August Ames (born August 23, 1994 in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, died December 5, 2017) was a Canadian porn star. She was of Polish ancestry and was one-quarter African-American. She was also known as Hailey Edwards. August Ames was a lot of things. For one, she was a free spirit, meaning she let her natural impulses control her body. August's first job was working as a babysitter. Ames not only worked for two summers at a horse ranch in Colorado Springs, but also worked as a bartender and at a tanning salon prior to doing her first hardcore shoot in 2013. August committed suicide at the tragically young age of 23 on December 5, 2017. This one did hit us hard. Her measurements were 32D-23-28.
