Raylene

The Latin sensation that is Raylene (AKA: Alexis Fontaine, Alexis Fontayne, Alexis Fountaine) has had a profound effect on the adult industry since her first performance in Shane's World 4 at the age of nineteen. A couple of years later, the buxom beauty signed exclusively with Vivid. Just a short time later, this move earned her the 1999 XRCO Starlet of the Year Award. This was just the first of many.With her exotic (Mexican-Jewish) looks, and shapely stature, Raylene is often sought after for her passionate, vigorous sucking, and gentle, yet dominating sex scenes. Her beautiful long legs are often showcased throughout her movies.But she also proved to be a solid actress. Paul Thomas's 2001 highly acclaimed feature, Artemesia, in which Raylene played the daughter of a painter trying to find her way through 16th century artists culture, earned her the AVN Award for Best Actress. Many critics still consider this to be her best performance.At the height of her success, Raylene announced her retirement from the adult industry, citing a desire to go into real estate and start a family. She still continued to dance until 2004, after successfully cage dancing for a 2000 Kid Rock Grammy Awards performance.Thankfully, Raylene returned to performing in hardcore scenes in 2009, in Raylene's Dirty Work for director B. Skow, in which she engaged in intense anal and DP. She was quickly embraced again by the community, and has been consistently signed since her return.In 2008, Raylene was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame.
