February 15, 1974 / Aquarius / Age 52
Gina Lynn is a Puerto-Rican-born Penthouse model, stripper, adult model, iconic porn actress, and adult movie director. She was born Tanya Mercado on February 15, 1974 in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico. Throughout her modeling career, she has also appeared under the names Gina Ann, Gina Evan or Gyna Lynn, each marking a distinct chapter in her evolving on-camera persona.
Gina Lynn was crowned Penthouse Pet of the Month in April 2012, stepping into the spotlight at 38 years old. Her measurements are 34-24-34. Gina Lynn has seductive blue eyes, honey blond hair, and enhanced breasts.
Gina Lynn is a name built on longevity, authority, and unapologetic confidence. She arrived at that milestone already established as one of the most recognizable figures of her era—proof that staying power is its own kind of allure.
Raised in New Jersey, Gina began dancing on the Jersey Shore in her late teens before transitioning into nude modeling and, soon after, film work. Her striking half–Hispanic, half–Italian look stood out immediately, opening doors across magazines and studios. By the early 2000s, she had signed an exclusive performing contract and was firmly embedded in the industry’s upper tier.
Gina’s career expanded beyond performance. She founded her own production company, stepped behind the camera as a director, and built a catalog that reflected control as much as charisma. Mainstream pop culture took notice as well—she appeared in the music video for “Superman” by Eminem and made a cameo in the film Analyze That, reinforcing her crossover appeal.
Recognition followed. In 2010, Gina was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame, honoring not just her popularity but her influence. Awards and fan accolades underscored a career defined by consistency and evolution rather than flash.
For Penthouse magazine, Gina Lynn represents a mature ideal: experienced, self-directed, and fully in command of her image. She didn’t chase relevance.
