I met her once briefly in a social setting. I'd been told who she was prior to arriving, but was asked to play it cool and just treat her as one of the crowd. It was a very small party hosted by a RnR guy and his family !
She looked cute from what I remember from 20+ years ago...
Today is Taija's birthday (according to most Internet sources) and I wonder whatever happened to her.
She was a hot blonde making porn in the 80's alongside the likes of Ginger Lynn, Amber Lynn, Traci Lords, and other memorable ladies but Taija always had that "something extra" that fascinated me. She made over 200 films and was one of the women I always looked for when choosing which film to buy/watch. That is, if she was in the film, that gave it an extra edge. She was one of the reasons why I started to edge my way into getting together with porn stars because she was one that I had always wanted to meet.
There were rumors back in the 90s that she had become a crack whore living on the streets somewhere. Various stories had her in LA, New York, Philadelphia (her home town) and Miami but no one has ever been able to substantiate the rumors and there were many who said that they were not true. But she seems to have disappeared. Probably living a "normal" life somewhere with husband and kids but maybe not.
If anyone knows what has happened to her, I'd love to know. And if you're out there somewhere reading this, Happy Birthday, Taija!.
She had beautiful all naturals. One of the oddest things I remember about her is a scene she did that included a facial, and she's laying on her back and moaning about loving the hot cum, and the camera stays on her for quite a while, then when she thinks the camera has cut off she says "can I get up now so I can get this shit out of my nose?"
How old would she be today, do you know?

No, unfortunately, she left the industry before I had enough creds to hook up with a porn star. Back then, in the days before the Internet and the openness that sites like this created, it was *much* harder to get contact info, and the references necessary to see a porn star.
But she was in a film called "Amber Pays the Rent" in which she and Amber Lynn were hot, young ladies who, you guessed it, paid the rent on their apartment by having sex with the landlord. Made me want to earn lots of money so I could buy a building and rent it out to beautiful women... 
Never quite made it though.

Taija ??
tah-EE-juh - 3 syllables
TAH-ja or TAH-juh - like rajah, RAH-ja, an Indian prince
TAY-juh - TAY juh
And don't yank my chain with "Taija Rae is pronounced Mary Smith."

Would you settle for throat-warbler mangrove? (Any Monty Python fans still out there?)
Seriously though, it's pronounced: tie-juh
