Sainclair first worked as a model for nude photography. She eventually met pornographic actresses at an adult entertainment convention in Rennes, and decided to try her hand at the sex industry. She worked for a time as a stripper, then made her first adult film in 1995, a semi-amateur production titled Maud s'offre à toi. Her first experience was a negative one but she eventually met producer Marc Dorcel who made her his first contract performer.[2] and "brand ambassador".[3] Sainclair went on to be the most popular adult film actress in France during the second half of the 1990s.
She won several awards in Europe and also made a small number of films in the U.S.[4] She received Hot d'Or Awards for Best European Starlet in 1996 and for Best European Actress in 1997[5] and 1998[6] (for Les Nuits de la Présidente – Video Marc Dorcel).[7][8]
In 1999, after her contract with Dorcel ended, she left the sex industry, and later entirely disavowed her adult film career.[9] She tried to reinvent herself as a singer, but without success.[10] In 2012, she sued her former music producer, who had also been her life partner, for rape and domestic abuse.[11]
