Jenna Jameson (born Jenna Marie Massoli on April 9,
1974)[4] is an American pornographic actress and entrepreneur who has been
called the world's most famous porn star,[5][2][6] and "The Queen of Porn".[7]
She entered pornographic films in 1993 after having worked as a stripper and
glamour model. By 1996, she had won the three top newcomer awards from
pornographic film industry organizations. She has since won more than 20 adult
film awards, and has been inducted into both the X-Rated Critics Organization (XRCO)
and Adult Video News (AVN) Halls of Fame.[8][9]
Jameson founded pornographic entertainment company Club Jenna in 2000, with Jay
Grdina, whom she later married. Started as her own website, Club Jenna expanded
to managing websites of other stars and began producing pornographic films in
2001. The first such film, Briana Loves Jenna (with Briana Banks), was named at
the 2003 AVN Awards as the best-selling and best-renting pornographic title for
2002.[10] By 2005, Club Jenna had revenues of US$30 million with profits
estimated at half that.[5] Advertisements for her site and films, often bearing
her picture, tower on a forty-eight-foot-tall billboard in New York City's Times
Square. Playboy TV hosts her Jenna's American Sex Star reality show where
aspiring porn stars compete for a Club Jenna contract.
Jameson is also noted for her relative success in crossing over into mainstream
celebrity, starting with a minor role in Howard Stern's 1997 film Private Parts.
Her mainstream appearances continued with guest-hosting E! television, an
award-winning voice role in the 2002 video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and
a recurring role on the 2003 NBC television series Mister Sterling. Her 2004
autobiography, How to Make Love Like a Porn Star: A Cautionary Tale, spent six
weeks on The New York Times Best Seller list.[5]
