If you haven’t heard the name Thea Daze yet, you’re about to. The captivating trans performer and all-around creative force has just made a major move, signing with the powerhouse POC and LGBTQ-owned agency, Flaming Hearts Media (FHM). This partnership isn’t just another contract; it’s a signal flare for a star on a meteoric rise.
Thea, known for her authentic on-screen energy and genuine passion, couldn’t be more thrilled about the new chapter. The connection with FHM felt right from the start, a vibe solidified at this year’s AVN Awards in Vegas.
“I’ve joined Flaming Hearts and I couldn’t be happier! One of my closest friends, Blake Lovely, introduced me to Kristel initially last year. Then, when I met with Kristel and Foxxy at the AVNs, I knew this was something I wanted to be a part of. Fast forward 4/5 months, and here we are!”
From Indie Roots to Industry Spotlight
Thea’s journey is a masterclass in modern content creation. Hailing from Northwest Indiana, she first jumped into the scene in 2022, building her brand independently and sharing her work directly with fans online. After making her official studio debut in September 2023, her momentum exploded, quickly establishing her as a fresh, dynamic voice in the industry.
Her signing with FHM reflects a larger industry trend where performers who built their own platforms are now teaming up with specialized agencies that act more like brand partners than old-school agents. It’s about amplifying an already strong voice, not just booking gigs.
When she announced the news on X (formerly Twitter), her fans flooded the comments with support, posting messages like “Huge news! So well deserved,” and “This is amazing, congrats Thea!” It’s clear her community is just as excited for what’s next.
More Than Just a Pretty Face
Beyond the screen, Thea is a true multi-hyphenate. She’s a passionate gardener with a love for cacti and home-grown produce, enjoys cooking from scratch, and is even developing her long-standing interest in music production. It’s this blend of sensuality and down-to-earth authenticity that makes her so relatable.
“This industry is my home, and I just want to bring positivity in any way I can.”
That positive energy is exactly what drew FHM co-founders, performer Foxxy and industry veteran Kristel Penn, to her.
“Foxxy and I met Thea back in January, and we hit it off immediately,” said Kristel Penn. “From the start, it was clear that she had not only the talent, but the drive and vision to build something really special… She’s a hard worker, a true professional, and brings an infectious energy to everything she does. We’re excited to support her… and helping her shine in the spotlight she absolutely deserves.”
A Future Set to Sizzle
Flaming Hearts Media, with its exclusive partnership with trans studio giant Grooby, is uniquely positioned to help Thea expand her empire. The move signals FHM’s continued dedication to uplifting diverse trans talent and giving them the tools to thrive in the creator-driven market.
So, what’s next for Thea Daze? By the sound of it, a whole lot. She’s already teasing huge projects and collaborations that are set to make waves this year. As she puts it best herself:
“I have so many amazing collabs and shoots planned for this year already, and some absolutely insane projects in the works. I’m so grateful to be given this opportunity and representation. I hope you’re ready for more and more Thea!”
