Desireé Cousteau (born January 1, 1956 in Savannah, Georgia) is a former pornographic actress of the 1970s and 1980s. She is best known for her roles in the 1978 film Pretty Peaches and 1979's Inside Desireé Cousteau.

Career

Cousteau started out in the early 70's as a mainstream actress, landing a small part in the 1974 "girls-in-prison" B-movie Caged Heat. Her mainstream career never took off, and soon she found herself drawn into the world of sex films. She worked steadily in adult movies from the late-1970s through the early 1980s.

She received the Adult Film Association of America "Best Actress" award in 1978 for her performance in the movie Pretty Peaches,[1] a film director Alex de Renzy considered to be one of his best. Cousteau played "Peaches", described as "a daffy carefree female who cheerfully plunges through life without any worries". In the film, she has a car accident after attending her father's wedding and is rendered unconscious. Two guys find her and take advantage of her; then offer to help her when it becomes apparent that she has amnesia. Peaches resolves to keep smiling through all the silly schemes and circumstances the guys come up with.[2]

In Inside Desireé Cousteau, a pseudo-autobiographical film, she plays a reporter trying to dissuade the men who are interested in her charms rather than her place in the workforce. She obtains the scoop of a lifetime from a presidential candidate, then tries a stint as a door-to-door saleswoman, where she has some unusual encounters. Trying to avoid more of the same, she finds a job on a luxury yacht, but gets involved with two porn stars. She finally accepts the fact that sex is the outcome of any job she tries; she sets her sights on a career as a porn star and "lives happily ever after".[3]
