Exquisite Slave

Satine Phoenix is a Philippine-born retired pornographic actress, bondage and fetish model. She is also a painter, an illustrator and a gamer. Phoenix was born in Olongapo, Zambales, located in the Philippines. Her father is Sicilian and her mother is Filipino. She was raised in Sacramento, California. Phoenix was a computer programmer and a stripper in San Francisco before entering the adult film industry in 2006. The first part of her stage name comes from both the sparkling diamond from the film Moulin Rouge and the painting Satine Duralux from the book Bluebeard (by Kurt Vonnegut); and the second part is a reference to the empress’ symbol on the tallest mountain in China. Phoenix was also very open about her interest in S&M and bondage, and she came in fourth place for Best Comic Artist at the Bondage Awards in 2010 (Wikipedia).
