9:01 pm
to larry king now today's special guest is jenna jamison on to burn or new york times best selling author she's the world's most famous crossover of golden to damon star she has retired from the adult film industry is now an erotic romance author her debut novel is titled sugar what made you turn to writing well i wrote might book how to make love like a porn star which is my autobiography it was a big so it was a huge seller it was on the new york times bestsellers list like you said and i didn't really expect it it was it was kind of shocking to me because it was just me telling my truths and you know it was relatable by women so i my fan base with women grow so that i think that's what kind of helped me crossover with my any mouth and one novel well you know i read the whole shades of grey trilogy. and i sign opening because to me it was. i'm. a pro at sexuality you know it's what i do best so i thought who better than to write you
9:02 pm
know i think that's a great it this is an erotic book it is it with a good story line you got a good plot i mean you could take so much eroticism well not a plot i take a lot of my. you are but your whatever's happening with me or what has happened to me and i apply it and you know so there's a lot of fun things that have happened to me in the book you mention the building to women are isn't of basic appeal to men well you would think so you would think so but you would be surprised i would say at least fifty to sixty percent of my followers on twitter or instagram are women who have famous men both well i'm sure don't you phony and no but i was like who follows oh i am far len who had me on a family guy and love him was the best half day but there's so many of them like i mean bill o'reilly hill i famously debated on his show i think he thinks
9:03 pm
pretty large of me you never proved over me well you know i like you know that it's to call me the prude of porn if i am a conservative you know i would be little bit sensor yes i am i'm a paradox or you're the first adult film star featured on the on a billboard in times square the first go film star immortalized at madame tussaud i got my thing that will move us together they should go form a company club jenna was sold to playboy for you says an extreme amount of money you're a major best seller in books you love the industry. are you comfortable now miss do you miss porn movies i think that's the golden question it's once you do it and you feel the fame and you feel because i was the very best at what i did and you know when you remove yourself from something like that it's kind of hard to just stop and i did i mean i just stopped and it's been about eight years and i you know i
9:04 pm
got into the industry at the perfect time i built a huge huge company at the perfect time and i got out at the perfect time so i don't think i'd ever go back because in the industry in trouble it's in trouble i knew it was going down quickly with all the piracy problems you can't you can't police it it's impossible you know you spend all your money in lawyer fees. oh about this testing for each other the you know some it positive right from what i hear you know i don't keep up to date with a lot that's going on in the adult industry anymore but you know i can speak on the fact that when i was in the adult industry i prided myself on allowing the girls that worked for my company to make the choice to wear condoms and i think that nowadays it became not a big deal they didn't realize that how important safe sex is and now that there
9:05 pm
is a problem everybody's panicking running and panicking so what about the as oh i have a warning about condoms from what i know i think that they do and i started going to ruin it i will not watch i was back at one hundred percent i would be below watch because they were a condom and still so that here's the problem is people no matter if there's a bar for condoms there's always going to be the black market of people not doing it and all the viewers want to watch something bad and dirty and sexy you know what i mean when you know how stupid not to use a condom absolutely asia would be slim hundred percent what makes a great point. i think brains come up i really because it's it's about being able to act because i mean nobody is sexy twenty four hours a day but i pride myself on being
9:06 pm
a fantastic actress you have to be you know if you have therefore you're telling me you didn't enjoy it but much. if i don't break it down a woman i have a grudge you're going to see what you did of course of course well when you're in a room full of thirty people with cameras and booze and lights and you know it's hard to focus enough why do you think you're beautiful you've always been due for your beautiful kid right appreciate you popular in high school i wasn't i was not i think but i you know i really hate that when pretty girls say oh i was such an ugly duckling like i heard jessica alba say about one time and i was just like there is no possible way you were ever ugly ever you're gorgeous you're born gorgeous but i was always kind of an awkward studious child would you grow up in las vegas i think that's partially why i am such
9:07 pm
a sinner's that like you grew up there. i grew up wanting to be twenty one. that's i that was always my goal i just wanted to be grown up you know and i was stripping at the crazy horse when i was seventeen you know you just grow up fast in las vegas. you have early show crew experience and you know i would like to tell you a really fantastic story that yes i was but you know i lost my virginity at fifteen which maybe for some people out there that's really young but nowadays i hear about like these really really young kids going after it and it's frightening because i'm a mom what do you make of those the group book i was actually really excited by the shades of grey trilogy because it is allowing women to kind of embrace their sexuality and i am all for that i think women should have all the same. like
9:08 pm
gusto sexually as land in a movie would make one to hope it's not ruined it's very violent isn't well if it i haven't read it glorify as s. and m. which i i think all women should experience one time or another in that line you enjoy well i mean one thing o'brien i'm all i was your first experience of breaking into this business well wow i started with penthouse. then i saw then i went to hustler i went to i mean i started doing the magazine circuit and then i was approached posing nude yeah i always wanted to be a show girl in las vegas because my mother was a lead dancer at the follies pleasure and in las vegas and i wanted to be just like her but you know ended up stripping. and of course father how did you get into the the adult business it's kind of a snowball effect you know once you start doing magazines you start getting
9:09 pm
approached by a lot of the adult producers so i saw an opening that you know there this is a totally male industry and i thought you know these appease man that don't really know what sexy so i thought if i there isn't i'm going to go in there and just crush people if you're going to star immediately i did and it was our song purchases right yeah yeah i mean we read a star on the mother of d.v.d. sales and you know i was drivers porn movie my first porn was up and comers ten and eleven oh my god so embarrassing but yeah. kind of really very young what was the to the first the first time you had to have sex being photographed always of like four despite your script despite all the rest fifty year old you lost your weight but still now there's cameras dating people around
9:10 pm
you got to have sex with a guy it was horrifying it was completely horrifying and i don't think it was really because i was having sex on camera i think it was because he sweated on me. for it. but i know i think i was i really prepared myself for him but good at it right away well i was always a very sexual person so i felt open with it i don't know why and i thought the feel of. my father always supported me with everything that i did but i think that when i came to him and said dad you know i've decided to become a porn star he looked like he saw ghost he was scared. so yeah i mean it was it was you had a really clear head i was very close with my father my father was incredible and there was no way yes i had lost him two years ago where if you became
9:11 pm
a born star how do you feel what my father was incredibly proud of me it was yeah that's that's the shocking thing people don't really realize he was on howard stern with me and he became his own little celebrity and you know he would take didn't his friends killed him or he would have to deal with that of course people saying you know i watched all your daughter's movies she helped me get through college she helped me get my ph d. you know all these things but you know my dad always looked at me like he would say things to me like. i get emotional i'm sorry. you know one word famous person you're like you're like cher or madonna you know and i would always like dad stop it that's not true you know all i want to do is like make an impact and change things for the industry to live to a ripe old age my dad lived to seventy and saul's isn't enough cancer it was a heart attack it was
9:12 pm
a heart attack and he was just so healthy and your brothers and sisters i have a brother but we were close and you know my my dad's passing so it's kind of changed things really yeah as you grow apart yeah she won't keep in touch with them now i hope he's watching maybe he'll reconnect why is the arctic fiction now so in. well you know with my book how to make love like a porn star it kind of. it right been things i think for women it made it ok now with shades of gray and now my book sugar women feel comfortable like being on the airplane reading it like excepted but it's if you read it it is written. i mean you can actually get completely turned on by these books i mean i was so engrossed in them my x. would look at me like jenna hello what about me i'm like i'm busy i'm busy he's
9:13 pm
handcuffing her right now you got turned on by reading it yeah. i think that in the written word is what i mean here and of course in your book you know there's a to be much more than that tape duct tape. what are your boys going to think you think they're for right yes my boys are four and a half and you know i think when i when they're sixteen and that's that's a fight mean we're going to stress though that this was you know the kids in school were sixteen would be twelve all i heard about your mother i know right it's i mean when i when i decided to get pregnant this is something that i thought about concerns like consistently what you know i don't like it when will this and and i think that it's important for me just to be honest with them and tell them that you know this is what your mom did but once i decided to have you you were the most important thing in my life and i quit next-gen it takes on the naysayers what does
9:14 pm
she say to those who are opposed the whole concept was born right up to this. technology innovation all the developments around russia we've got the future covered. i've got a quote for you. it's pretty tough. stay with substory. but if this guy like you would smear that guy stead of working for the people most issues in the mainstream media are working for each other driver i'm stationed in spite. of the dead rather let alone.
9:15 pm
9:16 pm
you're. this is a danger grow up with this well these are the ones that are my biggest viewers usually that's what i've learned over the years they're the ones that are you know behind their keyboards watching so you know i believe that you know at a certain point in time in our generation we're getting we're going to get to the point where everybody realizes that sexuality is a natural thing sex is a natural thing and no matter what they say no matter what they do we it'll always be there when you were appointed or before you were married didn't you intimidate you guys freely did you date that's always been my problem i intimidate i'm kind of a very forward girl and that's why date alpha males don't intimidate me but. the lives of me oh. i didn't think i could intimidate you know you would be there
9:17 pm
and your husband is what he's a fighter i got my axes if he is a u.f.c. fighter she didn't intimidate him no well maybe a little bit he was scared when i first talked to him he was nervous but it's not odd did you go out on dates with a guy called you up and say let's go out saturday night to dinner no no i'm always the one that initiated things did you date any of your partners from film. yes that's something that i think that it's inevitable because for a female sex is it's emotional it's hard to not connect with someone so yeah i did i and for the greater part of my whole career i worked only with my husband i had quit doing men in my movies and he was like we are into our company together and he was like well you know in order to make money you have
9:18 pm
to be doing boy girl what we call boy girl and so he decided to start doing movies with me you do girl girl two yes he was really down for that he was yeah. did you enjoy that too you know at the time in my life i really loved it you know i was very experimental and i love you know i was i have been in female relationships before i think love is not you know just placed upon a person's sex gloria steinem friend of mine who is one of the founders of feminism said porn means female slavery that sad i think she's she's mistaken and i have great respect for her i love what she's done for her for all of us women but but to me being in porn meant taking hold of my sexuality not being held down not allowing anybody to
9:19 pm
tell me what i can and can't do with my body. and the film to do she would yeah she made herself as a victim yeah. you know but i don't buy i don't buy it i think the traci lords also did the same thing it's an easy way out it's to gain acceptance and i think that it's braver to be. be truthful that i love my sexuality i love of having sex and there's nothing wrong with the act in public or as you bother you but you know when i first moved to hollywood it was out of control. i would have packs of them just following me because you know i was dating i was running around with paris hilton and i was acting like a heathen and so i was you know i lived actually next door to the car dash in at the time and this was prior to them starting their show but they were still on
9:20 pm
the i'm being famous so imagine the car dash and the jamesons next starting each other it was it was chaos your husband is tito ortiz are you do or should. we were never married but you know we were together for a very long time i was called in my husband is that. not a nice break up. yeah i would say that that we've had our issues is that's for sure but i think that it's important for us to you know be gentle with each other you know it's watch him fight i would never allow my kids to watch him fight no way so they will not watch him fight they will not watch your film and absolutely no do they care about both right right right you know i'm just i'm going to prepare them i'm going to prepare them you know and strengthen them it's important that you get kids are raised understanding the reality of life not
9:21 pm
not not you know umbrella by their parents i want my kids to be tough because you're secure odeon your enjoyment of it would you have been in the old days cold easy. i am probably the most difficult one when you have ever met your. people that's i think that you took on a gentleman would presume it's easy of course of the forest i mean what i did on film was all about building an industry building a company being on the fortune five hundred list making a huge amount of money and you know it wasn't about that you know people think that i wake up and have orgies but that's not how my life is i'm sorry to bust everybody's bubble but it's not i'm actually a very monogamous girl. it sounds to me but is it now your idea of the wow now that europe single again are you dating again. yeah i'm open to dating i
9:22 pm
have you found anyone i have been so they haven't yet what do you look for in a man. a lot of them that he fights before the job saw that well i don't know about all that i don't want and i don't want that anymore i want some but i think i'm going to change up my style i want i want and i'm kind of turned on got by guys with beards doesn't have the latest thing of yeah i'm like kind of a whole balance that i had so i. could really you know it seems i would tickle you though you have what's the number one question about sex that women ask you what it women want to know do you want to know the truth yeah how to give a great blow job really. i mean when you would be surprised when men are so much dirtier than men women are dirty a good men they are the conversations i have with my girlfriends are so much crazier than what men talk about when you approach dating know how do men come to do it i scare the hell out of men i know it to i think that they think that because
9:23 pm
i've done what i done in the past as as being a porn star that i expect you know that i'm a size queen or you know you have to go for hours and you know i'm used to other point male porn stars and that's totally untrue like i just i just want someone to love me. i don't think you'll have a problem again he lives in question the maggie king on twitter wants to know are you done with the adult industry are you totally away from it i am i'm completely done even though you know releasing sugar is somewhat we're utilizing on the porn industry but yeah i can't see myself ever doing porn again i mean i'm almost forty i got a hang up my style at a felicia terry on facebook asked do you believe in god yes i am i i'm varilux and you can see you can see these overrule first absolutely if you break
9:24 pm
are the rules of the bible well i i think that. we've come a long way religiously i don't think that you have to take the bible literally i think that you know having faith and i love being able to teach my children. what it means to just believe and have the strength of faith you know at the church i mean i used to go to church all the time and my my ex used to tell me oh my gosh the roof is going to burn and fallen on you know but you know i mean i have always been extremely catholic my father was catholic and he brought me up that way i know it sounds odd but well he's a savior the catholic girl loose they go nuts you know on twitter if you were given another life would you opt for the same profession you know i have no regrets i
9:25 pm
love what i've done i love when i walk down the street and you know groups of teenage girls eighteen nineteen year old girls are like jenna you're my hero like how to make love like a porn star is like the bible to us will you please a lot of people and you think about it you brought enjoyment to many people in many places couples want you to give the people who are to you you've turned on america and that's exactly what i wanted to do i love it when when couples say we conceived our first child to want to hear movies and they've named their kids after me jenna yes sure there's going to be a hit we play a little game because if you only knew the other celebrity crush is there a guy you want to you could have a or any person do you want to be with for a night charlie stern show that those are all these are all would be your number one she's gorgeous the first person you ever kissed. oh this little boy in the park
9:26 pm
i think i was eleven and he put his tongue in my mouth and it freaked me out so bad i was like spitting yeah member's name i think his name is jake in vegas in vegas so he's hardly that he probably brags about it all but. how would you define love. my definition of love is is trust and being able to lean on that person and and know that they accept you for all your faults when you monogamous in your marriage yes absolutely most people or about money would keep you up at night i think that would be worry about if you're a business woman or a businessman. money always keeps you up at night no matter how successful you are i'm always thinking of new schemes and what to you know how to how to change things how to make money how did you know where's that where's the next guy me wanting money money money yes yes if you could change one thing about yourself
