Happy Birthday to Brigette Lahaie. Hard to believe that the first French porn star turns 55 today. On the other hand, considering my own age, maybe it isn’t so hard to believe after all. Brigette is still a very beautiful woman and continues to work as a radio/television host in France.
We remember her, of course, for her work in 70’s porn. She made her first hardcore movie as a shy, insecure girl and by the time she finished she was the brightest star in European porn. Her screen presence was so strong that she moved to mainstream movies, including a significant role in the 1990 feature Henry and June with Fred Ward and Uma Thurman.
