About Misty Rain
Misty Rain, born Michelle Marie Elmer on August 10, 1969, in Long Beach, California, is a retired American adult film actress. She grew up as a normal California girl, but her life took a dark turn when she became involved with drugs. Kicked out by her parents, she moved in with her 33-year-old boyfriend at age 17. She began stripping at 18 in Southern California clubs, then entered adult films in 1992. She used aliases like Misty Lane and Misty Raine. Over her career, she starred in approximately 230 films, debuting in Desert Heat. Her petite frame and natural figure made her memorable. She had brown hair and brown eyes, stood 5'7" tall, and weighed 114 lbs. Her measurements were 35-23-35 with a B-cup bra size. She was known for her performances in anal, lesbian, and group scenes, and she worked with stars like Jenna Jameson and Rocco Siffredi. Fans praised her as one of the best girl/girl performers of her era. A 2024 X post called her a 90s icon, and AVN described her as a dynamic performer with sultry charm. Her work in films like Taboo 13 and The Dinner Party remain celebrated in adult cinema communities.
Misty was a Vivid Girl in the mid-1990s and quickly became a standout in all-girl and ensemble scenes. She won the XRCO Starlet of the Year in 1994 and was inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame in 2004. Among her many awards, she won multiple AVN Awards for Best All-Girl Sex Scene, including for The Dinner Party and Fantasy Chamber. She also earned AVN nominations for Best Supporting Actress in films like Things Change 3 and Les Vampyres 2. Her career expanded into directing while signed with Metro Pictures. She retired in 2005 but briefly returned in 2010 for girl/girl scenes. Nina Hartley recalled that Rain's husband was a drug dealer who stayed on set with a bodyguard. Hartley said Rain later told her he beat and prostituted her, and she feared he would kill her. As of August 3, 2025, Rain lives privately with no active social media presence.
