Jenna Jameson
Career
Jameson began performing in 1993 after work as a stripper and glamour model, becoming the industry’s most recognised commercial star. In 2000 she co-founded ClubJenna, an early and highly successful performer-branded production company later sold to Playboy Enterprises. She crossed into mainstream visibility through Howard Stern’s Private Parts, a cameo in an Eminem video, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City voice work and reality television, retiring from performing in 2008.
Signature: She invented the performer-as-media-company model two decades before the creator economy made it normal, and sold it to Playboy.
