Jenna Jameson looked downright wholesome in person. Even with all the tattoos, the sharply constructed features and pointed makeup, all you can see are her eyeglasses and a green patterned sundress. She even makes talking about porn sound intellectual (which it is, of course.) She's just made her first Hollywood movie, Zombie Strippers, which is way too complex to describe in a single logline.
CraveOnline: What made Zombie Strippers the right choice for your first Hollywood film?
Jenna Jameson: Well, first of all, I am a huge horror movie fan. Always have been. I used to sneak out of my bedroom at night and go turn on HBO. My favorite movie was John Carpenter's The Thing because I loved the fact that it made it so I couldn't sleep. It freaked me out so bad that I couldn't sleep and I loved that adrenaline rush. Obviously, I'm a porn star, so I have a thing with adrenaline, obviously. So yeah, horror movies always kind of made me have that weird yummy sexual feeling.
CraveOnline: Before you even knew it was sexual.
Jenna Jameson: Exactly. That's exactly right. I had no idea it was sexual but it's just this weird, indescribable feeling that I get from horror movies. So when they put this script in front of me, I was like, "This title is brilliant. Zombie Strippers, of course everybody's going to love this movie, especially if you're male." But once I started reading the script, I was like, "Wow, this is so telltale of what my life has been, been fighting against the establishment, being a rebel, never letting anybody tell me who I should and shouldn't be." So I loved the fact that it had so many political undertones. It's not really what you would expect with a campy, dark movie like this, so it was exciting to even be a part of it.
CraveOnline: So how does Zombie Strippers compare to the horror movies you grew up on?
Jenna Jameson: If I watch a horror movie, I don't want to have the whole build-up, like the Alien sort of movie which is great, but I just want it to get to the part where they rip the heads off. Rip the heads off! So when I read the script, I was like, "Okay, if they can pull off this stuff, this is going to be the end all. This is going to be the best horror movie ever made." Once I saw the final, I was like, "Holy sh*t, they pulled it off." The one where she rips the guy's head in half? Dude.

CraveOnline: How important was the political stuff to you?
Jenna Jameson: It was really important because my whole entire career has been based upon kind of taking cover from the establishment. When Bush came into office, I had just started Club Jenna. I was producing my own movies which was a big departure for women in my industry. No women really did what I did, so all of a sudden, I had this glaring spotlight on me from the right wing psychos saying, "You're going to go to jail. This is obscenity." And I'm like, "Well, hold on a second. What do you mean? This is art. Are you kidding me?" So yeah, I really spent a good portion of my career worried about whether or not I was going to go to jail.
