies. As Chanel Preston enthusiastically stated;

“Oh my God, I’ve already lived out my fantasies! I loved my gang bang for Kink, not that the actual storyline was a fantasy of mine, I was like a Queen. But it was just such an intense thing for me. The first gang bang I did, I really enjoyed it but I didn’t get to choose my own guys and it was sort of last minute and I wasn’t really in the mindset for it. It was spur of the moment. But the Kink one was really crazy and really intense and I was really ready for it. And so afterward it was really cool and I’d say that was the ultimate fantasy for me to experience something intense like that”.

That’s more people for me to fantasize about as I approach orgasm during an extremely naughty session on set”.

Thrilled to receive these awards and this type of broad-stream praise and acceptance from her fans, fellow porn stars and adult film critics, Chanel Preston enthused within an AVN press release after winning “Best New Starlet” at the XRCO Awards how;

“It’s a pretty amazing year. I can’t believe the amount of attention I’ve received, starting back in April 2010 when I was first publicly honored with a role as XRCO’s Trophy Girl. I know XRCO’s faith in me has been integral to my success and the recent string of awards the industry has bestowed on me is mind-boggling and humbling. With all this in mind, I would like to thank the X-Rated Critics Organization for their acknowledgement”.

Similarly, after winning “Best New Performer” at the first ever Galaxy Awards, Chanel Preston sincerely expressed that;

“Receiving The Galaxy Awards’ Best New Female Performer honor is amazing, but learning that it was decided by my colleagues like Katsuni, Jenna and Mick makes me incredibly proud.

I couldn’t ask for a better first year. Thank you”.

Chanel Preston : Directorial Debut

Many adult film superstars have launched impressive directing careers so you may be wondering about Chanel Preston? If so then you’re totally correct!

 It all began in 2015 when Chanel Preston directed her first ever girl/girl porn production, Chanel Movie One, and her first boy/girl production, Smoke, after discussing the idea with fellow adult film star James Deen. As James himself stated within a December 2015 AVN interview;

“One time Chanel was speaking to me about the philosophy of presenting something which could be conceived as scary in a beautiful way. My response was to ask if she had ever thought of directing…Chanel presented me with a treatment for her idea, and I thought it was one of the most creative and clever ideas I had heard in quite a while…After a quick conversation about aesthetics, it was clear we were on the same page, and I could trust her with taking the reins and producing an amazing project … one I hope will be her first of many”.

Distributed in January 2015, Chanel Movie One starred Claire Robbins, Dahlia Sky, Dana DeArmond, Dani Daniels, Sovereign Syre, Zoey Monroe, Veruca James and Phoenix Marie. Chanel Preston’s directing debut was a smash-hit; impressing her fans and film critics alike and earning Chanel a “Best All-Girl Group Sex Scene” at the 2016 AVN Awards for her performance with Dahlia Sky and Dani Daniels. Discussing her directorial debut within an AVN press release, Chanel Preston praised her stellar all-girl cast;

 “All the girls have crazy sexual energy. They are amazing performers loving what they do, and the camera captures all of it. I am very proud of the movie because it’s visually stunning and sensual…I think the hardest part of directing has definitely been naming the project. Chanel Movie One started off as a joke between the crew, but its simplicity and directness started to grow on us—it’s definitely easy for anyone to remember!”.

So no pressure for her sophomore project!

Applegate, Nikki Darling, Aria Alexander and Aria Thomas which was nominated for “Best Anthology Movie” at the 2016 AVN Awards and All In Your Head (2015) with Anikka Albrite, Keira Nicole, Casey Calvert and Keisha Grey.

Chanel Preston : Adult Entertainment Advocacy Projects

Let’s be honest, adult film stars are often perceived as superficial. But not Chanel Preston!

Chanel Preston has always been an intelligent and conscientious individual who is unafraid to speak her mind on important issues which impact adult film professionals. As a result ,Chanel was named Takedown Piracy‘s “Star of the Month” in February 2012 due to her ongoing efforts to preserve the working rights of adult film professionals.

Under this role, Chanel Preston fought to highlight the infringements of performers’ copyright laws in the media and to educate consumers on how they can help their favorite porn stars to protect their adult film content. As Chanel Preston stated within a February 2012 AVN press release;

“I am proud to be selected as a spokesperson for Takedown Piracy’s anti-piracy campaign…It is important to educate fans on content theft and how it can and will lead to the destruction of the movies they love to watch.  I truly believe most fans want to do right by the adult industry, which is why I’m giving away a free membership for my website to one of the fans reporting piracy this month”.

You won’t believe what happened when City National Bank put this resolve to the test!

It all began in May 2013 when Chanel Preston spoke out when she was one of several adult film stars to be refused service from City National Bank due to their porn star professions. Chanel told her story to CNBC and revealed within their feature article Porn and Banks: Drawing a Line on Loans that;

“[The loan officer] asked me ‘are you affiliated with the adult entertainment industry?’ When I said yes, she said ‘We will not give you a loan’”.

Chanel Preston also told her story to TMZ Live via a Skype call, explaining to TMZ chief Harvey Levin how;

“The reasoning they gave me was fairly evasive, but I know it had something to do with the webcam option on my website, which has nothing to do with the bank. But they weren’t very clear about what it was about the webcam. It sort of seemed as if for them it was sort of risky, like I was going to do risky, illegal activity on the webcam and they were not in control of that, but I don’t see why that would be their responsibility. The webcam website takes their own precautions to alleviate illegal activity”.

You may be wondering where Chanel Preston’s advocacy work took her next?

Well, in a totally unheard of move, in 2013 Chanel became the president and co-founder of the Adult Performer Advocacy Committee (APAC); the first ever coalition of its kind dedicated to protecting the rights of adult film performers.

Believe it or not, Chanel Preston was instrumental in facilitating the alliance formed between the 250 members of APAC and the First Entertainment Credit Union which ensured that performers had legitimate banking rights. Chanel continues to lead initiatives which better educate adult film stars on their working rights. As Chanel Preston stated within a 2015 Daily Beast article;

“I want to see performers educated. When people are educated they make better decisions for themselves,” says Preston. “There’s no centralized place to go for accurate information, so you’re either relying on your agent or your peers and you have to hope they’re telling you the truth”.

It gets even better; Chanel Preston remains dedicated to educating porn stars and society in general on issues relating to sexual health. In order to do so, in March 2014 Chanel Preston launched her own sex education web series; Naked With Chanel. This weekly web series endeavoured to dispel sexual health myths and offer non-nonsense relationship advice and a realistic perspective on healthy sexuality from the perspective of a seasoned adult film performer.

It’s truly incredible how the fundraising website IndieGogo enabled Chanel Preston’s fans and colleagues to help her raise enough funds to develop the Naked With Chanel website and to film its initial webisodes. Chanel Preston has been incredibly grateful to her fans for their ongoing support and fundraising campaigns, sincerely expressing within her AVN interview that;

“I want to help people shed the inhibitions and negative attitudes currently keeping them from understanding themselves better…I want to address social issues surrounding sexuality in America and help people become more informed about how our attitudes about sex are affecting our lives…In my time in [the adult] industry, I have seen people’s lives change when they are given the tools to feel more comfortable with themselves which, in turn, has lead them to make better decisions…I decided to go with Indiegogo.com because it allows me the chance to make this a community project from the very beginning…By inviting my fans, friends, and all supporters of sex-positive platforms to be ‘investors’ in Naked With Chanel, it allows everyone to be a part of this entire project”.

You may be wondering where Chanel Preston’s advocacy work has taken her in recent years? Well, Chanel has spoken out on important adult film issues such as the use of the term ‘interracial’ with regards to marketing within the adult film industry. As Chanel Preston advocated within her April 2014 C.J. Asher interview;

“I don’t feel like everyone uses the term interracial in the same way. I do feel that some, and hopefully most, use the term primarily for marketing purposes as that is a popular niche that has been created over time. However, that is not to say that there isn’t some level of racism in the industry as it relates to the term”.

Chanel Preston elaborated on these opinions within her April 2015 Interracial Porn 411 interview, noting how;

I think it’s more marketing [than racism]. However, I think there is another overt racism issue as it relates to pay for performers. I’ve spoken to a few performers who felt that the pay was not the same. A girl has told me that, “if I wasn’t black I feel that I would be getting paid more to do these scenes.” I had to agree with her…I would not feel comfortable ever charging more to work with a black male performer. Some may say that it’s a “specialty niche” and I charge more for that niche. However, me personally that’s just something that I won’t do”.

You’ve probably heard of her fantastic feature dancing tours but did you know that Chanel Preston also pursued a career as a radio talk show host? No word of a lie, Chanel Preston has worked as a guest moderator on Sex Talk Tuesdays in April 2014 where she responded to thousands of Tweets from adoring fans who were eager to seek her advice on life, love, sex and relationship issues. Chanel Preston was also a guest on RT America‘s political and pop culture talk show Watching the Hawks in March 2015. Is there anything Chanel Preston can’t do?

You may be wondering why Chanel Preston decided to work as a guest moderator? Well Chanel Preston’s hosting career actually began all the way back in 2010 when she was chosen to be a trophy girl at the XRCO Awards as a “Heart On Girl”.

Following a successful hosting debut, Chanel Preston was soon sought after to be a trophy girl at the 2010 F.A.M.E. Awards and the 2011 AVN Awards. At the end of January 2014 Chanel Preston was even chosen to co-host the annual AVN Awards ceremony with her friend and fellow porn star Samantha Saint and she enthused within her post AVN Awards interview how;

“I had such a blast co-hosting the Awards with Samantha and Rebekah…It was so much fun… and to receive an award for my performance in Get My Belt is such an honor! I’m still buzzing from having experienced the most amazing AVN Awards ever. Thank you to everyone with AVN who helped make this night amazing!”.

Here’s the bottom line; following her steady stream of successful hosting gigs, in February 2015 Chanel Preston was chosen to host the Showtime documentary X-Rated: The Greatest Adult Movies of All Time which highlighted some of greatest adult movies ever produced and offered in-depth interviews with some of the biggest stars in the industry. Chanel Preston discussed the process of shooting this popular documentary within her Fleshbot interview, conveying that;

“I have worked closely with Plausible Films on other projects in the past couple years, like “Adult Insider,” which goes behind the scenes of the adult entertainment industry – so they were familiar with my work as a host. I know I was one of the first considered to host “X-Rated: The Greatest Adult Movies of All-Time,” but they did hold an audition, and fortunately, I made the cut. I was very excited to be a part of this project since it was an opportunity to show the adult film industry in a different and interesting way, from its rise to prominence in the 70s through its evolution to today…

Despite the stereotypes and assumptions by many that pornography seems to lack depth, I’d like people to see that the adult film industry has a lot of history, and this rich history has affected not only the porn industry itself, but also society as a whole. So many of these movies had such a huge impact on our culture, and they have all contributed in some way to where we are today”.
