She began her career amidst controversy in the porn industry and went on to enter several genres in mainstream entertainment as an actress, director, producer, singer, and writer. Some of her films include, Blade, Zack and Miri Make a Porno, and Princess of Mars. Born Nora Louise Kuzma on May 7, 1968, in Steubenville, Ohio, USA, she entered the entertainment industry on a very low note. Taking the porn industry by storm as a sixteen-year-old girl, she gained notoriety for her underage appearances in pornographic videos that were as many as one hundred flicks. By the time she turned 18, authorities discovered she was underage and used her case to clobber the porn industry. As a minor, she could not be charged and was rather seen as a a victim of the industry who was drugged and made to do things against her wishes. Even though she claimed she is trying to flee from her porn past, she kept her stage name that was so associated to her ‘damaging’ publicity. Eventually, Lords became one of the few porn stars to legitimately go mainstream. She starred in several TV series, some low-budget movies, including Frostbite, Blade and Princess of Mars. Not being happy to stick with big screen features, Lords broke off into other avenues like music, television and even video games. In 2015, she appeared on the hit ABC reality television series, Celebrity Wife Swap, where she traded lives with actress Jackee Harry.
