1980s/1990s Porn Superstar Victoria Paris Has DIed

Thanks, Victoria!

AVN is reporting that top porn star of the 1980s/1990s VHS porn years Victoria Paris has died. According to AVN, Paris died at the age of 60 last week of an unnamed cancer per fellow porn star Christy Canyon.

Paris was an absolute fan favorite who joined the business in 1988 and had earned a degree in nutrition from the University of Montana in her pre-porn life.

In 1990, she was AVN's Best New Starlet. She shared that award with fellow fan favorite beauty, Tori Welles. That year is the only year to date that the Best New Starlet award from AVN has ever been a tie. She also won awards for her sex scenes in VCA's The New Barbarians, VCA's Beauty And The Beast 2 and Elegant Angel's Snatched To The Future.

She appears in some pretty incredibly great/important to porn's development as a creative medium movies such as the very first Buttman movie from John Stagliano-- Evil Angel's The Adventures Of Buttman, Evil Angel's Mystic Pieces also directed by Stagliano, Caballero's Night Trips directed by Andrew Blake, director Alex de Renzy's Pretty Peaches 2 and 3, VCA's Hothouse Rose 1 and 2 directed by Henri Pachard and VCA's The Chameleon directed by John Leslie.
