Sophie Anderson (23 November 1987 – December 2023) was an English pornographic actress and internet personality. She began appearing in pornographic films for such studios as Fake Taxi and Evil Angel in 2017, later finding internet fame in October 2018 when she and fellow porn star Rebecca More, who branded themselves "The Cock Destroyers", posted a video that went viral.[1] Both her and More's videos became memes and the pair were subsequently regarded as "gay icons", which saw them go on to front the Men.com series Slag Wars: The Next Destroyer (2020).[2][3] Anderson appeared on various podcasts discussing her life and also served as a team captain on the Canadian OutTV sex education quiz show Fucking Smart (2022–2023).
Early life
Sophie Anderson was born in Bristol, England, on 23 November 1987.[4][5] Her mother walked out on the family when she was five, and Anderson and her younger sister were raised by their father. Anderson's mother was emotionally abusive and would purposely buy her clothes that were too small to ridicule her about her weight.[4] Anderson moved to Bradford-on-Avon and said she began being sexually abused at the age of 10, knowing she could perform fellatio on men at local pubs in exchange for alcohol and drugs.[5][4][6] Anderson took an interest in drama and musical theatre at school and went on to attend Bath College. Whilst underage, she also worked in a massage parlour.[4]
Anderson gained internet fame in October 2018 after a video of her and fellow pornographic actress Rebecca More promoting a gangbang by calling themselves "The Cock Destroyers" went viral. She frequently posted videos on social media of her improvisational and often explicit songs she wrote during everyday life. One of which, "Driving For Dick" was remixed and released as Anderson's debut single as a recording artist in August 2019, as well as an acoustic version.[15] In October 2019, Anderson and More, featured in a non-sex role in A Tale Of Two Cock Destroyers, a gay pornographic film for Men.com which starred actors Jonas Jackson, JJ Knight, Leander, Joey Mills, Ty Mitchell and Johnny Rapid.[16] In 2020, Anderson and More along with gay porn actor Matthew Camp began presenting Slag Wars: The Next Destroyer, a reality television competition series on their quest to discover who will be named The Next Cock Destroyer.[17][18] In May 2021, Anderson announced on Twitter that she and More were parting ways, resulting in an indefinite hiatus of the Cock Destroyers.[19][20][21] Between 2022 and 2023, she appeared on the sex education quiz show Fucking Smart alongside Willam Belli and various other drag queens and guests.[22] She also appeared on various podcasts discussing her life and career in pornography including The Fellas and Anything Goes with James English.[23][24]
Anderson was a member and an advocate of the LGBTQ community, as she herself was openly pansexual.[4] She also had a son, and prior to his birth struggled with cocaine addiction which Anderson said she was determined to give up after falling pregnant and living in a drug house.[4][29]
She was known for her extreme body modification, including size 32J breasts. In March 2022, she was hospitalised after her left breast implant became infected with sepsis and later exploded. She opened a GoFundMe to pay for her reconstruction surgery and raised over £10,000. She had the breast reconstructed; however, it became infected again. Anderson posted various updates on her condition after it began leaking.[30][31][32] She had further breast reconstruction surgeries the following year.[33][34]
Anderson was in a relationship with Oliver Spedding, a former footballer turned pornographic actor who had three children.[14] In September 2023, Spedding posted numerous statements on Twitter suggesting that Anderson had died. Later that day, Rebecca More announced that she had been in contact with Suffolk Police, who had carried out a welfare check on Anderson, confirming that the statements made by Spedding were false and that news of Anderson's death had been a hoax.[35][36] Spedding died in November 2023.[37][38][39][40]
Death
On 4 December 2023, More announced in a statement on Instagram that Anderson had died at age 36.[41][42][43] She paid tribute to Anderson, describing her as a "bubbly, funny, kind hearted soul who was outrageous on the outside but also so gentle behind closed doors" [...] adding that they "shared a crazy time together that was totally unique to [them]" and that Anderson would hold a special place in [her] heart.[44][45][46][47]
