Brittany CoxXx (born July 19,[8] 1978[7]) is the stage name of a pornographic actress currently working in transsexual pornography. CoxXx was born as Adrian Cortez[2] and had a successful career in gay pornography under the name Stonie before transitioning from male to female. Pre transtition she performed in more than 60 productions, appeared on nearly 50 box covers, and was nominated for the 2001 GayVN Award in the "Best Newcomer" category.[5] Some fame was also gained due to a cameo appearance in the 2006 movie Borat.[2][4][9][10][11] After transitioning, she was nominated for the "Transsexual Performer Of The Year" title at the 2009 AVN Awards, whilst the film in which she starred, Brittany's Transformation, was nominated in the "Best Transsexual Release" category.[12][13] More recently, she has been battling Hepatitis B[14] but is recovering[15] and as of September 2010 has begun re-engaging with the adult industry.[16]

Gay porn career

Brittany as she appeared as Stonie in gay pornography

Brittany appeared in gay pornography under the name Stonie beginning in 1999 with an association with GayVN Hall of Fame director Paul Barresi.[17] By 2006 her career had included more than 60 productions and involved every major gay porn studio.[2] Accolades included being described as the Kate Moss of gay porn[3] and "the boy with the hottest ass"[2] – in fact, Mickey Skee described the star as having "one of the hottest asses in the business since Joey Stefano's"[18] whilst Jason Sechrest described the star as an "insatiable super bottom with an unparalleled sex drive".[5] According to one report, "Fans adore starring [sic] at [Stonie's] massive package and tight ass while he hangs with his homeboyz, macks on collegiate cuties or follow orders from his dictatorial daddies,"[3] a description that covers the major genres of Stonie's work. Stonie's "package" measured 8 inches and appeared particularly large on the star's small frame.[18] In playing roles subservient to "dictatorial daddies" (that is, films with authoritarian, discipline, or military themes), Stonie was well-matched with Barresi, as Adult Video News has said Barresi's directorial efforts make him "undisputedly the king of military-themed videos."[19]

Many of the authoritarian videos were made with Barresi and his Regiment Productions studio (such as Brig Brats,[20] Carnal Cadets,[21] and Wild Blue,[22]) though a spanking fetish video was also filmed with Control-T Studios[23] and a bondage video Roped Trick with Tom "Ropes" McGurk.[24] Stonie appeared in a scene with J.T. Sloan, the 1995 GayVN Gay Performer of the Year, in the 2000 Pacific Sun Entertainment production Daddy Please![25] Working with All Worlds Video, Stonie made White Lies,[26] Father Figure,[27] appearing with GayVN Award and two-time Grabby Award-winner Sam Crockett. Stonie was also featured in the film's sequel, Father Figure 2.[28] For Catalina Video, Stonie appeared in a threeway with Jason Sizemore.[29] The two also appeared together in the Studio 2000 production Straight Up.[30] Stonie's career included appearances on nearly 50 box covers.[5]

A nomination was received in the "Best Newcomer" category in the 2001 GayVN Awards,[5] losing to Caesar. The two stars appeared together in the Men of Odyssey production Caesar's Hardhat Gang Bang, which won the 2001 GayVN Award for "Best Ethnic-Themed Video".[31]

Borat cameo

Borat was a 2006 mockumentary comedy film that was a critical and commercial success, but which was also highly controversial. In what was described as one of the best sight gags in the film,[1] the central character Borat Sagdiyev shows photographs of himself with his allegedly 13-year-old son Hooeylewis, portrayed by Stonie,[2][9][10][11] to an etiquette coach.[32] In one such photo, "a naked Stonie is cradling his Dad in his arms" whilst in another "Borat [is] squatting down giving the thumbs-up sign to a close-up of shot of his son's large endowment".[33]

RadarOnline republished the Radar magazine report on the porn star appearing as Borat's son:[9]

Borat's producers first contacted [Stonie's Manager, David Forest] in June 2005, he tells Radar. "They wanted to find someone who would look 13 or 14 but was actually of legal age and would do frontal nudity," he recalls. Cortez immediately sprang to mind, he says, because "he's a small-framed boy but has a large organ." How large? "About eight inches, and thick."

Commenting on the appearance, Queerty noted that, despite Borat exploiting "his son's genitals",[34] Sacha Baron Cohen did not invite Stonie to the premiere of Borat. Forest did comment that the star "earned far more for [the Borat] photo session than he would've if it had been for an adult company. We got paid a good sum of money."[35]

Brittany's transition

The last gay porn appearances were filmed around 2005,[2] though these works continued to be released until 2006.[1] At the start of 2008,agent David Forest[6] announced that the star would now be performing in transsexual porn under the stage name Brittany CoxXx.[36] After a year-long transition process involving hormones and breast surgery, Brittany emerged as a trans woman;[10] in an interview with Jason Sechrest, Brittany confirmed that she still has her penis.[11] Brittany's first performance was in the production Brittany's Transformation, which was directed by Paul Barresi[37] who had also directed much of Stonie's work in gay porn.[1] J. C. Adams, who has been writing about gay pornography since at least 1998, commented that Brittany's transsexual performance "may actually be the first time a gay adult performer has undergone the switch and re-emerged as a MTF actor. (Others have donned drag, of course, but that’s a different animal.)"[1] Jason Sechrest confirmed that Brittany was the first to move from gay male to trans woman porn star, describing the movie as "groundbreaking".[5] Lucas Entertainment performer Christina Cruz (formerly Christian Cruz) has since followed Brittany by also transitioning for the gay male market to the transsexual market.[38] According to Gay Porn Times editor J. C. Adams, the report of Brittany's transition[1] was in the top ten most popular stories they covered in 2008.[39]

The film Brittany's Transformation told the story of her transitioning, and was well received. Barresi put together the financing for the film, decided to include older footage of Stonie to tell her transition story, and described the film as unlike any transsexual movie made before.[40] The film was nominated in the 2009 AVN Awards in the category of "Best Transsexual Release", whilst Brittany herself was nominated in the "Transsexual Performer Of The Year" category.[12][13] America’s Next Top Tranny 2 took the Best Transsexual release award, whilst the Transsexual Performer Of The Year went to Wendy Williams,[41] who had been a nominee in 2006,[42] 2007,[43] and 2008.[44] Speaking of Brittany's Transformation, CoxXx commented that "since this is my first movie as a woman – in my new bod, which I totally love by the way – it's a whole new experience onscreen for myself and for the viewers".[45] Brittany was partnered with Christian XXX (who worked in gay porn under the name Maxx Diesel) in the final scene of the film.

CoxXx left the adult industry in 2009 and moved to Florida, where she spent several months in hospital battling Hepatitis B and liver disease.[14] By January 2010, her hepatitis was reported to be almost undetectable and she was recovering well.[15] By September, Brittany was reported as fully recovered and made a live appearance at Micky's in West Hollywood, California,[46] apparently stealing the show.[16]
