May 9, 1972 / Taurus / Age 54
Lisa Ann is an American-born Penthouse model, adult model, and MILF porn actress. She was born Lisa Anne Corpora on May 9, 1972 in Easton, Pennsylvania, United States. She has also been professionally credited as Sarah Palin, The Goddess of Porn, Valeska, Valeska Encina, Zina Sunshine, Lisa.
Lisa Ann stepped into the Penthouse spotlight in January 2005 as a featured model at 32. With her statuesque 37-24-37 figure, soulful hazel eyes, silky black hair, and enhanced breasts, Lisa embodies refined sensuality shaped by experience and effortless self-assurance.
Lisa Ann has the kind of adult-entertainment legacy that feels too large for one category. She is not simply a performer with a long career; she is a brand, a strategist, a crossover personality, and one of the rare adult stars whose name traveled far beyond the usual audience. Her glamour has always carried a sharper business instinct underneath it — confident, controlled, and fully aware that fame is most powerful when you learn how to own it.
What makes Lisa compelling is the sheer range of her reinvention. Across more than two decades in adult entertainment, she moved through performing, feature dancing, producing, directing, and talent management with the confidence of someone who understood the industry from every angle. Her success was never just about being in front of the camera. It was about knowing how to turn visibility into leverage, how to stay relevant, and how to keep shaping the story before someone else could shape it for her.
As a Penthouse Pornstar for January 2005, Lisa Ann arrived with the kind of stature that made her impossible to ignore. Her mainstream crossover moment came with Eminem’s “We Made You” video, where she played a Sarah Palin-inspired role following the attention around Hustler’s Who’s Nailin’ Palin? series. She also expanded into radio through Playboy/Spice on SiriusXM, later finding a second career in fantasy sports broadcasting with Lisa Ann Does Fantasy on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio. Her retirement from adult films in December 2014 surprised fans, but it also marked the beginning of a broader public chapter.
What gives Lisa Ann her lasting power is that she never treated adult fame as a dead end. Her autobiography The Life gave her another platform for storytelling, while her continued fan engagement, personal site work, and global promotion kept her image alive on her own terms. Some performers become famous because the industry lifts them. Lisa Ann became famous because she kept finding new rooms to walk into — and knew exactly how to make each one pay attention.
