Sally D’Angelo: A Q&A With A Trailblazing GILF Icon

Since its launch roughly a year ago, GILFAF.com has grown to become one of the hottest sites featuring today’s sexiest and most popular mature models from across the world. It has also expanded and increased the exposure of sizzling hot GILF models to a whole new audience who are clamouring for new scenes and new performers to enjoy.

While GILFAF.com has helped propel the careers of so many new or upcoming models, it has also featured some of the biggest porn stars in the GILF category. One such megastar who is making her GILFAF.com debut is the ravishing and rapturous Sally D’Angelo.

At one time or another, we’ve all heard the staying “legends are not born, they are created”. Some become legendary by creating their very own legacy, rather than being born into one. This is exactly what Sally has accomplished throughout her life in adult entertainment. Becoming a successful porn legend wasn’t particularly easy. However, through hard work, perseverance, dedication, and overcoming obstacles, Sally’s journey into stardom is a bonafide rags-to-riches accomplishment.

Sally draws much of her inspiration as an adult entertainer from two incredible women. One is country music icon Dolly Parton. She is often compared to having Dolly’s larger than life personality; a warm and friendly demeanour, bold fearlessness, and a never ending positive attitude. Also, much like Ms. Parton, she naturally evokes beauty with an infectious smile, charisma, flamboyance, southern charm and overall sex appeal. And yes, they both have notoriously large boobs!

As an on-screen performer, she is also inspired by fellow porn legend Nina Hartley. Both are relatively the same age with very similar body types, and have been performing as iconic nature models for some time. Although Nina retired as a mainstream performer in 2021, she still has a lasting impact on Sally to this day.

It goes without saying that we at Nookies have been very honored to work with Sally for over 10 years. In that time, she has appeared on the Nookies sub-sites See Mom Suck, Mean Massage, Club Tug, and Cumblast City. In every single one of her scenes, Sally has been incredible, bringing her “A”game in each and every one of them. This is why we consider her the gold standard, the pinnacle, the cream of the crop, and an absolute icon. So of course we couldn’t be more excited about Sally coming out if semi-retired to once again shoot for Nookies!

Recently, we had a chance to chat with Sally about her incredible life, and her amazing career. She also shares with us how she has moved on from “GILF-hood” and embraced becoming a self-proclaimed “GGILF”.

1.)  Hi Sally! What an honor it is for us to chat with you! Why don’t we start by getting to know you? Tell us about your background.

Born in Cookeville, Tennessee, but raised in Indiana, I was the baby of a big, broke family—five kids, two step-sibs, and a budget that screamed “poverty line.” We were dirt-poor but happy as clams. Quite talented family we could all sing and dance play instruments, my dad even played once for the famous John Dillinger gang . As a kid, I’d sneak into closets to ogle Playboy mags, drooling over glamorous gals in high-heels and makeup, posing in mansions. I thought, “Sign me up, baby!” In high school, I was Miss Popularity, cheerleading for Indiana’s biggest school— I actually forgot my panties once and that was a mid-cheer surprise. (Oops, story for another day!) Post-school, I landed in a paint factory, where I couldn’t keep my trap shut. “This place is a hot mess!” I told my boss. He snapped, “Fix it then!” So, I did, turning chaos into order. The owners were like, “Let Sally run wild!” I climbed to a white-collar job, but short lived as Sherwin-Williams bought us out, shut us down, and offered me a job in Pompano Beach, Florida. Most gals would’ve jumped; I said, “Nah, my family’s my glue.” Starting over again I was Lost in thought at an Indy hotel lounge, a pal suggested waitressing. First night? Top sales, second night top sales, first week, you guessed it? I’m Still queen. I was raking in three to four times my exec salary—cha-ching! Bartending was my next venture as I landed at a swanky bar/restaurant, very exclusive but also quite relaxed, a perfect spot to land, all the big wheels came in, senators to race team owners, me I’m cracking jokes and charming the socks off folks. During the Indianapolis 500 and National Drags, I hobnobbed with racing royalty like Linda Vaughn, John Force, Penske, Simon, I predicted Danny Sullivan’s 500 win as he sat at my bar—boom! Called Al Unser’s last victory too. They started calling me “Sally the Oracle.” Coca-Cola begged me to bartend their 500 suite, charmed by my Dolly Parton-Esque “never met a stranger” vibe. In the ‘80s and ‘90s, I was Indy’s bar magnet—one spot even built me a custom bar, saying, “Stock it, run it, as you want” My crowd trailed me like groupies. Then I met the guy (THE GUY). I told my sister, “This is it, I’m head over heels!” He owned a top Midwest ad firm and was kinky as a garden hose. We’d rendezvous post my 3 a.m. shifts, going at it like horny teens till dawn. He finally said, “Move in, quit the bar—you’re killing me, doll!” After 15 years solo, I dove in, helping his biz and co-owning Pierce Arrow Theater in Branson, Missouri. I signed sneaky autographs in the lobby to dodge headlines like “Porn Star Runs Bible Belt Theater!” Scandal avoided, thank you very much. (more on porn later)

2.)  What are some fun or interesting facts about you?

I’m a music junkie—country to hip-hop, I’m grooving. Could’ve been a stripper, twirling like a tornado. Strippers loved my bar ‘cause I treated ‘em like queens. Ain’t nobody born a Hilton, and those gals hustle hard. I’m a nudist, strutting naked like it’s my job, and an exhibitionist (remember my sneaking playboys)who lives for high-heels, stockings, corsets, and makeup so bold it could star in a movie. My husband says, “It’s all in the details,” and I make those details pop in my films. Oh, and I’m a swinger—yep, I dragged him into that naughty world, ‘causeI’m the real spice in this stew. I garden like a pro, turning my yard into Eden, and I’m a comedy fiend. Once got kicked out of a comedy club for out-heckling the comic. Manager chased me down at my bar, saying, “You were funnier than our guy! Wanna job?” I said “look around this place, I’m already in a comedy club” True story. I love comedy “no better feeling then laughing and screwing” and that is an original quote from me, it alsomade me right at home with comedy-porn gigs with Brazzers. I can dance, strip, sing, crack jokes, and wear outfits that scream “look at me!” My house? A non-stop circus.

3.)   How and when did you get started in the adult entertainment business?

I’m the kinky mastermind here—I lured my husband into swinging, not the other way around. In the late ‘80s, a bar patron whispered about a swing club. We found Laplas, a 20,000-square-foot sex palace with dungeons, singles floors, and couples’ zones. Naughty? Oh, honey, it was my catnip. We were hooked. Met porn star Janna B. and Harold of Harold’s Studios there. Harold offered me VHS gigs, (with inflation added in) paying four times today’s rates ‘cause porn was a mail-order hustle back then. I’d show up, film, grab my check, and bounce. Laplas was also a deal-making den—scored our Pierce Arrow Theater partners there. My husband’s city ties kept my porn dreams on hold initially, but the itch was real. At a 1988 or 1990 Vegas swingers’ bash, Nina Hartley, queen of porn, strutted over and said, “Girl, you’ve got it for this biz.” I nearly fainted—Nina freakin’ Hartley! Years later, we became pals and filmed together in her L.A.studio……. Fast forward to the 2000s: an old Harold’s cameraman tipped me off about SCORE Group, who love mature models. I scoffed, “Who wants an old broad?” Husband said, “Try it.” SCORE booked me faster than you can say “bikini.” Shot three films, then more. My social media blew up! I would have a million followers IG but I keep getting kicked off for wearing a bikini of all things?… With my biz smarts and hubby’s ad genius, we launched City Girlz, a website (sallydangeloxxx.com), and stores on Clips4Sale, ManyVids, OnlyFans, LoyalFans, and SextPanther. Brazzers was a huge boost they made me their Mother’s Day front-page star for a month—talk about a ego trip! I was up and running. Worked with Brazzers, SCORE, Mindgeek, Reality Kings, Vivid, Hustler, Devils Films, etc even got a J.Lo shoutout in Cosmopolitan. City Girlz snagged an AVN nod, and I’ve racked up 25+ AVN and XBIZ nominations with wins. It’s a fairy talestory; people compare my personality to “Dolly Parton’s” (whom I idolize) never met a stranger attitude you have to smile and treat people nice can you imagine if there was a “mean” Micky Mouse? What you see is what you get with me, and my fans? The best damn crew on Earth.

4.) You refer to yourself as a “GGILF” performer, as opposed to just “GILF”. Tell us how and why you’ve come to embrace it.

In 2018, Brazzers director Toni Ribas (mmm and so handsome, I was hoping he was going to be my film talent) BUT he called me “the original GILF.” I thought, “Damn, Toni, I wanna jump you, and you’re calling me Grandma?” He’s a sweetheart, though, and we’re pals. The GILF label stuck—crews call me “Grandma” on set, which I dig. But let’s be real: I’m a GGILF—Great Grannies I’d Like to Fuck. Still slaying in string bikinis, high-heels, and miniskirts, with twenty-year-olds trying to slide into my ***** . I’m riding this wave till it crashes, baby!

5.)  Who are some of your favorite performers that you’ve worked with? And are there any you want to work with in the future?  

I love almost everyone in the biz—producers, talent, the whole gang. Gotta like who you’re boinking, ahem, working with. It would be easier to list who I don’t like, my “nope” list is shorter than a bad Tinder date. Piss me off, and I’ll just say, “Who, never heard of them?” with a hair flip. Classy, not messy.

6.)  How have you maintained such a healthy and seemingly endless sex drive? 

I’ve been a firecracker forever—Mom caught me humping my pillow when I was younger and she lost her mind. With an imagination wilder than a rom-com, I never fake orgasms. Personal life, films, doesn’t matter. It’s the real deal or bust.

7.)  What are your favorite sex positions?

All positions are my jam, but I’m a cowgirl at heart—giddy-up, I’m driving this rodeo!

8) Have you had many strange or odd requests for a scene, or from fans for custom videos?

I probably make more custom videos than most girls out there so yes, I do get a lot of strange requests. Things I won’t do? Let’s keep it short and not-so-sweet. Druggies—hard pass, keep your powders and pills away. I’m cool with 420, but that’s my limit. Scat or any gross fetish nonsense? Swipe left so fast your head spins. And don’t come at me with “Can I ask a question?”—you just did, genius. Next!

9.)  Do you have any kinks or fetishes that you would love to explore? Are there any you won’t try?

I’m the OG kinkster—I dragged my husband into swinging, and he’s still thanking me. Hard no’s? Druggies, like I said. Favorite kink? Playing the cheating HotWife, banging some stud while my husband watches, eyes wide like he’s front-row at a rock concert. Nearly 40 years in, and it’s still hotter than a Florida summer. Watching him get some is fun too, but me stealing the show? Pure magic.

10.)  Do you have any personal goals for the future of your porn career?

My big goal? Star in a ‘70s/’80s-style porn flick with a juicy plot and steamy scenes, set in a creepy old mansion with a big fun cast… would I sign up for that? I sure will. As mentioned, I have had a fairytale life I get smacked down and float back towards the top from broke-as-a-joke to a South Florida beachside town, I’ve lived the dream with my awesome husband. Semi-retired, I pick my gigs like a kid in a candy store. Next up? Filming for Nookies’ GILFAF.com. I’m here to spice their table, not steal it—unless they beg me to be the face of the site, ha! Buckle up, it’s gonna be a wild ride. Love, Sally.
