She had sex with 251 men in 10 hours. Five at a time, four minutes each, no breaks. Guys mailed Polaroids of their d*cks just to get in line. She was 22. Two years earlier she was on a full law scholarship at King’s College London. She was promised $10,000 for the shoot. Never saw a dollar. The film made millions. The last man in line was Ron Jeremy. He’s in prison for r*pe now. Her name is Annabelle Chong. She was born Grace Qu in Singapore in 1972. Straight-A student. Gifted education program. Raffles Girls School, one of the most elite schools in Southeast Asia. Full scholarship to study law at King’s College London. The kind of student entire countries build futures around. Then London broke her. She was gang r*ped. She dropped out, moved to Los Angeles, enrolled at USC to study gender studies and art. In 1994 she answered an ad in LA Weekly for an adult talent agency. Five months later, on January 19th, 1995, she shot what became known as The World’s Biggest Gang Bang. 251 acts. Approximately 70 men. Ten hours. She called it a feminist statement. She said she was modeling what a “female stud” would look like, inspired by the Roman Empress Messalina. The film became one of the highest grossing adult titles ever made. She was promised $10,000. She says she never saw a dollar. In the video below, she sits on Jerry Springer’s stage and explains the logistics the way a catering manager would explain a buffet. How many at a time. How long each round lasted. What the application process looked like. Her sister is backstage crying. Wives and girlfriends are waiting to confront the men who showed up. She doesn’t flinch. Her sister comes out and says, “You’re killing us. You’re killing the family.” Annabelle responds by comparing herself to the temple priestesses of ancient Babylon. Jerry cuts her off. “You weren’t celebrating anything. You were lying down to get screwed by 251 guys to make a movie.” She looks at him and says, “To get screwed is a wonderful experience. I feel alive, Jerry. 1995 is the year of the pig. And I just feel that I started the year off right.” In 2003, she walked away. She earned a degree in software engineering. Today she writes code as a senior front-end engineer in California under her birth name. She once said, “Annabel is dead and is now replaced full-time by her evil doppelganger.” A law student from Singapore was r*ped in London, became the most famous gangb*ng performer in history, called it liberation, was never paid for it, and now debugs JavaScript for a living. The Sundance documentary was about the woman who broke the record. Nobody made one about the woman who broke herself getting there. Did the industry exploit a r*pe survivor who reframed her trauma as feminism, or did she exploit the industry right back and walk away before it noticed?
