I happened to be working in a porn shop in El Cerrito, California when porn star Belladonna busted onto the scene. She was friggen everywhere! There was not a porn box released in 2000 that didn’t have her gap toothed smile and bad tattoo on it. And when you didn’t think she was there… She was there… Hiding! I can still remember the cover of Barely Legal where she tricked me by having blonde hair, instead of black. I know that sneaky bitch did it on purpose to fuck with me.

I started to become obsessed with her, and not in the “I need to masturbate to her obsessed.” Obsessed to the point where I started having nightmares about her and talked about her non-stop. That is until my co-worker suggested I take one of her movies home, to help me get over my irrational fear of porn packaging. It worked. After spending a night alone together, we made up and became really good friends. True story! Belladonna almost drove me crazy once! Or it was my drug addiction. We will never really know.

I guess she missed me because now she has followed me to my new career, but this time I’m happy to see her. Shock Till You Drop reports that Michelle Anne Sinclair (her real name) has joined the cast of Stripped, a new horror flick starring Tiffany Shepis and Samrat Chakrabarti.

Writer John Wildman said, “We could not be more excited to have Michelle be a part of this project. She was someone that Justina Walford (Wildman’s co-writer) and I had in mind as a dream choice for this role from the moment we began thinking about casting. She has an innate openness and warmth that you can’t help but be drawn to. It will be a thrill to introduce her to a whole new audience and re-introduce her to Belladonna’s legion of loyal fans.”

“The film focuses on a birthday outing – with two brothers and a friend – which turns into a horrific fight for survival after they become trapped in a house with a ‘family’ of malevolent women.”

Welcome to the horror genre Belladonna! It’s nice to see we both moved on.
