This was submitted to the IAFD today:Personally, I find this hard to believe. That a star this big passed-away over two years ago, and I haven't seen or heard anything about it, especially here on ADT, makes me very skeptical. So, how about it? Is there anything to this? Or, better yet, what is Lauren Phoenix currently up to?
Maybe "Lauren" herself submitted it. Perhaps she wants the persona formerly known as "Lauren Phoenix" to be "dead", as in, like her spiritual essence, not physically. Maybe the date of June 6, 2006 represents some special significance for her. Porn stars who wish to leave those memories behind have said and done far crazier things. Just a theory. [Link]
Last time I saw her was in one of Tom Byron's releases, but she didn't do a scene. She was in the BTS, apparently either running the camera or in some other capacity. It was a couple years ago though, and I don't remember the title.

Perhaps she is a WWII buff and wanted to honor the Canadian soldiers that landed at Juno beach on D-Day.Watch out BigBobxxx. Sounds like you guys might have another Heidi Kat in the making.

Sounds like she met a guy and wants to settle down and erase this part of her life...but it's too late
When I was tracking this down, I noticed that (what I believe to be) her MySpace page(s) had been taken down. (i.e. MySpace page(s) returned by Google that are now gone, but suggest they may have been removed when you go to them). For whatever it's worth, even if the IAFD marks a performer as deceased we don't remove their performer's page. Finally, we have reason to believe that Lauren Phoenix, herself, submitted the "death notice." And, most importantly, that she is alive and well. Hope she has a great retirement. And, thanks for a great career and back-catalog
Sky: As a point of safety and in respect to the many performers who are regulars at ADT, the use of real names is STRONGLY discouraged. But I can personally tell you that there is no public death record in any Canadian province for a woman going by Lauren's real name with matching statistics (D.O.B., P.O.B., race, etc.). - Zen
if her Myspace page was up and just now have been taken down and then her Wiki entry is making a disappearing act after being up at least to the end of the year since I last stopped by it, then that sounds like Lauren is trying to do a HOLLY LANDERS. Anggcct! ain't gonna work Lauren. Besides I could swear I've seen her in some recent releases at the store. Here's a couple of titles you guys tell me if they are current, recently current or old: BUTT SLUTS (2007 date on box ...but looks like a comp) starring Lauren Phoenix, Harmony Rose, Trina Michaels BLONDE AMBITION(10-5-2008 JulesJordanVideo) starring Lauren Phoenix, Alexis Texas, Annette Schwarz
Don't forget Keri Sable, too. This makes the 10-5-08 2257 date (from boxcover) very interesting. Even if it is 1-05-08, how do you get Keri Sable into the date range?
^^ A compilation would make it even more questionable. The 2257 date(s) are supposed to be when the scene(s) were performed (which, if a compilation, makes 10-5-08 preposterous and not applicable to every scene). Very strange.
^ Bigbobxxx, I come across incorrect 2257 info on box covers all the time. For one example, see this post and the reply in the post after it. For a second example, see this post. While both of these incorrect dates were for vids from the same company, I have discovered it with other companies as well.
bbxxx, kbv69, I copied the 10-5-08 date off the box BLONDE AMBITION a few weeks back and before this 'alledged' death/disappearance etc of Lauren. True we don't know how verifiable dates on box covers are but for as long as I've been renting/buying porn I've always differentiated the 'release' date from the date 'scenes were shot'. The porn biz didn't start printing scene shot dates until after July 1995 if I recall and there usually are a bunch of dates clustered together for scenes as they are shot on different schedules between girls. And also we take into aspect chronology. Alexis Texas, also from BLONDE AMBITION wasn't shooting scenes nearly three years ago when Lauren is supposed to have died.
^ The chronology point is meaningless. If you look at the vids mentioned in my post above, in the first one, for example, the scene I inquired about was filmed in 2003, but Charlotte Stokely is also in that movie, and she turned 17 in August of 2003, so clearly her scene was not filmed at the same time. In fact, it was likely not even close, because by all accounts she didn't get into the biz until mid-2005. In other words, nothing means anything. In the same film you can have, for example, one scene from 2004, one from 2007, and a production date on the back cover from 2008. So literally nothing can be concluded from who is in the film, or what date is listed on the box.
actually the chronology point is very meaningful which is why I brought it up. I have a feeling we're on the same sheet of music more or less but here me out. True printed dates on boxes can be esoteric and quite frequently random with enough correct info there to skirt the law. However this is a business to make money. As you said Stokely was of age as early as August 2003. So why then would the person who shot that scene wait TWO to THREE years to make money off of it. I been around porn long enough to know scenes can be tucked away on tapes/dvds that are not necessarily catalogued but do show up.(A point also accurately showcased in the movie "Hardcore"(1979) about stag loops but also applies to isolated video scenes). So Stokely's initial scene could've been out there all the while YOU JUST DIDNT SEE IT. But I digress.
@Everett: Stokely was of age as of Aug 2004. Not 2003. But anyway, point taken. Back to Blonde Ambition. Here's a review which tells you not only that it's a compilation, but also which films the scenes originally came from. Phoenix's scene is from Anal Prostitutes on Video (2004). There. Done.

How does one rack up 350 scenes whilst having profound religious misgivings about their line of work? Large amounts of money can quiet the doubt in your soul, I suppose. [xx)]
There is some rumour that she was battling subtance abuse just after the left the business.As many of you know substance abuse normally ends up in some Drama involving Religion. But I wish her well in her New life if she's still alive. But one cannot do more than 300 Hardcore scenes and expect all that to just die off. She can move on with her New Life but her material will live on.
"Damn" is right. If you ask me, girls like Lauren Phoenix don't come along every day in this business and we all know it. I'm perfectly content knowing that she wants to carry on a different path in her life but by the same token, she has no control over mine or how I choose to remember a certain time period of hers. The work and career of a girl of Phoenix's caliber should always be remembered, nay, celebrated and not allowed to simply fade away because she suddenly has misgivings about her pornographic past. She was one of the best to ever do it, a former AVN Female Performer of the Year which means her name is forever etched into the annals of adult history. I say we use this thread as a tribute (discussing our favorite scenes, share pictures, etc.), not to mourn her "loss."

Man, I used to love to watch that girl sweat. There should be some kind of perspiration index on her scenes. Lauren was like a world class thoroughbred at the top of her game as she galloped through the men folk of porn valley.
Lauren is that rare girl who combines the sophisticated look and the wanton slut look. I love her voice too, and of course that "big phat ass", as she always called it.
The Class of 2003 is one that may not be matched. We fans were lucky to witness no less than 5 Hardcore Queens entre the business at the same time and put on the most entertaining scenes that will survive the Test of time. Stamina wise I would rate Lauren Phoenix at number 2 with Sandra Romain taking the top spot. But since this is a Lauren Thread I will keep it centred more on her . Its so hard to pick out my fav scene from her coz all her scenes were just action packed.But one scene she did with Slayer when he was at EXP is possibly my fav scene of hers even though Its so damn hard to pick. She took everything that Slayer threw at her and even wanted more.
Pure poetry, picman. It's funny you should mention Lauren Phoenix and her sweat. Not only do I agree that she truly glistened and literally "shined" like no other but your comments also served to remind me of another of my favorite early scenes from her and the good folks at Elegant Angel, directed by the grand ol' perv himself, Patrick Collins, Sodomania 41. I purchased this at the height of my Mason Storm infatuation but it was Lauren Phoenix's performance that kept this in my DVD player for weeks and weeks on end and actually just made me go pull it down off the shelf to watch it again right now. It's the second scene, a little vignette entitled "I Coulda' Been a Contender" and her partner is Mick Blue. This particular segment is shot by Thomas Zupko and in it Blue watches Phoenix work out. She jogs on a treadmill, her tiny grey shorts only half hiding her sweatbead-covered ass. It is something to see. And I don't think I'll soon forget the image of Lauren hanging upside down from the dip machine, in nothing but her socks and sneakers, suspended by but the mere strength of her own amazing stallion-like legs and her gagging on Mick's sturdy rod of a cock. ------ As an aside, it was this, the first two Big Wet Asses and Booty Duty 11 (flicks I also initally bought because of the inclusion of Mason Storm) that were the movies that got me watching Elegant again and the start of the company's return to prominence. After seeing this it was a no-brainer to go out and plunk down my cash on stuff like Cumback Pussy 50, Tails of Perversity 9 & 10, Jake Malone's first Slave Dolls, Heavy Handfuls 3 (which has my favorite Loni scene EVER), DJ Yella's Reel 2 Reel...I even checked out Axel Braun's Complusion and Zupko's Opera. I feel like a proud pop seeing where they are today. Edited by - Crucifixio_Jones on 2/15/2009 4:37:19 AM

Crucifixio_Jones thanks for informations, We need such recommendations about Lauren Phoenix as we cannot see some new stuff from her anymore. When Lauren comes to my mind I always remember her scene in Grand Theft Anal 2, we can see her at the end of the scene all of a sweat. The scene is appx 25 minutes long, including an interview with her, where she has long heels and black fishnet stockings. I think this is a must see scene of Lauren Phoenix, she rimms Mark Davis and her makeup looks really good, too. By the way at the beginning of the scene Mark says "Just let you know, I am 6'2" and measures Lauren's height comparing with his. She has nice and long legs.
BiBob; Actually I did not wonder that as she was really popular when she was doing porn. I think she is the most popular pornstar from Canada compared to her fellow citizens Lanny Barby, Nikki Benz, Judy Star and Christee Lee. Only S.Stylez can be a rival for her.
Yes, Lauren Phoenix. She definitely gets my hall of fame vote. IMO, one of the best who has ever done it. I second all of CJ's recommendations. Each one had me captivated when I first watched them, and to be quite honest, they still do. Much love goes out to Lauren Phoenix and the work she has put in!!
