Jenna Jameson.
Jenna Jameson, who currently looks like Napoleon Dynamite dressed as Skeletor with tits, has decided to stop ignoring the increasingly obvious crisis of her physical condition and says she’s trying to gain weight.
“I got pretty skinny for a little bit. My lightest was about 92 pounds. I ate today!” Then on her way home, one of Jenna’s friends handed her a corndog, to which she announced, “I love hot dogs on a stick. So fucking sexy!”
(The accompanying picture shows Jenna about to take a bite out of her imaginary corndog. She spent the next half hour trying to puke it back up.)
That puts Jenna, sans implants, under 90lbs.
She sounds like a parent junkie who tells you they’re trying to kick the smack. Just ‘deciding’ to gain more weight almost certainly won’t do it. She can afford to get treatment and I hope she does. Eating disorders and drug addictions kill people.

That little blue pill is more than the favorite punchline of has-been comedians.
Viagra, and the drugs that came after it (see what I did there? Anyone?), hit porn in two ways. The first, and most commented on, is that it ended the dominance of natural talent among male performers. Looking like one of the minor species in the Star Wars universe but commanding a meat-saber which never failed to power-up was no longer enough to stay on top. There will never be another Ron Jeremy.
It leveled the playing-field – women have always been able to fake sexual arousal – now men could too. Finally work could go to men who couldn’t, like Ron Jeremy, time their orgasm to a specific second (“I’ll come in ten seconds!” says Ron and then he does. The man’s a leg-end).
The second effect was an expansion of the audience for porn. As a product that’s not generally consumed by the impotent, Viagra gave a generation of men who had been forcibly retired from sex-for-fun a new lease of life (American readers can mentally insert ‘new lease on life’ in place of the last phrase. Just sounds wrong to me and hell – it’s English and so am I damnit.)
In the coming years (oh yeah, it’s all gold people) the market for the kind of material men over 50 remember being turned on in their youth is bound to explode (or dribble out aided by a few firm shakes). Softer bodies, lots more pubic hair and teasing will inevita-bly make a comeback (RIMSHOT, smile – “…and on with the show.”)
The problem is that contrary to the desire of Pfizer, Viagra can’t be proved to work on women and doesn’t work for thousands of men. Worse still, it’s a drug that creates er-rections without doing anything to your state of mind.
Enter PT-141.
PT-141 is a nasal spray that’ll likely be available as a cure for erectile disfunction (Dickus Redundantus to use the formal latin term) within three years. Unlike current sex drugs PT-141 works on the brain, not the circulatory system, and in trials makes female rats horny enough to mount males (which isn’t normal behavior – for rodents anyway). The trials on rats focused on female rats flirtation, not simply male rats erection’s. An erection doesn’t tell you anything about the owner’s state of mind. Flirtation does. PT-141 seems to make men and women feel and act, sexy.
(NB. I fear a deluge of ‘Viagra works for me’ email from angry women so allow me to clarify. Viagra doesn’t cause arousal in women when compared with a placebo accord-ing to every trial that’s been done. If it did Pfizer would have a pale pink box on the shelves before the first horny chimp they dosed reached orgasm. There’s plenty of an-ecdotal evidence for the efficacy of Viagra for women but – there’s anecdotal evidence for everything so shut up.)
If tests continue to support current findings PT-141 could be as significant as ‘The Pill’. Women (and men) who inhale the colorless, odorless spray (whose capability is unaf-fected by food and alcohol) will be able to switch their lusts on and off. We’ll be able to decide that we’re going to have sex and then create the desire, erection, lubrication etc. on command.
I wonder if they can blend this stuff into aftershave…
For porn this means a couple of things. Firstly female performers might be able to use the drug to make their job less about faking it and more about enjoying it. Though it’s unlikely to bring women into paid sex-work it could extend the careers, and greatly im-prove the general level of happiness, experienced by women who have to struggle through sex with men they dislike, in uncomfortable situations, for directors who think they’re puppeteers.
It could probably be abused too. If horny people are generally more willing to push the envelope (I’ve got my hand up – to about the elbow actually) there’s a chance it’ll be used to encourage situations that normally performers would object to. Of course in those cases what’s happening is a simple assault perpetrated by someone who’d un-doubtedly be a criminal without the aid of advanced pharmacology.
A bigger change is likely to happen in the world of porn consumption. When non-orgasmic women begin to experience the full range of sexual pleasure thanks to ‘Pete’ – I’ve decided that’s PT-141’s ’street name’, use it as you will – there’s bound to be an in-crease in the numbers of women paying for porn (drugs aren’t the only answer but I can only be in so many places at once ladies). Older, post-menopausal, women will begin to invest in sexual entertainment, and couples, finally able to be horny at the same time whenever they want to be, will contribute to a growing audience for quality ‘couples porn’ – which is currently as appealing as a smooth-jazz Tygers of Pan Tang covers band.
So does desire, available via a nozzle, represent sexual utopia or something darker? Would you take Pete and if so, how much would you be prepared to pay?

Tiana Lynn
Tiana Lynn is a contract performer with Elegant Angel.
She’s taken the time to answer a few questions about her experiences in the adult industry for SugarBank readers. I’m flattered. Seriously.
SS: When did you first get involved in the adult industry?
TL: I first got involved when I was 18.
SS: What’s the story behind your porn name?
TL: Well I figured I wasn’t going to answer to anything like Becky or Michelle, so I picked something that sounds similar to my real name.
SS: What was your first experience in the industry like?
Now, when I’m having a bad day or a bad scene, I remember my worst scene sober, beats my best scene on drugs.
TL: I was told I had to do certain things, even if I didn’t enjoy them, or else I wouldn’t make it "big". I worked with guys with enormous cocks, bigger than I’d ever had in my pussy before, and they made me do anal and gangbangs which I’d never done. I was in and out of the doctor’s due to swelling, bleeding and rips. They told me I still had to work anyway.
I left the biz, and decided to gather myself, get my head together. When I came back I said, this is what I do enjoy doing, and this is what I’m prepared to do.
I’ll still do an occasional anal here and there, but only when my ass is hungry for cock.
SS: What do you know now that you wish you had known when you started?
TL: I know now to only shoot what I enjoy. My fans enjoy watching me get off for real, so there’s no faking it. Elegant Angel feel the same. We only shoot people doing what gets them off.
SS: How did your friends and relatives react to knowing you wor
TL: My friends and family know that I have made huge progress in my life, my self-growth and my happiness. They are happy for me, and pray for the best for me.
SS: What’s the best thing about the industry?
TL: There are so many more opportunities than just performing. If you sit back and observe, you can see all the little things that make this multi-billion dollar industry run.
Millions of people watch me to get off, and that gets me off!
SS: What’ the worst thing about the industry?
TL: The risks, but there are risks at any place you work.
It’s hard to differentiate between your friends and people just putting on a show. Some people truly care for your well-being and others just are fake. It’s a tough biz, and people have their guards up high.
SS: Where do you see yourself in five years?
TL: I will definitely be off camera in five years and hopefully I’ll be dating. I like juggling my work life, and my home life, one at a time.
I see myself with my family here at Elegant (Angel), still making jerk-off creations as an editor, but who knows? I’m at an age and a place in my life where the opportunities are limitless.
SS: Who do you think is the most influential/important person in the adult industry and why?
TL: Jenna (Jameson), because she has shown how people can change their life if they stick to their guns and reach for their goals.
We have all lived very similar lives in this industry, but there’s always a chance to turn things around and be a star to someone – including ourselves.
SS: Which piece of work are you most proud of and why?
TL: ‘Cum Rain Cum Shine’ by Elegant Angel, because it took a whole week, it was my first staring role. I put a lot of time, thought, energy, dedication – and cum, into it.
SS: What in your adult career do you wish you hadn’t done?
TL: I don’t regret anything because every experience is a lesson.
I do wish I hadn’t got back into drugs when I got into the industry, I’m very ashamed of my work from back then. Now, when I’m having a bad day or a bad scene, I remember my worst scene sober, beats my best scene on drugs.
SS: What would you tell someone considering a career in the adult business?
TL: I would tell them there is absolutely nothing you have to do. Only do what makes you hot and horny. Do not do it for the money or it will show in your scenes. Do it because you love to fuck and suck, and you love it even more when it’s filmed. Go for it.
SS: What do you think is the biggest myth about the adult industry?
TL: The disease thing, to be honest I think we are some of the cleanest people having sex today.
SS: What’s surprised you most about working in the industry?
TL: How much work it takes, from each person in the production team, to shoot a movie.
SS: When and how do you plan to leave the industry?
TL: I plan to leave within two years, but you can never time these things.
I will leave with a belt of knowledge and skills. I’m learning a lot working full-time behind the scenes.
SS: What are you working on currently?
TL: I work full-time in the office of Elegant Angel, and I’m learning as much as I can about what makes this company what it is today. I want to be able to carry out any movie making related task given to me when I get out of contract and off camera.
On camera I am working on ‘Swallow my Squirt 2′, and soon ‘Supersquirt 2′.
SS: Thanks Tianna. Good luck.
