Video Actor: Gauge

Gauge, born Elizabeth R. Deans on July 24, 1980, in Hot Springs, Arkansas, is a former adult film actress and exotic dancer. Standing at just 4’11”, Gauge entered the adult entertainment industry in 2000 at age 19 to help pay for her education. Initially, she worked with her then-fiancé, Mojo, in amateur productions before gaining popularity in Ed Powers’ Dirty Debutantes series. She later transitioned to mainstream adult films, where she became known for her energetic performances and acrobatic skills, particularly in the gonzo genre.

During her career, Gauge appeared in over 140 films and earned accolades, including recognition as Best Pornographic Actress of the Year in 2001. Despite her professional success, Gauge left the industry in 2005 following a contract dispute.

Post-porn, Gauge pursued a career as a surgical technologist, but her past in adult entertainment often led to discrimination. She later retrained as a makeup artist, facing similar challenges in the workforce. Despite these setbacks, she continued her education and personal growth.

Gauge’s life reflects resilience and adaptability, navigating societal biases while maintaining a legacy as a notable figure in adult entertainment history. Today, she resides on a 25-acre property in Arkansas, embracing a quieter life away from the spotlight.
