Savannah, whose birth name was Shannon Wilsey, was an illustrious American adult film star and rock groupie who led a life of unbridled passion and adventure, forging romantic connections with numerous prominent figures from the realms of music, film, and comedy. Her extensive catalog of conquests boasted an impressive array of high-profile individuals, including the legendary musician and songwriter Gregg Allman, the iconic rock star Billy Idol, the charismatic frontman of Mötley Crüe Vince Neil, the flamboyant lead vocalist of Van Halen David Lee Roth, the virtuosic bassist Billy Sheehan, the comedic actor Pauly Shore, the legendary guitarist Slash, and the talented actor Mark Wahlberg.
Savannah's remarkable adult entertainment career took its first steps in 1990, and it wasn't long before she catapulted to fame, ultimately achieving the distinction of being one of the initial group of Vivid contract girls. Despite amassing a substantial wealth through her collaborations with Vivid, securing lucrative endorsement deals, and engaging in various other business ventures, Savannah's penchant for reckless spending and her struggles with substance abuse began to spiral out of control, ultimately resulting in the termination of her Vivid contract in 1993.
Savannah's professional endeavors continued, albeit with smaller studios and low-budget Hollywood productions under her birth name, as her personal life remained marked by turmoil. Her on-again, off-again romantic relationship with Jeanna Fine eventually came to a close.
Just one day prior to commencing work on her next project, a severe car accident occurred on July 11, 1994, resulting in a broken nose and facial lacerations for Savannah.
Tragically, her life was cut short when she took her own life via self-inflicted gunshot wound, passing away that evening in the hospital surrounded by her father and boyfriend, Pauly Shore.
At the tender age of 24, Savannah's life was brought to an abrupt end, leaving behind a legacy that continues to captivate and haunt those who knew her.
