The third of five children, Teri Weigel was raised within a devoutly Catholic family in the conservative city of Deerfield Beach, Florida. A natural beauty, she began modeling in her teens, appearing in catalogs for Saks Fifth Avenue and other high-end companies. She later moved to New York and signed with a major modeling agency, which placed her in Seventeen magazine and other publications. Modeling gigs in Europe followed. Upon her return to Florida, Weigel entered her first beauty contest and was named Miss Deerfield. As a result of Weigel's lingerie work for Saks and others, Playboy Magazine soon came calling. She did some test shots for the magazine, and was asked to become a Centerfold. She graced the cover of the November issue, and appeared as the Centerfold in April. Weigel found posing nude liberating, and she enjoyed the fame and money that came with being a Playboy Centerfold. Wisely capitalizing on her fame and exposure as a Centerfold, Weigel quickly became a sensation within the porn industry. She made her porn debut in 1991 when she was 21 years old. She had her breasts enlarged and almost immediately achieved superstar status as a result of her remarkable enthusiasm as a performer. Weigel went on to work in the industry for over a decade, performing in nearly 200 titles over the course of her career. She worked with many of the industry's most well known production companies, including Pure Play Media, Mile High, Wicked Pictures, JM Productions, and many more. She performed in a variety of niches, such as hardcore group scenes, interracial, lesbian content, and solo masturbation scenes. Notable films for Weigel include Watching My Mommy Go Black 2 (Blacks On Blondes), Interracial Gloryhole Initiations 7 (Hush Hush Entertainment), American Bukkake Does The Stars (JM Productions), a lesbian performance in Inari Loves Girls (Mile High), and a solo performance in Girls Home Alone 11 (Wildlife). Weigel successfully crossed over to mainstream entertainment in both television and films. She had a memorable appearance on Fox's Married With Children. She also appeared in a number of mainstream films, such as Predator 2, Sacrifice with Al Pacino, Marked for Death with Steven Seagall, Sunset with Bruce Willis and James Garner. There are also cult genre flicks such as Auntie Lee's Meat Pies with Karen Black, ,em>Cheerleader Camp, and John Landis' Innocent Blood. Over the years Teri has become involved in nearly every aspect of adult entertainment. In addition to making hardcore videos, she has appeared in numerous magazine pictorials and been a regular on the national dance circuit. She has also participated in a number of porn-related Internet ventures, including Sex Survivor 2000, in which several porn performers were placed in a house and encouraged to have as much sex as possible while subscribers watched. The project ultimately failed (primarily as a result of poor planning on the part of the producers) but the event once again proved Weigel's value as a porn princess.
