About Racquel Darrian

Racquel Darrian (born July 21, 1968, in Hutchinson, Kansas, USA) is an American porn star and exotic dancer.

She started her career as a nude model posing for lesbian-themed photoshoots. When she crossed over to adult film, she initially performed only in "all-girl" scenes. As offers increased for her to participate in heterosexual scenes, she began working onscreen with Derrick Lane (whom she married in 1994 and had a daughter with in 1997). She signed an exclusive contract with Vivid Video; eventually tiring of constantly working with Lane, she insisted on working with other men. Darrian divorced from Derrick Lane in 2000.

Racquel Darrian is sometimes referred to as the "brunette goddess of porn" and her most celebrated attribute is her derriere. She made about 100 adult films between her first film Warm Bodies, Hot Nights in 1988 and her final film Kink (also published under the title Girlfriend) in 1999. Darrian has appeared in Penthouse and Playboy magazines. She was the October 1990 Penthouse Pet of the Month, as Kelly Jackson', and in Playboy 1996 pictorial "Strippers".

Darrian has also appeared in numerous solo, lesbian, straight, and group pictorial spreads in Velvet magazine between 1990 and 2002 (including at least 20 covergirl or co-covergirl appearances) including several centerfold spreads and fold-out posters, as well as a "Dear Racquel" section in many issues containing letters from fans with responses by her.

Darrian was never with a woman before porn but later identified as bisexual and was in a relationship with Felecia Danay even during her marriage.

Freeones.com ranked her as the 5th greatest pornstar of the 1990s and the 8 most beautiful woman in the history of porn.
