Bridget Powers (born October 11, 1980 in Boise, Idaho) is the pseudonym of an American erotic film actress with dwarfism. She is often credited as "Bridget the Midget" or with the alternate spelling "Bridget Powerz".
Her parents divorced when she was one year old. She had a number of operations between the ages of three and fourteen to correct bowed legs; the results left her with one straight leg and one that points to the left. As a result Powers has to wear a knee brace.[1]
Powers was discovered at a Goth nightclub by a man who was working as a make-up artist for a gothic vampire adult movie.[1]
She was a co-host on Ed Powers' radio show Bedtime Stories. She is also in a band named Blakkout.
She once told Howard Stern on his radio show that she always wanted to be tall when she was young.
In addition to her erotic film roles, she has appeared in mainstream films such as 8mm, S.W.A.T., Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, and independent films such as Tiptoes. She also appeared, as herself, in an episode of the talk show The Roseanne Show.
She appeared as herself in the 2002 HBO documentary series Cathouse which explored the lives of the owners, management, staff and customers of the Moonlite Bunny Ranch brothel in Mound House, Nevada. As "Bridget the Midget", she was featured in an episode of the History Channel series Wild West Tech. In 2006, she appeared on an episode of VH1's celebrity reality show, The Surreal Life.
She is mentioned in the Bloodhound Gang song "I'm the least you could do".
