Kay Parker

Kay Taylor Parker (born August 28, 1944, in Birmingham, England, United Kingdom) is a New Age author and former pornographic actress, best known for her roles in the Taboo series. She is a member of the XRCO and the Adult Video News Halls of Fame.

Kay Parker was reportedly introduced to the adult film industry during the late-1970s by actor John Leslie who suggested Parker to take part in one of Leslie's upcoming films at that time.

Upon hearing that it was a pornographic movie, Parker reportedly declined the offer. But eventually she got eased into the industry by only playing bit parts in non-sexual roles, until porn director Anthony Spinelli talked her into doing her first sex scene in the 1977 film, Sex World.

Parker's first on screen sex partner was porn actor Joey Silvera. And according to various interviews Parker gave during her active years within the industry, she revealed that Joey Silvera and she got a bit carried away during their sex scene, which ultimately got so vigorous and so out of hand that Parker actually got a chipped tooth as a result. Her chipped tooth is clearly visible in subsequent films in which she starred.

Shortly after the release of Spinelli's Sex World, Parker quickly became a sensation in the adult film industry. Parker became one of the most popular starlets at that time, and one of the most requested to work with by the male porn actors of the day. Her favorites included John Leslie, Paul Thomas, Herschel Savage, Mike Ranger, Joey Silvera, and Randy West.

She appeared in adult films during the late-1970s, and throughout most of the 1980s. Many of her devoted fans also greatly admire her for her acting talent, for being a more mature pornographic actress (she was in her 30s by the time she participated in hardcore sex scenes), as well for having large, natural 38DD breasts with big, pink nipples and a significant amount of dark pubic hair.

Her work basically consisted of vaginal and oral sex, dress up, lesbian encounters, and use of vibrators.

Her most famous role was that of the incestuous mother Barbara Scott in the 1980 porn film Taboo and the first two of its sequels. (Her "appearance" in the third consists entirely of stock footage; in the ninth, hers is a "non-sex" role.) In the original Taboo, Parker has sex with porn actor Mike Ranger, who plays the role of her son Paul Scott. In Taboo 2, Parker has sex with Kevin James, a young actor who portrays Gregory "Junior McBride Jr., Paul's best friend. In Taboo 3, Parker has sex with her younger son James Scott (Jerry Butler), whom she has mistaken for Paul, her older son. Also in these videos there are other examples of sex between characters portraying brothers and sisters, fathers and daughters, and mothers and sons.

The series of Taboo films developed very devoted fans, especially those who like incest fantasies. Many male fans admired Parker as a "mother" they could fantasize about. Parker has even taken on a type of cult-like persona as many of her fans talk about her and their fantasies in chat rooms.

She revealed during her commentary for the DVD Taboo: Special Edition that there was definitely a mutual attraction between herself and Ranger despite a 10-12 year age gap between them. She also hinted that she and Mike enjoyed many off screen sex romps after the filming for Taboo ended as well.

Parker played herself in the 2005 independent film Dick Ho: Asian Male Porn Star- a mockumentary about a fictional legendary Asian porn actor which included some interviews with known adult film actresses from the 70s in which they talk about their "memories" of the star.

Parker now works as a New Age metaphysical counselor and lecturer. In 2001, she wrote a book titled Taboo: Sacred, Don't Touch, in which she wrote about her early childhood, her career in the adult industry, and her experiences with the metaphysical.
