View Full Version : Another lost angel - Lisa Kage RIP

There has been a rumour among a few people for a number of weeks that Lisa Kage died recently. We were unable to confirm that for sure until today with the help of a site member we managed to put together the pieces and get definate confirmation.

Lisa was a friend of mine since I met her on my first shooting trip to New York in either 1998 or 1999. We became friends immediately and she is one of the few girls I've worked with whom I continued to have a fantastic platonic relationship. She was intelligent, fun, witty, sarcastic, educated, well-read, prone to exaggeration, classy, an absolute tease, a born exhibitionist, a terrible drinker, a huge eater, artistic and different in many ways to a majority of the girls I've met over the years. She was working in a mainstream job when we first met and was doing the adult film work mainly for the fun of it, as much as the money.

My best memories of her were meeting her for lunch in Queens in 2001 - and she brought a picnic basket including champagne, eating clams with her and Tony Vee in Long Island and going to Coney Island with Tony in the intention of doing a photoshoot but we ended up just going on the rides (where Lisa of course insisted on showing off).

Lisa came out to Hawaii in 2003 to do some work with Frank and myself and we all had a great time.

I've been in sporadic touch with Lisa over the last few years, mainly because I've rarely been East coast and more pre-occupied with my own life. She last worked with us when she was in London to do some recording for a CD she was working on. She looked better than ever and Greg said she was great and in her usual high spirits.
I had no idea that she had been ill and it seems that I'm not alone in that, it was something she'd kept to herself.

I know my experiences with Lisa aren't unique. I've spoken to many people over the years and a few recently who shared a bond with Lisa which extended past the normal work ethics. She didn't just make you feel special, when you were with Lisa you were special - and so was she.

I am really sad to learn about Lisa's passing. I hung out with Lisa many times on a persoanal level, and besides doing some business, we were friends.

Lisa was always a truly sweet and wonderful girl. She was always helpful and kind, and always had a kind word to say about everyone.

The last time I saw Lisa was in London late last year. We were there together by coincidence and we talked every day on the phone and hung out a few times; last time I saw her was the @ The Way Out CLub in London

I know she had been planning on moving to London for a year. After that, we had not kept in touch so often. Lisa always laid low for a while then came back into the scene, so that was kind of the same rythym of our relationship.

Lisa was very funny and bright. She always made me laugh with a story she had. One of the best one's I remembered was her telling me how mother found out she was living as Lisa- and that was because he brother had seen her dressed on the street and had called her mom and her mother immidiately called her and said What is this yoour brother tells me about you being dressed up like Diana Ross on the street?'.

Not many people in this world might know that Lisa actually had a full time career outside of the adult business. She was the girl that thought me all about traveling over to the UK and how to establish myself there.

I will really miss Lisa and I am happy I had the chance to get to know her, and could call her my friend.

She was only thirty years old. . .

Condolences to her friends. Sounds like a cool girl.

(note of clarification: Irish wake type thing, hope her the best if there is a another world, and may the powers that be keep her happy)

Cheers

May the road rise up to meet ya, Lisa Kage.

this is unbelievable.
we've just lost two beautiful people... first Lola, now Lisa.
this has been a really tough period and it's just as
scary as it is very saddening.

i was wondering where Lisa was nowadays but i never
wouldve thought i'd be hearing this kind of news.
just shocking and very, very sad to hear.

i'll miss Lisa's smile.

My prayers and thoughts go out to all of Lisa's
family and loved ones.

I had the privilage of workin with Lisa a few times at Allanaha's partys, and whenever I saw her out and about, she would always say "hi" first. She was a sweet gal to hang out with, and very down to earth, not one of those "Diva" type girls. I am sad to hear she passed. May she rest in peace

I am saddened to hear of her passing. Most know her as a porn star, but she was a multi-talented individual; iirc, she was a gifted pianist among other talents. I only met her in passing at one of Allanah's parties, but she was a virbrant individual.

Requiescat in pace, Lisa.

Lisa and I "met" on the BTG forum several years ago. I grew up not far from where she lived. We exchanged emails sporadically over the years and talked on the phone a few times. What a sweet person, always asked about my mom, who still lives in Queens. I remember being a little bit worried about her when she began escorting, mainly because I didn't want her to lose that freshness that so defined her.

Lisa, I will miss you.

I need a drink.

man, what can i say, what can anyone say, shes gone. I have known lisa for almost 6 years, we e mailed each other a lot, she was a little spotty sometimes, but ultimately would respond if i bugged her enough. I went to a song and dance review she had on 57th st. in a showcase type scene, i thought it showed she had a lot of talent, enormous charisma, i didnt socialize too much at that event, but everyone there, looked llike real good hearted people, the vibe was very positive, just like lisa herself.

I hung out with here from time to time, saw her move from apartment to apartment, and then finally to a pretty cool little house in queens where she seemed finally to have a little security. She had a lot of love for her animals, a little dog and cat that she obsessed over. Over the last year or so, she was stressed big time, when her father took ill, and was going south to see him as much as she could, and was happy when he recovered....and then delighted when she learned her brother was moving to the area, i got the impression that her family meant a lot to her, and she was looking forward to seeing her brothers family on a regular basis.

lisa struggled with the xentertainment/escort thing, i think for her, some of the more public stuff fed her need to "perform", she was really part exhibitionist, but she battled and went in and out of the escort thing...i think deep down she diddnt like it, but had a hard time walking away from the money. She was smart and savey, and had a real 9-5 in real estate was by all accounts was pretty damn good at it. Above all, she was good hearted... she didnt hang with people she didnt like, and she treated people well, and with respect. sometimes i get pissed off at her, and wouldnt contact her for a while, and then just said fk it, because i really missed talking with her. She had a good ear for music and a great sense of style. On the review boards, i never read a negative thing about her. I am really missing her, because its not easy for me to have a real or even semi real connection to a t girl. Lisa excepted me, treated me square and was a reeal friend. I'm so sorry that over the laast 9 months or so, i wasnt in contact with her. She totally dropped off the scene, but i thought about her, and sent her a few invitations to events but got no response, and then a mutual friend recently told me of her passing...it shocked the hell out of me. ony 30 years, old, with everyting to live for, it is tragic and sad.....she was the real deal, dajuicy

I think what you asking us to do is wrong because it is based on speculation. I don't know what Lisa died of personally, and unless I had close confirmation from family then I would not dare to speculate on a public forum what she died of. You have the right to ask the question, but would any answer bur complications from AIDS satisfy you?

It's not safe to assume that EVERY transgender person that dies, dies from complications from AIDS. There are many, many diseases out there people do die from.

As far as you having oral sex without a condom- well that was is and was your choice. A lot of people get all hot and horny and then regret what they do afterwards in the heat of the moment. If you engage in an unprotected sex act, you have to assume half the responsibility.

Furthermore, a little education about oral sex and HIV- there is NOT one proven case of HIV transmission through oral sex. Check the CDC website if you have doubts. That is not an advertsiment to go have oral sex without condoms, because everyone seens to forget that there are a myryad of STD's u can catch from oral sex. But fact is the mouth is a very hostile place to the HIV virus.

Anyway- there is my peace on this subject and I hope this does not turn into a debate ad this is a memorial to a girl that some of us knew personally and will miss much.

and here r some details- just to keep us all safer

Oral Hygiene and HIV
If you kiss, rim and suck during sex you should avoid brushing, flossing and rinsing with mouthwash just before and after sex. Brushing and flossing can cause bleeding gums and temporarily strip away protective mucous membranes, which shield HIV and other germs from entering the body. They can also wash away saliva, which contains HIV busting enzymes. If your or your partner's breath is a nuisance, chew on a breath mint or gum.

Allanah, I like your last paragraph. Very good point for everyone to take note. Being with the same woman for many years, although we are swingers, we can take things for granted even though the couple or individual you get together with says that they are disease free. I had never really thought of flossing/brushing thing that way.

We are not sexually active with people we just meet, so the day I or my wife have to perform oral sex with a condom is the day sex becomes unenjoyable for us.

My heart truly aches, and I sympathize with her family and friends, at this their time of loss.

Further from what I have read this has been a tragic loss to the transcommunity as well.

If there is any modicum of solace to be offered in this situation, it is that she is in a better place.

May She Rest In Peace.

seanchai

cause of death is NEVER irrelevant. anytime news of someone notable (or not as notable in this case) dying gets out, cause of death is almost always a common question to be asked, and a common fact that is divulged. i think you are being too oversensitive by being unnecessarily defensive over people wanting to know a cause of death - just because of stigmas.

we all know that NOT all people of GLBT heritage die of AIDS-related causes. just like we all know that every death of a young black male isn't a gang-related. but i don't hear anyone, ANYPLACE else getting upset because people wanna know a person's cause of death.

we all loved Lisa and will miss her. that's the bottom line. her cause of death doesn't lessen that in my eyes and shouldn't in anyone else's eyes.

she was covering for allanah actually!

so thanx allanah for for bieng sick or whatever that night so that i could meet a wonderful person

lisa was really full of love and life and i get especially saddened when we lose a ts at a young age.

i know what a struggle and challenge it is to live that life and be who you are...and then to finally feel good in your own skin...it just sucks to be taken away early

she was 30, but really she was even younger, because theres a rebirth after you transition...so she was really only like 12 or so depending when she transitioned.

damn shame...........

she'll be missed...she was a smart fun girl.

rest in peace lisa...you took a lot of love with you girl

wendy48088

05-21-2007, 07:54 PM

Damn, that sucks. She never looked sick from the pics we could see. Wasnt losing weight, looked healthy. Did she have heart or liver problems?

Seanchai, was it something she didnt know she had? Can you tell us a little more about what she succumed to? Im shocked! :shock:

If they don't say, then it's safe to assume that they don't want to go into it.

It could have been any number of things.

I had a friend who was a former co-worker and a fellow Ham radio operator die about a year ago. Just that he "died suddenly and unexpectedly." No other details were given by the family. He was younger and (I thought) healthier than me.

It's frustrating not knowing, but you gotta respect the family's wishes.

It's best not to speculate if they don't specify.

I fail to see what difference it makes to you whether she was or wasn't. I mean you do take precautions with anybody you have sexual intercourse with, right? You don't believe that because someone says they're clean, they necessarily are - or even know if they are, right?
