Streaming Stars, Then and Now

This amazingly buxom blond bombshell is one of the true legends on the adult circuit. Porn star Candy Samples' name has become synonymous with huge-breasted bodaciousness over the course of her decades-long career. She's been in and out of the sex business since the early 1970s. She became a fan favorite through her numerous features and constant personal appearances.

She first got into the hardcore scene in the early 1970s, after a few appearances in some softcore features for director Russ Meyer like Beneath the Valley of the Ultra-Vixens (1979) (in which she was credited as Mary Gavin). She had long been one of the most sought-after models for magazine and poster work, and she began to parlay that into hardcore success. She starred in a string of hardcore videos during the late 1970s and early 1980s.

Candy was one of the stars of the notorious nudie flick Flesh Gordon (1974) (also as Mary Gavin), further solidifying her stature as the biggest name among chesty starlets. What just may be her hottest performance can be found in John Holmes and the All Star Sex Queens (1980), where she takes on Johnnie Keyes and Uschi Digard in a threeway romp. Candy continues to turn up now and again in archive footage in specialty tapes, although she tends to concentrate on her dancing and personal appearances these days.

Picked the first name Candy for her adult pseudonym because she had a sweet tooth.

Worked in the import/export industry prior to becoming a tearoom model and eventually a nude model.

The mother of a son who died in a car wreck.

Wrote a column for the adult magazine Juggs in the 1990&#39;s.

Profiled in &quot;Adult Movie Superstars - Volume One: Golden Age Photos&quot; by Jack Hunter. (2012)

Samples was elusive about her age during her adult career, with most in the industry believing she had been in her early 30&#39;s when she started. However, it later came to light that she had started at the unusually late age of 43 and been nearly 60 when she retired from acting.
