LOS ANGELES — Beautiful and sexy college senior Kayden Kross, who says she was a bookworm before she blossomed into a sexual dynamo, has signed a contract to become an adult star with Vivid Entertainment.

The 21-year-old, 5’5″ blonde student at Sacramento State College in California will become a Vivid Girl, one of the elite group of actresses for the world’s leading producer of XXX films.

“I was finding it harder and harder to see how my studies could work into a career that would get me motivated,” says Kayden. “I still intend to get my degree, but I am more excited about launching my life with Vivid. I’m definitely ready for my next adventure which includes having multiple partners. I know I’m going with the top company and I’m really excited about it.”

Kayden, who is a published poet, claims her sexuality became more important to her once she turned 18 and started dancing at a local gentlemen’s club. It wasn’t long before she was contacted by an agent and soon she was modeling for Penthouse, Hustler, Club, Swank and Rockstar magazines.

“I think I’m basically a reserved person,” she said, “but I’m pretty turned on just under the surface and, if the situation is right, I can really be outgoing. I had to work as a waitress in a gentlemen’s club for weeks before I got up the nerve to go on stage, but then I got to love it and I looked forward to getting all dressed up and going to work to be with my friends.”

Kayden says that she likes well-dressed men, especially those who are a bit older than she is. “If I like someone and he really looks good in a suit, that does it for me,” she said. “I’m also still looking for a guy who likes to ride horses, because I’ve got two and it would be great if we could go riding together.”

She said “Times have changed about perceptions of the adult industry. All of my friends were supportive of my decision to make this move.” She will start filming her first movie for Vivid in November.
