Life
Samantha Fox was an intense dancer in her childhood and youth. She started dancing professionally even before she graduated from high school . She got into show business and became a co-host of a television show in New York. After that, she appeared in minor roles in porn films since 1977 . After she caught the attention of producer and director Chuck Vincent , he built her into a star by giving her the title role in Bad Penny (1978). In the following years she became an icon of the porn industry. In 1980 she received the AFAA Award for Best Actress for her work with Jack Wrangler - with whom she formed a kind of dream duo in the industry - in Jack 'n' Jill, Part 1 (1979). The following year she received the award again for This Lady Is a Tramp (1980). In her films she played mostly sex-hungry, self-confident middle-class women. With the advent of the videos and the change in public tastes towards busty blondes with silicone breasts, Fox's star began to decline. Her own demands made her shy away from video productions, and her New York accent didn't help her either. Only her long-standing friendship with Chuck Vincent, Gloria Leonard and Jane Hamilton (known as Veronica Hart ) brought her smaller roles. Ultimately, her name was also outshone by the singer of the same name Samantha Fox , who had also started as a nude model.
After appearing in 94 films between 1976 and 1985, she retired from the porn industry in 1988, which she also announced publicly on a 1990 talk show . After her career, Fox turned into a critic of the porn business, which she believed had made her an alcoholic because of the stress . She was only able to break free of alcohol addiction after years. She died at home in New York in April 2020 at the age of 68.
Private life
Samantha Fox was in a relationship with the porn actor Bobby Astyr for many years , whom she nursed until his death in 2002.
