Sex sells, but who’s buying? Author Rita Rae Roxx was the Pamela Des Barres of the ‘80s. Half Japanese and half Czechoslovakian, Rita resided in Omaha, Nebraska – and at age 15 lost her virginity to BILLY SQUIER on his tour bus! At age 16, Rita road-tripped to Los Angeles, where she bumped into VAN HALEN frontman David Lee Roth at The Troubadour. He subsequently took her back to his condo, taught her how to roll a joint, and made love to her multiple times – an evening she refers to as “one of the happiest nights of my whole life.” Admittedly this all sounds unbelievable as Rita was still in high school, living at Mommy and Daddy’s house. Yet she designed and sewed her own revealing outfits, and certainly wasn’t shy – “who could turn down a cute girl with a pocketful of cocaine?” Yes, this is a true story. Drugs were the key to getting backstage, which led to after-show parties, which led to hotels and x-rated adventures. Naively, Rita believed “her encounters would be more than a one-night stand.” Undeterred by being nothing more than a notch on the bedpost, and finally turning 18, Rita did the horizontal boogie with Phil Collen from DEF LEPPARD. Much to Rita’s surprise, Rudy Sarzo of QUIET RIOT refused her advances. Trying to sound moralistic, Rita states, “It wasn’t like I would sleep with anyone;” and to her credit she said no to both Dee Snider of TWISTED SISTER and Gene Simmons from KISS. Taking the high road even further, Rita says, “I would never touch a married man.” However, she did the nasty with BON JOVI bassist Alec John Such and JUDAS PRIEST guitarist Glenn Tipton. Fully admitting that “the conquest became an addiction,” Rita went on to lay Adrian Smith of IRON MAIDEN and Bret Michaels of POISON. While the dirty details are few and far between, Rita does reveal that RATT’s Stephen Pearcy “had the biggest balls of any guy I ever slept with.” And Pearcy’s bassist Juan Croucier was the first to penetrate her anally. However, Rita’s “best sex ever” was courtesy of Ozzy guitarist Jake E. Lee. A vicarious throwback to the ‘80s, Once Upon A Rock Star is 200 pages of risqué romanticizing with a bevy of black and white photos thrown in for good measure. Currently Rita is “a hard-working Mom, active in her church.”
