Bearing a startling resemblance to fashion model Christie Brinkley, Katja Kean began making adult films in her native Denmark in 1997. Having worked in the hotel business for some time, she got bored and wanted to try something completely different, and decided that porn was it. She has made only a relative handful of features since her debut, but...
My family for sure knows what I'm doing. It's a little difficult to hide! Especially when you live in such a small country as Denmark. If they would approve has never really been my concern. It's my life, and they would never dream of interfering.

Fact
1
She can be seen dancing in the background on a television set during an episode of Friends (1994) behind Chandler as he enters the room. The brief appearance was actually a snippet of Sports Spectacular (1999) and occurred during episode 4 of Season 9: "The One with the Sharks".
2
Manager and owner of a fashion lingerie company in Copenhagen, Denmark. [May 2007]
3
Is mentioned in the Danish band Nephew's single "Superliga".
4
Voted as #30 on the Top 100 Sexiest Women 2004 in FHM [DK]
5
In 2002 she became the subject of a biography called "Katja KXXX - Stjerne I Syndens By" (written by Henrik List, based on interviews with her). The title, which was chosen by the book's publisher, has lead some people to believe that Katja Kean changed her last name to "KXXX", but that is a misunderstanding. The name she chose to replace "Katja Kean", when for legal reasons she was forced to change it, was "Katja K".
6
The most famous Danish woman, according to the search engine Google. A list published in December 2003 revealed that she was ranked as #7 with 67,900 hits. The list also featured Viggo Mortensen at #4 with 124,000 hits.
7
When Dario Campeotto released his album "Love is in the Air" in 2001, she surprised everybody by singing a duet with him. The song "Save Your Love" revealed that she can actually sing. To prove that this was not some skilled producer's editing of her vocals, she did a live performance with Campeotto in Tivoli, the famous theme park in Copenhagen.
8
Was 29 years old before making her first pornographic movie, an age where most people in the business begin to contemplate retirement.
9
Her bigger sister was also a model.
