Houston (born March 24, 1969[1]) is a former American pornographic actress.

Houston began her career in 1995 after being discovered by Peter Davy, an adult-film director, while she was dancing in the Tropicana strip club. She subsequently became a contract performer for Nitro, and then left for Metro Global Media.[citation needed]

Houston is known for her work in Metro's The World's Biggest Gangbang 3: The Houston 620 (1999), a movie in which she reportedly had sex with over 620 men without interruption on February 6, 1999.[citation needed]

In 2000, Houston appeared on VH-1's Porn to Rock documentary, which chronicled the efforts of various adult industry actors attempting to make the crossover to mainstream careers in various rock and roll endeavors.[3] During the next few years, Houston appeared in cameo roles in various rock/rap videos, notably for bands such as Kottonmouth Kings ("Bump") and Sum 41 ("The Hell Song"). She released her first single, "What Do You Want From Me?" in late 2003 and made a subsequent musical performance at the House of Blues in Los Angeles.[4]

Houston has made numerous appearances as a guest on The Howard Stern Show. In 1999, she went on the show to promote the fact that she was having her labia surgically trimmed to enhance her "look" during close-up video work. Houston also claimed that her labia was causing problems during her dancing in strip club appearances. In a subsequent online auction, Houston reportedly sold her labia for an estimated $10,000 according to online auction, Erotic Bid.[5] Another appearance in 1999 prompted an 18-year-old Staten Island, New York high school student to call in and enlist the disc jockey's help in taking Houston to his senior prom. Houston cheerfully complied, accompanying the student to his June prom, despite some discouragement from a few parents and school administrators who believed Houston's presence would be distracting. The prom date initiated a relationship between Houston and the student, eventually having the teenager move to California and accompany Houston. In subsequent interviews, the two discussed their relationship and amicable parting.[6]

Houston has a daughter whom she sometimes refers to in her online blogs and her former column, Hangin' With Houston, for Adult Video Network Insider. She also has a twin brother who was in the California Highway Patrol. Houston also has had two American Bulldogs, "Mojo" and "Marmaduke"[7]

On July 22, 2008, Houston announced that she is battling melanoma.[8][9]
