Biography

The quintessential girl next door, Erica Rose Campbell helped redefined the Glamour Model industry during her brief, but very successful career. Known for her radiant smile, voluptuous body, and glowing personality, Erica represented the last vestiges of a bygone era of the American centerfold and glamour model. Born on May 12, 1981 in Deerfield, New Hampshire, Erica got her start into modeling at the age of 16, doing promotional work, bridal shows, and promos for NASCAR. While as a nursing student in the early 2001, Erica decided to give nude modeling a shot. Describing herself as shy and unglamorous, she used this opportunity as means to come out of her shell. All the while thinking nothing would ever come of her short stint in the adult industry.

 

Starting out on "Amateur" adult websites such as Busty-Amateurs.com and MattsModels.com, the combination of her natural 34D-25-36 measurements along with her "All American" looks, she quickly became a fan favorite within the growing adult internet scene. With only a few months in the industry, and boosted with the confidence of a growing fan base, she decided to invest in herself and launch her own website, EricaCampbell.com later that year. Following the launch of her own website, it didn't take long for notable Photographers to take notice of her exceptional beauty. Over the next few years she continued grow her modeling portfolio by shooting with the likes of Suze Randall, Stephen J. Hicks, Viv Thomas, and Tammy Sands. She shot a variety of photography styles, including Artistic, Glamour, Amateur, Pin-Up, and Bondage.

Erica's work would not only be seen in the popular adult websites of the time like Danni.com, Suze.net, DDGirls.com, ActionGirls.com, and Twistys.com, but adult magazines as well. Erica would ultimately end up gracing the covers and centerfolds for some of the most popular men’s magazines around the world like Playboy, Penthouse, Bachelor, Hustler, High Society, Mayfair, Velvet, Lowrider, among others. She was also featured in a number of Adult Video titles, like Andrew Blake's "Justine" and "Ignite" by MacDaddy Entertainment. And a number of outstanding "Girls with Guns" vignettes in the "ActionGirls" series. She also self produced two DVD titles, "Mexico" and "Bedtime Stories". Although Erica did work in the adult industry, and shot with a number of adult actresses, she herself never ventured into the world of Hardcore Pornography. 

Erica was also very fond and appreciative of her fans. She would actively interact with them on her forums, fan boards, or email. Erica would also attended yearly conventions to meet, take pictures with and sign autographs for fans in person. Although she was not a complete open book about her personal life, she would always share her love of modeling, food, and her critters. Outside of her successful modeling career, she always continued with one of her true passions, animal rescue and rehabilitation. Most notably with horses. Despite the "Glamorous" lifestyle her modeling seemed to imply, she always remained a simple down to earth girl who both worked and lived on a farm. Caring for not only horses, but cats, dogs, and rabbits.

In 2003, her hard work began to pay off. Although her own request to model for Mystique was originally declined, she decided to try her luck again by entering their "5th Anniversary Model Safari" contest. With over 2000 Models entering, it came as a complete surprise to Erica that she was selected as one of the 20 finalists. After a week in Belize and shooting with Mark Daughn, the competition finally came to an end when it was announced Erica was "Mystique’s 5th Anniversary Model Safari" winner. And in the years to come, Erica’s glamour career would continue to gain new milestones. Playboy named her as "Special Editions Model of the Year" in 2005. A year later she was named Playboy’s Cyber Girl of the Week for the first week of June 2006 and Cyber Girl of the Month for October 2006. Erica was named Twisty's Treat of the Month for January 2006. And in 2007, she was named Penthouse Pet of the Month for the month in April.

It seemed like there was no end in sight of Erica's bright and rising star. However in May of 2008, just after launching her new website ClubEricaCampbell.com, she announced that she would be shutting down her website and canceling all future photo shoots and appearances and would be immediately retiring from the adult industry. In her final message to her fans, she revealed her long term pain and unhappiness about the industry she helped promote. She wrote:

 

I love you guys!
The Only Way Out

This message is to ALL of my friends and fans. I wasn't sure how exactly to start this...but I trusted that God would help me write this and maybe through me I could speak His word and make His will be done.....

For a long time I have been very lost. So lost in myself and in the world that I didn't even REALIZE that I was lost. I have always thought of myself as a pretty good person. I love helping people, I love befriending people, I love animal rescue and rehab. I care a GREAT deal for my friends and family and ALWAYS do whatever I can to care for them and make sure that they are ok. For a long time I THOUGHT that I was doing the right thing.....and doing my personal best......well...I was wrong...dead wrong.

Being in the world of adult modeling I see A LOT of pain....A LOT of heart break. SO many lost girls get into this business just for some extra money....to help pay for school....to help support themselves or even their children as single moms. "It's just temporary". They are only going to do this for a while...just a few shoots. I too started out to make some extra money to help me finish school. Almost ALL of the time It doesn't end where you think it will.....the path goes on......the hole gets deeper....and the road gets darker. MOST of the time the girls don't even realize it. One day you see this bright beautiful girl shooting tame nudes...the next they are signing on the dotted line of a hard-core porn company. Lost. Broken. Alone.

I being on the other side of these pictures you don't see the pain these girls are in. The struggle....the drugs that they take so they can get themselves through these sets. Sometimes it's just a show....you pretend to be someone else..become someone you never thought you could be...and the hole gets deeper.

I never thought of myself as one of these girls. What I have been doing "wasn't porn". I connect to well and so close with so many of my fans. I didn't realize what I was doing or why.

The past few years have been very difficult for me. That is no secret to anyone that knows anything about me. I have been working my tail off to support myself, my farm, my rescues, my family, and the list goes on. No matter how hard I worked.....no matter how many people or creatures I helped I STILL had that void inside of my heart and my soul. Connecting with person after person through my site as REAL FRIENDS. I understood the loneliness of the people that I would talk to...because I myself was so lonely. The more I shot...the deeper my darkness got.....the more I understood the pain of others. My friends and my fan. There is ONE common thread to so many of us online here.....the need to be loved, accepted, cared for, the need to have SOMEONE understand you and connect with you. At the end of so many of these emails was that loneliness. SO many men have asked me what they were doing wrong, how to find a special girl like me for THEM. How to fill that "void" in their hearts...in their souls. For a long time I thought I was helping to fill that void in the lives of so many, and in a way I was. But it was all a lie. I could never fill that void for anyone...only be a sinful band aid for it. Only cause the loneliness to deepen....only cause my own soul to ache more.

I have been looking so long and so hard for someone to love me. Love ME for ME. Fill that hole in my soul. Complete me. All this time the only thing standing in my way was me. I have been blind and wrong. On so many levels for so long.

I have decided to leave the world of adult and porn behind me....and follow the lord. I have accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior and am devoting my life to HIS WILL. I have found the one thing that can, will and DOES fill that void...and that's GOD.

I have been trapped in sin and destruction for so long. Disappointment after disappointment......painful venture after painful venture. I have been my own worst enemy. Holding the key all along that could set me free from the darkness that had slowly enveloped me....that was eating away piece by piece my soul. Burning the light out of my eyes so slowly that I didn't even see it....didn't know it.....

It is will a new clarity and a new purpose that I will continue my life. I WANT TO HELP THESE GIRLS! These lost souls.....these girls that are ABUSING THEMSELVES. Selling themselves for NOTHING. I want to help them STOP THIS PAIN. I want to show them the light.....and the love of Jesus. ONLY HE CAN FILL THIS VOID IN THEIR LIFE! HE IS THE WAY....THE ONLY WAY.

I also want to help my fans...my friends......This void in your life and heart. You seek pornography to fill it....it's only a bandage. Sin isn't ugly....it's beautiful. It can't fill the voids in your life. ONLY GOD CAN FILL THEM!

I love my fans, and I love YOU. I want YOU to feel this peace. I want YOU to get out of the darkness that is all around you. You can not live with one foot in Christ and one in the world. Our time here is so short....today could be your last day here. And what will you have lived for? Died for? There is only one way to heaven and eternal life....and that is through Jesus.

I will not and can not desert my friends and fans. The models.....the world. I can't and I won't. I am hoping that the Lord will work through me and guide me to do HIS will and help those that I can. Those that will stop and listen....those that will allow the Holy Spirit to fill them and speak to them as it has me.

I know that there are going to be a lot of people that will think this is a big joke....laugh.....wonder if I have lost my mind....well....I have news for you.... FOOLS MOCK THE TRUTH. There is ONE WAY. And only one way. I have found that way. I have FILLED THE HOLE IN MY SOUL! Filled that void that I couldn't fill with anything else. My life isn't about ME anymore.....My life is about God and HIS will. I want to spread HIS love. Tell people about Him......lead people home to Him. I don't care what you have done.....how lost you think you are....how hopeless you think things are......I HAVE GREAT NEWS FOR YOU! It's NOT TOO LATE. God LOVES YOU! He wants YOU. All you have to do is accept His gift. IT'S RIGHT THERE FOR YOU! Jesus died on the cross for OUR SINS. The price for us has already been PAID IN FULL.

I will not be attending glamourcon or shooting anything else. The next and last person that will see and enjoy my body will be a husband AS GOD INTENDED! I have asked for forgiveness for what I have done AND HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN! I will spend the rest of my life doing the Lords will and the Lords work. I AM HIS!

I want you ALL to know that I love you very much.....you ARE MY FRIENDS! I want you to know God.....I want you to get out of this darkness...this saddness and follow the word of God. There is ONLY ONE WAY OUT!

I will not abandon you......

Although she left the world of modeling on a bittersweet note and no longer wants to be associated with her past work, Erica's legacy will not be that of shame or negativity. While it is certain there are evils in just about every aspect in life, there are far more good ones. Although she did not realize it at the end of her career, Erica beautiful spirit did in fact leave a positive and meaningful impact on the world. Like Betty Mae Page or Norma Jeane Mortenson before her, Images of Erica will transcend the world of "Erotica" and will inspire peace, love, and happiness for generations to come. She’s certainly missed, but never forgotten. And given time, I’m certain more will appreciate the tender soul and remarkable woman beyond the photos. Thank you eternally, Erica Rose Campbell.
