Shyla Stylez (started in 2001) Jenny Hendrix Briana Blair Misti Dawn Jaelyn Fox Mackenzee Pierce (retired & engaged per 12/28 tweet) Mallory Rae Murphy Lexxxi Lockhart Gigi Rivera Andi Anderson Natalia Rogue Lupe Fuentes (legal trouble) Kerry Louise Love (?) Rayveness (?) Who else? We also lost Hunter Bryce, Lori Alexia, Savannah Gold, make-up artist Lee Garland, Den from CAVR and AVN Hall of Famer Jane Waters this year. RIP A thought also to those who've been battling cancer this year: Raven Alexis, Hollie Stevens and adult model Tay Stevens.
I think Ashlyn Rae,almost all coming out from her are compilations and the rare movies might have been filmed long ago , she didn't even appear in any website during these months.
Pringles, Kerry Louise retired from B/G but is still in the biz. UK based - not sure if she plans to return to USA. Holly Halston has also announced on twitter last week she's finished with the biz. And you can add Jewels Jade to the list (assuming it was this year she quit?) ukmg
If Tori Black doesn't return to performing in front of the camera, it will be remembered as the year she left. Nobody else on the retired list has a huge following. I 2nd best wishes to those industry performers who have taken ill this year-always have enjoyed Raven Alexis's work.
melrose foxxx golden jade(according to IAFD she died august 11th,r.i.p) alisha madison(a.k.a ms panther) briella bounce london reigns those who technically are still in the biz(just retired from hardcore b/g) in addition to kerry louise are: charmaine star alexis amore eva angelina
i think that depends on how long her jail term is(if there is any truth to the rumors that she is currently doing time for possession of marijuana) also forgot to mention: monet devine gianna michaels(un-officially) daisy marie(originally switched to g/g only but she is expecting a child now so..) also echo valley and natalie heck(a.k.a savannah gold) died this year..car accident and brain anyuerism respectively Edited by - TDTxx on 12/31/2011 8:11:14 PM Edited by - TDTxx on 12/31/2011 8:12:47 PM
Amber and Adrianna are still shooting for kink.com (not sure how accurate i am (being new year's eve and all), but i'm pretty sure they both had updates there this month too). Is Bree really out for good? It was rumored around May at some point, but she returned with a new movie last fall.
Can we get a link to that? I've just been scouring the internet on this one and if this is referencing the attack in July 2010, she was fine after that (well, as fine as anybody would be after such an attack).
Also, this thread sucks! I was having a good day until I started reading some of these names! :( Rayveness has retired btw, I asked her, she confirmed it. She's trying to do other things now like writing and a brief stint in music. She goes by the name "Gina-Raye Carter" now.
This isn't referencing the attack. That and the fake twitter/facebook accounts caused confusion but UK-based producer Terry Stephens aka One Eyed Jack identified and phoned the crematorium and confirmed her death. I believe Terry got his start in porn through Jacco's company YourChoice. If Jacco and Killergram trust his word on that then that's good enough for me. I understand the caution being given and like Killergram said it's sad we even have to do that nowadays. thread regarding her death
could it be possible that sunny leone is done as well..? since she still is on India's Big Brother show and is considering signing a multi-picture deal with some Bollywood studio if thats the case then we may be hearing TWO retirement announcements at this year's AVN Awards(bree olson has gone on record saying she will be announcing hers at the show..)
The lovely shay golden left the biz this year after only a few months of entering it on account of gettin knocked up. *Mod edit: removed the last part of your post, that was uncalled for, not the greatest of comments. Please read the etiquette section of the site especially the third paragraph regarding this post, thank you. Edited by - Jonny Jay on 1/2/2012 7:37:24 PM
Tori Black is signing for Elegant Angel at AEE so I wonder if she's coming back; I didn't even know she had "left" in the first place. Did she say why?
last i saw she and her family live in florida..she was on that celebrity rehab follow-up show on VH1,she told dr drew that she was pretty much done.. however its been said she been sighted dancing at strip clubs and attending porn conventions
Wow, I thought she had just returned with bigger boobs or something. Guess we'll have to wait to and see. I'm sad to hear about Dia Zerva retiring aswell, she was awesome. Her scenes for Mike John are all classics!
I fear that Yurizan Beltran may have left the business. I waited a few years for Yurizan to go hardcore and her foray into the business, unless I am mistaken, appears to have been a short one. I am a guy that prefers natural breasts but Yurizan really does something for me. When she first started into hardcore her performances were probably a bit tepid but I think she has matured into an outstanding performer. Yurizan's scene with Mark Ashley in Boob Bangers 8 is one of the best that I have watched in a while and is probably in my top 3 favorites of 2011. Yurizan fucked Mark just as hard and with as much energy as Mark fucked her. Her oral work near the end of the scene was outstanding. She really got her oral juices flowing and managed to DT mark to the balls. It really wasn't a true DT since Mark had his balls pulled up but it was still impressive given Mark's overall size in length and girth. This scene, at least for me, was volcanic. Yurizan was really into it and it looked like both performers were getting each other off. Great stuff. Another scene that showed Yurizan's potential was her work with Manuel Ferrara in Big Wet Tits 10. Again, both performers looked like they were really into each other and fucked with a ton of energy and enthusiasm. Here's hoping that Yurizan has some new work out in 2012. Two other performers that I really got into in the last year but I am worrying may have left the business are April O'Neil and Haley Cummings. April is another performer that started her B/G work a little slow but has really improved her skill. She is petite but has a great body with outstanding tits. Her body was my initial attraction toward her but her performances and skill have improved to the point that she was able to maintain my interest. She also had some work done on her teeth to improve her already outstanding looks. I love April's enthusiasm and the degree to which she seems to enjoy herself. April is another performer that seems, at least to me, to work toward getting herself off as well as her partner. She isn't just going through the motions. I realize that Haley Cummings had time off to have a child and may not want to rush back but she is another performer that I find gives great performances and is great to look at. Toward the end of the year I think that she let her hair go to its naturally darker color from the platinum blonde and for me it made her even hotter. I know that many didn't like the hair color change but I think that it showed her true looks and I like those even better. Haley always gives a top-notch performance and is, at least IMHO, one of the best at fucking her partner back while she is getting drilled in the missionary position. A lot of female performers are so passive while on their back but Haley always manages to stay active and often makes it hard for her partner to not finish too early. She looks like she would be incredibly fun to fuck. She always gets her hips working in a manner similar to Cheyanne Bailey (if any of you remember her). (If not,look here: http://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=cheyenne99/gender=f/cheyenne.htm ) Cheyanne was another that worked her hips well in missionary and managed to fuck her partner just as thoroughly as she was getting fucked. Aside from Haley's performances and naturally pretty face, her tits, at least for me, are in the same category as Gianna's and Avy Scott's. If she does come back, it will be interesting to see how her body responded after her pregnancy. So, if some of my wishes for 2012 come true, we will all see new performances from Yurizan, April, and Haley.
The Brick and Mortar element of the biz is just about kaput. They're being zoned the hell out and stores not relocating. What's the term, "..dropping like flies". So I think Brick/Mortar is a major loss for many of us in the old timer traditionalist porn group.
She's still [ invalid url ] on her website is frequently updated, and she has recent scenes for Naughty America and Porn Pros. She's very active on twitter and from that I can see she went to the Penthouse Pet of the Year party and she worked with Nick Milo two days before Christmas. Not having new scenes every week or even month now is the new normal for many of these ladies.
I think April is still active but only shoots from time to time. Hayley is not really on hiatus because she has shot at least 2 videos with a major bump on porn fidelity. Of course she will be on hiatus once the baby is born but no clue for how long.
You guys realise that most of these performers will be back before the end of this year, right? I mean, seriously, how many times have Holly Halston and Eva Angelina "retired" now?
