Khalifa entered the adult film industry in October 2014.She had been working at a local fast food restaurant when she was approached by a customer and asked if she ever wanted to be in pornography.

On December 28 that year, Pornhub revealed that she was the #1 ranked porn star on their website,replacing retired Lisa Ann. Her newfound notoriety quickly drew strong criticism from many in the Middle East, who branded her career choice as shameful and Khalifa herself a disgrace to her country.
