Porn star Amber Rayne has been found dead at her home at the age of 31, it has been reported.
The adult film star, who has been in the industry for 10 years, is believed to have died in her sleep while at her Los Angeles home, reports AVN.
While her exact cause of death remains unknown at this time, Rayne is believed to have died on Saturday night or Sunday morning.
Speaking to AVN, director Stormy Daniels, said: “She was a really good friend, and one of the best actresses and performers that I've ever had the pleasure to work with, and I'm just glad that I had the opportunity to work with her and call her a friend.”

I wonder too, how is it that people are drawn into working in pornography. Are that many people just immoral, amoral, exhibitionist, drug addicted to the point of not caring, that they enter into a business which has broken so many who came before them???
Well, she was a boxer. Took a lot of shots to the face.
I never watch, so I don’t know.............
How is this news? A hooker is found dead. Probably happens a hundred times a day. The fact that most of her professional activities were captured on video doesn’t seem particularly relevant to me.
In Hollywood, porn is seen as a steppingstone to the Big Time.................
Probably meth aged her. Uglee too!
Really???
Have any porn movie stars made it in legitimate movies?? I just had never heard of pornography being a minor league or bush league team for mainstream entertainment.
Yep. Lots of tragedy comes out of that “industry”. I’m still mystified how it became accepted and legal sometime during my lifetime. Another case of “let them come out of the shadows”.
“Amber Rayne”? Is that in reference to a particular fetish?
Poor soul. RIP.
You can say that again!
Tracy Lords.
Without doubt, porn and the life style associated, is terribly hard on the “actors” and particularity the females. And, there are a lot of deaths of them at young ages. However, I don’t think we can rely on the statistics posted here, as they lack the number of actors participating in pornography during that “approximately” twenty year period.
Bad data.
Bad.
Nothing box office boffo or Neilsen rating heavyweight but Traci Lords was in legitimate TV and movies here and there.
I liked First Wave before she showed up in the second season.
A few years ago, she was at DragonCon and a very good friend of mine begged me to get her autograph. It didn’t matter to me either way. My wife thought it was OK too.
Near the end of the visit, we dropped by her table for my friend. I figured the usual short pleasantries at most. We actually talked a little for a few minutes about stuff. She thought the autograph request was nice.
My friend was ecstatic. So it was a good time after all.
Liberals on the Supreme Court.
MM did.
Rode hard....... put away wet
“I wonder too, how is it that people are drawn into working in pornography. Are that many people just immoral, amoral, exhibitionist, drug addicted to the point of not caring, that they enter into a business which has broken so many who came before them???”
Met many girls in my wilder days who did porn, stripping and/or nude modeling. I don’t believe it’s the job itself that breaks them. Except for certain people finding out and judging them, they all LOVED their jobs. Few people I met in any career expressed satisfaction for their jobs as much as they seemed to.
So why so much drug abuse? Sex work just happens to give young uneducated girls huge amounts of free time and very high pay- practically a recipe for drug abuse. Especially when they are surrounded by others living a similar lifestyle.
You see something very similar with young people who inherit money- lots of free money and time leads to drug abuse. Know several rich guys who buried their kids from overdoses.
