Kristara Barrington (born November 22, 1965 in New Orleans, Louisiana) is a former American pornographic actress. Her Eurasian appearance allowed her to switch between playing Asian and European roles. One of her most famous roles was a prostitute in 1985's New Wave Hookers.

Porn Star Kristara Barrington's exuberant sexual style and sweltering chili pepper-like liveliness was hotter than a sparkler on the fourth of July. Kristara Barrington was one of the hottest adult stars of the '80s, and still has an ever-present and loyally massive fan base. This beautiful Eurasian performer was born and raised in the United States, but could easily flip flop between playing Asian and non-Asian roles no matter the call for action Miss Barrington could really put out one hell of a showing.

True to her Sagittarius Astrological sign Kristara Barrington: Of restless nature, Sagittarius is easily influenced and quick to become bored. They love the adventure of travel and often feel the need to be outdoors. For Sagittarius, exploration is the spice of life, whether it is mental or in the physical presence of being. They are always optimistic energetic (nearly hyperactive) and often have good fortune just when it is needed the most. They are interested in the theatric performing and philosophical fields. Sagittarius has difficulty with follow-through, procrastination is often the case, and commitments are easily thrown to the wind for chance of adventure. Sagittarius prefers to keep all options open and often leans toward the single carefree life.

A Louisiana born - Chicago native, Barrington appeared in over 170 movies between 1984 and 1989.

In spite of the large numbers of men who seem to have an attraction toward oriental women there were few Asians in the X-Rated 80’s. Linda Wong was the first Asian porn queen, with a string of classic movies in the 70’s. Mai Lin also comes to mind. But the number one (no pun intended) Asisan star in 80’s porn was undoubtedly Kristara Barrington. Born in the US, Kristara never quite fit the mold as the stereotypical submissive oriental lady waiting to serve her master in whatever way he deemed fit. She was too American for that. As you will see in the closing moments of this scene, she could tell a man exactly what she wanted, in no uncertain terms. So if you like that innocent look which is betrayed by a dirty mouth, you are going to love Kristara.

Kristarra Barrington appears outstandingly in the 1983 documentary Fallen Angels. The small-breasted asian was also know as Kimberly Wong, Kim Warner and Chi Chi Ling in some of her early on videos. Barrington did anal sex rarely - in Caught From Behind 3, Deliveries in the Rear and Tailenders. She said she didn't enjoy such sex because no one could do it right.
Making over 150 adult videos during her career, Kristara combined a fresh attitude that made her an instant hit. Among her best performance in one of XXX's all-time best sellers, New Wave Hookers 1. Other great Barrington performances can be seen in Baby Face 2, Beyond Desire and House of Lust.

Her most notable performance came as the sushi delivery girl in New Wave Hookers. She gets railed by three men until she's so exhausted that she has to be carried from the room. Kristara's most famous scene that you'll never see was an S-M session with Jamie Gillis in Ecstasy Girls 2. The best scene of the film was done by Kristara Barrington receiving the advances of 80’s funnyman and porn star Jack Baker as kinky Jamie Gillis gets ready to join in the action with Kristara wearing hot wax in her sexy scene with Gillis.

Kristarra performed with spirit, and most any video that lists her name has a good performance. Her best productions include Jane Bond Meets Octopussy, Inside China Lee, BYOB, One Night in Bangkok, Rambone does Hollywood and Give It to Me.

In an article that ran on October 11, 1985, Barrington told the San Diego Union-Tribune while at a pornographic-industry convention that "I don't feel like a prostitute. I'm an actress; I am paid for a job. Sure you're selling yourself, but people sell themselves for all kinds of businesses."

Throughout the 1980s Kristara Barrington earned a reputation in adult films as a top performer. Often cast with such reigning porn queens as Traci Lords, Christy Canyon and Ginger Lynn Allen, this Asian beauty ranked just a notch below these icons in fan popularity, and her combination of exotic looks, a terrific body and enthusiastic performances made her a fan favorite. She eventually left the porn industry to continue her studies pursuing the vocation as a veterinarian but were not sure if she has completed those studies as of lately. Recent notification has placed our 80’s superstar in Chicago working with other friends of the family and supporting family members doing bookkeeping for a relatives Korean grocery stores.
