Brittni De La Mora (née Ruiz;[1][2] born 1987[3]), known professionally as Jenna Presley, is an American former pornographic film actress.[4][1] After leaving the pornographic film industry in 2012, she became an evangelical Christian preacher in San Diego.[5]

Pornographic film career

[edit]

While in college and working at a Santa Barbara strip club, a few producers asked De La Mora if she was interested in making "romance movies".[4] De La Mora entered the adult film industry in September 2005 when she was 18 years old under the name Jenna Presley.[2] In 2010, she was named by Maxim as one of the 12 top female stars in porn.[6] Complex ranked her 17th on its list of "The Top 100 Hottest Porn Stars (Right Now)" in 2011.[7]

During her time in the adult film industry, Presley used crystal meth, heroin, and cocaine (to try to lose weight), as well as ecstasy and oxycontin.[2] She witnessed her boyfriend being fatally stabbed by a motorcycle gang.[4]

Inspired by Rachel Collins, a Christian pastor at XXXChurch, De La Mora left the adult film industry in December 2012 after she completed her last scene in Las Vegas.[2][8]

Evangelical preaching

[edit]

After leaving the pornographic film industry in 2012, De La Mora began preaching at the evangelical Cornerstone Church of San Diego.[9][5] In August 2013, she appeared on The View with Craig Gross, a pastor at XXXChurch, to discuss her conversion to Christianity.[1]

Personal life

[edit]

She married Richard De La Mora, a pastor at Cornerstone Church, in 2016.[9] As of 2018, they reside in San Diego.[5][10]
