Tribute to the prolific Brigitte Lahaie

Yes, we have many words and pictures about the prolific Brigitte Lahaie :)

“After graduating from school age 19 Brigitte Lahaie moved to Paris looking for excitement and adventure. Brigitte hoped to earn a living as a model but to make ends meet took a job in a shoe shop. Answering an advert for models in a magazine Brigitte found herself unexpectedly on the set of a pornographic movie. Hardcore porn had recently been legalized in France…She has since described appearing in pornographic films as a kind of personal revolution. During this period Lahaie’s sexual behavior off screen was often as uninhibited as her performances on screen as she embraced with a passion Paris’ swingin’ nightlife. 

In 1987 Lahaie became the host of a radio talk show in France where she offered members of the public advice on their sexual problems. The same year she published the 1st volume of her autobiography ‘Moi, La Scandaleus’. The book was a big success so Lahaie followed it with another, a novel this time, which again proved successful enough to demand a follow up. She soon found herself in demand as both an author and as a television and radio personality. 

Brigitte Lahaie maintains that she has no regrets about any part of her long and varied career spent in the public eye. And why should she? In interviews she comes across as proud, romantic, independent, intelligent and, perhaps most importantly, happy to be who she is.”
