Missy (September 24, 1967–August 13, 2008)^[1] was an American pornographic actress.

Missy, who was born in Burbank, California, began her career in the adult business in 1994, appearing in amateur videos with her then-husband Mickey G.. She quickly achieved fame, becoming a contract girl with Wicked Pictures. She was best known for performing in scenes with more than one male performer, and for her being on the receiving end of rather aggressive sexual intercourse – rather rare at the time of her career peak.

Missy left the porn industry in 2001, sending an open letter to AVN magazine detailing that she had found religion after suffering a "mental breakdown."^[2]

On September 29, 2008, AVN reported that Missy had died from an accidental prescription drug overdose over a month earlier in Valencia, Santa Clarita, California. The information of her death was deliberately withheld by her family as they did not want any of Missy's pornographic ex-colleagues to attend her funeral.^[1]
