Who Is Jenna Jameson? Porn Star Blasts Jaxton Wheeler For Online Bullying

Adult movie legend Jenna Jameson hit out at pansexual porn star Jaxton Wheeler, accusing him of bullying porn actress August Ames before her apparent suicide Dec. 5 in Camarillo, California.

“You told my friend August to swallow a cyanide pill. You are directly responsible for her death. I will not rest until you are deleted from social media altogether,” Jameson wrote on Twitter.

Jameson is an American entrepreneur, webcam model, and former adult film actress, who has been called the world's most famous adult entertainment performer and dubbed "The Queen of Porn."

She was in the news recently for voicing her opinion on the "mob mentality" of online bullying in the wake of Ames' death.

Wheeler had earlier blasted Ames on Twitter for expressing her desire of not working with actors who had shot gay porn over safety concerns.

In a tweet directed at Ames, Wheeler wrote, “The world is awaiting your apology, or for you to swallow a cyanide pill. Either or, we’ll take it.”

Cautioning her replacement performer against doing a shoot involving a gay porn actor, Ames wrote on Twitter, “Whichever (lady) performer is replacing me tomorrow for @EroticaXNews, you’re shooting with a guy who has shot gay porn, just to let cha know. BS is all I can say is do agents really not care about who they’re representing? #ladirect I do my homework for my body.”

However, many Twitter users saw the tweet as being "homophobic," a charge vehemently denied by Ames.

“NOT homophobic,” she responded. “Most girls don’t shoot with guys who have shot gay porn, for safety. That’s just how it is with me. I’m not putting my body at risk. I don’t know what they do in their private lives. How am I homophobic if I myself am attracted to women? Not wanting to have sex with gay men is not homophobic; they don’t want to have sex with me either.”

Meanwhile, Wheeler defended himself, rubbishing all claims that he had a role in Ames’ death.

“The idea that I played any role in her decision is erroneous, as is the idea I demanded her death. All adult professionals have the same screening and testing protocols. As a performer, she knew that, but he put it out there to her half-million Twitter followers who didn’t. Now they believed it. It struck a huge nerve,” he said.

“I acknowledge that I responded with emotions and an unfortunate choice of words. None of my aggression was directed at August nor her ability to consent to who she decides to work with. My issue was with the misinformation that exists within the adult industry on crossover talent. I go through the same rigorous, regular testing all talent does,” he added, Daily Star reported.

Born Mercedes Grabovski in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, Ames was a rising Canadian-American porn star who had appeared in over 290 movies. She was even nominated for several Adult Video News (AVN) awards throughout her career. She was married to Kevin Moore, an adult movie producer.

In a statement following Ames’ death, Moore said: “She was the kindest person I ever knew and she meant the world to me. Please leave this as a private family matter in this difficult time.”
