Retro pornstar Desiree COUSTEAU story
70s retro porn star Desiree Cousteau was born Desiree Clearbranch in Savannah, Georgia, in 1956. Together with her husband they moved to Los Angeles. "I moved to California and got a job as a topless dancer. I loved dancing so much I stopped going to school... My first job as a go-go dancer was at 'The Classic Cat' in Hollywood." Her dream was to be a movie star. "I thought one of the studios would take me in and shape me up. Of course it doesn't work like that anymore, but I believed the old legends... I wore tight sweaters, went to Schwab's Drugstore [where Lana Turner was first noticed] and had a Coke but I wasn't discovered." "I discovered that you had to do a lot of fucking behind the scenes to get in front of the camera. Everybody's 'friend' wants to meet you and ball you, and they expect you to do that."
The casting couch eventually led to minor roles in a couple of B movie exploitation films, at the time she was still working as a stripper. "I worked for Alex De Renzy at his club called 'The Playpen'. I was dancing there with three other girls - we put on a live sex show. We did a lesbian thing. Sometimes it was simulated on stage, and sometimes we did the real thing." It didn't take long for Alex De Renzy to notice her beautiful figure and full natural breasts and cast her in an upcoming porn film he was directing entitled 'Pretty Peaches' (1977). That was the point when Desiree COUSTEAU became one of the most repescted pornstar of the Golden Age.... starring 100s porn movie blockbuster and virtually tons of retro sex magazines including the First issue of Classic retrosex magazines SWEDISH EROTICA 1 with John HOLMES....to be continued.
