14 DAY TRIAL // This season of UK’s Celebrity Big Brother, which pits US stars against British ones, kicked off last night. Among the celebrities flown in from the States is also retired adult star, glamor model, author and businesswoman Jenna Jameson.
Jameson is famous worldwide, so she’s used to getting attention for her body. What she won’t stand for, though, is being attacked over her weight, whether she’s deemed too thin or too heavy.
Jenna Jameson has gained weight and it’s nobody’s business
As you can see in the photo attached, but also in the intro video available below, Jenna is considerably heavier than she was on her last public appearance in September 2014. In fact, she’s at her heaviest right now, but she carries the extra weight with confidence and pride.
The video below is the one she made to introduce herself to BB audiences. Last night, she entered the BB House, but not before walking the red carpet, where she posed for pictures and spoke about her “gameplan” for the show.
Shortly afterwards, Twitter was riddled with comments about how much weight she’d gained and how “fat” she was, at least compared to her previous, very slender figure.
She’s yet to say anything on the topic on social media (she’s been tweeting mostly about life inside the House, to get votes), but a post from one week ago makes it very clear where she stands on bullies: she will have none of their trash-talking, because her weight is not their problem.
“Posting this to all you fat shamers... Yes, I gained weight, reasons that are personal,” she wrote. “But attacking someone over their weight is really petty, I pride myself in being a well rounded human being... Thick or thin.”
Concern trolling and fat-shaming are just as bad
In the same post, Jameson recalls how much heat she got about 8 years ago, when her weight had plummeted to 90 pounds (40.8 kg) and she’d often be concern-trolled by strangers and the media. Or how they would urge her to eat a sandwich, which is actually common practice with celebrities who suddenly lose a lot of weight.
The point that she’s making is that shaming someone publicly for being too thin or too heavy is just as bad. Moreover, it doesn’t say anything about the person who’s being shamed, but rather reveals the true nature of those doing the shaming.
“It's easy for me to lose weight, is it as easy for you few haters that attack me online to realize your nasty evil ways?” Jameson asks.

Thick or thin. I remember when I was 90 lbs about 8 years ago bs I went through major attacks from everyone (media, friends, social media) and it felt the same as it feels being called fat or frumpy.
