LOS ANGELES—Christy Canyon, the legendary former adult star, former Vivid Girl (exclusive contract actress), current Vivid Radio host and author will be inducted into the Vivid Entertainment Hall of Fame on Wednesday, February 7.
A Pasadena native, Christy graduated North Hollywood High School in 1984, the same year she made her first video and the year Vivid Entertainment was founded. Her video sales took off and she was quickly established as a leading adult star.
She has won multiple awards for her acting and her autobiography Lights, Camera, SEX! which debuted in 2003, and has become a best-seller. She is currently writing the second volume, tentatively titled Danger, Curves Ahead.
“Christy’s career was symbolic of the industry’s excitement in the ‘80s and ‘90s. With her beauty, glamour and smarts she was the perfect Vivid Girl ambassador for the dynamic growth that developed during that period. Her loyal fans still connect with her daily on Vivid Radio. We are delighted to honor her with an induction into our Hall of Fame,” said Steven Hirsch, founder/co-chairman of Vivid. Some of her top movie titles include Comeback, The Show and the series Passages 1-4.
“My connection with Vivid is long and close,” said Christy. “This is truly the ultimate recognition for me and one that I will treasure. I look forward to talking to my fans about it.”
Christy’s fans can listen to her live daily from noon to 1 p.m. PT on her radio show, heard on VividRadio.com and on SiriusXM channel 415. They can also call Christy at 1-855-99-VIVID.
Hirsch created the Vivid Entertainment Hall of Fame to honor outstanding performers who have contributed to the company’s status as a world leader in adult filmmaking for more than 30 years. Christy Canyon is the second honoree and Savanna Samson was the first in 2016.
