Kota Sky Announces Her Retirement
Kota Sky is coming back to earth! After a whirlwind career that started in 2013 and reached its culmination with an array of award nods this spring, the blonde starlet has decided to retire. She announced her decision with a simple three-word Tweet yesterday: “I retired btw.” The story was reported on The Real Porn Wikileaks, which later received confirmation of the retirement from Sky herself. While she did not elaborate on her specific reasons for moving away from porn, press reports from earlier in the year indicated that Kota had reduced her shooting schedule to focus on her education.
The Tampa native first gained prominent attention in the porn world for her cover-girl appearance in New Sensations‘ Tiny Dancer. It was the beginning of a fruitful relationship with the Digital Sin/New Sensations brand, which featured Kota in a series of bestselling movies. She also enjoyed successful collaborations with HardX (including one of her first anal scenes), Evil Angel and more. Asked to account for her remarkable popularity, Sky told MMD, “I look young and I play that innocent girl role really well. Also I’m really good at what I do, I think.” Her consistently high ranking on Adult Empire’s pornstar page – rarely has she ever been outside the top 25 in the past year – attests to her skills and appeal as a performer. Though she originally appeared under the name Dakota Skye, she simplified her stage name to Kota Sky earlier this year.
What’s next for Kota? When turning her thoughts to her general future plans in a 2014 Adult DVD Talk interview, Kota noted, “There are a lot of things that I really wish I could say that are happening in the near future but I can’t really say anything right now. But I think I have a pretty good future coming. I’ve been working really hard.”
