Mary was born into a rather dysfunctional family, as both of her parents were mentally handicapped, and so she was raised by her grandparents from a baby, although her mother moved in with Mary after she divorced. When Carey was seven years old, the family moved to Florida, and Mary continued to attend dance lessons she had started taking in Cleveland, and had straight A’s in school. At the age of twelve, she made her stage debut in “The Nutcracker” with the Miami City Ballet. Due to her dancing talents, Mary was offered scholarships from many prestigious institutions, however, due to her weight and poor health of her grandparents, Carey decided to leave ballet, instead enrolling at Florida State University, where she won a place on the dance team.
Since she had to provide money to take care of her grandmother’s deteriorating health, Mary found a job as an adult Internet site model, and later a stripper. Eventually, as suggested by her agent, she traveled to Los Angeles to look for adult-film producers and studios, finally getting a job with Playboy TV.
