Jenna Jameson

She's a drug addict.

I thought Jenna had it together. I guess that porn life got to her too even though she made a ton of money off of it. She always seemed together when she was doing it. Now she is trainwreck. I guess the lack of attention after the cameras stopped rolling got to her.

She thought she could just turn it off when she had children. I guess it wasn't as easy as she thought. I can only imagine the struggle within her head.
 
Really awful. Poor woman and her poor children.

Generally speaking, if you have that kind of career, it's because someone did something horrible to you when you were a child. Now that she's left to her own devices, no attention/validation, less money, etc., it must be really hard to face up to all the trauma that led up to this. I hope she gets the help she needs.
 
Unfortunately this is the reality for many pornstars. The industry can be extremely damaging and a lot of women (and men) come out of it with a very skewed self esteem and addiction issues.

I've always thought the industry needs to be much tougher regulated when it comes to assessing whether people are mentally well enough to start in the first place and then look after them during and after.

Having sex with multiple people with no real connection, having to perform certain acts that you don't necessarily feel comfortable with (even if consented) and being seen as a commodity for a long time will mess a person up.

There was a brilliant article somewhere written by retired pornstars talking about how damaging the industry can be mentally. I'm going to see if I can find it now actually.

They will never regulate, they will just use whoever is eager for money. A lot of people need quick cash to take care of themselves, sometimes their families, and jump at the chance for what making porn offers. Alot of people will say it doesn't pay off in the long run, but when you have nothing, that fast cash is all you think about.

I think her addiction to plastic surgery helped her addiction.

This!
I had high hopes she would be that one breakout porn girl that
kept it together (for the most part).
She seemed like she was going in the right direction..
got married, got the hell out of Los Angeles, had kids etc..
now she's a mess.
What a shame.
:sad:
If she really loved her boys, she'd get help.
 
I met her in a bar some 2 weeks ago in NYC.. She was in for the porn convention (DH and I had no clue it was going on in NYC)
She was a hot mess. It was really very sad. She was clearly strung out on something.. Had trouble standing, her eyes were just glazed over.. You could tell with out a doubt it was much more than just booze.
Met Ron Jeremy as well.. He was a doll! Very friendly and personable. We actually talked to him for a while...
Never know who you are going to run into in NYC!!

Ha!
I've met Ron Jeremy a few times..he's a sweetheart.
I've seen him around town and he came into where I used to work many years ago. My boss
told him he was a fan, and Ron came back the next day
and gave him a video..it was really sweet of him.

Jenna looks much better with weight on her, she was
had gotten too thin for awhile after she had the kids..
