Lily Thai (born November 7, 1981 in Honolulu, Hawaii, U.S.) is an American pornographic actress of Filipino and Italian descent; raised in Austin, Texas.

While attending college in Austin, Thai worked at local strip clubs and as a food server for Sizzler restaurants. Thai began performing in pornographic films in 2003. She has made over one hundred films in a variety of genres, including teen, fetish, Asian, and Latina. Thai is also known for her squirting scenes. In 2005, Thai was nominated for three awards from Adult Video News (AVN): Best New Starlet, Best Tease, and Best All-Girl Sex Scene.

In January 2005, an article by Geoffrey Kleinman posted on DVD Talk stated:

"[Thai has] decided to take a break from performing for a while. Even as she talks about stepping back for a bit she's constantly reminding me that she will be back. Who could blame her. For today these women are rock stars, they're famous even if they haven't made a single film yet."

This was not the first time that Thai had considered retirement. In the behind the scenes features of China Syndrome, filmed in 2004, she announced she'd be retiring. Also, the description of Lily Thai's Last Stand, states

"Hardline Studios present an interactive DVD starring Lily Thai in the last performance of her career!"

Thai's most recent film was made in 2007, titled Playgirl: Sexual Indulgence
Thai mentioned in an interview that fellow porn star Lucy Lee was once responsible for "ripping her asshole" resulting in Thai no longer doing anal scenes.
