Most of her work includes [[anal sex]]. She married [[Scott Fayner]] on [[January 10]] [[2004]]. The marriage was annulled shortly thereafter.<ref name=lukeisback />
Taylor has done very few lesbian scenes. With the exception of a lesbian [[threesome]] in ''Penetration Nation'', those few scenes have been for [[VCA Pictures|VCA]] and all involved several girls at once. She also did a lesbian scene in High Desert Pirates with Felecia, Alexis Malone & Jynx, also for VCA Pictures. She has also never appeared in a scene with a black performer and has said she will simply not do [[interracial]] scenes, although she has been with [[Lloyd Banks]] in her private life <ref name=lloyd>[http://www.marksfriggin.com/news05/2-28.htm MarksFriggin.com - Stern Show News - Archive<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> and she has appeared in one scene with [[Rick Lee (heterosexual porn star)|Rick Lee]], an Asian male.<ref>See http://www.asian-man.com/preview/taylorrain.htm</ref>.

In the same year, she auctioned a day with herself on set on eBay for US$3,900.
Offscreen, Taylor formerly contributed to Fayner's porn industry gossip website [http://www.lukeford.com www.lukeford.com], but announced in May 2006 that she would no longer do so.<ref>http://www.lukeford.com/archive/2006-05-11.html</ref>
She performed her first [[double anal]] in ''Un-Natural Sex 12''.
=== Retirement ===
In December 2005, Taylor announced her retirement<ref name=retirement>{{cite web | author = David Woodman | title = Rain Retires from Performing | url = http://www.avn.com/index.cfm?objectID=EDA383E9-1372-4B41-C45BB90D64AEFC79&slid=448480 | date = 2005-12-05 | accessdate = 2008-03-11 | publisher = ''[[Adult Video News]]''}}</ref> from acting in pornographic movies in order to focus on [[film director|directing]] titles, and spending more time on her pay website, on which she submits photo galleries and hardcore videos, and chat with fans online. Taylor also announced in December 2005 that she wanted to settle down and start a family, and that retirement will allow her to do that.<ref name=retirement> In June 2006, she announced her pregnancy on her website<ref>http://www.clubtaylorrain.com/server.php?//list.blog=176</ref> However, she announced in a subsequent post that she [[miscarriage|miscarried]] one month later<ref>http://www.clubtaylorrain.com/server.php?//list.blog=241</ref>.
She was the winner of the Porn Star Beauty Pageant on the [[Howard Stern]] Radio Show in March [[2005]], beating out fellow porn stars [[Kami Andrews]], Railee, [[Renee Pornero]], and [[Aurora Snow]]<ref>[http://www.howardstern.com/rundown.hs?d=1109923200 Howard Stern.com<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>.
In February 2007, she spent 20 days in jail for possession of [[cannabis (drug)|marijuana]] and driving under the influence.<ref name=cannibis>[http://www.clubtaylorrain.com/index.php?//list.blog=461 clubtaylorrain.com<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> In a post that she made on her web site on March 20, 2007, Taylor wrote that she was given a choice between 20 days in jail, or avoiding jail time by doing community service and entering a DUI program, and she chose 20 days in jail. She also wrote that she smuggled 40 THC pills and 20 bars of Xanax into prison with her. It is not clear whether her driver's license was suspended upon her release from jail, because while writing about the things that she missed the most during her prison stay, Taylor wrote, "No driving and that's my favorite thing to do! Smokin a fatty, cruise down PCH, top down in the 650 w/ 2 pit bulls in the back enjoying the salt in the air, rockin out to Van Halen, that's what I missed the most! Guess what... I'm back full force! I missed life for 20 days!"<ref name=cannibis />
As of March 2008, she claims to be pregnant. <ref>[http://www.clubtaylorrain.com/blog/?p=5 Taylor Rain » Blog Archive » BEING PREGNANT<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
