Jessica drake calls herself the girl-next-door porn boss—Forbes slapped the nickname on her first. She’s collected three AVN Best Actress trophies, stacks of other hardware, yet the thing she brags about most is helping people feel less alone between the sheets. At Wicked Pictures she writes, directs, acts and still finds hours to run sex-ed DVDs where real couples and porn pros walk you through every knot and caress. The latest guide won hardware from AVN, XBIZ and even the Feminist Porn Awards—proof that a little on-camera guidance can sell as briskly as the main event. Last year she slipped between Fallen II and an all-sex marathon called Carnal, proving gender can be a playground instead of a fence, then doubled down with a twosome opposite Chantel Santini in Divine. Up next: more high-gloss couples stories for Brad Armstrong. “They let me chase my kinks,” she laughs, “and they back me when I say everybody deserves the spotlight.”
