Over the course of her 16-year career, Kelly has appeared in over 600 pornographic movies. While she is best known for her work in adult movies, she has also made appearances in mainstream Hollywood productions, including Spike Lee's He Got Game and Orgazmo.
Kelly started out as a stripper at Baby Dolls in Ontario, California,[3] first performing at the age of fifteen with false identification. After she broke up with her then-boyfriend, he informed the club of her true age, which prompted them to fire her. When Kelly turned 18 she returned to the club, commenting that "they didn't even recognize me."[2]
She later did live sex shows with Tiffany Million at the O'Farrell Theatre in San Francisco,[2] and the two took a trip to Las Vegas to see the AVN Awards show in 1993.[4]
Kelly's first acting role was in the 1991 action-adventure film The Roller Blade Seven, directed by Donald G. Jackson and produced by Scott Shaw. She went on to appear in non-erotic roles in several other films with Jackson and Shaw.
Kelly started her own production company in October 1998.[3] In April 2005 Penthouse magazine acquired the assets of Jill Kelly Productions, which had filed for bankruptcy. Penthouse paid $1.765 million for the entire JKP back catalogue and nearly 60 unreleased features.[5]
She met fellow pornographic actor Cal Jammer in 1993 at the above-noted CES convention and married him a month later.[6] Kelly separated from Jammer due to his infidelities off-camera, which she called "the deal breaker."[7] Jammer took the separation hard, committing suicide by shooting himself with a gun on the road in front of Kelly's house.[8]
She has described herself as bisexual.[3]
