Tanqueray – I’ve Always Been Different, Part 2: Podcast 164

In the first part of my interview with Tanqueray, we heard the striking story of Tanqueray’s early life – long before she became such as viral sensation on social media as a result of her appearances on Humans of New York. She was called Stephanie and she’d had a tough upbringing, raised by a strict single mother in an all-white upstate New York area, and then a teenage pregnancy, an unfortunate relationship, and a desire to start a new life had somehow conspired to land her in jail as a teenager. When she was released, she moved to Manhattan – and worked in a clothing factory, this was back in the days when the city had a garment district, attended the Fashion Institute of Technology, and ended up appearing as a much in-demand go-go dancer in clubs such as the Peppermint Lounge. It was the 1960s, and she enjoyed a varied and exciting existence: she had a short career as an escort, became a seller of stolen goods, mixed with pimps, mobsters and The Temptations – and fell in love with an Italian called Carmine, who she married before discovering his drug addiction. But as the 1970s dawned, the go-go bars in New York suddenly seemed rather old-fashioned, quaint, and in terms of sexual excitement, tame and unexciting. If you could now see newly-explicit sex films in theaters, well… customers were keen to see something different and more daring in a live environment too. That left Stephanie at a crossroads: there were two options – she could either accept the brave, new world and became more sexual – which she referred to as ‘working dirty’ – or she could revert to being a more old-fashioned burlesque performer, and rely on tease, with a less racy act and props. Stephanie decided to follow the burlesque route and become Tanqueray. Stephanie and I recorded many of our conversations, and this is the second and concluding part of her story. This podcast is 40 minutes long. You can listen to the first part of the Tanqueray story here. —————————————————————————————————————————————– <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-1980-01-High-Society-01.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50738" src="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-1980-01-High-Society-01.jpg" alt="Tanqueray" width="466" height="648" srcset="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-1980-01-High-Society-01.jpg 466w, https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-1980-01-High-Society-01-216x300.jpg 216w" sizes="(max-width: 466px) 100vw, 466px" /></a> <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-1979-10-High-Society-01.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50737" src="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-1979-10-High-Society-01.jpg" alt="Tanqueray" width="468" height="648" srcset="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-1979-10-High-Society-01.jpg 468w, https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-1979-10-High-Society-01-217x300.jpg 217w" sizes="(max-width: 468px) 100vw, 468px" /></a> <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Snip20260521_2.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50740" src="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Snip20260521_2.jpg" alt="Ronnie Bell" width="434" height="648" srcset="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Snip20260521_2.jpg 434w, https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Snip20260521_2-201x300.jpg 201w" sizes="(max-width: 434px) 100vw, 434px" /></a>Ronnie Bell   <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Tanqueray-07.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50742" src="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Tanqueray-07.jpg" alt="Tanqueray" width="380" height="648" srcset="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Tanqueray-07.jpg 380w, https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Tanqueray-07-176x300.jpg 176w" sizes="(max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px" /></a> <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Snip20260530_2.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50741" src="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Snip20260530_2.jpg" alt="Tanqueray" width="541" height="648" srcset="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Snip20260530_2.jpg 541w, https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/RR-Snip20260530_2-250x300.jpg 250w" sizes="(max-width: 541px) 100vw, 541px" /></a> * The post <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/2026/06/07/tanqueray/">Tanqueray – I’ve Always Been Different, Part 2: Podcast 164</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com">The Rialto Report</a>.

Tiffany Clark (1961-2026), R.I.P.

The former adult film star <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0164557/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tiffany Clark</a> passed away this week. Some might say this comes with the territory when you cover an industry that began almost 60 years ago. But while Tiffany started in the business in 1979, she was only 18 at the time and just 65 when she died of cancer. Others might ask why I would be sad about somebody I interviewed once almost 10 years ago. But I lucked out with Tiffany. I got to know her for quite a while before we ever did the interview, and we’ve stayed friends ever since. Over the years there have been many dinners out and time spent with her family, both birth and chosen. Her home was full of people and animals and love. And Tiffany was always at the heart of that home. She didn’t have it easy over the years. She grew up in an abusive household that she ran away from when she was young. She struggled with drugs and went to prison. Performing in adult films and briefly running Plato’s retreat with her then husband <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/2014/12/14/fred-lincoln/">Fred Lincoln</a> was about the least transgressive thing she did in her early years. Then she met Barry who would go on to become her beloved husband until this day. They moved to Florida with Tiffany’s child from another father and started a new life, going on to have children of their own. And something remarkable happened – Tiffany, whose life had been the definition of instability, became a pillar of reliability. She was an anchor of love for her family and friends. She was a steadfast employee for companies that relied upon her. When her kids faced difficulties, she took in their children and raised them as her own. Tiffany and Barry renewed their vows in 2015 – a joyful event I was fortunate enough to be part of. This is a reprise of my interview with Tiffany, in honor of my special friend who I loved dearly and will miss deeply. For more pictures from Tiffany’s life, see <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/2016/06/12/tiffany-clark-scrapbook/">here</a>. This episode’s running time is 124 minutes. _____________________________________________________________________________________ <h2>Tiffany Clark</h2> <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3271.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13499" src="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3271.jpg" alt="Tiffany Clark Scrapbook" width="445" height="648" srcset="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3271.jpg 445w, https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3271-206x300.jpg 206w" sizes="(max-width: 445px) 100vw, 445px" /></a>   <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/2016/09/11/tiffany-clark/rr_tiffany_img_3093/" rel="attachment wp-att-14179"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-14179" src="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3093.jpg" alt="Tiffany Clark" width="648" height="553" srcset="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3093.jpg 648w, https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3093-300x256.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 648px) 100vw, 648px" /></a>   <a href="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3115.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13455" src="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3115.jpg" alt="Tiffany Clark Scrapbook" width="458" height="648" srcset="https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3115.jpg 458w, https://www.therialtoreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/RR_Tiffany_IMG_3115-212x300.jpg 212w" sizes="(max-width: 458px) 100vw, 458px" /></a> <div class="wp-block-html5-player-parent"> <div data-video-id="" class='wp-block-html5-player-video html5_video_players' class="wp-block-html5-player-video" data-nonce="e8e02a63a7" data-attributes="{"imported":true,"uniqueId":"h5vpdf8e9746","source":"https:\/\/www.therialtoreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Tiffany-Clark-in-Centerfold-Fever.mp4","poster":"https:\/\/www.therialtoreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/RR-Tiffany-Clark-Centerfold-Fever.jpg","options":{"controls":["play-large","play","progress","current-time","mute","volume","settings","fullscreen"],"settings":["captions","quality","speed","loop"],"loadSprite":true,"autoplay":false,"seekTime":10,"volume":1,"muted":false,"hideControls":true,"resetOnEnd":false,"tooltips":{"controls":true,"seek":true},"captions":{"active":false,"language":"auto","update":true},"ratio":null,"storage":{"enabled":true,"key":"plyr"},"speed":{"options":["1","2","3","0.5","0.75","1.25","1.5","1.75","2.5"]},"loop":{"active":false},"ads":{"enabled":true},"urls":{"enabled":false},"markers":{"enabled":true,"points":[]},"preload":"metadata","imported":true},"features":{"popup":{"enabled":false,"type":"button","btnText":"Watch Video","align":"center","btnStyle":{"color":"#fff","backgroundColor":"#006BA1","fontSize":"16px","padding":{"top":"10px","right":"20px","bottom":"10px","left":"20px"}}},"overlay":{"enabled":false,"items":[{"color":"#ffffff","backgroundColor":"#333","fontSize":{"number":20,"unit":"px"},"position":"top_right","type":"logo","opacity":0.8000000000000000444089209850062616169452667236328125}]},"endScreen":{"enabled":false,"text":"Endscreen text","btnText":"Watch Again","btnLink":"#","btnStyle":[]},"thumbInPause":{"enabled":false,"type":"default"},"watermark":{"color":"#f00","type":"email","text":""},"passwordProtected":{"enabled":false,"errorMessage":"Password didn't matched","heading":"Please Entire the password to access the video","button":{"text":"Access","color":"#222","backgroundColor":"#ffffffe3"},"password":null},"sticky":{"enabled":false,"position":"top_right"},"playWhenVisible":false,"disablePause":false,"hideYoutubeUI":false,"startTime":0,"hideLoadingPlaceholder":false,"saveState":false},"styles":{"plyr_wrapper":{"width":"100%"},"plyr":{"borderRadius":"0px"},".plyr":{"--plyr-color-main":"#00b2ff"}},"width":{"deprecated":true,"number":100,"unit":"%","isDeprecated":true},"provider":"self-hosted","onlyLoggedIn":{"whoCanSeeThisVideo":"everyone","allowedRoles":[],"message":"This video is only for registered users.
