If you’ve been watching the rise of trans performer Jade Nyxxx, you know she’s not just a star—she’s a force of nature. Fresh off winning “Best Trans Newcomer” at the 2024 AVN Awards, Nyxxx is making another strategic move, and this one is all about building a future on her own terms. She has officially signed with Flaming Hearts Media, a talent-first agency co-founded by Kristel Penn and industry icon Foxxy.
This isn’t your typical agency signing. It’s a partnership built on a shared vision for a more inclusive and creator-driven industry. For Nyxxx, the connection was instant and deeply personal.
“I’m thrilled to be joining the Flaming Hearts Media family,” Nyxxx shared. “I first connected with Kristel Penn through my work with Grooby in 2023, and from the start, I recognized something genuinely different about her—she’s deeply committed to building an inclusive, sex-positive adult industry from the inside out, and I trust the path she’s carving.”
A Different Kind of Agency
In an industry often criticized for being transactional, Flaming Hearts Media stands out. Nyxxx points to the agency’s unique approach as a key factor in her decision. It wasn’t about a hard sell; it was about understanding her goals and challenges as a performer and creator.
“They listened more than they pitched, understood the real challenges I face, and created a space where community and mentorship are prioritized,” Nyxxx explained. “Foxxy, an icon in this industry, brings invaluable experience to the table, and together with Kristel, FHM offers something I haven’t seen anywhere else.”
This focus on community and mentorship resonates with a growing industry trend where performers are seeking more supportive and collaborative environments. The combination of Penn’s modern vision and Foxxy’s legendary experience creates a powerful foundation for talent to thrive, not just work.
Beyond Performing: The Vision of a Filmmaker
For Jade Nyxxx, this partnership is a launchpad for her bigger ambitions. While she continues to captivate audiences as a performer, her creative spirit is pushing her toward the director’s chair and the writer’s room. This move is about getting the support to become a multi-hyphenate powerhouse.
“With their guidance and vision, I’m excited to take my brand to the next level… and get support for my other ambitions—like writing, directing, and producing narrative-driven erotica,” she revealed. “I have several screenplays in development and am passionate about crafting work that blurs the lines between erotica, mainstream film, and television, and art house cinema.”
This ambition aligns perfectly with the industry’s shift towards more story-driven, high-quality content, where performers are increasingly taking the creative reins to tell authentic stories.
A “Magnetic Force” for the Future
The excitement is mutual. Flaming Hearts Media sees Nyxxx as the embodiment of where the industry is headed: smart, talented, and unwilling to compromise on her values.
“Jade is a magnetic force—equal parts powerhouse and visionary,” said co-founder Kristel Penn. “She represents the future of this industry: smart, sexy, and uncompromising in her values. We’re proud to support her as she continues to break barriers and define success on her own terms.”
With this new alliance, Jade Nyxxx isn’t just securing representation; she’s securing a team that believes in her vision to reshape erotic entertainment. Keep an eye on her—this is just the beginning.
