Before she became the sensual adult film star her fans know and love, Kenna has revealed that she was a fairly shy and introverted child. However, Kenna explained within her March 2015 Adult DVD Talk interview that her confidence soared when she began performing as an exotic dancer at a club in Indiana during her senior year of high school. As Kenna puts it in her own words;

“I was actually a very nerdy girl growing up. I sat in the corner and read my books. I was far from popular. (laughs) I was a lot different than I am today…I didn’t know I was beautiful until my senior year of high school. I didn’t know I was pretty. I guess that’s when I realized. I’m not one of those girls that uses that to get what I want…I came out of my shell when I started dancing, when I started stripping. That was what really brought me out”.

Kenna has always been a hard-working, independent individual. In fact, Kenna moved into her own apartment when she was 17 years old and started working as an exotic dancer to support herself. Kenna has discussed her diligent work ethic in her December 2016 You’ve Been Hooked interview, commenting that;

“I was on my own at age seventeen. My home life wasn’t very good so I made the decision that if I wanted more I’d have to go out and get it myself. So I moved myself four hours away to a city I’d never been to, enrolled myself in high school, found a tiny apartment and got a job as a stripper in a little club to support myself...

I learned the value of hard work early on…Everyone has ups and downs, no matter who they are or what level of success they’ve attained. Sometimes I work myself into total burnout mode. When I need a recharge I go home and hang with my cats or visit with my grandparents, that’s my happy place”.

Whilst performing as an exotic dancer at a gentlemens’ club in Indiana, Kenna was spotted by a local photographer who offered to feature her in some sultry solo photo sets. Kenna posed for her first modelling shoot before moving back home which led to her shooting some live chat sessions via such adult cam sites as MyFreeCams and Camsoda. During this time Kenna’s sizzling live chat sessions and modelling shoots caught the eye of an agent in Los Angeles who sent the images to Penthouse. Through this fortuitous chain of events Kenna was offered the chance to pose as Penthouse‘s “Pet of the Month”. And the rest, as they say, is history! Kenna discussed this pivotal moment in her life during her December 2016 X-Czech interview, highlighting how;

“I didn’t set out to be an erotic model at all, it all kind of fell into my lap. I started as a stripper my senior year of high school in a little club in Indiana. I was just trying to get myself through high school and into college. A local photographer who frequented the club offered to shoot me. I did a few shoots and some of those images ended up online. An agent in LA showed someone at Penthouse those images and they offered to shoot me for Pet of the Month. That just opened door after door within the industry and my life took a dramatic turn. Lol…

After high school, I had planned on going to college for a degree in veterinary medicine but that summer is when this opportunity fell into my lap so I put it on hold. In the next few years, I’m hoping to have my career in a place where there’s not so much travel where I can go back and pick up where I left off…

I came from literally nothing, we had very little while I was growing up and I decided that I wanted a different path with a different set of opportunities and I pursued that. My grandmother was quick to cheer me on and tell me to chase my dreams. I honestly didn’t bring many friends from childhood into adulthood with me, only 2 or 3. Those that I still communicate with are extremely supportive”.

Kenna James : Adult Film Career

Kenna first began working in the adult film industry in late 2014 when she was chosen by Penthouse to be their “Pet of the Month” for February 2015. As part of this coveted title, Kenna also filmed her first solo sex scenes and her first ever girl/girl shoot. As Kenna explained in her January 2017 X-Rent DVD interview;

“He was very upfront with what it really was. I told him I was fine with that and we set the limits to solo and Girl/Girl. My first shoot was a Solo. So I just got to do all me. Then after that it started transitioning into more. I’ve loved it ever since”.

In this manner Kenna shared a saucy scene with Bree Daniels that was featured in  the Penthouse porn production When The Boyz Are Away The Girlz Will Play (2014). Talking about shooting her first ever sex scenes in her March 2015 Adult DVD Talk interview, Kenna mentioned that;

“I was very nervous but it went exceptionally well. It went above and beyond what I thought I could do”.

In the months that followed Kenna posed for the cover of the February 2015 issue o Penthouse magazine and has since been featured on the cover of the July 2015 issue of Hustler magazine. A gorgeous glamour model, Kenna has also been featured within a #Selfies article for the September 2015 issue of Hustler magazine alongside her fellow Hustler Honeys Emily Grey, Sophie Dee, Ryan Ryans, Niki Lee Young, Maya Grad and Kay Devon.

Most recently, Kenna has been featured within the special Calendar Girls issue of Penthouse Letters magazine.

Want to know the best part? Over the years Kenna has continued to collaborate with Penthouse on a wealth of best-selling DVDs including Lesbian Love Tales (2016) also starring Sasha Heart, Sara Luvv, Abigail Mac, Jenna Sativa and Val Dodds, MILF Rendezvous (2016) within which Kenna starred alongside India Summer, Alexis Fawx, Alison Moore, Claudia Valentine and Eva Long, Supreme Vixens (2017) that enabled Kenna to shoot some sultry scenes with Ana Foxxx, Erotic Tall Tales (2017) with Val Dodds, A.J. Applegate, Jojo Kiss, Cindy Starfall and Karla Kush, Penthouse Cocktails (2017) that enabled Kenna to share a saucy shoot with Hennessy, and Tell Me What You Want (2017) featuring Marica Hase, Jenna Sativa, Layla Sin, Uma Jolie and Valentina Nappi.

In addition to her ongoing DVD collaborations with Penthouse, Kenna was named as their “Pet of the Year” for 2016. Kenna was thrilled to receive this prestigious title and humbly stated during her March 2017 AVN interview that;

“I never expected to actually win. I wanted to of course, but so did 11 other girls, and I honestly never dreamed I would win and it was amazing. Honestly, I cannot thank Penthouse enough for the honor of representing their brand”.

In fact, Kenna ardently enthused within her December 2016 X-Czech interview that;

“Being the 2016 Penthouse Pet of the Year has been a dream come true for me. I set out at the beginning of my career in the adult industry with that goal in mind and being chosen was just mind blowing for me. Penthouse is a legendary publication in the industry and to be a part of that is such an honor. The company recently changed hands and now Kelly Holland is at the helm. Kelly has the spirit of Bob Guccione in her I think because she’s just passionate about maintaining Penthouses original theme and form. While Playboy pretty much threw in the towel and gave up Penthouse continues on and with the things Kelly is going to be doing in the near future I believe you will be seeing Penthouse roaring back into the mainstream. I’m so excited to see what happens in the next few years with the company”.

Honestly, there are so many girls that I get so excited over because there are so many great ones out there. Even if it is a new girl, I will look her up and I cannot wait to go to set and meet her and actually work with her. I don’t think I can narrow it down to just a few. (laughs)”.

Kenna James : Boy/Girl Scene Debut & Recent Releases

A landmark moment in Kenna’s adult film career occurred in March 2017 when she filmed her first ever boy/girl scenes with James Deen that were distributed via X-Art.com. Titled Kenna’s Sexual Fantasy, this sizzling shoot also incorporated Kenna’s first boy/girl/girl scenes with Natalia Starr and James Deen! Kenna discussed shooting her boy/girl debut during her March 2017 AVN interview, revealing that;

“Yesterday I did my first boy/girl with James Deen and it was phenomenal, better than I ever dreamed it could be…I’m sitting on cloud nine…I have had a crush on James since I was 14…I kind of grew up watching him…If I ever did [boy/girl] I knew I would want it to be him…He’s so cute and adorable and a wonderful partner in a scene. It was exactly what I wanted—sweet and romantic, a very lovey dovey type of scene…

I met him a few times. He mentored me in the beginning of my career. He helped me get going and understand the business side of it. When I first met him at AVN in 2015 I fan-girled so hard. He was right across the booth from me and I was just in awe. I remember I took a picture with him and thought I was going to burst…

James by himself is amazing. Add in another girl, especially another one as beautiful and into her work as Natalia Starr and it just becomes an indescribable feeling. It was one of the best scenes I’ve ever done…So it was a day of firsts. They put her together with me and it was perfect”.

Following her successful boy/girl debut, in June 2017 Kenna filmed her first ever interracial scenes with Alex Jones, titled The Next Lucky Man, which were promoted via X-Art.com. These hot hardcore sex scenes were even showcased in the Metart/ X-Art DVD compilation title Interracial Encounters (2017) featuring Riley Reid, Veronica Rodriguez, Amarna Miller, Aubrey Star and Danielle Gray.

As well as these steamy boy/girl scenes, Kenna continues to shoot as a girl/girl performer.

A multi-talented porn star, glamour model and webcam personality, Kenna enjoys hosting regular feature dancing shows in exclusive gentlemens’ clubs across the United States. When she was asked to describe a typical feature dancing show during her January 2017 X-Rent DVD interview, Kenna divulged that;

“Everyone is different. I like to go out and meet the people and I will tip the girls. I just go and try to have fun. You go back and start getting ready for your first show. I always get a little nervous no matter what club I am at, especially if it’s my first time [there]. Every time I will get nervous. You go out there and you see everyone looking at you. Once you see that everyone there wants to see you, you get excited and you rock your stage that trip”.

So what does the future hold for rising starlet Kenna James? Well, in the long term Kenna intends to train as a veterinarian but she has explained in her January 2017 X-Rent DVD interview that she intends to continue performing in porn for the near future. As Kenna James puts it in her own words;

“I think I will just tone it down. I don’t think I will ever just quit. I love it too much. (laughs)…My plan is I am hoping within the next year to at least start my studies again regardless of how my path is going. But if I am still sitting as high as I am now, which I hope I am, I’ll probably take on fewer classes so I can still focus on work but at the same time, I am starting the education process. I’m starting to go back and at least set that in motion. It will take me at least eight to 10 years to finish what I need to do…

I’ve known from a very young age that I wanted to work with animals. I think it was middle school that I figured it out and I have stuck with it ever since. I love animals and I have forever wanted to do was to help them. I actually have more cats than I am willing to say all because they were rescues. They are my little babies and I don’t know how I would live without them. I volunteered at an animal shelter before I could actually work. I help them every day. When I was in high school, I worked at a vet clinic. It was the absolute joy of my life. Even though I just cleaned up after them… That love has just propelled me into being a veterinarian”.
