IAFD had received notice that Joey Valentine had died in Dec. 2010. However, we could not confirm her death until recently. Her friends had submitted a memorial page as evidence but asked us not to disclose it. We also are not sure how she died but people are always going to speculate. http://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=Joey04/gender=f/joey-valentine.htm It's sad. I had met her on set a couple of times. Even though she was quiet and kept to herself in general, she was always friendly when I interacted with her directly.
OMG if true that is terribly heartbreaking news. She was one of my all time favorite performers. 2010 not looking so good. Edited by - ddl33 on 1/22/2011 11:04:55 PM

I never know what to type when I read sad news like this on a forum. It just makes me feel empty and depressed. My thoughts are with her family. RIP
why do you say that? she would not be the first performer to pass away suddenly Anastasia Blue, Judy Star, Jon Dough. poor Haley Paige. another one to the list so much damaged humanity. sometimes i wonder why i continue to watch Edited by - groin-grabbingly on 2/4/2011 12:52:52 PM
For starters there's only one source of the allegation so far, "Morbid Thoughts". No other corroborating evidence than what her "friends" are claiming. Sorry but having editing privs at IAFD doesn't suddenly make you a credible news source. "Her friends had submitted a memorial page as evidence but asked us not to disclose it." Why would her "friends" care what some porn database thinks, enough to submit a "memorial page" and whatnot? Think about it, why would they care. This is so fishy its not even funny.

SportSwami, i see you left a crass comment on the blog post. what evidence do you want? a facebook page or a condolence guestbook maybe? so you can leave more crass comments? morbidthoughts posted that he received corroborating evidence but he was asked not to make it public. probably to avoid it attracting comments like yours i believe morbidthoughts. he has been around the porn industry and contributed to IAFD and ADT for years. he has no reason to lie there were doubters about Judy Star and Anastasia Blue too. look how that turned out
I verified the death looking up her real name under the SS Death Index. You're more than free to look it up yourself unless your porn internet radio show does not give you such inside information to her name.
The lack of a newspaper obituary, or any confirmation by either AVN or IAFD was what made me skeptical about Judy Star's demise for so long. I'm assuming the fact that Judy was Canadian is why IAFD has never attempted to get verification on her death. I'm quite satisfied with IAFD's research concerning Joey Valentine's demise. They will err on the side of not reporting an industry person's death rather than reporting that someone had died who is still amongst the living. On that Judy Star death thread, Tookie really ticked me off when he cut that sarcastic attitude with me about my believing a guy I knew who worked in the Montreal internet porn industry about Judy really being dead but not her grieving father. To hear Tookie describe it. Excuse me, but I casually knew that guy through e-mail correspondence, whereas to me that facebook page was strangers speaking French. And Googling Judy Davis didn't bring up any corroborating evidence.
Actually, I am from Montreal and another IAFD editor is from Canada. Death records are done by province and Quebec's records are not online. I checked some of the local cemetaries, and I couldn't confirm her death. There is always a healthy sense of skepticism, but I see an internet radio idiot didn't do his due diligence before calling bullshit.
