Janine Marie Lindemulder born on November 14, 1968 in La Mirada, California, USA is an American exotic dancer and adult film actress, best-known for her work in American pornographic films (typically credited as just Janine), during the mid-1990's and a 2004-2005 comeback. After graduating high school in 1986, Lindemulder supplemented her income by working as a stripper. In 1987, she began modeling for Penthouse magazine, making her first appearance in the December 1987 issue, as the Pet of the Month. She appeared several more times in Penthouse over the next ten years, and was chosen as Pet of the Year Runner-Up for 1990. Lindemulder was married in 1988 (she had a son, Tyler, in 1991), and attempted to build a career as an actress in mainstream films. She is also the cousin of porn star and model Kelly Madison. Lindemulder made her debut in adult films in the 1992 movie Andrew Blake's Hidden Obsessions, quickly becoming a leading actress in the industry. She was known for the unusual reservation of only having sex with women on film - an agreement she reportedly made with her husband. Lindemulder became involved in a long-term lesbian relationship with adult film actress Julia Ann, and the two women comprised the exotic dancing act Blondage. The pair have performed in films and on strip club tours, finding their dance routine quite lucrative. Lindemulder divorced her first husband in 1996 and retired for the first time from adult filmmaking in 1999. Lindemulder remarried in 2002, to West Coast Choppers founder Jesse G. James. James left her in 2003, when she was seven months pregnant, (she gave birth to a daughter, Sunny James, on January 1, 2004). The couple later divorced. Sometime during her sabbatical, the actress had her arms extensively tattooed, and her breasts re-enlarged. She also had body modification performed between 2004-05, including the body piercing of her nipples and genitals. In January 2006, however, she won two awards at the AVN Award Show, and decided to rescind her retirement for a third time. She continues to perform, mostly with women, but occasionally engages in sex on-screen with men.
