Camilla de Castro – took her own life, 26th July 2005

Surely one of the most famous and sought after transsexuals in the adult industry, Camilla de Castro of Brazil, took her own life on Sunday 26th July 2005.

Camilla has a huge fan base among lovers of the Brazilian transsexual scene but she was far much more than that. She worked in main stream entertainment with a regular spot on a television show in Brazil, where she was a glamouress model and not the butt of jokes – recognised on the street and with the name, she nevertheless could not find happiness and in a drug fueled frenzy, leaped from her 8th story apartment building.

Louie Damazo, the webmaster of Brazilian Transsexuals with whom she’d had a relationship with as well as worked for, multiple times, stated: “She was one of those special girls, very beautiful but also with a good heart, I am very saddened to hear of this and I don’t think that Brazil will have another Camilla de Castro”.

She was 26 when she died.
