Racquel Darrian (born Kelly Jackson on July 21, 1968[1]) is an American former pornographic actress.[2]

Career and personal life

Darrian started her career as a nude model posing for lesbian-themed photoshoots. When she crossed over to adult film, she initially performed only in "all-girl" scenes. As offers increased for her to participate in heterosexual scenes, she began working onscreen with Derrick Lane (whom she married in 1994). She signed an exclusive contract with Vivid Video; eventually tiring of constantly working with Lane, she insisted on working with other men. In fact, her exclusive on-screen commitment to Lane has been credited as the main reason to her waning popularity in adult films.<ref name=O'Toole>O'Toole, Laurence (1999). Pornocopia: porn, sex, technology and desire. Serpent's Tail. p. 377. ISBN 9781852427207. </ref> Darrian divorced from Derrick Lane in 2000. She has sometimes been referred to as the "brunette goddess of porn" or a "Vivid Queen".[1][3] Darrian was the October 1990 Penthouse Pet of the Month, as "Kelly Jackson",[1] and in Playboy's 1996 pictorial "Strippers".
