Career

Mack portrayed DC Comics character Zatanna in the 2012 porn parody The Dark Knight XXX. [5] [6]

In April 2013, Mack launched her official website with Puba, [6] and in November, Fleshlight released Attack and Booty, her signature sex toys. [7]

In a 2013 interview with Vice , Mack stated that she planned to retire from performing in adult videos once she had earned enough money to do so. [8] In July 2014, she said she had not performed in a new scene in ten months. [9] She confirmed her retirement in an April 2015 ESPN story. [10]

In 2016, Mack launched a clothing line with the website Pornhub to raise money for domestic violence survivors, following her assault by her ex-boyfriend, mixed martial artist War Machine. [11] [12]

Personal life

Mack began a relationship with mixed martial artist War Machine (born Jonathan Koppenhaver) in 2013. [1] [8] She says Koppenhaver became physically abusive toward her a few months later. [1] The relationship ended sometime before August 2014, [1] when Mack and her boyfriend Corey Thomas were assaulted by Koppenhaver in her Las Vegas home. [1] [13] [14] Mack sustained eighteen broken bones, a broken nose, missing teeth, a fractured rib, a ruptured liver, and a thigh bruise that made her unable to walk for a week. [15] Mack says Koppenhaver also attempted to rape her at knifepoint, [16] but was unable to maintain an erection. [17] Koppenhaver was later found guilty of sexual assault and kidnapping and sentenced to life in prison with a possibility of parole after thirty-six years. [2] [18]
