Career

Centauro came to notoriety in France during the early 2000s when he and his then-girlfriend Clara Morgane became porn actors at the same time. Morgane, who performed most of her heterosexual scenes with Centauro, quickly became France's most popular adult actress. However, she retired from porn after two years, while Centauro wished to continue his career. The two eventually separated.[1] Centauro continued to perform in porn films in France, where he also started directing. He later relocated to Budapest, the porn capital of Europe, where he became specialized in gonzo pornography.[2] He was the in-house producer for Paradise Film Entertainment.

Death

Centauro died in Budapest of a cocaine overdose [3] on March 26, 2011 while he was in the shooting phase of his new film Nut, Butts and Euro Sluts 2.[2]

Personal life

Centauro was married to Hungarian glamour model and pornographic actress Vera Versanyi from 2005–2011.[2]

Centauro was a dedicated fan of the German rock outfit Rammstein.[2]
