Some brazilian porn stars:

Jessie Rogers, born in 1993 in Rio de Janeiro. Had a brief career but is currently ranked #1 on freeones.com. This pic shows her after her 2012 boob job. Before that, she was known for her small tits.

Monica Mattos, born 1983 in Sao Paolo. Specializes notably in anal.

Juelz Ventura, born in 1987 in Brasilia. Started her career in 2008, she is maybe one of the most famous Brazilian pornstars outside Brazil.

Even though the Brazilian market is overflown with American productions, starring notably local stars such as  the forementioned, there still is a local porn production. Companies like Braseilirinhas or Explicità(both based in Sao Paolo) produce gonzo porn that have pushed local performers's career forward such as Babalu.

Brazilian porn stars don't engage in the most wild scenes but have solild scores in classics such as blowjobs, double penetration, and in particular anal, in which they rank third worldwide.
