January 30, 1966 - April 10, 1995 / Aquarius / Age 29
Debbie Tays was an American-born Penthouse model, adult model, and actress, born Deborah Catherine Roach on January 30, 1966 in Evansville, Indiana, United States. Throughout her modeling career, she has also appeared under the names Carol Robbins, Cory Masterson, Debbie Tay or Space Alien, each marking a distinct chapter in her evolving on-camera persona.
Debbie Tays was crowned Penthouse Pet of the Month in August 1984, stepping into the spotlight at just 18 years old. With her statuesque 36-24-35 figure, charming brown eyes, rich brown hair, and natural breasts, Debbie radiates a fresh, playful energy — the kind of youthful allure that feels fearless, spontaneous, and impossible to ignore.
Debbie Tays brought a wild, unpredictable energy to Penthouse. Photographed by David Schoen, she stood out not only for her playful sensuality but for a personality that refused to blend into the background. Debbie had the rare ability to turn curiosity into magnetism — the kind of woman who made you wonder what she might say or do next.
Long before becoming a familiar voice on Howard Stern’s radio show, where she earned a reputation as part of the legendary “Wack Pack,” Debbie embraced being different. Her stories, humor, and larger-than-life imagination — including her belief that she could communicate with extraterrestrials — gave her an offbeat charm that made her unforgettable both on air and on camera. Stern famously nicknamed her “Space Alien,” a title she wore with playful pride.
Behind the bold personality was a woman who faced life with remarkable resilience. Even through personal hardship, Debbie kept her sense of humor and openness, channeling emotion into her work and public appearances. Later, she expanded into acting, appearing in projects such as Squirt TV and New Year’s Rotten Eve, further cementing her place as a cult favorite of the era.
For Penthouse, Debbie Tays represented something delightfully unconventional — sensual yet eccentric, glamorous yet disarmingly real. She wasn’t trying to fit a mold; she was creating her own orbit, and readers couldn’t help but be pulled in.
