Katsumi

Pornstar Profile

Katsumi was born in 1979. She grew up in France with a French mother and a Cambodian father while learning to speak both French and English fluently. One of the most business savvy entrepreneurs to come along in recent pornstar history, Katsumi has turned her exotic 34D-23-35 beauty and sexy South East Asian sex appeal into a massive empire of adult entertainment properties.

Even after some very controversial court decisions involving the stage name she chose to use, the Katsumi or Katsuni brand have become quite valuable to video producers, sex toy retailers and adult magazine publishers because fans continue to adore their French / Asian muse and the way she passionately performs every time she takes her clothes off on film.

Katsuni studied political science for more than a year at the prestigious Grenoble Institute of Political Studies in France before she entered the adult industry in 2002. She has starred in more than 300 adult films and made her directorial debut in 2011 with Katsuni's Casting Couch. At the start of her career she performed primarily under the stage name Katsumi, but she was barred by a French judge in January 2007 from using the name after a woman named Mary Katsumi sued her in French court over the resemblance to her own name. At first Katsumi disregarded to court order but in October of 2007 she was fined €20,000 for violations of the ban on using the name. It was at that time that she made the decision to change her stage name to Katsuni - creating some confusion among casual porn fans but protecting herself against any future legal claims.

Unlike many other foreign porn performers who moves to porn valley in the United States to start their adult film career, Katsumi made a name for herself in the world of erotic entertainment while living in France. She began by taking cabaret and go-go dancer gigs, eventually moving up to private clubs and allegedly more than a few live sex shows. Eventually she started doing pictorials and earned her way onto the cover of Penthouse in France when she was 23 years old.

During her first three years in adult entertainment Katsumi worked with many of the top adult studios including Lethal Hardcore, Digital Playground, Vivid, Penthouse and many others. Later, in December of 2006, Katsuni decided to sign an exclusive contract with Digital Playground, limiting her exposure to a few films a year but greatly enhancing the overall quality of the work she is involved with and the casts she is part of on each new feature film release. She has performed with all the biggest names of the last decade including Tommy Gunn, Randy Spears, Felecia, Lexington Steele and too many others to list in an all-star studded set of adult performers who have helped her create some of the most famous iconic xxx films in history.

Recently Katsuni starred in the big budget feature video Pirates II for Digital Playground along with other porn megastars like Jesse Jane, Evan Stone, Belladonna and Sasha Grey. In 2010 Katsumi expanded her portfolio to include other kinds of adult themed products as well. She had her vagina cast in latex so that fans could fuck her own signature Flesh Light sex toy, launched her own brand of sexy lingerie for upscale adults called Petite Coeur by Katsuni which is distributed internationally and that was just the tip of the iceberg.

In 2011 Katsuni followed up those efforts by histing her own French mainstream channel MCM Les Mangas sexy de Katsuni, which is a show all about her true love of Hentai and Japanese Anime erotic cartoons. She also extended her work in the field of fashion by contracting with French clothiers OTAKU to produce her own line of elegant T-shirts. Rumors persist that she is even about to have her own character in an upcoming video game title being launched on the PS3 and XBOX platforms world wide.

Perhaps most unexpectedly of all, Katsuni announced that in 2011 she will be ending her five year stint as a contract girl with Digital Playground to pursue more opportunities in adult film as a free agent working with several studios instead. Few performers in history have garnered as much attention or as many award show accolades as legendary Asian pornstar Katsumi and now she will have the chance to put those considerable talents and expert approval to the test as she seeks out exciting new adventures beyond the Digital Playground studio exclusive limits.

In France, Katsuni was chosen by MCM to star in a five episode long documentary about her life and career. Genesis magazine named her one of the Ten Most Popular Porn Stars In America. Katsuni has starred on the cover of many domestic and international adult magazines and the list of noteworthy awards she has won can be staggering. However, it is her connection with fans that keeps her motivated and matters most. That's why she diligently updates her Twitter account with more than 13,000 tweets to date and has attracted more than 40,000 active followers as par of her social networking initiative.

As for her adult industry awards prior to her free sex tube performances, dating all the way back to 2004, Katsumi won the 2004 European X Award for Best Actress (France) and AVN Award for Best Anal Sex Scene in Multiple P.O.V. with Gisselle & Michael Stefano. In 2005 she was the winner of the AVN Award for Female Foreign Performer of the Year and AVN Award for Best Anal Sex Scene in Lex Steele XXX 3 with Lexington Steele.
