- 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.- IMDb Mini Biography By: Anonymous
