Justine Joli (born July 16, 1980) is the stage name of an American adult model and pornographic actress.

Early life

Joli grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, splitting her summers between a farm in Hannibal, Missouri and Crested Butte, Colorado.^[2] She studied ballet from age 3 to age 15.^[2][5]

Career

In 2000, Joli was working in the Glendale Galleria when she was noticed by porn director Kris Kramski and asked if she was interested in doing some modeling. Joli claims that Kramski's ulterior motive was to get her into a threesome with him and his girlfriend, but that she was only interested in the girlfriend and not him.^[5][6][7] Joli did not end up working with Kramski, but Kramski did pass her audition photos along to adult industry talent scout Roy Garcia, who promptly found work for her in adult modeling and films.^[6] Her first shoot was with Stephen Hicks.^[2] Joli notes that her mother drove her to her audition and all of her jobs for the first six months of her career because, "I was terrified to drive there".^[7][8]

At the beginning of her career, she worked extensively in men's magazines, appearing in numerous issues of Penthouse and Hustler, shooting six days a week for six months.^[2] She appeared on the cover of the March 2002 issue of Hustler and was the September 2007 Penthouse Pet of the Month.^[9] Joli was named Penthouse Pet of the Year Runner-Up in the May Issue of Penthouse Magazine. She was also a popular web model, appearing on sites such as ALS Scan, Matt's Models, and Danni's Hard Drive.^[3]

Her first film shoot was for Andrew Blake.^[2] During her first several years in adult films, she appeared mainly under the name 'Swan' and 'Hope', though in her appearances in Blake's films, she appeared simply as Justine. Eventually, she adopted the name Justine Joli. "Joli" was a pet name she had for one of her old lovers and means "pretty" in French, while "Justine" comes from her obsession with the Marquis de Sade character, Justine.^[7]

In her early work, under the name Swan, she typically had light blonde hair, a schoolgirlish appearance, wore relatively little makeup, and often wore glasses. In later work, under the name Justine or Justine Joli, she has red hair, a glamour or fashion model look, and is more heavily made up and fashionably dressed.^[3]

Joli describes herself as bisexual (being "60/40" in her preference toward men and women, respectively)^[5][10][11] in real life and is particularly noted as a girl-girl actress in adult films. As of 2007, she has not done any boy-girl scenes in an adult film, stating "I'm not comfortable doing boy/girl".^[5] However, early in her career, she did do explicit heterosexual photoset with porn photographer Peter Romero for the website POV Porn,^[3] though these photos were later removed from the site at her request. Joli also appears alone in many movies and photosets, either as a glamour or fetish model or in solo masturbation scenes. She has also done some BDSM porn and in her personal life she has described herself as "hardcore sub".^[5]

In 2014, Joli retired from performing in adult films. She stated in a 2015 AVN magazine article that she plans to also shout down her website which sells video clips of her work.^[12]

Appearances

Joli has appeared twice on The Howard Stern Show^[13] and three times on The Opie and Anthony Show.^[13][14][15]

Joli also captured in Edouard Salier's short movie, "Flesh" which describes the life and death of Manhattan during a fictional 9/11. She also appeared (along with porn stars Charlotte Stokely, Charmane Star, Erika Vution, and Stacey Adams) in the blaxploitation spoof Black Dynamite.^[16] She stars on the 2010 Nerdcore Horror Calendar.

Joli was cast in the role of Caligula's wife, Caesonia, in the Off Broadway theatre production Caligula Maximus, scheduled to run at New York's Ellen Stewart Theatre in March–April 2010. She garnered the role after working as a burlesque dancer at a New York performance venue run by Randy Weiner, the play's co-producer and co-writer.^[17]

Other ventures

As of 2014, Joli is the owner and operator of a medical marijuana business called Green Fairy Edibles which produces infused beef jerky. She stated in an April 2015 article that she supplies as much as 1,000 ounces of jerky to marijuana dispensaries a month.^[12]

Personal life

Joli is a self described geek with a love of anime, science fiction, Macs, Camping and cartoons. She is also into nude sports, such as naked bungee jumping and naked whitewater rafting.^[7][18] She was romantically involved with porn director D. Cypher for several years.^[7][11]
