From Times Staff and Wire Service Reports

Traci Lords and Brook Yeaton can say, truly, that theirs is a relationship right out of a John Waters movie.

Lords, 21, a one-time teen porn queen, will marry Yeaton, 22, the prop master on her latest movie. The couple met in Baltimore last year while filming the John Waters’ movie, “Cry-Baby,” which is slated for national release April 6.

Lords--part of an eccentric cast that includes Patty Hearst, Johnny Depp and Polly Bergen--plays a high school virgin in the film. Yeaton also was prop master for Waters’ last film, “Hairspray.”

Lords gained notoriety in 1986 when it was discovered that she had appeared in pornographic movies as a minor. She has since been acting in mainstream films.
