Chantel Lace
- Actress
Firefighter, combat veteran, police officer, boxer, dancer, wrestler,
no-holds-barred fighter, dominatrix, porn star and nurse, Chantel Lace
has had an eclectic career in both the adult industry and the straight
world. She made her adult debut in the early 1990s as an exotic dancer
following her honorable discharge from the Army. She was soon
discovered by rocker Alice Cooper and was subsequently hired as a
theatrical stage dancer for two tours. Chantel starred in a handful of
hardcore adult films from 1997-2001, but switched her career focus to
fetish fighting, wrestling and topless boxing for several internet and
video outlets after her final hardcore feature, "Gladiator." After
developing a cult following as a tenacious fighter, Chantel went on to
work as a professional dominatrix at the Moonlight Bunny Ranch in
Carson City, NV. She was featured on the HBO documentary show Cathouse:
the Series. Intent on standing apart from other porn actresses, Chantel
has always maintained "straight" careers in conjunction with her work
in adult film. She has worked as a truck driver, police officer,
corrections officer, and most notably a firefighter. In 2004, She made
national headlines when she found herself caught up in a scandal where
several members of the Central California volunteer fire department she
served with walked out in protest of her pornography career. Despite
rumors, she was not terminated because of the incident and contends
that she received offers from several other fire districts to join
their departments. Chantel resigned from the department following the
scandal and is now pursuing other career options, both adult and
otherwise.
