Born in Czechoslovakia to Russian parents, Nikita was studying art in school at age 15 when she decided she wanted to try something else. She left her country and traveled around Europe, eventually becoming involved in modeling. From there she began to get work in European porn videos, and after establishing herself in that field, traveled to the U.S. and got into the adult-film business there. In 1997 she won the X-Rated Critics Organization Award for Best New Starlet. She was Miss Kyrgyzstan (IMDb).
