Roxy Jezel was born on June 5, 1982, in London, England whose father is Thai and her mother is British. She began her career in porn in 2003 when she was 21 years old and officially retired six years later in 2009 but long before she started her career as a porn star she dabbled in erotic entertainment.
At just 17 years old Roxy Jezel worked as a chat line operator, where she would talk to men from men all around the world, especially those in America because they loved her accent. After college where she got a BA in philosophy and ethics, she decided to go backpacking through Europe. From there she made her way to Santiago, Chile, and then she went to Australia. While in Australia she started to run low on money so she started working in a strip club as well as doing a few magazine shoots. She posted on a website for more work when she was spotted by someone from LA Direct Models who contacted her and offered to bring her to LA to do porn. Always up for a crazy adventure, she went for it.
Roxy got top grades in secondary school. After receiving a BA in Philosophy with a specialization in ethics, Jezel backpacked around the world and worked as an exotic dancer in Australia. Roxy first began performing in explicit hardcore movies at age 20 in April 2003 (she did her first sex scene for Red Light District).
Roxy Jezel was the winner of the second season of Jenna Jameson’s Playboy TV show “Jenna’s American Sex Star” and has the distinction of being the first non-Caucasian to be a contract star for Jameson’s company ClubJenna. She also made a cameo appearance in the Season 3 finale of the HBO series Entourage, Episode 20: “Adios, Amigos” which first aired on June 03, 2007. She was cast as “porn actress #1”.
Roxy Jezel was sexually curious at a rather young age. In fact, she once told a reporter that she watched her first adult movie at the age of 14 which featured bestiality. She laughed it off calling it a “European thing”
On September 3, 2009, LA Direct Models announced Roxy Jezel has officially retired from porn.
Roxy Jezel has now officially retired from the Adult Entertainment Industry and has moved on to pursue a some what normal life. She’s now working in a job that she is happy with while doing school and a multitude of other things. Last time we spoke with Roxy, she was really excited to be going back to a normal life.
