Jenna's Bio

Born April 9, 1974, she danced ballet as a child and was a self-described nerd in high school. And, while she was a cheerleader, she didn't have a date to the prom. But by her senior year in high school, she had blossomed into a tall, blonde, voluptuous and sultry stunner with an innocent look. She had no trouble getting jobs as a model and topless dancer on the Vegas strip. She quickly moved on to the world-famous Crazy Horse II and began stripping.

Jenna soon had offers to do adult movies. She consulted with her father, who encouraged her to follow her conscience, but added, "You know, Jenna, this is a big step. You can't erase this." She decided to go ahead with it, and at age 19, began making adult films. She was an instant success and was voted the "Best New Starlet" by AVN, XRCO and FOXE - the only actress ever to win the award from all three groups in the same year.

The magazine Revolver says (March 2002), "Jenna is well on her way to joining the Hootchie Hall of Fame," but it then makes the larger point that "Jameson has managed to crossover into the mainstream." Adds Swung Magazine: "Don't worry, Jenna will still be Jenna Jameson, Queen of the Adult World, even if she's wearing more hats than usual." Jenna has helped bring Adult into mainstream entertainment and has successfully become an icon in both industries.
