Ada Lapiedra

Ada is a Spanish girl with an incredible personality. If I remember right, she shot her first porn scene with me. We built a beautiful friendship and met up several times in Barcelona.

Ada Lapiedra is a Spanish adult performer and model born in October 1993 in Lleida, Catalonia, who later moved to Barcelona. Before her hardcore career she modelled as Lorena Hidalgo, including for Playboy Plus. She told Playboy that she had known the magazine all her life, felt she was "born to model," and that being featured was a dream. She describes herself as hardworking, ambitious and creative, and she enjoys travelling alone and writing poetry.

Babepedia dates her first nude modelling to around 2020, while IAFD records her studio career from 2023, when she was about 30. She has filmed for studios including Blacked, Vixen, Brazzers, Reality Kings, Private, MetArt, Penthouse Gold and Spizoo, as well as a number of VR productions, and she also models for iStripper.

At the 2025 AVN Awards she won Best New International Starlet, and in 2026 she was nominated for Best International All-Girl Sex Scene for Good Girls Go Bad.

Her AVN win in 2025 made her one of the most successful Spanish newcomers of recent years.

Banking and debut. In a 2026 interview with the Italian site PRN, Lapiedra said she had grown up in front of the camera as a child but worked in banking as an adult, before returning through fashion and art nudes, including for Playboy and MetArt. PRN dates her professional porn debut to October 2022, slightly earlier than IAFD's records, and notes a Best New Performer nomination at the 2024 XBIZ Europa Awards. She said leaving the corporate world was not a single moment but an inner process: "For a long time I had the feeling I was living a life that was not entirely mine," and she realised that staying out of fear and for security was still a way of losing herself. "So I chose myself, even though it was scary." She describes Ada as a character she created, "the version of me that has stopped asking permission"; in daily life she says she is more reserved, observant and sometimes insecure. Away from the set she writes novels as well as poetry.

On the industry. Asked about her 2025 AVN award, she called it "a mix of vertigo and self-confirmation" and said it became a responsibility to prove it was not luck. What surprised her most was the mental strength the work demands: the hardest part, she said, is not appearance but handling pressure, other people's opinions and constant exposure, and the industry is not dangerous unless you are not mentally strong. She summed it up in three words, "intense, demanding, free", and said the biggest lie about performers is that the work is easy and superficial; some people "publicly criticise this industry and consume it in private". The best advice she received was "learn to say no", because whatever you do will exist forever. She says she did not enter the industry just to pass through it, but to build a brand, her own projects and a career that evolves with her.
