Mary Carey (born Mary Cook on June 15, 1980 in Cleveland, Ohio) is an American erotic actress and tongue-mostly-in-cheek politician.
Mary Cook moved to Florida when she was 7, and studied ballet and dance until she was 19 years old. She graduated in 1998 from the Pine Crest School, a Fort Lauderdale private preparatory school (alma mater of Kelsey Grammer and Wayne Huizenga). At 19, she decided to try to join her college dance team. After being part of the college dance team for a year, she tried stripping.
She loved being naked so much that she started to think about becoming a featured adult entertainer in the adult industry, shortly thereafter becoming an established erotic actress. She has been in numerous adult magazines, adult TV shows, adult internet sites, and adult movies. Her years of ballet paid off because now she can perform well with stage presence and flexibility and she can actually dance.
During the 2003 California recall, she was an independent candidate, placing tenth in a field of 135 candidates. She ran on a ten point platform, promising to:
- Legalize same-sex marriage
- Tax breast implants
- Make lap-dances tax deductible
- Wire the California Governor's Mansion with live web-cams
- Create a "Porn for Pistols" program to reduce the number of handguns
- Be a good-will ambassador to attract business to the state
- Make those drawing unemployment insurance do jury duty for their pay
- Fight the attacks on the porn industry by John Ashcroft and the U.S. Department of Justice
- Allow bars to stay open until 4:00 A.M.
- Address the AIDS epidemic
In April 2005, she was arrested in connection with a Lakewood, Washington cabaret sting operation.
In June 2005, she announced her desire to run for Lieutenant Governor of California as an Independent in 2006. She also attended a GOP fund-raiser with the president of the company that produces her porn videos and announced that she has become a Republican. Given her previous political record however, it is unlikely that she (or Californians) will take her candidacy seriously. Many members of the press forecasted that she would do something inappropiate at the dinner, as a publicity stunt, however she was completely formal for the occasion. Some, including Rev. Don Wildmon of the American Family Association believe that her new political leanings are an organized attempt to embarass the Republican party by showing a porn actress dining with the United States President.
