Vince Vouyer, born John Albert LaForme on June 1, 1966, in Lowell, Massachusetts, United States, is a popular pornographic actor (porn star) and director. He is sometimes credited as Vince, Vince Voyeur , Vince Voyer or Vince Voyuer.

Vouyer moved to Los Angeles, California in 1989. He spent his first years in the western U.S. as a fork lift mechanic by day, and an adult strip dancer by night.

He became involved in making pornographic movies after meeting porn starlet Alicia Rio at a party. He appeared in his first sex scene on March 13, 1994. He has appeared in over 1,000 adult films since his debut in 1994.

When Vouyer first entered porn, he was known for several years for his very long hair and chiseled body. These days he keeps a short hairstyle, and almost always has his trademark goatee.

He spent the latter part of 1996 in a work furlough program as a result of his conviction on charges of 'procuring women to work as prostitutes'. Testimony from his ex-girlfriend, fellow porn star Crystal Gold, helped to convict him. He had to leave sets early for almost eight months so that he could be back at his halfway house by 9 p.m.

On September 7, 1998, he travelled to Budapest, Hungary, to shoot a porn film for a series called World Sex Tour. While out on the town with a friend, Vouyer was cheated out of a lot of money on a bogus bar tab. This led to a fight in an alley in which Vouyer was beaten unconscious and stabbed a couple of times in the back. He and his friend were hospitalized for two and a half days. Vouyer subsequently went back to work on World Sex Tour 16: Budapest. His wounds can be clearly seen in the video.

For many years, he worked mainly for Anabolic and Diabolic, porn companies that are connected to each other. After leaving Anabolic/Diabolic, he directed his own line of videos for the Red Light District company. Red Light District is the company that distributed the Paris Hilton porn video titled 1 Night in Paris. A scene directed by Vince Voyeur was featured in the special features on the 1 Night in Paris DVD, and was also included in the VHS version. 1 Night in Paris is one of the best-selling porn titles in American history. Vouyer left Red Light District in 2005 to start his own company, Vouyer Media, with the help of Wicked Pictures head Steve Orenstein.

Vince Voyeur also has mainstream exposure because he sponsors some mixed martial arts fighters. The fighters he sponsors wear a logo on their clothing that advertises Vouyer's website.
