How did you start within the industry?
Reina Ryder: I’ve always been super comfortable with my sexuality. I worked as a dominatrix in New York under the name Mistress Alixandria, and when I moved to Florida for college, some of my submissives followed suite. Still working as a dom, I also began dancing at strip clubs. As we all know, some days aren’t so good at the club…so I was always looking for the next hustle. That’s when we had a pornstar feature at one of the clubs I performed at and I had such a moment of realization. It was just like, okay so I love having sex, I love being on camera, and I love making money. BOOM! A porn star was born.
How did you create the name?
Reina Ryder: I’m Puerto Rican so I grew up in a household that spoke only Spanish and Spanglish. My family always called me “mi Reina” which means “my Queen”. I also love throwing it back on some dick so I thought Ryder was a nice fit. Reina Ryder just has a nice ring to it. I thought it was a brandable name and you can easily spit it out in some dope rap verse
What do you enjoy most about being a pornstar?
Reina Ryder: I love that Im my own boss, I can control my own schedule and I can travel and see new places! I also truly enjoy all the amazing experiences and new things I get to try along with the freedom i have to express myself.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years’ time?
Reina Ryder: I really don’t know yet.. I can’t see that far into the future!

Hopefully my paintings have a successful store and I’ve established a streetwear line!

What would you change about the adult industry?
Reina Ryder: I would change the dislike for gay or trans talents, the pay difference for talents of color, and the dislike of talents with tattoos.
Have you ever been grossed out during a shoot, and if so how did you handle it?
Reina Ryder: It’s always important to wipe yourself before you shoot any scene and I think that’s pretty known knowledge in this industry. It’s just out of respect as well as consideration! I haven’t shot with anyone that I was grossed out by thank the porn gods.
Has the stigma around the adult industry affected you?
Reina Ryder: I was lucky to have a strong friend group that was ecstatic about me doing porn. Dating was awful. I had a relationship where the guy didn’t want to touch me or see me for a day or two after a shoot and we would always argue about his insecurities. I had a relationship where the guy manipulated me into believing I owed him some kind of money or gifts for “allowing” me to do porn. It’s really hard to find someone who can respect you and see outside of this shit stigma. Sex work is WORK. Most people outside of the industry can’t understand that there’s a huge difference between love and sex.
Are there any sex acts that you want to shoot?
Reina Ryder: A fuck machine and a gangbang scene would both be so dope.

Reina Ryder: Outside of the industry I love to paint. I call my art “erotic pop art” and I spend a lot of time just painting on my balcony and lighting up a joint or four.
Do you use sex toys? If so which ones?
Reina Ryder: Me and my vibrator are besties! I also have a bunch of different dildos I’ll fuck myself with.
What's the weirdest thing that you’ve been asked to do during a shoot?
Reina Ryder: Oh god I did this cannibal fetish shoot in Vegas a while back. It was all implied stuff, more acting than anything else. I got tied up, put on a silver platter with an apple in my mouth, basted with olive oil, and put in a big fake oven with red LED lights and asked to scream. Super fun shoot to perform in! Lots of laughs!
Do you watch porn? If so what type?
Reina Ryder: Being an actress in porn myself, I feel like I can’t really get off to porn. I subscribe to some amateur couples on onlyfans and a I’ll watch a lot of hentai.
To date which porn scene are you most proud of, and why?
Reina Ryder: I’m so proud of all my scenes! I can’t decide ahhh! I’m just gonna pick my scene with MOFOS, “Pussy Trap”, where I got stuck in a cat tree… That was pretty hilarious.
If you were interviewing a pornstar what would you ask them?
Reina Ryder: I would ask where they’re from, if they smoke and what was the moment when they realized they wanted to get into adult film
What really turns you on?
Reina Ryder: Eye contact is super hot. I feel like I can look in someone’s eyes and tell whether or not they’re about to ravage me. Also choking, like if you grab my throat I’m soaked on sight.
