Jenna Jameson, porn queen and ‘devout Catholic’

[additional-authors]
August 26, 2008

Jenna Jameson, the Queen of Porn (I’m not even going to list the AVN awards she’s won), may be retired from “performing” but she still makes a lot of money from the adult business, particularly through her company ClubJenna. You’d be surprised, then, to learn that Jameson considers herself a “devout Catholic”—whatever that means.

From an Us Magazine exclusive—yawn—reporting that Jameson is pregnant with boyfriend Tito Ortiz’s child:

“I think I’m gonna stay unmarried and just go for the babies!” she told Us. “I’m following in Angelina’s footsteps!”

The pregnancy news is joyful for Jameson.

She previously told Us she discovered she was two months pregnant in November 2004 after being diagnosed with malignant melanoma. A day later, she miscarried due to the stress of cancer.

But the devout Catholic — who has tried in vitro — told Us, “It was all in God’s plan.”

I’m speechless, and more dumbstruck by the shallow reporting of Us, which I hold in such high regard, then by Jameson’s apparently contradictory beliefs and behavior. As Terry at GetReligion quipped: “This is the complete story, I am afraid — with no additional commentary, other than a silent scream of, ‘WWWWHHHHAAAAT?????’”
