She began working at a Blockbuster Video store but began working as an exotic dancer at a club in Tampa, Florida at the age of nineteen years. While working at the club she was scouted by a representative from Hustler magazine asking if she wanted to appear in videos; she then moved on to start a career in the adult entertainment industry in 2002 at the age of twenty years, starting with internet work and from January, 2004 moving on to start doing scenes for D.V.Ds.

In July 2005, she was involved in an aggressive rough scene in which she has stated she was dropped on her head and broke a toe while working on a scene for director Mason. This led to a war of words between, not only those two, but many in the industry including well-known star Tony T and director Chico Wang. Both came out in Delilah's defense while Mason attempted to stop other directors from hiring her or any one associated with her.

In May 2006, Shane's World Studios contracted her to a one-year nonexclusive contract for the College Invasion Series, making her the official "Ms. College Invasion". Delilah Strong announced her retirement on the June 30th, 2008 update of Assparade episode title "Strong Love", but left the door open for a return to the hardcore porn industry.
