Dana DeArmond (born June 16, 1979 in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, USA) is a pornographic actress who entered the industry in 2004 at the age of 24.[3]

During her teen years, DeArmond was a figure skater; she was in the same skating club as Sunny Lane.[4] DeArmond had worked as a street dancer at Disney World and as a stripper in Florida and California before doing bondage play on the Web and then hardcore movies.[2] DeArmond had gained huge popularity even before she jumped in front of a camera as an internet personality with over 500,000 friends on Myspace.[5] Dana asserts on her myspace that TheInternetsGirlfriend.com is her official website and that she is not affiliated with any other website.[6]

She is unapologetically straight edge, saying "I was that happy-go-lucky drunk stripper. I didn't have any schedule and I could party all the time and do whatever I wanted. But then I quit drinking and became focused on that. I became fixated on wanting to be sober and wanting to change my life and wanting to get my shit together."[3]

After DeArmond's house and belongings were destroyed in a fire in January 2007, the adult industry participated in several fundraising activities to help replace what she lost.[7]

DeArmond was one of the models featured in Michael Grecco's photo book, Naked Ambition: An R Rated Look at an X Rated Industry[8] and Dave Naz's book L.A. Bondage.[9]

DeArmond has guest lectured on the adult industry for classes at University of California, Irvine and University of California, Santa Barbara.[10] She is good friends with fellow pornstar, Belladonna.[11][12]
