"I was looking at a couple of companies, and Adam & Eve's values are in line with what I want," Kross told XBIZ. "I have a lot of respect for the people in the company and I have a lot of respect for where the company is going. It worked out.
"I'm looking forward to the promotional stuff. I'm not really doing this so much for the money as for the experience, and Adam & Eve really offers a good time."
A native of Sacramento, Kross was a dancer at 18 ("I jumped into some aspects of the adult business right away," she said) and a nude model before becoming a contract performer at Vivid Entertainment, where she did her first video performance in October 2006.
Since leaving Vivid, she has performed in "Meet Kayden" for Ninn Worx_SR, and "Bree’s Slumber Party" and "Bree & Kayden" with Bree Olson for Adam & Eve, which are scheduled for release later this year.
"Kayden defies everyone's expectations on what an adult star is," Peter Reynolds, vice president of sales and marketing at Adam & Eve, told XBIZ. "She's gorgeous, she's intelligent and she loves sex. She has a head for business and a body for sin. 2008 is Kayden's year."
Her first project for Adam & Eve is in the planning stages.
"We're talking about a western, but I'm not sure how that's going to pan out," Kross said.
Kross will be signing at the Adam & Eve booth during the Adult Entertainment Expo in January.
