Hey, meet Asa Akira, the badass born in January '85 in NYC to Japanese parents. She kicked off at 19 as a dominatrix—talk about owning the whip—then shook her ass at the NY Hustler Club. In 2006, she was Bubba the Love Sponge's filthy 'Show Whore.' Gina Lynn dragged her into porn for those steamy debut scenes. Pure Asian fire, she's Complex's pick for top 50 hottest Asian stars ever, nailing fetish gigs like a pro. From 2013-14, she grabbed the reins directing her own nasty flicks, racking up awards that'll make your head spin—six AVN nods in 2012 alone. Who's got her on speed dial?
