Brittany Andrews

Owner at Britco Pictures

🌟 Brittany Andrews – 3x Hall of Fame Icon • Award-Winning Filmmaker • Fetish Pioneer • DJ BritStar • Advocate Early Years: From Survival to Stardom Born in Milwaukee, Brittany Andrews didn’t have the luxury of a soft start. Raised in a troubled household, she was fiercely independent from a young age, taking on adult responsibilities as a teenager just to survive. By sixteen, while most of her peers were planning their prom dresses, Brittany was already a manager at a beauty supply chain. That hustler’s spirit would carry her far—and fast. By the time she turned 18, Brittany was working as an exotic dancer and catching attention with her striking blue eyes, blonde bombshell appeal, and undeniable stage presence. On a photo shoot for Cheri & High Society magazine in Jamaica, she met Jenna Jameson, who helped usher her into the adult industry. From that moment, Brittany took off like a rocket 🚀—and never looked back. Breaking Through in Adult Film Brittany’s entry into adult film wasn’t typical—and neither was her path through it. She appeared in her first scene and within weeks, her phone was ringing nonstop with offers from top-tier studios. But she didn’t want to be anyone’s “contract girl.” She knew she had something bigger in mind: power, autonomy, and empire-building. Over the course of her legendary career, Brittany shot over 600 scenes, becoming a fan favorite and professional powerhouse. She’s worked with all the top adult film studios and earned Favorite Domme from AVN in 2022, 2023, and 2025, alongside a staggering list of nominations for Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Fetish Director, MILF Performer of the Year, Fetish Performer of the Year, Crossover Star of the Year, and more. In the mid-90s, she became a household name for her bold on-screen persona and her fierce independence behind the scenes. And in 1997, she took control of her own narrative by founding Britco Pictures, a 5,000 sq. ft. full-scale production studio in downtown Los Angeles.For nearly 15 years, Britco wasn’t just her creative headquarters—it was one of the most in-demand rental studios in the adult industry. With multiple standing sets, high-end equipment, and a built-in post-production suite (Cave Post), Britco became the go-to location for top directors, production companies, and mainstream crossover shoots alike. Brittany didn’t just run a studio—she built an entire creative ecosystem that gave other performers and producers a space to elevate their own content while setting the bar for professional, performer-led filmmaking in adult. Entrepreneurial Empire: Britco and Beyond Britco Pictures wasn’t just a vanity label. It was a revolutionary platform where Brittany produced, directed, edited, and starred in her own lines of content—on her own terms. Her work was ahead of its time, particularly in the fetish space. She was among the first performers to center story-driven pegging scenes on film, launching the now-iconic Brittany’s Bitch Boyz series on VHS. Her titles—including Strap-On Sissy School, Bitches Beating Boyz, and Exquisite Feet—established her as one of the founding femmes of femdom content. She didn’t just dominate the camera—she dominated distribution. Brittany was an early adopter of VOD and mobile content, licensing deals with Japan’s I-mode, and running her own Niche Bitch Network of fetish sites long before platforms like OnlyFans even existed. Crossover Queen: Mainstream & Media Success Brittany’s crossover appeal was undeniable. She guested on The Howard Stern Show 11 times, with two episodes ranking in his all-time Top 25. She was named one of the Top 10 Porn Stars by Entertainment Tonight and Cosmopolitan, and appeared in mainstream outlets like Wall Street Journal, New York Post, Variety, Rolling Stone, Time Out NY, Muscle & Fitness, and over 300 magazine spreads, including 50+ covers. She was featured in the only issue of Playboy magazine to ever spotlight adult film stars in its history—cementing her place as a cultural icon. She modeled for elite photographers like David LaChapelle, Terry Richardson, and Earl Miller, and became the face of numerous fetish magazines including Leg Show, Vavoom, Kink Queens, DDI, and Darkside. TV Host & Sexpert For over a decade, Brittany was also a major TV personality. She hosted more than 10 Playboy Channel programs, including Nightcalls, Hot Rocks, Playboy’s Hard Drive, SexCourt, and Adult Stars Flying Solo. She earned the title of Sexpert on multiple shows, sharing candid and educational insights on fetish, dominance, and female pleasure—long before it was mainstream. She also appeared on The O’Reilly Factor, Dateline NBC, CNN, BBC, The Man Show, Tyra Banks, Blind Date, and HBO’s Radio Sex TV, showing her intellect and humor could shine in any setting. Film Director & Festival Favorite After closing Britco, Brittany moved to NYC and attended the New York Film Academy, studying Producing for two years and Filmmaking for one. She launched Discipline FilmWorks in 2008 and quickly made waves in the independent film world. Her indie films and documentaries earned critical acclaim: ● Crumble – Premiered at Cannes, won 7 awards ● Blindfold – A 9/11-themed short, won Special Jury Award (Canada Film Festival) and Audience Award (NYIFF) ● Trick of the Witch – A supernatural thriller, won Best Horror Film and Audience Award ● My Real Porn Life – Won Best Reality Short at NYIFF ● These Showers Can Talk – Brittany won Best Supporting Actress She also directed After Porn Ends 3 for Netflix, further solidifying her legacy as a storyteller and documentarian of the industry from the inside out. Global Tour Life: DJ BritStar Brittany rebranded herself as DJ BritStar in the 2000s, spinning live at global venues across Tokyo, Australia, Miami, NYC, Vegas, and more. With her Ableton certification from DUBSPOT and original tracks like “Walking Away” featuring Craig David, Brittany became one of the few adult stars to also make a name for herself in international music and nightlife. She performed at events alongside Afrojack, Rob Base, John Digweed, and headlined at high-profile venues including Webster Hall, Ultra Music Festival, Sankys Tokyo, and The Flamingo Go Pool (Vegas summer residency). Mentor, Brand Builder, and Mama Bear Now in her third act, Brittany has stepped confidently into the role of mentor, educator, and industry mama bear. A three-time Hall of Fame inductee (AVN, XRCO, and Legends of Erotica) and still one of the longest-running active performers in the game, Brittany is passionate about helping other talent succeed—not just on camera, but behind the scenes. These days, her focus is on helping creators understand the business: how to manage a team, build a brand, price their content, organize their systems, and treat their careers like the businesses they are. She’s currently laying the foundation for her next venture, Sexy Success Stars—a future-forward brand designed to teach new and mid-career creators the full spectrum of content entrepreneurship: from production and workflow to monetization, branding, and strategy. She also speaks openly about mental health, burnout, and the emotional side of running a brand in a fast-moving, high-pressure space—offering both real talk and real tools. For Brittany, being a mama bear isn’t about hand-holding. It’s about showing up, sharing knowledge, and helping others become their own boss—without losing themselves in the process. Today & Beyond Currently, Brittany continues to perform, direct, and run her production business while expanding into luxury fetish product design. She’s a public speaker, advocate, and icon constantly evolving with the times—without compromising her power or voice.
