LAS VEGAS—Rebel Lynn is going all in, betting on her future as not only a performer, but a business owner and director.
This year Lynn launched two new studio imprints and companion premium sites: Pole Vixens and sapphic site SheHerGirls. AVN in March reported about SheHerGirls launching through Paysite.com, along with Pole Vixens in January.
Taking on the role of director for both sites is made possible with her creative vision and the partnership with her spouse, Sidney Coca, and key shareholder Kyle Bedrock.
The moves signal a new era of Lynn’s career, which started in 2015 when she was 18. Upon the launch of both sites, Lynn began writing scripts, producing scenes and directing on set with performers who would come to praise her creative vision.
Lynn recalled the early years when she would make suggestions to directors when she was on set.
"I always saw myself directing since I first started acting,” Lynn said. “For example, I shot all the time with Girlsway. Girlsway and I were like hand in hand.
"If I wasn't on a PornPros set, I was on a Girlsway set. If I wasn't there, I was on a Hustler set. And these were the companies that I got to act in, and I got to have fun. I learned from all of these companies.”
She continued, “I learned from Vixen and from PornPros and from Girlsway and from Hustler. I learned not only how to act, but I also learned how to direct because I soaked in every bit of information that I could from every director that I worked with, whether it was how to give direction or how to place the model where you want.
“I thought, 'Hey, I could do that. How fun, how cool would it be to be able to do that?' Now, I'm doing it, and I feel like I'm succeeding in it. I think porn should be about three things: having fun, making it funny, and keeping it sexy.”
Lynn, who grew up in a “hectic” environment in Aurora, Colorado, decided to take control of her life at an early age. She left home at 16 “and just kind of started doing my own thing.”
”A couple of months before I turned 18, I had a couple of opportunities that kind of came across my way. I was contacted by 'America's Next Top Model,’” Rebel recalled.
"They wanted me on their five-foot season, and I was extremely close to taking it and doing it. The overall aspect of my entire life being under somebody else's control was not appealing to me."
Lynn referred to some of the controversies surrounding America's Next Top Model and the show's creator, actress and model Tyra Banks, as reasons she turned down the opportunity. Rebel told AVN she felt validated about that early career decision when Netflix released the docu-series Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model in February 2026.
"But I was still very much thinking about doing it," Lynn said, referring to having a career in modeling in general. "And then I got an opportunity. (I had somebody contact me from an agency out in Los Angeles that was just starting. So, I decided to do porn instead of the 'Next Top Model' thing. And honestly, thank God, because I feel like I launched a bullet.”
Lynn said she entered the adult industry with the long-held belief that if she worked hard with the proper support network behind her, she would be able to achieve anything. That process was never easy, but she has taken that mindset and parlayed it into a vivacious career.
Her early filmography underscores her fast start.
In 2015 alone, she appeared in dozens of scenes for top brands such as Girlsway, Nubiles, Team Skeet, and Vixen Media Group—for its Tushy and Vixen imprints—as well as Hustler Video. And the work kept coming. Though she has yet to win an award for her work, she has been nominated several times. She was nominated for three AVN Awards in 2017, including two Fan-Voted categories.
"I signed with Nexxxt Level Talent right at the end of 2021, beginning of 2022, I believe,” Rebel said. "Because it was right before I got pregnant."
Rebel and Coca had a child together after meeting each other at the beginning of her career.
Now she balances family time with a thriving production schedule.
Lynn told AVN SheHerGirls is a cheeky, pro-trans, pro-queer tribute to fun, cheesy, humorous film concepts that were commonplace during the "Golden Age of Porn," well into the 1990s (think of the timeless porn scenarios of a game of strip poker gone awry or a housemaid service employee needing to earn a little more income).
Pole Vixens is a site solely dedicated to showcasing elite pole talent, with established and rising adult stars showing off their abilities alongside hunky male leads.
Both sites are a vision that she shares with Bedrock.
"I’ve known Rebel since she started in the industry,” Bedrock said. “She, Sidney, and I have been friends ever since—over 10 years. I worked for Aziani Studios for eight years. That’s how we met; we became very close over the years.”
"We decided to team up and create both websites in one evening," added Bedrock. "We were hanging out and came up with all the ideas for SheHerGirls in one night. We wanted a new site that stood out from the rest. We were laughing our asses off, talking about all the new funny scenes we came up with. Working with Rebel has been great and fun.
"Although it’s a lot of work, it’s been amazing having a good friend and team to work with.”
AVN spoke to some of the talent Lynn has directed, including performers Zariah Aura and Ahanu Reed.
Nominated for Trans Performer of the Year at the 2026 AVN Awards, Zariah had nothing but praise for Rebel and her team, including the scenes they both worked on for SheHerGirls.
At launch, Aura starred in five scenes with performers like Cali Sweets, Mia Molotov, and Hime Marie. Speaking of her experience, Aura told AVN, "Some of my best and most desired content I get from fans is seeing me with cis girls being a giant lesbian. I had so much fun being in the scenes with each of my co-stars—I popped a lot of cherries, too!”
For example, a scene that was released in May titled "Strip Poker Night" depicts Aura and Sweets, along with Coca and Lynn, with cameo appearances by Coca and Lynn.
This scene is a nod to Coca and Lynn's work with the Charity Series of Poker, a nonprofit that organizes poker tournaments to benefit regional and national charities, including St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the Las Vegas Rescue Mission, the Shannon Elizabeth Foundation, the Las Vegas Raiders Foundation, and the Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital.
Lynn has earned the nickname "Queen of the Final Tables," she said.
"I always love being a first, so to have Rebel find so many girls who have never done trans content was so thrilling," Aura added. "It was nice to be in a comfortable environment where a model can be cared for and allowed to be campy and silly. I’m really excited to see how the site grows as more people learn about the hot trans content that they put out. I’m looking forward to returning for more scenes in the future! Thank you to Rebel and the whole team for taking such good care of me and trusting my recommendations for other trans talent."
Reed stars in a single release for SheHerGirls. She was nominated at the 2026 AVN Awards for the Fan-Voted honor of Favorite Studio Newcomer. Paired with Blake Lovely, their scene is titled "New Car No Holes."
"To be on set with Rebel is really the ultimate experience—[it's] the princess treatment!” Ahanu said. “Rebel makes sure everything is exactly perfect and ready, so when the performers get on set, she can start working her magic. The way Rebel directs makes the day go by super quickly; it’s professional as well as friendly, and incredibly passionate.”
"I could really go on forever," Ahanu continued. "I fucking love her. She’s amazing! She does so much to make the experience on set great."
Rebel told AVN she believes her sites will make an impact “and even win some awards.”
“It's brilliant the way that I see it,” Lynn said. “I'm the hardest critic of myself. But even I, I'm like, 'Oh my God, this [work] is brilliant.’"
Now she wants to be one of the greats in porn. On top of that, Rebel told AVN she is expecting her second child with Coca. All of this as Coca and Lynn are also subjects in an upcoming reality show concept called The Adult Life, proposed as an unscripted look inside the day-to-day lives of adult film stars.
"I love what I do, and we're very excited to be a part of this and make a little bit of waves," Lynn said. "It feels really amazing. I've done this work for a long time. I've been involved in this industry since I was 18 years old. It's a part of me now at this point, and Rebel Lynn has started as a persona, but she's a part of me now.
"She's me now, and it feels fucking incredible to have you guys see me and hear me and want me—and appreciate me."
