I don't know what to say about this except express sadness for the situation because it appears on the surface that this was an unfortunate ending of a life.

It will be interesting when the details are revealed...I hate to speculate. I remember when I thought 56 was old, but as time marches on she was so young and a young daughter with no mother now is tragic to me.

i remember seeing her back in the 80's when i was in the biz.....she was a very very nice woman. as for the sex part.....she really enjoyed what she did. as a woman....she was lonely. sad. i think love and sex sometimes get confused in peoples minds. i dont know.....hope she didnt do herself in.

Marilyn Chambers was easily the Norma Shearer of porn. The one of the first of the named greats and every man of a certain age has a warm in his shorts for Marilyn. I think there are plenty of men genuinely saddened to hear this because of all the happiness she brought them when they were young.

Oh fuck... one of the sexiest women on the planet died. She was absolutely SMOKING hot, and had one of those awesome personalities that shone brightly through her sex scenes. She delivered the requisite bad dialogue with freshness and spunk.

I think many men have been looking for their Marilyn Chambers, she was as ideal a woman as any porn star has ever been.

This is truly sad news indeed. :frown1:

When Behind The Green Door was "premiered" the largest billboards in San Francisco had been plastered with these green ads that just had the title and "XXX" on them. We all waited for a month to find out what was the big mystery and people lined around the block of the theatres to see it. It was one of the few porn films to open in more than one theatre at the same time in the same city. And we were not disappointed.

It's an odd week, first Jack Wrangler and now Marilyn Chambers. They say deaths of the famous come in threes.

A little before my time but the passing of Marilyn Chambers was a topic at lunch among the late 50ish crowd one table over at the Caliente Resort in Land o' Lakes. By the mid-seventies Marilyn was trying to establish a recording career so she did a U.S. tour of strip clubs incorporating a live song from the X-Rated movie Insatiable with flashing her goodies; think American Idol with a pole dance. The dining nudist reported that Marilyn was a hit in Cleveland at the New Era Burlesque on Prospect Ave. And now both Marilyn Chambers and the New Era have disappeared into the pages of history.

Note: The song is titled Morning, Noon & Nighttime and is on Youtube. It's a melodic sort of "chic song" for an adult film I think. YouTube - Morning Noon & Nighttime - (re-posted)

She had been battling cancer during the past few years. I don't know if that's ultimately related to her cause of death. RIP Marilyn Briggs.
