With her fiery scarlet hair, pretty round freckled face, awesomely ample, buxom and shapely figure, and infectiously bubbly good-natured personality, popular 1970s soft-core starlet Sharon Kelly was as endearing as she was alluring, a potent double whammy that, in turn, made the always exuberant Irish redhead absolutely irresistible. Kelly was discovered dancing at the Classic Cat club on Sunset Strip. The delightfully perky, comely, and enchanting Sharon made her film debut in the uproariously raunchy comedy The Dirty Mind of Young Sally (1973). Kelly greatly enlivened such choice lowbrow dross as A Scream in the Streets (1973), The Beauties and the Beast (1974), Sassy Sue (1973), Little Annie Fanny (1972), The Dirty Dolls (1973), The Boob Tube (1975), Alice Goodbody (1974), and Delinquent School Girls (1975). Sharon was severely mistreated by Dyanne Thorne in the first two notoriously nasty "Ilsa" features. She had a memorable unbilled bit as one of the titular lovely, yet lethal ladies in the terrific sci-fi/horror camp classic Invasion of the Bee Girls (1973). Kelly achieved her greatest popularity as SuperCherry in Russ Meyer 's outrageous Supervixens (1975). Sharon had small parts in two mainstream pictures: She's a woman who's covered with tattoos in Shampoo (1975) and the beautifully naked corpse of Ben Johnson 's murdered daughter in Robert Aldrich 's gritty police mystery thriller Hustle (1975). In the early 1980s, Kelly began acting in hardcore X-rated porno movies under the pseudonym Colleen Brennan. Sharon Kelly voluntarily quit acting in the late 1980s because of the AIDS scare and went on to create her own home recording studio for phone sex hot lines.

Red-haired porn star who actually showed some range as an actress. One critic wrote that she could say more by arching her eyebrow and raising her upper lip than most actresses could say with a page of dialog.
