Serenity Cox

All models were at least 18 years old at the time of their performance. 18 U.S.C. 2257 Record-Keeping Requirements Compliance Statement. A version of this feature appears in the November 2024 issue of AVN magazine . Click here for the digital edition. The 15-year veteran ER nurse from Toronto took an unlikely path to porn stardom that began when she and her husband decided to add a new dimension to their sex life during the pandemic. Their experiments with the hotwife lifestyle first led to them uploading their amateur content to FetLife and then to Pornhub, where they soon found an enthusiastic audience that wanted more. Less than three years later—in May 2024—Cox landed an exclusive performance contract with Vixen Media Group and found herself in the starting lineup for the Super Bowl of hotwifing—joining an ensemble cast for Vixen Media Group’s splashy five-part feature American MILF , which rolled out in September through their MILFY label. It all escalated quickly for Cox , who tells AVN hotwifing was a hobby that she never imagined would lead her to this moment. "I’ve been with my husband for 13 years and we’ve had an evolving sex life as couples do have,” Cox explains. “Then in 2020, everyone went a little bit crazy during the pandemic. We had been in our monogamous marriage and we had been having hotwife type role play and fantasies forever, but we never acted on it. And then 2020 comes along and we’re just like, ‘The world is ending! Fuck it, let’s just do what we want to do.’ “So it wasn’t about filming back then, it was just about us having fun together and inviting other people into our intimate moments.” As their explorations progressed, Serenity and her hubby would film themselves in threesomes from his POV. “And we were very private about what we were doing,” she says. “We were working our jobs and people didn’t know what our lifestyle was.” “Because we were getting better and we were starting to make our videos for the feedback and that was part of the excitement,” Serenity says. But after she won Best Newcomer at the 2022 Pornhub Awards, she realized she might be onto something bigger. Enter Vixen Media Group, the studio heavyweight that first reached out to her through Twitter in early 2023. But Cox says she wasn’t familiar with the company’s stature in the industry and wasn’t ready to make the jump. So she did, working with world class studs Alberto Blanco and Jason Luv under the direction of Julia Grandi. Fast forward to April and VMG reached out again—but this time it was with an exclusive contract offer. She adds, “For me the whole journey has been mostly about exploring and opening up an alternative lifestyle, like going from this monogamous, everyday average life to being like let’s just say ‘yes’ to new things and new experiences.” Cox calls the experience of being in American MILF “surreal.” Not only was the production huge by any measure, she also shared the set with a cast of porn superstars in Brandi Love, Maitland Ward, Christy Canyon and Phoenix Marie. She performed with reigning AVN Male Performer of the Year Isiah Maxwell in her scene, which was the first one released from American MILF . For Cox, Maxwell came as advertised. “That was the first time I met him,” Serenity says of Isiah, who started his performing career in 2013, two years after breaking into adult as an intern at Ideal Image Models. “He’s such a gentleman, so friendly. He’s got this smile and you just kind of melt.” Cox's second sex scene in American MILF— which involved her taking on Jason Luv along with her co-stars—received a 2025 AVN Award nomination for Best Foursome/Orgy Scene. “It’s just like a really tight crew that we do our independent stuff with. And the professional thing is people I don’t know, a room full of people. “But I changed my mindset from this is actual my sex life and documenting my sexual experiences versus creating art or creating a fantasy that other people can consume and watch.” Cox
