Busty porn star dies after breast enlargement surgery.

From News.com.au:
A busty Big Brother star who got viewers in a lather when she soaped up other housemates' boobs has died after a breast enlargement op went wrong.

Porn star Sexy Cora - real name Carolin Berger - died yesterday afternoon following a massive brain haemorrhage, reports the UK Sun.

She had been in a coma for nine days at a clinic in Hamburg, Germany, after the op to boost her boobs to a 34G.

Her family were called to the hospital last week where they were told that Cora had been without oxygen during the procedure for 15 minutes and was in a "serious condition."

Cora died on Thursday at the Hamburg University Hospital, leading to an investigation into the plastic surgery clinic where she received the operation.

Husband Tim said: "The brain damage was too great. Her blood pressure dropped steadily, physiological functions gave out - then she went to sleep quietly.

German police are investigating the 54-year-old anesthesiologist and the 49-year-old surgeon who performed the operation on suspicion of negligent homicide.

Stern magazine said Sexy Cora's death also raised serious questions for the TV executives who seek out wannabe stars prepared to go under the knife for their art, saying the case "casts a harsh light on the trash industry."

It added: "How far are the stars of reality TV prepared to go in order to gain attention for themselves and their bodies? What dangers are they taking on?"

Cora recevied a Best Amateur 2010 award at the Venus erotic industry trade fair.

The tattooed porn star shook up the German version of Big Brother when she stripped off in the showers and sprayed soap suds all over other female contestants.
