If you’re a true porn enthusiast, her face should be instantly recognizable. She was one of the first Latinas to conquer the American porn industry. Melanie Rios (also known as Melanie Jane and Melanie Jay) is a Colombian-American former pornstar who was active from 2009 to 2016. Beautiful and with an irresistible physique, she entered the industry at just 18 years old.

It often felt like she never fully unleashed her true potential. She moaned loudly and with passion, and while generally performing well, it seemed she could have always given a little more. Sadly for us all, she never performed anal sex on camera. With an ass like that – perfect in shape and appearance, even if not overly large – she surely received offers, but none must have been convincing enough for her.

Even without anal sex, a huge sin for a pornstar, she demonstrated her talent. She was recognized with several nominations. In 2012, she received two nominations at the prestigious AVN Awards: one for Best Girl/Girl Sex Scene for her participation in Lush 1 (filmed in 2011), and another for Best Three-Way Sex Scene: G/G/B for Oil Overload 4 (from 2010). The following year, in 2013, the XBIZ Awards nominated her for Best Scene – Feature Movie for her work in Spartacus MMXII: The Beginning (from 2012).
