Christian XXX or Christian (born May 8, 1974), also known as Maxx Diesel, is an American pornographic actor and producer. Although he started his career in the Gay Porn Industry, since then he has appeared in over 3000 scenes in transgender and straight erotica and won four AVN Awards since then. He was the main producer and director for the company Naughty America from 2009 to 2011. He was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame in 2017.
Early life and education[]
Christian was born in Burlington, Vermont.[1] At a young age, he moved to the San Antonio, Texas area with his family. Both his parents were in the U.S. Air Force and he has two younger brothers. Christian attended Tarleton State University and played basketball there for one year before returning home and transferring to University of Texas at San Antonio and walking-on their basketball team. He graduated in 1997 with a bachelor's degree in history.[1]
After finishing his bachelor's, he went to graduate school and was an assistant basketball coach at University of the Incarnate Word for a year and then at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College. He returned home to finish his coursework in education and had a series of teaching jobs. He lived in Lake Jackson, Texas, coached basketball, and taught history at Brazoswood High School for two years before moving to Las Vegas, Nevada to become a nightclub bouncer in 2002.[1]
Career[]
Christian was dating the pornographic actress Lovette and performed an amateur production with her in 1999. In 2003, he contacted director Chi Chi LaRue, in an attempt to enter the heterosexual adult film industry. LaRue, who also directed gay pornography for Falcon Entertainment, asked Christian if he would be interested in performing in gay films instead. Christian agreed since male performers tend to be paid more in gay pornography, as much as $2000 for one scene, compared to heterosexual scenes. Christian signed an exclusive contract with Falcon Studios working under the name "Maxx Diesel".[2][3]
In 2004, he started performing in transgender and heterosexual scenes under the name of "Christian XXX". His resume included performing with transgender and cisgender women.[3] He has said in interviews that he enjoyed his time working as a performer in gay porn movies but employers in the straight porn industry made it very difficult to continue working in both genres.
In 2012 he began his own websites and subsequently stopped performing for other companies. He now only films for the four websites that he owns.
Industry blogs[]
He has a blog up about his life in the business titled, Christian Sings the Blues. He explained the title as a joke, "I complain about my life where I get laid every day and make good money and only work about four hours."[4] He has a second blog called Porn Star Luggage where he discusses the various things porn stars bring with them to set.
