The news is just now starting to make its way around the ‘net two weeks after her death: the first porn-mainstream crossover performer, disco singer Andrea True (real name Andrea Truden), passed away on November 7th. True was best known for her worldwide disco smash “More, More, More” fronting her group, The Andrea True Connection. Allegedly, True had made a porno film in Jamaica and was paid in Jamaican money so she decided to hire out a studio and musicians for the day. “More, More, More” developed out of the demo she made that day.
The group was not a one-hit-wonder, however, as they scored follow-up hits “N.Y. You Got Me Dancing” in 1977 and “What’s Your Name, What’s Your Number” in 1978.
“More, More, More” can be heard in the TV commercials for Honey Bunches of Oats.
Andrea True was 68 and had been supporting herself as a psychic for several years..
