The 70’s was a time in the Adult Movie business where you had red carpet premieres and events that equaled mainstream Hollywood. One lady from that era who quenched the thirst of many a horny man was Sylvia Kristel, who has died at the age of 60, from cancer. Kristel, rose to fame in the erotic movie “Emmanuelle”.

Her agent, Features Creative Management, said in a statement Thursday that Kristel died in her sleep Wednesday night. Kristel, a model who turned to acting in the 1970s, had been fighting cancer for several years.

She went on to star in several sequels to “Emmanuelle,” as well as in Hollywood movies including “Private Lessons” in 1981.

In Hollywood, she sank into a world of drink and drugs. “I wish I could have skipped that part of my life”, she said in a 2005 interview with Dutch newspaper De Volkkrant.

NewzBreaker sends it condolences to the Kristel Family in their time of grief….
