Porn Queen Jenna Jameson Stands Up for Israel

Image by Instagram

By Maia Efrem October 20, 2015

Jenna Jameson has chutzpah and she’s not afraid to use it.

The bombshell actress is perhaps the most famous adult film star of the millennial generation and has been outspoken and unabashed in her conservative beliefs, criticism of the Obama administration and support of Israel. Amid the past month’s rising violence in the region, Jameson, 41, has taken to voice her staunch backing of Israel and the Israeli people.

Undeterred by critics, Jameson’s flurry of Tweets have been so steadfast that Ynetnews described her as “at the forefront of hasbara.”

Jameson, who has shared her journey of conversion with her fans, is engaged to 41-year-old Lior Bitton, a Herzliya native who works in the diamond business in Los Angeles. Jameson is learning Hebrew, keeps kosher and regularly shares snaps of her traditionally Jewish and Israeli concoctions. Jameson even has plans to start a YouTube channel to showcase her kosher recipes.
