I’m In Love With A Porn Star

I have a secret crush on Jenna Jameson.

Scrawny white chicks with plastic double Ds are usually not my type, but she does it for me. Why? I read her story “How to Make Love Like A Porn Star: A Cautionary Tale” and it was surprisingly inspiring. I’ve always been passionate about reading autobiographical stories. Stories about the people who started with nothing and completely turned their lives around. And that is exactly what her story is. Jenna managed to flip her life from being a victimized, runaway, drug addict, into a multi-million dollar public figure.

Of course, since she’s a Porn Star her story is that much more intriguing.

I’ve have never seen one of her movies and I don’t intend to. Yes, I watch porn, but learning Jenna’s story actually gave me this incidental respect for her. She sure did f*ck her way to the top, but she has this business sense and drive that most people in that industry fail to obtain.

Maybe she also turns me on a little bit…

*Other autobiographies I recommend: Bernie Mac’s, “Maybe You Never Cry Again”, Sistah Souljah’s “No Disrespect”, (based on true events) and “Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance”, by Barack Obama ( haven’t read Obama’s story yet, but it was given to me by my mother, it’s next on my list of things to read).

it's horrible.

Oh and the barack book? made me switch political sides to support him 100%

Diva said...

Bless her heart, she looks like that Spice Girl, the one that's married to and bangin Beckham.

I've not read the book, but I saw a special on her on E! or one of those other channels a few months ago.

Afrodite said...

I agree with Slaus, Jenna does look horrible now.

I just finished reading "No Disrespect" and it was profound to say the least. I loved it.

The people who not only rise to the level of "star" in this industry but are able to maintain that level for any length of time are fascinating.

Not only for the obvious reasons, but because it's just such a unique mental test to be in a career that offers so many specific rewards for such a high mental cost.

You kind of had to dig into Jenna's book to figure out which parts were marketing for her (at the time) ever-growing empire and which parts were actually her the person, but it is an interesting read.

At the same time, I think a lot of the downspiral she's in now has to be attributed to the fact that she's probably one of the most succesful women in that town who can't get any sort of real respect from the people she'd really like to be considered an equal with.

I think she honestly thought there would come a day where she could be "Jenna Jameson" and not "Porn Star Jenna Jameson" -- and it's probably never gonna happen.

The results on her physique, her attitude, and her present well-being come through in the pictures she takes lately a lot more than maybe even she realizes.


Autobiographies are great reads. Ice-T's is still one of my favorite things to read.

Krissyface said...

She used to look pretty but lately she looks like a fem bot who got a hold of a collagen needle and did her own self up. Nobody has cheeks like that. I'm not talkin 'bout her butt cheeks either.

LOOKING AT WOMEN AGAIN ARE WE????

CHA CHA said...

Thanks for the references...I will be checking those out. Ya know Heather Hunter has a book too....and while your at it COCO has her own mag...Im sure there are tons of vajay jay, camel toe, spandex ass and tits up in that jones LMAO!

Smitty said...

I'm all for any girl-on-girl action. But, respecting her in any fashion that doesn't have to do with her sex skills is absurd to me.

I think its so funny when porn stars try to quit the business and do "real" films after they have done 200 adult vids and had spooge skeeted in their eyes a million times. It's to late. even if you stop filming scenes there is still gonna be a vault of archives to sift through.

Yeah. I like autobios, too. I read Benjamin Franklin's awhile ago. I've also read bios on Clinton, Thomas Edison, Alexander the Great and Ronald Reagan.

I'm looking forward to George Bush's memoirs, which I hope he'll publish soon after he leaves office.

I watched a documentary on Ron Jeremy a few years back. Fascinating man! He's actually more than just a large penis. Interesting, eccentric, humble, sad.

Biographies inspire.

tha 1- yeah I think in some aspect she is one smart cookie…

ms. lady- yeah I heard about her lately, she had a rough time growing up and she’s been on and off drugs, so I wouldn’t be surprised if she was using again…

slaus- still hit it? lol oh wow, she does look kind of, used, but her brains aren’t completely hangin from her chest…yeah I haven’t read it yet but its been highly recommended…

diva- yeah she talks about her E! special in the book, haha she does kind of resemble Posh Spice…

afrodite- yes, I loved that book…

hex- thank you for that insight, I’ve never looked at it from a marketing perspective. And I agree, I hear she is trying to turn her life around, but it’s true once your seen as that type of person it is hard to change that visual/mind frame. However, people are more forgiving than we are willing to give them credit for…Ice T’s huh? I didn’t know he had one, I’m going to have to check that out…

krissyface- yeah lol I’ll admit without airbrush she does look like she performed her own cosmetic surgery…

lady c- naw it aint even like that lol yes that good controversy…

still_p- ok Heather H and Coco MIGHT be taking things too far lol I’m good…

smitty- I wasn’t aware she was trying to be taken seriously as an actress…I don’t think Jenna would even be the type of person to try and erase her past. She did mention in her book, that if it weren’t for all the negativity in her life she wouldn’t be where she is today…

bug’s butt- yeah I just watched this doc on Benjamin Franklin’s life too. Its amazing, because he did so much more before the whole declaration of independence and discovering electricity, that stuff came much later in his life…Ron Jeremy? Now that has got to be good! Where can I get my hands on that???

Steph said...

It's been a while since she looked like THAT! I was watching some Tanning show (a reality tv thing about a tanning salon in LA) and she was one of their clients. Bitch is stick thin and had that much plastic surgery on her face she's starting to resemble Joan Rivers.

Scary!!!

kit von b. said...

she's never gonna make my list of chicks to skoink...but i feel what ur saying. aside from being physically attractive, u dig how ambitious she is. so do i.

Anytime I feel like life is putting too much on me I re-read the Autobiography of Frederick Douglas.

As far as Jenna goes, she looks like her STD's got STD's.

maverick said...

well..shes hot but i ve never really enjoyed watchin her porn as much..as in when i do..i dont really give a damn to whose "acting" out there...lol..

eclectik said...

Im in love with what she can do.
Now that Lilly Thai???

Whoooooooooooo!

Oh yeah, her business skills...Club Jenna; she made moves :)

Good Post Nilla Nanner

Chelsea Talks Smack said...

I sued ot thik she was STUNNING, but lately she looks a bit bobble head-y to me.

Obesio said...

They always do that to themselves. Like Pam Anderson, JJ went from a stunning (mostly) natural beauty into a surgically warped monstrosity.

James Tubman said...

yeah she definately got a head in life lol

dag i didn't know i was that clever lol

i've seen her in action but not too many times

a lot of female porn stars probably have a similar story unfortunately

Kim & Dic said...

wow i am glad you finally found insporation and not from jesus or your family or anything else...but from a true inspriation, jenna jameson...i hope i will find the same wisdom after reading her novel!

All-Mi-T [Thought Crime] Rawdawgbuffalo said...

i have been asked if i was a porn star, but they said the couldnt see my face. lol. how ya been, ive been out of contact and forgive me but my granny died thurs nite, but ill be back with a vengance

Suite B said...

I'm not really sure what to say because although I laughed while reading, something tells me you are not joking. Maybe you can get on that Make--A-Wish list and ask them to hook up a meeting with her. Oh damn, I forgot that chairtyl...maybe you should go on Oprah.com and click on the Oprah Hook-up link!

Anonymous said...

She's become really unattractive since she started losing weight. THe whole anorexic/heroin chic look does not work... for anybody. But especially for a person who has a physically grueling job like hers. Its just not sexy watching a skeleton have sex. I need a woman with a bit of meat on her to get me off. Okay, too much information. I'll go now.

MsFreshBananaPuddin said...

steph- yeah I’ve seen her MySpace…but sh*t I don’t want to look like her…

karrie- thank you, I think you are the only one who got what I was trying to say…

skoolboi- Frederick D huh, yeah I read that awhile ago, I think I’d have to re read it to remember what its about though…lol @ stds having stds…

maverick- I still didn’t know anything about her trying to do “real” acting

e- Lilly Tai? Ok I don’t know ThAT much about porn…she smarter than people give her credit for…

chelsea- lol, yeah I’m not talking about her looks though, I’m talking about her story and business sense…

ob- yeah Pam looks semi drag queen these days…

james- you re stoopid lol yeah,or there wouldn’t be any lol

nyc chick- yes! I’ve found my mentor and inspiration in life, don’t be jealous…

torrance- I’m sorry to hear the news! Hope you are doing ok…write about it, let it out, unless you already did…

suite b- man I think you got it all wrong, her story just inspired me period. We can leave Oprah and the children out of this experience…

what- lol yeah well I wasn’t planning on getting off on her, I just aspire to be successful like her, that’s all…

Jazzy said...

I read biographies too. I'm nosey and it really does allow you to look into someone's private life.

Co-sign all of the biographies you added to the end. I loved them all. My fave is Souljah's "No Disrespect". I really wish she'd write another book.

I'm iffy on Jenna's bio...hadn't really crossed my mind to get it, but maybe I will.

So@24 said...

Jenna was hotter when she had more meat on her bones.

Just sayin

Slaus of O Hell Nawl said...

I would slap someone momma right now for some purple skittles..

i know it has nothing to do with anything.. but.. I neeeeeeed the purple skittles.

p,s, back in the day? Jenna could get it

Don said...

You're in love with a porn star...I'm in love with a stripper.

Damn.

I've always rooted for her. Say it ain't so! (relapse).

Marleaux said...

Hmm, I may have to get that book. Seems like an interesting read. I actually like to watch a lil show on the porn channel (*whispering* Shh, don't tell nobody, but we have those extra curricular channels) called Behind the Bright Lights. It's all about how the top stars got to where they are and so on and so forth. A documentary type of thing, real interesting.

On another note, I will say that Jenna has her own channel now, and if one were to watch such a channel, that would be the one to watch; but you aint herad that from me. Don't think I've ever seen her perform though.

Tatiana Caldwell said...

A great mind is sexier than a hot body any day. So many people overlook that. But I feel where you are coming from. Even a porn star, who has the mindset to dream big and the ambition to strive towards it, is deserving of some respect.

You're in love with a porn star's mind, to be exact. Nice blog.
