The little blonde dynamo, we know simply as Devon began her career in porn all the way back in 1998. I can still remember some of the classics she starred in while with Vivid Video like Picture This, How to Marry a Millionaire, and Eve’s Gift.

She would go on to sign with other companies like Digital Playground but I’ll always remember her as a Vivid Girl.

Devon will always hold a special place in my heart because, for me, she was one of the first porn stars that I began marketing. Back then everyone promoted movies, but I decided my focus would be on the star itself. I figured if a guy liked a certain girl, they would probably want to buy one of her movies.

It was a technique that worked for me. I became one of the first-ever Vivid affiliates and went on to work with many of their girls. But Devon, she was special because she was one of my firsts.

That’s why I’m sad to report that Devon has been diagnosed with colon cancer.

Devon has shared a message with her fans recently about her battle with cancer.

“Scars are #souvenirs they tell a story… I’m still here,.. love ya all!” She goes on to say “No matter how healthy you feel right now, colon cancer can already be there, get checked…so u don’t have to go through what i have.”
