Linda Lovelace Died!

[Mr 5 0]

Linda Lovelace was 53 and died from injuries she received in an automobile accident she was involved in on April 3rd in Denver, CO. She was on life-support. Her former husband had it removed; she was brain dead.

Here's her bio:

The name Linda Lovelace is known throughout the world, despite having only appeared in a few adult films in the early 1970's. Her prominence came from her starring appearance in the 1972 cult classic "Deep Throat". This well-endowed brunette made waves in this groundbreaking movie with her oral exploits with Harry Reems . Linda was to become the first superstar of erotic entertainment.

Having only appeared in a few sex shorts in the 60's and 70's, the movie "Deep Throat" marked her first and only full feature film. After this movie shot Linda into superstardom she became a marquee name that allowed filmmakers to use her as more of a marketing tool and less as an actress. From this point forward she would become a bit player with single scenes that exploited her world renown talent. The most notable if these was in "Exotic French Fantasies" with John Holmes. In the early 80's Linda began to spiral into the dangerous world of excess.

After her disappearence in the mid 80's Linda re-emerged as an outspoken opponent of the adult film industry. She wrote an autobiography and an anti-porn dissertation in an attempt to reinvent herself and create distant from her past as one of the pioneers of porn.

PKRWUD, I'm only going to make a wild guess at what her influence was on you - and I'll keep it to myself.
