The "Legacy" of Traci Lords.
 

Who doesn't remember Traci Lords? But is she still considered persona non grata today?



The E! Hollywood Stories of Traci Lords



Her interview in The Late Show





And I think Veronica Hart reflects what most people in the industry feel about her.

too bad you dont pay as much as attention to your so called product like you do gfy

I'm pretty sure I saw something recently where she was making an "appearance" at an industry event. Can't remember exactly where it was, just remember shaking my head thinking, really? So many people in this industry seem to have extremely short-term memories. She's personally responsible for fucking over all of us who produce and/or publish content yet she continues to capitalize on her "legacy" while the rest of us pay the price for her actions. Truly unbelievable! She's the purest definition of "pariah" however it appears some are welcoming her at industry events!

nice to see you are still active ;)

I don't know about a "legacy" ……… But the "lesson" was the state of California can be fooled into issuing a real license with the wrong date of birth and the US government can be fooled in the same way into issuing a passport … But a porn producer accepting a VALID license and passport as identification can go to federal prison.

.

Ten plus years now! :thumbsup

Fucking amazing tits. She was my favorite when she first started.

----and you can turn yourself in when you're 18, have all your underage dvd's pulled off the shelve and sell NEW material that you had produced the day you turned 18 :thumbsup

we need to set her up on a blind date with mr marcus.

The legacy is at the bottom of every adult site: 2257:2 cents:

I met Linda Lovelace once, at a GlamourCon show.

She was selling t-shirts that read "I made Linda Lovelace Gag".

To be human is to be a hypocrite. Most people anyway, even if they are too blind to see it themselves.

If I remember correctly... The only two people who did anything wrong here are the only two people who never got into any trouble - Traci Lords for having the fake ID and the state of California for issuing it in the first place.

Ten points for anyone who can remember which girl also was in the same Penthouse issue that showed Traci's infamous underage pictures.

No looking it up on the internet.

jenna jameson

Incorrect

Vanessa williams, I think 84 was way before jenna jamesons.

Bingo. Remember that fucking scandal? Miss America in Penthouse.

Traci Lords was just the "girl of the month". I remember that me and my little brother were in the back seat and my dad was stopped to get gas. I found the magazine under the seat and stared at that spread until he caught me.

I just saw a movie recently called Exicision, where Traci Lords played the mother of a deranged high school girl. She was actually pretty good in it.

Yea, but I only remember it because I recently read Traci Lords book recently and I remember her mentioning something about it. But as for remembering the scandal, eh, I was in my terrible twos so nope lol not first hand :)

jennifer aniston!

.... you mean when she was finally 18 & did that one video, right? :winkwink:

no shit sherlock.

i actually purchased that penthouse off the stand.

I'll guarantee that Traci Lords wasn't the only, nor the first, under age performer using a faked ID. She was just the first to become popular enough that getting exposed was inevitable.

we just recently watched eraser again, good flick.

My friend had an adult book store and he had to pull all her movies off the shelf.

goddamn, shes cute in that interview:upsidedow

the scandal was having a Miss America winner in Penthouse. Traci lords wasn't famous at the time.

It's funny what people can get away with these days

Hyapatia Lee was in that issue, with her finger in her pussy. Magazines didnt usually show that kind of stuff back then.

Ten Points if you remember who shot the Traci Lords pictorial ;)

She was still hot

i'd prob poo on her...

Indeed, Alexandra Quinn did the same thing at age 17. Once the storm blew over, she was back in the business as if nothing happened. If anyone wants to take on the challenge, her underage scene is on a couple of tube sites. :winkwink:

She was awesome in Zack and Miri Make A Porno.

She did music too

:1orglaugh

Horrible actress - even worse in her non-nude roles. She wouldn't have went broke if not for the pipe dream that she could make it as a real actress. Should have stayed in porn.

Not sure about the big cities...but Traci's videos took a long time to pull from the shelves in smaller areas. I remember a local video store an hour west of Toronto that still had several of her underage titles on the shelf several years after the scandal. I casually mentioned it to the owner at the time (he was a business acquaintance) and he didn't seem to care. I noticed he kept the vids on the shelf even after knowing.

Granted, it was common knowlege in town the guy was into several other not-exactly-legal business endeavours and had cops in his back pocket for the most part.

I would fuck her so hard her underage sex tapes would disintegrate.

i'm glad she chose the path she did, if she became a waitress we may have never heard of her :2 cents:
