Listen to this TON-O-BULLSHIT:

We make the 40 minute drive to see Jenna...

We park(seemed like half a mile away), and it was sprinkling rain....they wouldnt let ANYONE in the store before Jenna was in. Jenna was supposed to be there at 7 PM....we got there at 6:32 PM...and stook in the spinkling rain.....this was JENNA we are talkin about! Well the line was alread amost to the BACK of the building...this is Jenna we waitin on...as we got wet and colder by the min, things went DOWN hill.......we learned its $20 to get in the DAMN DOOR, THEN NO POLAROIDS (also no camras or camcorders) and SHE WAS CHARGING $10 FOR A picture of her (signed), with her elbows on a table, with her hands holding her head...on top of that she didn's show up until 7:35PM!!!!!!

WTF IS UP WITH THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the 3rd time I have been to this store(hustler Hollywood, in Monro Ohio), and the first 2 times WERE NOT like this one.....so this IS JENNAS DOING(so I presume)!!!!

heres some food for thought.....

1st time there...we met Tera Patrick...
1) got in FREE
2) FREE AUTOGRAPHS!
3) $10 bucks got ya a polaroid of you and here (In my case me, my g/f and and Tera) and she signed it!

2nd Time there....we met Inari Vaches, Monica Mayhem, and Dee....
1) got in FREE
2) FREE AUTOGRAPHS!
3) since there were 3 ppl it was $15 for a polaroid of them any you (in my case all 5 of us) and it was SIGNED BY ALL 3 PPL!

3rd time there....we ALMOST met Jenna Jameson...
1) $20 BUCKS TO GET IN!
2) $10 FOR A AUTOGRAPH!
3) NO PICTURES OF HER WAT SO EVER!
4) STOOD IN THE RAIN FOR 40+minutes and DIDN'T SEE HER!

What you guys think ?

THink the "stardom" has gone to her head ?

I read about this on RAME. My understanding is that the store hires the performer to show up. Depending on the terms, the performer either gets a big chunk up front or they charge for autographs to cover expenses. By your own admission, the line was long and I doubt the store could've fit everyone inside from listed reports. On top of that, Jenna is, like it or not, a bigger draw than the other very lovely ladies you mentioned. Depending on whom you believe, the store is the most likely one to blame in this case though.

PS: It was advertised as costing $10 admission and $10 per autograph (so I hear). In any case, did you miss her because you didn't want to pay or did she leave early too? Just curious...

Stardom gets to everyones head, but...

I don't care for star status, a human is an animal, all animals are made of the same stuff (technical terminology). So why is one person more valuable then another? I don't understand this.

But I wouldn't have waited in line for that long for an autograph. Been there done that, not worth it...

Sorry to hear of your lousy experience Porn Lord, but it does seem to be expected behaviour on her part. Seems Ms. Jameson thinks the entire porn world revolves around her and those giant fake tits of hers, but I say (and please excuse the pun) screw her and her kind! Jenna's nothing but a has-been anyway and way past her glory days in my honest opinion. I'd rather drool and blow my loads to the gorgeous Monica Sweetheart! Now she is a hot piece of ass that makes Jenna look as if she never even existed...hehe

The only QUEENS I've heard about in porn are the crossdressers, which I know nothing about.

Anyway, as in Hollywood, a lot of emphasis is placed on who gets paid the most money/who makes the most per movie. For every disposable Euro-babe who'll take a handful of rice as payment for a ten picture deal (in which they take triple anal, facials, ATM, or any other gross act required of them), you'll have an American performer that demands $1000+ per BJ, and sets 12 pages of conditions about said BJ.

The economics of it is that the market will ONLY pay what the performer is considered worth receiving based on all the factors involved. In the case of Jenna, her multiple appearances on E!, Howard Stern, various other shows and media outlets, along with her premium rate for dancing at strip clubs, we know that the market will pay her a premium at this time. This is as objective a criterion as you will find to weed out those who are Jenna's "slavering fan boys" as well as those on the opposite end of the spectrum who think "she's a hag, washed up and I'm pissed that others like her more than my flavor of the month" types. For the record, I'm in between-I like her performances and think she's cute but I wouldn't pay her $30 for a single autograph (now if she'd sign EVERYTHING I have with her in it for that much, I'd go for it).

Jenna still has all the publicity from her years at Wicked proping her up, as well as her website, and now Vivid's ton of money. Publicity translates into popularity whether we like it or not. (I'm neutral)

agreed HoustonDon....

I mean I would rent her vids now verses BUY them....but still watch her have sex onscreen :)

I just think she has lost contact with the ppl who MADE her....the fans.


I know quite a few ppl there were unhappy with the same treatment I got :(

Porn-lord, I guess it's a matter of expectations. If the store advertised the appearance as being free, and the conditions similar to other performers you mentioned, then they should've made it up to you. If they didn't mention the fee's (entry and other), then you shouldn't have been charged. I know that I'd make sure the store in question would never receive any of my business again.

I'm curious as to what the rest of you think about performers making autograph appearances. I don't frequent stores much in my area but such appearances, when not tied to a strip club, seem to be fairly rare. I'm not a fan of the clubs but I might try and go to them more when a feature dancer performs in the future. In any case, outside of California video/bookstores, do many performers hold signings across the country on a regular basis? Would it make you more likely to buy their movies if they did?

Well HoustonDon,

I DID buy a DVD for hey to sign, heh it was Briana Loves Jenna, but thats just another vid in my collection...

But to anwer ya question, would it make my buy there DVDs, YES! And NO, they NEVER said ANYTHING about a cover charge for EITHER store....I even listened to Jenna on 2 diffrent radio stations doin promos (WEBN and Channel Z, of couse at diffrent times :p) and NO ONE, not her or Dustin Flynt said ANYTHING about cover :
I do however plan to do some complaining to Jenna and Huster for this....I may be "pissin into the wind" but atleast I can say I DID say something.

I bought Tera Patricks "Island Fever" she signed that, I took a Penthouse she was featured in (Feb 2000) she signed 3 diff pages on it, one was almost the length of the center fold (which was her ;)). Also she signed the polaroid, and they were doin a chrity auction for the 9-11 tragedy, I won a auction of her cloths for 60 bucks, i got her top, shorts, panties, AND a purple "Tera Patrick "G" Spot Vibrator".......She did have other outfits she auctioned off other outfits too.

Agter meeting Tera I wish ALL porn stars could have done this...I mean 100% of the proceeds from the auction went to the 9-11, and HALF of the polaroid proceeds went to the 9-11.....

go here and check it out....HERE

as for Jenna she took some photos too, BUT only for the radio station, no one NOT in the radio station staff, didnt get personal pics...ALSO her pics are from the night before I attempted to see her (the pics are of the Cincinnati Hustler store, I was at the Monro Hustler store)

u can check them, HERE shes in the middle...You'll see it...

as for snowden porn, LOL let her come there and take ya $$....lol thats all she seems to care about anymore...As mentioned before, Tera, Inari, Dee, and Monica mayhem charged NOTHING for autographs...only charged for the polaroids.....

Don't crucify Jenna without knowing who decided on the cover and when.

I do find it pretty obnoxious when covers only apply to men.

There ARE porn queens in this very board: Tina, Tricia, Kimi. But they are queens in the ROYALTY sense: elegant, sophisticated, cool, and deserveful of our respect cause they respect us. So there.

Planet: touche'

While my comments were not global in nature, I see that I could've been more precise. I was one of the first ones here, if not THE first one here to refer to Tricia as The Queen of Evil Angel (as in Royal family). Kimi's more like a princess and Tina is listed as ADT's Mistress but ultimately, Steph is the Queen here with Drew as either her King or consort (depending on how things are ging at any given time).

Steph: well said! How often do I remark to Tina, for example, that she should come to Houston, TX on a promotional tour, yet she asks who'll pay for it? I would think that Pandora might want to reach out to some of the larger communities to expand their consumer base-so financing Tina's trip makes sense for them. I know Jill Kelly's company was sending stars out on the road as were a few others too. Ultimately, someone has to pay the expenses though and stores pass those costs along to us one way or another...

Queen of the Evil Empire would be more precise.
No matter how Power Ranger-ish it may sound.

No Tricia cannot be the Queen of the Evil Empire. The head of an Empire is an Empress, so how does Empress of the Evil Empire sound.

Tricia, Empress of the Evil Empire.

I know that this is a mouthful, but Tricia deserves it.

I'm going to have to revise my standard question...
