Early life and career

DeVille was born in in Durham, North Carolina. She earned a doctorate in physical therapy and worked as a licensed clinician in Tennessee before changing careers in 2011. After moving to California at age 32, DeVille began performing in adult films; by 2018 she was shooting roughly 200 scenes a year. Her on-screen persona and active presence on platforms such as OnlyFans led industry writers to dub her "the internet's step-mom".

Activism

In 2017, DeVille announced that she was running for president of the United States as an independent candidate. Using the campaign slogan "Make America Fucking Awesome Again", she chose rapper Coolio as her vice-presidential running mate. DeVille positioned herself as a sex-positive, cannabis-friendly candidate who favored net neutrality protections. In January 2019, she suspended her campaign and publicly endorsed senator Bernie Sanders for president.
DeVille urged Utah's governor Spencer Cox to veto a 2021 "porn-blocker" bill on First Amendment grounds. The legislation would require new smartphones and tablet computers to block sexually explicit material. After the state enacted legislation in 2023 that required pornographic websites to verify the age of visitors and allowed parents to sue websites for damages, Utah visitors to Pornhub were shown a video message by DeVille arguing that the law would put users' privacy at risk.

Other media appearances

In 2022, DeVille appeared in an advertisement for canned-water brand Liquid Death, urging viewers to avoid single-use plastic packaging. The same year, DeVille produced an instructional adult scene designed to steer men away from speculative cryptocurrency investments toward more stable financial instruments.
DeVille appeared in the 2023 Netflix documentary film Money Shot: The Pornhub Story and has written for Rolling Stone and The Daily Beast.
According to 2018 interview, DeVille continues to practice physical therapy part-time and describes her politics as "left-leaning libertarian."
