[edit] Biography
Paloma grew up in Walnut, California and is of Italian ancestry.[1] Her stage name comes from Gia, a 1998 movie in which Angelina Jolie played model Gia Carangi, and Paloma, the Spanish word for dove and the name of Pablo Picasso's daughter.[2]
Paloma originally worked at a Starbucks before doing porn.[3] She got into the business because she needed money and also to get back at an ex-boyfriend.[1] Known for her aggressive double penetrations and edgy sex scenes, Paloma has made her mark for her willingness to try anything in her videos.[2]
Paloma overdosed on cocaine in January 2005 in which her pulse increased to over three times a "normal" rate. She recovered quickly and returned to signing autographs at an Anabolic booth the next day, followed by an appearance at the AVN Awards (where she received a trophy for "Best All-Girl Sex Scene").[4]
Paloma was a contract director for a company called New Boundaries in 2005.[1] She signed a performing contract with Extreme Associates while still in the middle of her directing contract.[5] She ended her contract with Extreme Associates in May of 2006.[6]
Paloma has directed four titles so far, three were included in her series, "Nasty, Hard Sex" and the collaborative title with her ex-husband, Coffee Ron, entitled "Domestic Disturbance".[7]
Gia Paloma ended a four year run of adult performances in February of 2007. She now works as a full time make up artist. She has a short appearance in Charlie Band's "Decadent Evil 2", in the opening credits, and a full role in John Lechago's "Biolslime" as a character by the name of Annie. Both are non sex roles in feature length horror movies. Paloma is working with Doug Sakman for his upcoming Horror-Porn featurette, Evil Head.[citation needed]
Gia Paloma married Naughty America director, and ex adult performer, Tommy Pistol in December of 2007. They are welcoming their first child in the summer of 2008.[citation needed]
