Bettie Page & Our Favorite ’50s Pinup Girls

CANDY BARR

• Kinda the Traci Lords of her era, Barr is credited as the “first porn star” after she appeared/performed in the ‘51 “blue” movie Smart Alec at the age of 16. She later claimed she had been drugged and coerced into performing. Strangely we’re not really surprised that porn was even more fucked up back in the day.
