Melissa Harrington (born July 9, 1982), also known by the stage names Melissa Lincoln and Melissa Midwest, is an American pornographic actress, businesswoman and web developer.

Melissa Midwest has appeared in magazines including FHM, Gallery, Maxim, Hustler, Perfect 10, and Playboy, and was once attributed as the ninth most searched-for name on the internet.

Widespread interest in several legal troubles led to her being labelled a "pornographic cause célèbre" in mainstream media.[1]

Legal issues[edit]

Harrington has been arrested three times due to indecent exposure stemming from activities related to her website.[2] In December 2003 Harrington was arrested and ticketed for public nudity.[3][4]

In January 2007, Harrington sued the city of Lincoln, Nebraska seeking $75,000 in damages with claims that Lincoln police had been harassing her by following her to her public appearances. She further claimed that the city has been actively discouraging local businesses from hiring her.[5]

Forced sex act controversy[edit]

In October 2006, Harrington was named as a co-defendant in a lawsuit by Hope Miller, a porn model also known as "Brooke Skye", in which Miller alleges that while performing on a radio program together, Harrington penetrated her with an oversized strap-on dildo against her will, at the demand of host, Bubba the Love Sponge Clem.[6] Miller voluntarily dismissed Melissa Harrington from all lawsuits she had filed against her.[7]
