About Rayveness
Rayveness, born Gina-Raye Carter (also known as Karen M. Swaim) on June 19, 1972, in Jamestown, New York, is an American former adult film actress of German, Irish, British, and Finnish descent, raised in the Quaker faith in High Point, North Carolina. Married a year before graduating from Ragsdale High School, she worked in fast food, babysitting, and as an Avon saleswoman before entering the adult industry at 18 in 1990, debuting with a homemade tape for Homegrown Video, inspired by seeing a couple become weathly from doing the same on The Sally Jessy Raphael Show, per Wikipedia and IMDb. Using aliases like Raveness and Ginger, she appeared in over 470 films, including Women Seeking Women 44 (2008) and Couples Camp (2010), initially performing only with her then-husband Red Bone (divorced 1997) and female stars, later transitioning to broader roles after their split, per WorldSex.com.
Known for her 36DD-24-36 figure, pale skin, and MILF/cougar roles post-2003, Rayveness pursued a brief mainstream acting career during a hiatus from adult films between 2000 and 2003, aiming to distance herself from her porn persona. To avoid recognition, she dyed her naturally dark brown hair red and used her birth name, Gina-Raye Carter, or the alias Karen M. Swaim. She landed minor roles in mainstream television and film, most notably appearing in the HBO movie Path to War (2002) as Lynda Bird Johnson, the daughter of President Lyndon B. Johnson, and in an episode of the ABC series NYPD Blue (2001), per IMDb and Wikipedia. These roles showcased her ability to perform in dramatic, non-adult contexts, leveraging her acting skills honed in adult films. Despite these efforts, her mainstream career did not gain significant traction, and she returned to the adult industry in 2003.
Returning to porn in 2003 and cementing herself as a MILF star, she became Girlfriends Filmsβ first contract star in 2009, allowing boy-girl work, and was inducted into the AVN (2015) and XRCO (2011) Halls of Fame, with a 2006 XRCO MILF of the Year nomination, per Boobpedia. She advocated raising the adult industry age limit to 21 in 2004, per XBIZ. Physically, she is 5β3β, with dark brown hair, blue eyes, and no tattoos or piercings, per IAFD. In 2004, she filed a petition with Congressman Brad Sherman requesting that the age requirement for adult performers be raised from 18 to 21, saying that "People right out of high school in this country don't seem to have the foresight to make such life-altering decisions."
Fans praised her as βa MILF goddess with soft blue eyes,β noting her Women Seeking Women 44 scenes (2024 comment: βRayveness eats pussy better than anyone!,β user: milffan72). A 2024 X post called her βa 2000s icon whose Couples Camp role is unforgettableβ (@RetroPornFan). AVN (2010) described her as βshowing you can start as a 20-year-old and then thrive as a 30-year-old in this business.β The Rialto Report lauded her βgraceful transition to MILF roles and advocacy,β cementing her as a 1990sβ2000s adult cinema staple.
Married to porn actor Tod Alexander (1998β2003), she took a break from 2006β2007 to have a son via in vitro fertilization, per Wikipedia. Retiring in 2015, she made brief comebacks in 2020β2021 and 2021β2023, per IMDb. As of July 25, 2025, Rayveness maintains an OnlyFans where she continues to produce adult material and interact with fans. Her films have endured in adult communities for her versatile performances.

The first time I saw Lady Rayveness having anal sex and drinking cum, I think I jerked seven times when I was 17. And I have all her videos saved.

Rayveness is one of the biggest porn stars and sluts in the world. She swallows cum with gusto in all her old scenes and usually has anal sex. She deserves the title of the most provocative pornstar in the world. She is both beautiful and has a good body.
