## Early life
Price was born in [Providence, Rhode Island](https://www.edgepedia.org/providence-rhode-island), in 1981[3](https://babewiki.com/performer/kirsten-price). After high school she attended Fisher College for a year and a half, majoring in criminal justice, and also earned a license in cosmetology[3](https://babewiki.com/performer/kirsten-price) • [4](https://xxxbios.com/kirsten-price-biography/). Before entering adult entertainment she worked in New York City as a go-go dancer and cocktail waitress, competed in Miss Hawaiian Tropic beauty pageants, and posed for mainstream commercials[3](https://babewiki.com/performer/kirsten-price) • [4](https://xxxbios.com/kirsten-price-biography/). She has described herself in interviews as having mixed French and Italian heritage[4](https://xxxbios.com/kirsten-price-biography/).
She has explained that she chose her stage name because her best friend was named Kirsten and because as a child she had wanted to be a model on *The Price Is Right*[4](https://xxxbios.com/kirsten-price-biography/).
## Adult film career
Price entered the adult industry in 2004 at age 22, with early scenes in the Simon Wolf Productions video *Wet Teens 7* and the Original Sin Films production *Dressed for Sex*[3](https://babewiki.com/performer/kirsten-price) • [4](https://xxxbios.com/kirsten-price-biography/). She spent her first months in gonzo releases before signing an exclusive performance contract with Wicked Pictures in 2005[4](https://xxxbios.com/kirsten-price-biography/). She later said the pre-contract period let her see both sides of the industry, which performers signed immediately do not experience[4](https://xxxbios.com/kirsten-price-biography/).
**Wicked Pictures years.** As a Wicked contract girl she appeared in major studio features including *Manhunters* (2006), *FUCK* (2006), *2040* (2009), *Speed* (2010), and *The Rocki Whore Picture Show* (2011)[4](https://xxxbios.com/kirsten-price-biography/) • [7](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1880511/awards/). Her award record at the [AVN Awards](https://www.edgepedia.org/avn-awards) includes wins for Best Group Sex Scene - Film for *FUCK* and Best Supporting Actress - Film for *Manhunters*, both in 2007, and Best Group Sex Scene for *2040* in 2010[1](https://adultindustryawards.com/kirsten-price/). IMDb lists 2 wins and 15 nominations overall[7](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1880511/awards/). She was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame's Video Branch in 2018[1](https://adultindustryawards.com/kirsten-price/).
**Freelance work.** Price left Wicked in early 2012 after nearly seven years as an exclusive performer and moved into freelance work[5](https://www.xbiz.com/news/146347/kirsten-price-makes-directorial-debut-for-brazzers). She subsequently performed for studios and platforms including Brazzers, Twistys, Spizoo, Bikini Riot, and [Holly Randall](https://www.edgepedia.org/holly-randall), and appeared on Playboy Plus[3](https://babewiki.com/performer/kirsten-price). In 2013 her official website, KirstenPriceVIP.com, joined the Puba network[8](https://www.xbiz.com/news/168192/puba-launches-official-kirsten-price-website). She has since created content independently on creator-driven platforms[3](https://babewiki.com/performer/kirsten-price).
## Directing
In 2012 Price made her directorial debut for Brazzers, shooting two scenes for the all-girl site HotandMean.com[5](https://www.xbiz.com/news/146347/kirsten-price-makes-directorial-debut-for-brazzers). She came up with the setups, wrote her own scripts, and styled the performers; she said her partner, the Brazzers performer and director [Keiran Lee](https://www.edgepedia.org/keiran-lee), encouraged the opportunity[5](https://www.xbiz.com/news/146347/kirsten-price-makes-directorial-debut-for-brazzers).
## Television and hosting
Price built a parallel career as a presenter. In 2006 she was named co-host of [Playboy TV](https://www.edgepedia.org/playboy-tv)'s *Night Calls*, joining [Digital Playground](https://www.edgepedia.org/digital-playground) performer [Jesse Jane](https://www.edgepedia.org/jesse-jane)[9](https://www.xbiz.com/p/kirsten-price?v=2017-09-21). She also hosted Playboy TV's *The Bang* and appeared on *Night Calls* and Showtime's *Weeds*[10](https://www.adultfyi.com/from-aee-kirsten-price-reveals-a-few-behind-the-scenes-secrets/).
In 2006 she competed on the first season of the Fox Reality Channel series *My Bare Lady*, which sent four adult film stars to a London theatrical school to train in acting; she was crowned the overall winner after performing Shakespeare, which she described as her first experience with that material[4](https://xxxbios.com/kirsten-price-biography/). She co-hosted the 2010 AVN Awards show alongside performer [Kayden Kross](https://www.edgepedia.org/kayden-kross) and comedian [Dave Attell](https://www.edgepedia.org/dave-attell)[4](https://xxxbios.com/kirsten-price-biography/), and later hosted the red carpet for the 2013 XBIZ Awards and the Backstage Winner's Circle for the 2014 XBIZ Awards[11](https://www.xbiz.com/news/172796/kirsten-price-to-host-backstage-winners-circle-for-2014-xbiz-awards). She has also worked as a feature dancer[3](https://babewiki.com/performer/kirsten-price).
## Personal life
In 2004 Price married fellow adult performer Barrett Blade; the two later divorced, and she stepped away from adult films for a period before returning[3](https://babewiki.com/performer/kirsten-price). She has been married to the British performer Keiran Lee since 19 June 2013, and the couple have three children[6](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1880511/). In 2025 XBIZ reported that Lee was moving back to the United Kingdom with Price and their three children after two decades in the United States[9](https://www.xbiz.com/p/kirsten-price?v=2017-09-21).
