Another icon of my youth is gone.

Requiescat in pace



Kristel said she never regretted making "Emanuelle", but was surprised how it shaped others' perceptions of her.
"People don't assume John Wayne shoots people and rides a horse on weekends," she told a Dutch interviewer. "People think I'm a nymphomaniac."
