Asia Carrera, AVN Hall of Famer and proudest nerd in the business, blazed across screens in the 90s. She made porn bigger, bolder, and more mainstream than anyone thought possible. Her scenes in Wicked's grunge-era flicks carved out space for every hot Eurasian performer who came after her, cementing her name in porn history. That ride started in 1993 and stopped ten years later when she stepped away, chasing bigger goals outside the industry. Ten solid years of filth left her résumé stuffed: first Asian woman to snag AVN Female Performer of the Year, voices in hentai, two different halls of fame, and she wrote, directed, and produced her own titles. Oh, and she's a classically trained pianist. Brains and body. Member of MENSA, 156 IQ, sharp with code. While MySpace was still a glint in a nerd's eye, Asia ran a site that racked up millions of hits and served as the gateway drug for a generation of jerk-offs. Leader, tech freak, tits out. She cracked open doors for every shy girl who wanted to trade quiet study sessions for wet, raunchy ones on camera. Porn owes her a lap dance.
