Rolling Stone magazine captured the essence of Jenna Jameson when it said she is "the woman who put the star in porn star." AVN, the adult industry’s leading trade journal, concluded that Jenna is the top female adult star of all time (January 2002 issue).

Jenna Jameson's mainstream movie work includes feature roles in Howard Stern's film hit, Private Parts, the indie horror film, Samhain, Comedy Central's first feature film, Porn 'n Chicken, and a recurring role in the NBC drama, Mr. Sterling.

The latter has consistently ranks her as one of the 100 most beautiful and sexy women in the world.

Born in Las Vegas, Jenna studied ballet as a child. She was a self-described nerd in high school and didn’t have a date to her high school prom. But by her late teens she had blossomed into a voluptuous and sultry stunner with an innocent look. She began getting jobs as a model and topless dancer on the Vegas strip. Before long she was dancing at the world-famous Crazy Horse II, where Penthouse and Hustler discovered her. Since then, she has won virtually every honor the adult industry bestows.

Jenna announced her retirement from performing on stage at the 2008 AVN Awards. Her recent mainstream acting credits include a starring role opposite Robert Englund in the Sony Pictures release Zombie Strippers.
