The main thing blogging has taught me is that the vast majority of people don't give as much as a gnat's dump about history. Thousands of words a week I publish, most of which comes and goes without being seen, let alone commented on - nothing! Longtime readers will recall that I used to be bitter about this, but I haven't been since I learned an even more important lesson...What people really care about is sex. Which is why the mere mention of a porn star's name gives my traffic a noticeable bump***; not just major porn stars like our birthday gal Jenna Jameson here, either, but even obscure gay porn stars who died twenty years ago.
Jameson, of course, has proven to be one of the adult film industry's highest profile ambassadors as porn has made its inexorable trek from dirty little secret to the mainstream over the past couple of decades. Best known for her girl-on-girl work - which, like everything else I write about on here, I extensively researched - Jameson was also one of the first porn stars to embrace the Internet, which she did with her now-ex-husband Jay Grdina (better known by his nom de porn Justin Sterling).
When Jameson really went mainstream, though, was upon the publication of her memoirs, How to Make Love Like a Porn Star: A Cautionary Tale in August 2004; that led to a hosting gig on Playboy TV's Jenna's American Sex Star in November 2005. For obvious reasons, she remains tabloid fodder to this day...
