AJ Applegate entered the adult film industry in 2012 at the age of 22 and initially used the stage name Kaylee Evans. Her first scene, titled "Big Butt Bouncing", was for the Mofos website "I Know That Girl". She decided to change her stage name after noticing that both the first name Kaylee and the last name Evans were common in the industry and she wanted to differentiate herself from other porn stars. She chose the first name A.J. because she liked unisex names and the last name Applegate because she was often told that she resembled Christina Applegate. Naughty blonde is gonna work in the adult business for as long as possible and achieve "MILF status". She won AVN Award: Best Group Sex Scene (Gangbang Me) and XBIZ Award Winner: Best Scene in 2015
