User:4.153.224.107 changed the description of her chest/shoulder tattoo, from being "a chinese dragon" to being "a sacred heart". A photo of the tattoo is here, and it's clearly a dragon. I'll restore the info (although it's smaller than I though, so I'll reflect that). I'm pretty sure one of the other tattoos she has is indeed a heart, but I don't know where. -- Middenface 22:33, 24 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Are there no PD images of Belladonna avilable? The current one used here is from a DVD cover, which can't be used on other wikipedias. -- Bomkia 16:02, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
The following was not cited. I have removed the content so that people may provide links to it or modify it so that it can be reintroduced into the article.
Any questions, comments or concerns? -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. Think out loud 12:44, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
theres absolutely no negative criticism of belladonna herself. im not saying that negative criticism is needed to make information accurate, but she's not jesus either(for lack of a less controversal, but "perfect" person). Just to give a background on my views, I have no problem what so ever with pornagraphy. Even if this article was about [put bad person here; i cant think of a universal enemy], having no good information about that person would sound just too one sided.
sounds like something an agent/publicist would write. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Teimu.tm ( talk • contribs) 21:25, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
She often introduces herself as Doctor Michelle Sinclair, aka Belladonna. Does she actually have a doctorate, and if so, what is it in? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 202.94.44.14 ( talk) 03:01, 30 December 2006 (UTC).

In the wake of the recent and tragic vandalisms that were recently visited upon this page I would like to recognize those studious Wikipedia editors that quickly acted to vacate the page of the aformentioned vandalisms. I would like to add that I am shocked that anyone actually cared enough about the subject matter to go through the trouble of reverting the vandalisms. My guess is that you truly care about the future of this encyclopedia and for that you deserve to be recognized. Bravo you brave men and women, bravo. 70.152.143.31 05:26, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
If you go to her website, enterbelladonna.com, and read her blog dated 9/23/07, you'd see that she has reconsidered her choice to retire from working with other people. And in subsequent blog postings, you can read or sometimes even see pictures showing that she is in fact interacting with other adult stars in her scenes. The edit indicating this was removed since it was "unsourced." Well, if anyone wants, the info is there on her site and should be altered here. I don't visit wikipedia enough to figure out how something should be correctly cited so I'll leave it to the experts. Nygoodliving 02:01, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
She doesn't look the same at all as the woman who, in the series, first worked as his office receptionist and then later as a porn star. Also, Fashionistas came out in 2002, and at that time, Family Business hadn't been shot, she hadn't gotten a boob job, and she hadn't started doing films. Of course, this is "reality television" and not reality, but in any case, the actresses do not look the same. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.164.68.65 ( talk) 20:54, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
It's been announced that she's going to be in the sequel to Pirates. I wouldn't know how to do it, but this seems significant enough to be mentioned in the article, seeing as it's anticipated to be one of the highest-grossing adult films of all time. 24.11.13.171 ( talk) 00:05, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Does anyone have the name of her debute movie? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dücanem ( talk • contribs) 22:58, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
A tattoo at age 12 does not entail a turbulent childhood, as the text now seems to imply. It is also a rather trivial piece of information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.155.200.200 ( talk) 06:38, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
By Ethnicity please name source !!!!!! This is Encyclopedy and not "I write in what I want " !!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.16.40.179 ( talk) 01:11, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
It seems to be suggested through a recent Vice article and her involvement in the film Inherent Vice that Sinclair wishes to be known as Michelle Sinclair now, rather than her porn stage name "Belladonna", I propose a move of the page name to "Michelle Sinclair" with the former title a redirect and a mention of Belladonna as "also known as".

An RfC which may affect this article's title is currently taking place ( Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Pornography#RfC: Should a person who has appeared in exclusively pornographic films be described as "(actor/-tress)" or "(pornographic actor/-tress)"?). Rebecca1990 ( talk) 06:29, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
There are a few thing about this article that I think are a little over the top for a BLP considering that she is definitely retired and can't be assumed to approve of microscopic attention to her adult career. I think the adult awards section is particularly excessive, and not notable. She was a popular adult performer, but has now retired and debuted in a modest film, a major Hollywood movie for an acclaimed director, and has recently finished filming another part in a prestigious production for another name director. She can legitimately be described as an movie actress, and can be assumed to not object to being described as such. Overagainst ( talk) 13:45, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
"She married Aiden Kelly, an actor," A single appearance, 4 years ago, as an actor (per imdb.com) doesn't merit stating that this is her husband's profession. Clearly, it isn't, earnings-wise. That would be like saying someone who cut down a tree in their yard years ago was a landscaper.
I think "an actor" should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Interzone826 ( talk • contribs) 15:42, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
A reference to the early group sex prison scene contained a description of slapping, abuse, and her being on the 'verge of tears'. The cited source for this statement (reference 3), contains no such information so I deleted it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.89.175.29 ( talk) 03:43, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
The three citations after the subject's name in the lead section are there to verify the subject's real name: Michelle Sinclair (born 1980 or 1981) [is] known professionally as Belladonna
. The
title of the article is irrelevant. —
