Nadia Styles (real name Patrice Roldan,[1] born June 25, 1982) is an American pornographic actress.[2]

Growing up, Styles had a difficult childhood and a physically abusive mother who threw her out of her home at age 17.[1] Styles entered the adult industry as an Internet model by answering an advertisement in LA Weekly.[1] She shot her first film for New Sensations at the age of 19.[3] During her career of over 250 films, she would contract gonorrhea several times, along with other sexually transmitted diseases, and she also became pregnant and had an abortion.[3] In her second year as an adult actress, she was making an income of $100,000. She had started to take drugs and pain-killers, such as Vicodin, and/or abusing alcohol,[4] according to her, to free herself from the pain she experienced at that time.[4]

She left the adult industry in December 2008 and became an opponent of the pornography industry with Shelley Lubben's Pink Cross Foundation. In 2014, she stated that she had shot new adult scenes and was returning as an adult star.[5] She cut ties with the Pink Cross Foundation, stating that "Their agenda did not fit accordingly to what I wanted for myself",and that her departure from porn was more about her own struggles than the industry itself: "I was not fighting against porn. I was fighting against me."[6]
