In 1989, the couple starred in the pornographic film Giochi bestiali in famiglia. They had already starred in some amateur pornography with their faces covered by masks. The 1989 film created a stir in their hometown, drawing the attention of Italian press and launching Rizzo's career.[4]

Rizzo went on to appear in numerous pornographic films, including films with Gerard Damiano.[2]

She founded the company Jessica Rizzo Communications, which produces amateur videos. She works as both a director and performer for her company.[3] She also has her own line of lingerie and perfume.[3]

Rizzo also works as a stage actress, having made her theatrical debut in 1995 in Dario D'Ambrosi Il nulla.[5] In 2003, she was directed by Arnolfo Petri in Albert Camus' Caligula.[6]

In 2011, Rizzo and Toto were involved in a case of tax evasion for allegedly evading approximately 16 million Euros.[7]
