About
Mia Malkova is an American adult-film performer, model, digital content creator, and streaming personality known for blending a playful on-camera vibe with an entrepreneurial spirit. Born on July 1, 1992, in Palm Springs, California, she entered the adult industry in 2012 and quickly gained attention for her energetic performances, winning AVN’s Best New Starlet in 2014. Over time she expanded her brand beyond traditional adult productions, branching into Twitch streaming, YouTube collaborations, and subscription-based platforms where she shares gaming sessions, lifestyle vlogs, and behind-the-scenes content. Her approach—balancing openness about her career with a lighthearted, approachable persona—has helped her cultivate a diverse fan base that includes both adult-industry followers and mainstream gaming audiences.
Before Fame
Growing up in Southern California’s Coachella Valley, Mia was an athletic, social teenager who loved volleyball, hiking in nearby desert canyons, and working part-time jobs to save for weekend adventures. She held early positions at McDonald’s and Sizzler, where she discovered a knack for customer service and a confidence in front of strangers. A close friend already working in adult entertainment suggested she explore modeling opportunities, and after researching the business—and feeling drawn to the financial independence it offered—she decided to give it a try at age 20. Mia initially performed under the name Madison Swan before adopting “Malkova,” honoring her interest in Eastern European culture and finding the alliteration catchy and memorable.
