NEW YORK — Adult star Alexis Ford has been named Penthouse magazine’s June 2012 Penthouse Pet of the Month.

The 24-year-old New Yorker first appeared in the May 2011 issue of Penthouse magazine as a feature model.

“Modeling for Penthouse was a goal I set before I got into the adult industry,” Ford said.

She added, “I worked really hard to prove that I would be a great representative of the brand doing Penthouse events, parties and lots of media. I wanted this more than I’ve ever wanted anything and now to finally be named Penthouse Pet of the Month and getting this gorgeous cover is my dream finally being realized.”

Beginning her career a little over two years ago as a Howard-TV Girl for Howard Stern’s On Demand show, Ford quickly climbed the erotic industry ladder working for the major studios including being a contract star for Adam & Eve.

She has also appeared on “I Get High” T-shirts and has been molded for Topco sex toys, as well as keeping busy as a feature dancer traveling across America appearing in major gentlemen’s clubs.

Ford said her family was the first to know about her Penthouse achievement.

“When I was in Miami shooting my layout I called my mom and said, ‘It’s really happening, Ma, I’m becoming a Pet.’ I hope the world is ready to see more of me because I am so proud of my title and haven’t taken off my key necklace since it was given to me. This is only the beginning.”

The June 2012 issue of Penthouse featuring Ford is now on sale at newsstands.
