Biography: Tai was born in Taipei, Taiwan and was later adopted by an American family in Arkansas when she was five months old. As a result, she has dual nationality. She attended the University of Arkansas.
She broke into the porn industry in 1996, under the names Blake Young and Brooke Young before adopting the name Kobe Tai. She is signed to Vivid Entertainment as an exclusive performer, and was the first Asian Vivid contract girl.
During her years as a porn star, Kobe Tai was notorious for putting a great amount of enthusiasm and energy into her scenes, which is very notable in some of her earlier work. One of such noted incidents occurred while filming 'Scenes from a bar'. Here, while lying on her back on a bar stool filming a missionary position, she became involved with the scene to the point where she spontaneously sprung up from the bar stool and wrapped herself around her co-star Peter North, surprising both the co-star and director Michael Zen. According to the article by Luke Ford, Michael Zen liked the scene so much that he decided to keep it. The scene was kept and is seen at the very end of the movie. The scene is considered one of her best scenes by many.
Tai married adult film actor Steven Scott, who performs under the name Mark Davis, in 1997. The couple divorced in 1999.
In 2000, she left the industry, announcing that she was expecting her first child. She had a son, born sometime late 2000 to early 2001. She returned to pornography in December 2001; her last film was Jenna Loves Kobe with Jenna Jameson. Since then, Tai has disappeared from the industry and is presumed to have left it behind permanently.
Along with Asia Carrera, she is regarded as one of the top Asian female porn stars of all time.
In addition to her roles in adult films, Tai appeared in the mainstream movie Very Bad Things as a stripper who was accidentally killed at a bachelor party.
