Kristina Shannon

Kristina was born on October 2, 1989, in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Her career took off when she and her twin sister Karissa moved into the Playboy Mansion in 2008 as girlfriends of Hugh Hefner, appearing on the reality series The Girls Next Door. In August 2009, she became Playboy Playmate of the Month, with her sister as Miss July that same year. They were unique in that they held consecutive months' titles but shared a single centerfold. After their time at the mansion ended in early 2010, they moved to the Playmate House and were briefly slated to star in a spinoff, The Bunny House, though they left after Hefner learned they had boyfriends. Later, in 2012, they appeared on Celebrity Big Brother in the UK, finishing fifth.

Kristina and Karissa have undergone several plastic surgeries since their Playboy days, including a botched augmentation and nose job that altered their appearances, leading them to appear on the show Botched in 2015 for corrective procedures. They now have 750cc silicone implants, though Kristina's boobs are currently listed as real (implants removed). She has a tattoo on her tailbone and a "Follower of Christ" script on her left ribs, plus a navel piercing. In December 2018, the twins signed with Brazzers and began filming hardcore scenes together, which they said would be tastefully done. Kristina's boy/girl scenes are specifically categorized as blowjob and vaginal. She maintains an active presence on Instagram with a substantial following of 392k. She is part of a twin duo, a rarity in the industry, and her journey from Playboy to reality TV to adult film has kept her in the public eye for over a decade.
