Adara Michaels (born December 6, 1963) is an American pornographic actress and [[exotic dancer]].
Biography
Adara Michaels was born in Sandusky, Ohio. She began her career as a self-styled promoter. Adara and her partner Ed Marshall began an adult entertainment group called "The Women of Heartbreakers", a review show consisting of 10 women (patterned on traveling men's review show Chippendales) but it fell through when the investors and tour operators fell through. A second show, "Preferred Stock", featuring men and women and an elaborate stage show with props and costumes, also fell through, leading to Michaels filing for bankruptcy.
Becoming a [[topless dancer]] in Cleveland, Ohio, she won the preliminary round and a trip to New York City to compete in the "Miss Howard Stern" contest for Stern's New Year's Eve special. Though she eventually lost the competition, the exposure led to a number an increased demand for her performances, her increasing her bust line and finding her signature "look".
She and Marshall capitalized on her reputation, hiring choreographers and producers from past projects to put together a choreographed show, eventually forming "ScandalouS Duo" with fellow dancer Adrianna. According to the group's now-defunct website (www.scandalousduo.com), they began shooting layouts for men's magazines and going on tour, eventually replacing her partner, again and again, falling out with one after another, until nearly a dozen women later (several coming back and then being replaced again), the act died.
During this time, Michaels appeared on the Jerry Springer Show, claiming to be a nudist on an episode entitled "I Refuse to Wear Clothes," during which she came out nude both onstage and in a video shot by her partner Ed Marshall showing her walking around the city, going to the store, in a taxi cab, etc., all without clothes. Her family was then brought out for a typical Springer confrontation. Though the episode was never aired, it was released on VHS.
Film career
Michaels has appeared in half a dozen Pornographic films, including the Buttman series, doing non-sex nude scenes.
