Italian pornographic actress, born in Genoa, sometimes credited as Linda Heveret. She decided to start living on her own in Rome around 1980, when she was 19 y. o. She worked as a model and studied acting. She performed in different comedy movies and TV commercials. She was very ambitious, and in Rome she became the lover of many famous people as Bettino Craxi, Prime Minister of Italy from 1983 to 1987. Thanks to him she obtained a job at Rai TV on a kids' entertainment program. Her first hardcore movie resulted in a scandal as when the movie was in theatres, she was still working on children's TV. She denied being the same person but was suspended from TV anyway. In 1985 Federico Fellini wanted her for his film "Ginger and Fred". In 1986 she met Riccardo Schicchi, owner of Diva Futura, the agency of the most famous porn stars like Cicciolina. She was also appreciated for her sharp intelligence, despite the clichι of the stupid showgirl. She was friend of different intellectuals such as Mario Schifano or Dario Bellezza. She was the first to state that pornography does not mean dishonour and remorse. In the summer of 1994 she started feeling sick, increasingly lost weight and died of liver cancer on September 15, 1994, at the age of 33. |
