Early life

Presley was born in Texas and raised in California.

Career

Presley began her career stripping to help financially support herself and her live-in boyfriend. Despite his disapproval of her actions, she delved further into the adult entertainment industry and sought out an agent online to do pornography. [4] At 18 years old, she did her first scene with Joel Lawrence in Just Over Eighteen #10 from Red Light District Video. [5]

She performed in 70 pornographic film scenes over the next eight months, many of which included anal scenes. [6]

In late 2004, she signed an exclusive, three-year contract with porn production studio Digital Playground. Presley later claimed that she first became involved in pornography as revenge against her ex-boyfriend. [4]

Teagan Presley left Digital Playground to start her own web site and production company with her husband, adult performer Tyler Durden (AKA Tyler Wood). She complained that Digital Playground was not allowing her to perform for her new company. [7] However, Digital Playground refuted the complaint and said that Teagan was free to work as lawyers were resolving her contract status. [8] While there were reports that her surname "Presley" was owned by the studio Digital Playground, [9] a representative of the studio has denied those reports as false. [8] In October 2008, she was invited by Digital Playground to host the red carpet at the premiere of Pirates II: Stagnetti's Revenge , a film produced by the firm. [10]

In July 2008, she announced that she had her breast implants replaced and that she would be auctioning them on eBay, with 20%[ citation needed ] of the proceeds going to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, [9] the remaining proceeds of which were to fund her divorce and custody cases. She also announced that she would completely stop performing boy/girl sex scenes. [9]

In October 2008, Presley was named Best Feature Dancer by Nightmoves magazine. [11] In November 2008, she was named the Penthouse Pet of the Month for January 2009. [12]

Presley and her boyfriend Josh Lehman launched their own studio called SkinWorxxx in early 2009, with their first production called The Search for Sun Goddess XXX. [13] [14] In November 2009, Presley signed with Adam and Eve Pictures as an exclusive performer, with her first film to be Bree & Teagan, appearing with Bree Olson. [15]

In 2010, she was named by Maxim as one of the 12 top female stars in porn. [16]

She retired from performing in 2013. [17]

She came back from retirement on November 19, 2017 with a scene for Brazzers Network. [18]
