	Actors - Pixie

Pixie (born January 28, 1979) is a popular English glamour model and lesbian porn star, though now retired. Born in Essex, England, she is half Cape Malay, with a look that has often been compared to Victoria Beckham and Björk. With her short dark hair and petite frame — standing 5'1½" (1.56 m) tall — she bucks the conventions of how glamour models should look.

Early career

Her start came in 1998 when as a psychology student at Goldsmith's College, she replied to an advert placed in The Stage newspaper by photographer Paul Markham. She chose the pseudonym Nadia and has also been known as Nadia Star, Nadia Nicolas and Pixie. Her first name was disclosed — against her will — by Fiona Cooper when they released her video as Andrea. Other photographers she worked with early in her career include Terry Munns, Viv Thomas and Marcus Allen. The latter's test shoot was seized by the vice squad.

Popularity

Before long, Nadia appeared on the covers of Men Only and Club magazines, and was voted the latter's Girl of the Year for 1999. Many of these early shoots were taken by Bob Twigg, in places such as Alicante and Tenerife. Television followed, with Nadia featuring in an episode of Sky One's Weekender, Garry Bushell's Bushell 2000 satellite programme, and The Big Breakfast. But it was Planet Nadia for TVX: The Fantasy Channel that won her the most attention. Directed by Anna Span — a member of Feminists Against Censorship — the 13 girl/girl episodes were filmed in houses around London and showed Nadia naturalistically, talking and being herself.

She interviewed Mani from Primal Scream for Club and was a dancer on the videos for Rui da Silva's "Touch Me" and Victoria Beckham's "Not Such an Innocent Girl". When Add N to (X) made an adult video starring her and another British star, Layla Jade, for their single "Plug Me In" it received broadsheet newspaper attention.

Nadia was interviewed in The Face and appeared in Sky magazine. She discovered the Yahoo! Groups fansite HyperCuteNadia in 2001 and became an enthusiastic contributor, displaying a willingness to engage with her fans as equals rather than assuming an attitude that separated her from her peers.

Los Angeles 2001

Nadia was photographed in Jamaica and New York by Rudeboy, and in 2001 made her first trip to Los Angeles. At this time her hair was shoulder length. The nearest she ever came to boy/girl videos comes from this period, in the form of online videos with Mark Davis and Eric Everhard for Suze Randall's website, and foot fetish videos for Hustler and Ed Powers. Part of her appeal to English fans was that she never did boy/girl. Her fans were divided between those who were glad she had not done it, and those who wished she would. She had actually already done several boy/girl photo shoots, but they were not available or known about at the time. In LA she also worked with Scott St. James, Clive McLean, Matt's Model and the models Justine, Terri Summers, and Belladonna amongst others.

Nadia returned home from L.A. disillusioned with the industry and vowing to launch her own website which would give a more positive portrayal of sex. After a trip to Paris in August 2001 — at which point she had a mullet haircut and chin stud and made two of her best but least seen videos — she left the industry for around a year.

2002 / 2003

Pixie — as she now was known — returned in late 2002, and started posting on the AkaNadia message board. The next year, up until autumn 2003, was to be perhaps her busiest period and the most productive. She made another series of Planet Nadia, this time directed by Andy Ide, and an episode of Alias Kelle Marie. He also filmed her own film, Pixie-Led, which has yet to be released. Pixie was one of the faces of TVX: The Fantasy Channel, appearing in adverts on the station and in The Daily Star and Sunday Sport. She appeared on the cover of the Sonic Mook Experiment Vol.3 album. She was interviewed in Sleazenation and Arena, which included her in their list of the six hottest and most influential porn stars.
