Looking for more information on your favorite adult film model?
With thousands of porn stars from all around the world, the internet is awash with videos, clips and feature length movies. Some of these performers are well known whilst others are more obscure, so where do you go if you want to know more about a porn star? Well, Wikipedia might be your first port of call but this database of facts isn’t the best place to head for adult content. Instead, there are plenty of porn star directories that offer bios, links and pics for your favorite adult film performers.
In this feature, we’ve put together a list of the best porn star directories, from those that offer full bios and filmographies to those that offer something a little more insightful.
Top Three Porn Star Directories and Databases
First up, we’ve got our selection of the top three sites that offer free access to biographies and links to further content that is associated with the porn star of your choice. Some offer galleries and clips as well as full filmographies and even links to official websites, Twitter pages and more.
If you need a little inspiration to get started, take a look at our popular porn star round-ups. 😉
IAFD
Our number one choice for data on a porn star is the IAFD, or the Internet Adult Film Directory.
Ranked in the top 700 adult websites worldwide and with monthly traffic exceeding 5.24 million users, the IAFD is a popular directory. The site covers everything from DVDs, films and internet scenes to directors, male and female performers. In total you can find over 314,000 titles and 179,000 performers/directors on the site, all cross-referenced so you can look up clips by performer, release year, director tar or even check the co-pairings of a particular star.
The site is kept up to date by a staff of volunteers following the death of the site’s founder, Peter van Aarle in 2005
The Dutch curator originally started compiling porn movie data (U.S. only) from the early 1980s in a project that is still archived at its original newsgroup site, rame. The pages of his database grew to such an extent that it eventually became unmanageable and so, in 1995, the IAFD was created.
van Aarle’s work is invaluable to both the porn community itself and its legions of fans and his contribution to the industry has been recognized with a posthumous induction into the XRCO Hall of Fame. He was also rewarded with a small part (prior to his death, of course) in a porn movie in which he got to have sex on screen with the actress Christi Lake.
The site now contains records for porn content dating as far back as 1960 and mainly covers adult films released in the United States and Europe. There is a mix of gay and straight pornography titles contained on the site as well as covering some fetish and Asian content.
The IAFD not only provides a useful knowledge base of performers and movies, the site also provides some information and vital stats along with credits, awards and basic bio details. In addition, the site features contributions from reviewers, interviews and a regular blog.
Searching for porn stars on the IAFD is easy and you can simply enter a title, performer/director name, year, distributor or studio and you get a full listing. The advanced search feature also lets you refine this with things like ethnicity, heritage, hair color, debut year, birth year, retirement year and numerous options on specifics such as sex acts performed.
All in all, the IAFD is our number one choice for the industry go-to on porn stars, films and other contributors. However, it does lack a little more detail when it comes to the personal lives, history and detail that you might want in a biography; plus, it doesn’t have any free content or links to pics and clips.
FreeOnes
So, where IAFD doesn’t offer free content along with its stats and film details, FreeOnes gives you plenty of links to galleries, clips and more information about your favorite porn stars.
Ranked in the top 400 adult websites in the world and with visitor numbers exceeding 7.5 million each month, FreeOnes should be bookmarked by anyone who truly calls themselves a porn fan.
The site was launched in 1998 in the Netherlands by webmaster Maurice and is not only a database but also a link aggregator. Plus, this site doesn’t only include porn stars; it also offers information about fashion/glamour models, mainstream movie/TV actresses as well as other celebrities.
A typical listing on Freeones includes:
- Quick Bio Information
- Links and Free Videos
- Detailed Biography with Official Site(s) (where applicable)
- Social Media links
Each ‘babe’ is also ranked using the FreeOnes global statistics and given a rating based on fan feedback. Unlike the IAFD, it is the fans themselves that help to keep this site up to date and relevant. Simply by registering an account, you can join the community of legions of porn fans reviewing, voting, commenting on and following the hottest porn stars; well, female porn stars anyway.
There is a great advanced search feature which allows you to find stars using a variety of filters including ethnicity, county of origin and physical attributes. Once the results are returned there is a coding system to indicate their profession (Actress, Adult Model, Centerfold, Musician, Sportswoman, TV Host etc).
FreeOnes has won plenty of industry awards to recognize its services to the fans of the adult movie business and was voted XBiz Fan Site of the Year for the 6th time in 2019.
We think the FreeOnes site is an invaluable tool to search up the best porn stars and the fact that you get a lot of free content to boot makes this our next best pick.
However, the site does fall short of providing that all important information on more detailed biography; enter our next selection, Boobpedia….
Boobpedia
Together, both IAFD and FreeOnes provide great links, stats and filmography, plus some broad details on personal history.
Just like its namesake, Wikipedia, Boobpedia is a user-edited encyclopedia of women. Originally set up to honor just those with big breasts, the site now covers all kinds of adult industry stars and even includes hot celebrities from other walks of life as well as some cam models.
An aggregated site of free information, much of the data is taken from entries on Wikipedia as well as other mainstream sites but, to this end, it does end up providing a lot more detail when it comes to the biographies.
As well as the detail, you also get a snapshot of the stars vital stats, filmography and often some trivia and external links to where you can find further information and/or free content.
The site also has its own community and you can ‘discuss’ any of the stars featured on their pages as well as request an article on a missing performer.
Content is organised into categories and there are internal links between films, titles and porn stars so you can cross-reference your research as you go, much like with any Wiki site.
The search function is basic but does return anything which contains your keywords and often you will find that relevant links have all been aggregated under one category. For example, search for ‘Japanese’ and you will be given a list of subcategories and pages such as:
- List of Japanese Actresses
- List of Japanese Exotic Dancers
- List of Japanese Adult Video Actresses
Overall, between these top three porn directories you should find that most angles are covered from content and stats to personal bios, filmography and website/social media links.
Best of the Rest Porn Star Directories
So, with the top three sites covering all angles, why would you need any more porn star directories? Well, these are only our selections for the best out there but there are a dozen or so alternatives that you might find useful to fill in any gaps or find a more obscure model/performer. Certainly, there are some directories that offer a more niche selection from different countries and others which simply offer additional information than you might find using the three sites listed above.
AdultDVDTalk
www.adultdvdtalk.com/adtalk/info/pornstars.asp
With 3.25 million visitors each month, Adult DVD Talk is a popular industry website where fans can find out all about the latest releases as well as discuss and research old porn films and stars.
Their database covers actors, directors and movie titles as well as including reviews, interviews, official websites and free galleries. Those stars who are members on the site have their own profile which includes details of any contributions they have made to the forums. There aren’t that many porn stars who actually manager their own accounts on Adult DVD Talk but these do include some big names like Bobbi Starr, Ava Addams and Stormy Daniels.
The rest of their database results will simply return a basic list of movies they are tagged in, any links to social media along with tabs which will direct you to active forum discussions, reviews and galleries.
Because Adult DVD Talk has some exclusive interviews and forum discussions, this is a useful place to look up your favorite porn star as well as get some free content.
DefineBabe
The Define Babe website not only covers porn stars but also includes cam models and amateurs plus other sexy celebrities who may have appeared in the online adult industry. In all, you will find more than 11,000 babes on their database and accompanying pics, clips and bios.
The search functionality here isn’t great and you have to know the name of the star you are looking for if you want to find someone. You can’t simply ask for a list of all brunette porn stars born between 1991 and 1998 for example. However, you can browse their list of Top 100 Babes as well as by most recent content upload.
Information on stars is also pretty limited and the summary includes some very basic stats such as measurements, date of birth and country of origin. However, if you are looking for some more obscure adult models, particularly those from the world of online cams then this might be a good place to search for some extra free content.
Adult Film Database
Results from the Adult Film Database are similar in style to that which you will find on the IAFD; namely, a filmography with cross-referenced scene pairings. However, you will also get a snapshot of other information including Trivia, social media links and any entries on Wikipedia, IMDb and official websites. There are also free clips and pics to explore plus the basic bio information on appearance, attributes and origin. Where the site has found any relevant articles on the porn star, links to these are also available.
All in all, the results here bely the initial home page where it looks a little ‘basic’. Head into the advanced search tool and you will find that you can actually search for a performer using a good selection of criteria including by:
- Race
- Ethnicity
- Eye/Hair Color
- Height
- Age
- Birthday
- Genre of Porn
Babes And Stars
This slick little directory is not the biggest but it does cover the main porn stars currently active on the U.S. and European circuits.
There’s the nice addition of an advanced search tool which allows you to refine your hunt for a porn star using criteria such as:
- Year of Birth (range)
- Eye/Hair Color
- Ethnicity
- Country of Birth
- Height, Weight and Boobs Size
In all, Babes and Stars has more than 32,000 videos and 81,000 pics available to view.
Barelist
The Barelist has been growing in popularity over the last couple of years and is now seen as a major player in the world of adult directory websites. With 1.65 million monthly visitors, the platform offers free pic and clip galleries, interviews with porn stars and cam models as well as regular feature articles and blogs.
Their directory is pretty comprehensive and well-designed with some handy widgets which link directly to a star’s Twitter feed so you can get the latest on their social media when you search them up.
As with most of these main directories, the profile page of each star contains a summary of their vital stats, career highlights and physical attributes plus a brief write up on the biography. You will also get a snapshot of each model’s popularity plus links to other official sites including some additional social media platforms.
Below this you will also get a full list of picture and video galleries where you can find free content for your chosen star. This comes with a handy ‘sort’ feature which allows you to order the list by age, format and content type as well as by studio.
Barelist has a simple and easy to use advanced search tool which lets you find porn stars using a variety of filters including ethnicity, age, height, weight, cup size and hair color.
Overall, a great little engine for finding porn stars with some decent free content that differs from some other directories.
My Pornstar Book
My Pornstar Books offers a far simple set of results when you look up a porn star. A clean interface with a basic search bar, you get an at-a-glance profile with:
- Country of Origin
- Date of Birth
- Height
- Career Status
In an accompanying box, there is a write up with some of the main highlights of their career.
Scroll down and you will then find a list of free pics you can find featuring this star which can be filtered by category (hardcore, interracial, threesome etc).
Porn stars are also cataloged alphabetically so you can browse this way but there is no advanced search feature here.
Simple, effective and an easy to navigate site, it’s got some advertising but is not overly cluttered with banners and ads. Certainly worth adding to the list.
Kelly Find
Another comprehensive directory of the main porn stars, at Kelly Find you will get a basic bio with some headline stats including measurements, height, weight, ethnicity, eye and hair color as well as a write up on their main career highlights.
Beyond this, there is a simple profile pic, popularity ranking (from their own algorithm) plus any social media and official website links.
Scroll down and you should get links for any free movies and pics that are available elsewhere on the web.
Cataloged alphabetically, you can search by name or using filters for ethnicity, age, hair color and bust size. In total you can find more than 9,200 models using this porn star directory which does include some cam models and male performers.
Babepedia
This directory may not offer the most comprehensive database of porn stars on our list nor is it the most functional in terms of advanced search features. However, it does have some nice content which has been user-uploaded and is pretty easy to use with a clean design and responsive site.
Each profile includes some basic stats along with any social media links to services like Twitter, Instagram and official websites. There is also a user ranking which you need to be registered for in order to vote.
Scroll down the page and you will find clips, pics and links as well as any feature articles that have appeared on the Babepedia blog.
Overall, you wont find too many obscure performers on this site nor will the information enlighten you much on their career or personal lives but it is yet another place to find good free content.
Main Babes
The Main Babes directory isn’t the most comprehensive of databases to find information on your favorite porn star but it does offer some nice free gallery listings of pics and clips. Some of this content is different to those found on other directories which is why we’ve included it here. However, if you are looking for biography or detailed stats and information then you wont find it on Main Babes.
dbNaked
Another fairly basic porn star directory, the information you can find on dbNaked is pretty limited and your results will just provide you with some basic stats. However, just like with Main Babes, there is some pretty good content here and their listing is comprehensive.
Filter performers by ranking, # of comments, # of views or most recent uploads and you can find around 1,300 adult stars on their database.
Again, another way to find some free content along with some simple facts.
Free Tube Site Porn Star Databases
In addition to all of those listed above, each of the main porn tube hosting sites also offer a directory of the stars you can find on their site. We’ve picked the top four porn star directories from some of the most popular adult tube sites.
XVideos
www.xvideos.com/pornstars-index/list
The XVideos porn star directory is a really useful database of adult content performers and features the details of more than 16,000 porn stars, cam girls and models….all women.
Each performer has their own ‘Channel’ where you can find all of the free content that is hosted on the XVideos site. From here you can opt to ‘Subscribe’ to their feed so you never miss an upload or update.
There Channel page also has several tabs which give you further details and information about their career and content, including:
- Activity – A bit like a news feed, from here you can see which videos the porn star has appeared (and been tagged) in, uploaded and claimed.
- Videos and Photos – These are all content that the star has uploaded themselves.
- Comments – See what fans and friends are saying about your chosen porn star and join in the conversation.
- RED – This is a premium service and features full-length clips which you must be a RED member to view. Subscription costs $10 a month and allows you to watch any VIP content as well as go ad-free.
- Friends and Fans – See a list of XVideos members who also subscribe to your chosen porn star’s channel.
Then there is the ‘About Me’ tab which provides a brief overview of the performer’s performance across the XVideos site including stats about video views, world rankings and profile hits.
In the case of active adult performers, these pages are often run by the stars themselves so there is usually a brief statement about themselves which can, and often does, include contact information.
Finally, XVideos also summarizes the key words most frequently used to tag content featuring that star plus a list of those studios they have worked with.
It’s a comprehensive directory which can be used to find stars by name, country and by popularity.
Founded in 2015 and the number one adult website in the world, XVideos has one of the best selections of free porn content so this should definitely be in your bookmark bar.
Pornhub
Whilst the Pornhub directory covers a similar number of adult film stars to that of XVideos, it doesn’t have the same level of detail. Nor do you have porn stars ‘claiming’ their channels and contributing to the feeds. However, what you do get is a collection of content, some brief stats and details along with information about how they rank in terms of popularity on the site. There is also a write up for each porn star which is usually very effusive about their assets and talents on screen!
Just like with XVideos, you can subscribe to a porn stars profile and add them to your favorites so you don’t miss any new content. You will need to register an account to do this which is free to do.
Where there is an official site associated with that porn star then a link will be provided.
In terms of search functionality you can enter their name or browse alphabetically or by:
- Most Popular
- Trending
- Most Viewed
- Most Subscribed
- of Videos
As well as adult film stars there are also cam models and amateurs available to search on Pornhub too.
XHamster
https://xhamster.com/pornstars
The directory at XHamster is as comprehensive to that of both Pornhub and XVideos and contains links to all the content across its platform that you can view for your chosen star.
You can also subscribe to a porn star so you receive alerts when new content is uploaded. However, there is very little in the way of detail.
Search functionally too is also limited but you can browse alphabetically, by top porn stars or by their name.
You Porn
You Porn offers another way to find free content across its site by porn star and you can browse alphabetically or by name to find some brief bio information. Like Pornhub you also get access to any official website links, popularity ranking details plus the option to subscribe for updates.
Galleries of clip thumbnails will also appear in your search results along with a summary of the most frequent keywords being used to tag their content.
Specialist Porn Star Databases
And finally, we bring you a selection of those porn star databases that are slightly more specialist for that niche search you might have.
JavLibrary
Whilst most of the directories we’ve listed above are concentrated on the European and North American markets, the Japanese Adult Video industry is huge. Even sites like Pornhub, XVideos and XHamster don’t really scratch the surface, particularly when it comes to more obscure JAV stars.
Which is where the JAV Library comes in handy. Okay, so it might not be the most functional in terms of search criteria but it does have one of the most comprehensive listings of Japanese porn stars. You won’t find any bio details or stats but you will be able to locate additional content.
Stars are listed alphabetically or you can search by name or by ranking.
Define Fetish
Covering over 4,000 fetish porn stars, Define Fetish is the go-to directory if you want to know more about kink performers.
Each model has their own page which contains some basic stats and details plus sites where you can find their featured content. In addition, you can also find tabs with galleries, videos, DVDs and links.
The search facility is basic here and you have to know the name of the star you are looking for or you can browse alphabetically.
European Pornstars
If you are trying to find information on a European porn star then this service could provide you with the answers you are looking for. The details may not always be the most comprehensive and it could certainly be expanded in our opinion. However, what you do get is sample pics and clips with some links to official studio and network sites that might give you more information.
Definitely one to use if you are searching for an obscure Russian or Latvian star.
PornTeenGirl
And lastly, an interesting little directory of porn stars (and other adult entertainment performers) where the ladies are all known for their legal teen work. The information returned from a search includes contact details and websites where you can find their work as well as their agency (where appropriate).
There is also an index of the content they have been involved in plus some basic stats and bio details plus a link to the forum thread where other fans may be discussing their work.
It’s a niche little directory that will appeal to anyone who is searching for teen porn stars from both the United States and across Europe.
