P.J. O'Rourke once said that the most beautiful girls in the world are from Vietnam - that in any group of thirty Vietnamese women, twenty-nine of them would make Julia Roberts look like Lyle Lovett. It's not hard to see what he was talking about when you look at Katsumi - and she's only half Vietnamese. The other half is French, and that half's pretty good-looking too. Exotic is a pale word to describe Katsumi, whose delicate Eurasian features belie the voracious appetites she displays in her movies. After only two months in the industry, Katsumi was not only nominated for but had won two AVN Awards, for Best Sex Scene In A Foreign Shot Production and Best Anal Sex Scene in a Video. And 2004 was just the start - in addition to a raft of European awards, Katsumi has piled up plenty more AVN nods, including two consecutive Best Foreign Performer Awards in 2005 and 2006 - quite a feat for a girl who was studying literature and political science in school jut a couple of short years before.

Born in France on April 19th, 1979, she claims to have had absolutely no sexual experience before the age of nineteen - not even masturbating. Hard to believe, especially for a girl who says she's not satisfied with one man and needs two or three or more to be satisfied. She gets her wish fairly frequently, as can be seen in Gangbang Audition #13, Double Parked #13, or 2 Dicks In 1 Chick #7. Although Katsumi prefers to work with guys, she says she does love girls, but she says that with women she's shy and afraid of hurting them. She also doesn't like to share. Maybe she's just making up for lost time, but with well over two hundred movies under her belt in her three years in porn, she's catching up quick.

In spite of the glut of performers from Eastern Europe that has flooded the porn market, it's not too common for a foreign performer to make as big a splash as Katsumi has, but her otherworldly beauty, combined with her lean, slender body - 5'7" tall with a 34-24-32 figure that she has recently upgraded to a D-cup - has made her more than just noticeable. Like most Asian performers, Katsumi has glossy, raven-black hair, but she also sometimes tinges it with a deep red tone, just enough to add another facet to her already riveting allure. Before her US debut, Katsumi made 20 movies in her native France (during which time she was also known as Belgazoo (!)), but decided to move into the American market because LA was where she could become the best at her craft

It's not just multiple partners that gets her off. Although she looks fragile and delicate, Katsumi is one of the most hardcore performers in hardcore, having developed a reputation for an incredible anal capacity. In addition to the more mundane standard double pussy penetration, which she does in more than thirty movies, including Double Stuffed #3, Who's Your Daddy #2 and Jules Jordan's Invasian #2, Katsumi can also accommodate two cocks elsewhere, taking the double anal with equal ease in movies like Manuel Ferrara's Anal Expedition #6.

And Katsumi's delicious back end isn't the only place she can take an enormous amount of meat - sometime between the non-masturbating years and the superstar years, she also gained a reputation as a premiere cocksucker, with a talent for deep-throating that Linda Lovelace might have envied. You can check out her skills in 2 On 1 #17 or Once You Go Black You Never Go Back #3, among many others.

2006 was a pretty good year for Katsumi - the AVN show last year saw her pull down three statues, one for the Best Tease performance in Jules Jordan's Ass Worship #7, Best Anal Scene in Cumshitters and Best Interactive DVD for Virtual Katsumi. So how will she top it? Well, it's hard to make predictions, but it should be noted that Katsumi was tapped for a signal honor; John Stagliano picked her to be the centerpiece of his new fetish epic, Fashionistas Safado - The Challenge, and in the course of filming, Katsumi discovered she was going to be Rocco Siffredi's costar in his last scene ever. So Rocco's leaving on a high note, and Katsumi? Well, she's still headed straight up...
