Jenna Jameson, Queen of Porn

Jenna Jameson

There’s no question that Jenna Jameson has been going through a bit of a rough patch lately.

Regardless of her various legal troubles and the fact that she’s been retired for six years,Jenna Jameson is still the Queen of Porn (sort of, I guess…by default). And today she’s turning the ripe young age of 39 so we have no choice but to name Jenna Jameson the Babe of the Day.

Remember that old Sex.com Blog post about the next Jenna Jameson? We listed 10 hot, new pornstars that could achieve the same level of stardom that Jenna Jameson was able to.

But really, given the nature of the adult industry nowadays I doubt that any pornstar no matter how hot will achieve the same level of stardom as Jenna Jameson. In a time when porn starlets were making no more than $1,200 per scene, Jenna Jameson was raking in the cash at $60,000 for one-and-a-half days of work. Plus $8,000 a night for appearance fees, tips and merchandise sales.

The key to Jenna Jameson‘s popularity was all marketing. It wasn’t her boobs, blonde hair, or blowjob skills, it was marketing. Aside from the marketing studios would have done, she marketed herself. She really was the first pornstar to establish themselves as a brand rather than just a performer.

In this crazy, fucked-up social media world that we live in today, to be relevant you need to be constantly marketing yourself. If you even want to hang with the big dogs you need to be your brand. Jenna Jameson was able to do this when the internet was just a punchline for shortsighted people.

Basically, there will never be another Jenna Jameson because she made the game what it is today.

Anyways, Babe of the Day: Jenna Jameson.
