Chong was born and raised in Singapore. She was a student at Raffles Girls' School and Hwa Chong Junior College before going on to study law in London under a scholarship. During this time, she was gang raped in a rubbish store under an inner-city housing block. At the age of 21, she went on to graduate studies in photography, art, and feminist studies at the University of Southern California (USC), where she excelled academically and also began working in pornographic films. Chong went on to graduate work in gender studies at USC and currently works in California as an IT programmer.
Chong presented her work in pornography as an attempt to challenge the settled notions and assumptions of viewers about female sexuality. For example, her conception of a gang bang was based on the example of Messalina, a wife of the emperor Claudius. Historically, Messalina has suffered a poor reputation, a fact that some attribute (at least partly) to gender bias. Chong sought to question the double standard that denies women the ability to exhibit the same sexuality as men, by modelling what a female "stud" would be.

Pornography career
Chong started in porn by answering an advertisement in LA Weekly, which led to photo shoots and then an interview with director John T. Bone. Bone, recognizing Chong's talent, embarked on producing a series of films starring her. She was the new hardcore princess in her early gangbangs such as Sgt. Pecker's Lonely Hearts Club Gangbang and I Can't Believe I Did the Whole Team.

The production that propelled her into the limelight was another Bone production The World's Biggest Gang Bang. Chong advertised on adult television for 300 participants for the event. Even though only 70 or so participants turned up, this still caused a sensation in the porn world. As well as being the largest single grouping of men in a pornographic film, Chong had started a new trend. Even though the movie is one of the highest grossing in the porn industry, Chong was never paid the US$10,000 she was promised, which was supposed to cover her USC expenses.
Appearances in popular culture
After the event, Chong made a host of media appearances, including The Jerry Springer Show. This event also prompted author Chuck Palahniuk to write a novel, Snuff, on a fictional character who aimed to surpass Chong's record by having sex with 600 men. In her March 2000 appearance on the radio program Loveline, Chong admitted that there were slightly fewer than 70 men in her gangbang and that there were water and lunch breaks during the 10-hour time span. In 2007, a play based on her story, 251, was staged in Singapore by Loretta Chen.

The sensation caught the interest of university film student Gough Lewis. Lewis met Chong and embarked on producing a documentary about her, named Sex: The Annabel Chong Story. The film includes footage from the gang bang shooting, explores Chong's motives, revisits with her the site of her rape, and depicts a painful conversation in Singapore between Chong and her mother, who until then didn't know about her daughter's career. The documentary propelled Chong further into the world media as it became a hit at the 1999 Sundance film festival, where it was nominated for a Grand Jury Prize.
Retirement
Chong continued to work in the porn industry for a short while, directing and starring in movies as well as setting up a website. In 2000 she directed and performed in the gang bang movie Pornomancer, her take on William Gibson's novel Neuromancer. Afterwards, Chong retired from porn and according to the most recent archived version of her website, as of May 2003, Chong is a website designer and programmer. She has declined media interviews since leaving the porn industry and refuses to comment on her pornographic career.
