Vanessa Blake
Born on February 16, 1985, in Orange County, California, Vanessa Blake entered the adult industry around 2008 at the age of 23. Over a career spanning roughly nine years, she worked under several names, including Brittany Santangelo and Jessica Johnson, before settling on her primary stage name.
Career Overview
Vanessa carved out a niche as a curvy model in an industry that was increasingly making room for performers outside conventional body types during the late 2000s and 2010s. Standing 5 feet 3 inches with measurements of 34-33-43, she built a following in the plus size and big ass modeling categories. Her work included both mainstream plus size modeling and adult content production, and she appeared across various studios and independent platforms throughout her active years.
Active Years and Output
Vanessa's professional window ran from approximately 2008 through 2017, placing her career squarely within a transitional period for the adult industry as it shifted from DVD-centric distribution toward streaming and creator-driven platforms. During this stretch she maintained a consistent presence, producing content across multiple formats. Her natural physique and brunette look distinguished her within the curvy performer category, where she found steady work for nearly a decade.
Post-Retirement Presence
Although her primary period of active studio work appears to have ended around 2017, Vanessa has maintained an online presence through social media and content subscription platforms. This pattern is common among performers of her era who transitioned from traditional studio work to independent content creation as the industry landscape evolved. She continues to operate accounts where she engages with an audience built during her professional years.
Industry Context
Vanessa Blake's career coincided with a period of growing visibility for curvy and plus size performers in adult entertainment. The late 2000s and early 2010s saw studios increasingly producing content that featured a wider range of body types, and performers like Vanessa benefited from that shift. Her nine-year run represents a solid stretch of activity in a field where many careers are considerably shorter.
