Help Me

Here are some questions that I have for you. If you can help me out with these, the readers of The Bare Facts Video Guide would greatly appreciate it! Please email your answers to chosoda@barefacts.com. Thanks!

11.20.97 - LINDA SOBEK

A Bare Facts reader wrote to me and told me to check out the Playboy Newsstand Special magazine, Playboy's Book of Lingerie November 1995 issue. On pages 68 and 69 there are four photos of a model credited simply as "Linda," with no last name. The reader believes this is none other than model/cheerleader Linda Sobek, who was murdered by photographer Charles Rathbun in 1995 during a photo shoot.

I compared the Linda in the magazine to photos of Ms. Sobek and I'm pretty sure that they are different people. Although both Lindas have similar hair, and full lower lip, the Linda in the magazine has a thinner, more upturned nose and sharper chin than Linda Sobek.

I emailed a question about this to the people at Playboy Newsstand Specials and they responded with the following: "We can only confirm that the model in question is named Linda. We are only able to provide the information which has appeared in print for any of our models. If a model chooses to be known only by one name, we must honor her wishes."

If you have a copy of the magazine, please check it out and email me your opinion: Same or different Lindas? Thank you.

Follow up: Kip writes in: "I belong to a photo club whose members shot Linda a long time ago and they all agree that it is Linda Sobek." Thanks Kip!

Daniel wrote in with the explanation that maybe her nose is thinner because she had plastic surgery.

So therefore, I can only conclude that Linda = Linda Sobek.

More Follow up: I talked with someone who knew Linda and it is Linda Sobek.

2.3.97 - HELEN MIRREN IN MARIE CLAIRE MAGAZINE

I read in the newspaper that Helen Mirren celebrated her 50th birthday by posing topless for Marie Claire magazine. Anybody know the month and year of the issue?

Answer: Dave writes that he's pretty sure that it is the September 1996 issue. Thanks Dave!

9.3.96 - KEISHA FANS

I don't get to watch adult films as much as I'd like to. If you know what adult film actress Keisha looks like, I could use your help.

There is a new release, non-adult video tape called The Sweeper, starring C. Thomas Howell, probably on your local video store's shelf right now. A reader wrote to me and said that Raquel Rios (who was also in Watchers II) is also known as adult film actress Keisha. If you fast forward 0:32 into The Sweeper, you'll see her playing the part of "Mall Mother." She looks Hispanic. Let me know if you think this is Keisha. Thanks!

While you've got The Sweeper in your VCR, you can also fast forward to the 1:02 mark to see Kristen Dalton's buns and breasts, while she takes a shower by herself, then making love with C. Thomas Howell. (2 stars). Kristen has also been in Digital Man as "Gena" and Hourglass as "Laughing Girl." As for the rest of the nudity in The Sweeper, there are a few strippers with buns in T-backs at the 0:29 and 0:30 marks.

I'm sorry that the information on this web site has slowed to a trickle lately, but I've been watching video tapes out the wazoo, trying to get as much new information into the 1997 supplement as I can before the end of September!

Answer: Yes, Keisha is also known as Raquel Rios. Thank you to all those who replied.

8.4.96 - JULIA PARTON/NINA ALEXANDER

Does anyone know if Nina Alexander has done any boy/girl scenes (with actual intercourse) in the following adult films? The ones listed in The Internet Adult Film Database without (lez only) are: Double D Roommates (1989), Raunch 1 (1990), Sex Sluts From Beyond the Galaxy (1991), Taste of Julia Parton (1992) and Trick Tracy (1990). I don't regularly watch adult films, but someone wants to know. Thanks!

Answer From Joel C.: I do know of a film in which she does boy/girl. I believe the title was Let's Talk Sex (Caballero, 1983). It's about couples who call in their fantasies to Kitten Natividad. The first one is Bridgette Monet and Dave Canon. About halfway in is Mike Horner's fantasy in which he watches Julia with another girl and is invited to join in. He definitely does them both. It's the only boy/girl scene I ever saw her do.

I found a guy, Michael R. Troxell, who publishes a Julia Parton Fan Page at http://www.bdsnet.com/~mtroxell/Julia/index3.html

6.23.96 - ANGIE EVERHART

Model/Actress Angie Everhart will be starring in the sequel to 9 1/2 Weeks. Does anyone know if the full frontal shot of Angie lying dead on the table in the morgue in Jade was done by a body double or a prosthetic model or was it her?

Answer from two different readers: Yes, unfortunately, Angie DID use a body double for her nude scenes in Jade. Two readers reported back, one read an article in Entertainment Weekly and another read it in Paris Match. Thank you very much for responding. Well, at least we will probably get to see the real Angie in the sequel to 9 1/2 Weeks!

3.29.96 - FEM 2 FEM ID'S

Can you identify which women from the singing group Fem 2 Fem are nude on which pages in the December 1993 issue of Playboy magazine?

Answer from Brian S.: All names listed left to right

Note: Jennifer Wolf and Michelle Crispin do not appear nude in any of the pictures.
