Nikki Jayne (born 10 June 1985) ^[4] is the stage name of a British pornographic actress.

Born in Manchester, ^{[1] [2]} she grew up in the Wigan suburb of Beech Hill and attended St John Fisher High. ^[2] She also, with the help of some of her friends, ran the tea club at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Springfield, ^[1] but quit that in her early teens after discovering other things in life. ^[5] When she was 18, she had a breast implant operation and went from a 34A to a 34C. ^[1] After leaving school, she attended a local F.E. college and studied performing arts, business studies and psychology, but quit after just three months. ^[5]

After turning eighteen, Jayne got a job selling advertising for the Wigan Reporter newspaper, where she worked for three-and-a-half years.

^[2] After quitting that, she worked part-time as a fitness instructor while at the same time working as a glamour model.

In 2007, Nikki Jayne visited the ETO Show in Birmingham, where she worked modelling evening gowns. ^[1] While there, she was introduced to Gazzman and Dave from Harmony Films. ^[6] Jayne saw a copy of the adult feature film Pirates and shared her desire to be in an adult film like it. ^[7]

Three days later, ^[2] she was in the Czech Republic filming her first scene ^[1] which was released as The Initiation of Nikki Jayne. ^[8] Nine months later, Jayne was contacted by LA Direct Models who invited her to come to Los Angeles; ^[2] in June 2008, she signed a contract with Vivid Entertainment. ^[9]

Jayne was born Samantha Haywood in Manchester, England and was raised in Wigan, England. ^[4] Contrary to some reports, Jayne is not Wiccan; this is partly due to a mix-up from people misreading Wigan. ^[22] Jayne states, "I come from a very open-minded family and they've always been supportive of my decisions, my aunt was a stripper and she probably inspired me because I always wanted to do something where I showed off my body. I'm probably a classic Gemini with both naughty and nice sides". ^[23]
