Jeanna Fine, born Angelique Guden on September 29, 1964, in New York City, New York, grew up in a middle-class family. Of Caucasian descent, she began her career in the adult entertainment industry through exotic dancing in New York and Canadian clubs during her early 20s, which led to her introduction to adult film producers. She debuted in adult films in 1986 at age 22, using pseudonyms like Virginia Paymore, Angelica, Geanna Fine, and Jeana Fine, quickly gaining recognition for her intense performances and distinctive look.She appeared in over 400 films. She worked with major studios like Vivid Entertainment, VCA, and Evil Angel. Notable films include Deep Inside Jeanna Fine (1992), Hothouse Rose (1991), The Boiling Point (1990), and Blue Jean Brat (1991). She is considered one of the best actresses to ever perform in adult films, as her 4 wins as Best Actress by AVN attest to. Her performances were marked by raw energy and versatility, excelling in both heterosexual and lesbian scenes, with standout scenes in Hothouse Rose for its dramatic intensity and Blue Jean Brat for its playful chemistry. She collaborated with performers likeNina Hartley,Anna Malle, Rocco Siffredi, andTera Patrick.Jeanna began as a blonde-haired punk girl with natural 32 B cup breasts in the adult movie industry when she was 21 in 1986. She claimed that she wanted to take the world of porn by storm, but instead, she vanished after 50 movies that were made between 1986 and 1989 with a reputation of sometimes not even showing up on set. Fine would later attribute this to heroin use and has been vocal about her battles with drug addiction, which she would eventually conquer in the mid-1990s. She re-emerged as a brunette in 1990 and was engaged to fellow porn star Sikki Nixx who had been her boyfriend since 1988. However, the marriage never happened, though it was reported that they did go to the altar, but ironically, the minister never arrived.After her relationship with Nixx dissolved, she became involved in a poly relationship with fellow porn actressSavannahand football player Rich Bradford. The relationship ended badly, reportedly due to Fine's refusal to commit. Fine would later say, "Savannah and I dated from 1990-1992. We loved each other, but we were bisexual and not lesbians, there is a huge difference. So there was no future. We both loved rock guys, and we both had numerous flings with them during our time together. She badly wanted to get married to one and start a family. We tried a three-way relationship with another guy, but that was a disaster, and I ended it." Afterward, she met and fell in love with Jim Bernstein. They married in 1992, and in June 1993, her son Braxton Zachary was born.When Braxton was four months old, Fine kickstarted her porn career for the third time, this time now with short hair and large enhanced D Cup breasts, which would be her trademark, along with her new sexually dominant persona. She would be typecast in older woman roles for the rest of her career. This stretch from 1993 to her retirement in 2002, is how Fine is best known to fans. Reportedly, she walked into VCA president Russ Hampshire's office, sat on Hampshire's lap, and proclaimed, "I'm ready." She was immediately cast in the movie Latex.Fine's trademarks are her dirty talking, deep-throat blowjobs. Porn director Bill Margold considered her "the best blowjob in the business". She was also known for her penchant for rough anal and double penetrations, including spankings and hair pulling. In her lesbian scenes, she is almost always the dominant partner. Adult film starNina Hartley, in a 2006 LukeIsBack.com interview, described Fine as “a force of nature on set, bringing unmatched passion and fearlessness to every scene.” Fellow performerAnna Malle, in a posthumous tribute on her website, called Fine “my perfect partner, with a wild spirit that lit up the screen.” Fine is also noted for her faint resemblance to actressStockard Channing.Fine retired in 2002 at 38. There have been attempts by studios to bring her back to shoot in her 40s and 50s, but Fine stated in a 2013 interview, that she wasn't a fan of the industry in the 2000s and had no interest in returning. Despite her acting talent in adult movies, Fine almost rarely sought mainstream roles. She joked in interviews that being a good actress in adult movies was "like being the tallest dwarf".🏆 Hall of Fame InductionsAVN Hall of Fame:1997: Inducted into the Hall of FameXRCO Hall of Fame:1998: Inducted into the Hall of FameNightMoves Hall of Fame:2000: Inducted into the Hall of Fame (Editor's Choice)🏆 Major Award WinsAVN Awards:1991: Best Actress—Film for Hothouse Rose1996: Best Actress—Film for Skin Hunger1997: Best Actress—Film for My Surrender1997: Best All-Girl Sex Scene—Film for Cellar Dwellers 21998: Best All-Girl Sex Scene—Video for Doin' the Ritz1999: Best Actress—Video for Cafe Flesh 2XRCO Awards:1991: Best Actress for Steal Breeze1992: Best Actress for Brandy and Alexander1995: Best Actress for Skin Hunger1997: Best Actress, Single Performance for My Surrender1998: Best Girl-Girl Scene for Doin' the RitzFOXE Awards:1992: Female Fan Favorite1997: Female Fan Favorite⭐ Notable NominationsAVN Award Nominations:1992: Female Performer of the Year1995: Female Performer of the Year1996: Female Performer of the Year1998: Best Actress, Video for Miscreants1999: Female Performer of the Year1999: Best Supporting Actress, Video for The BJ Provider
