Jenna Jameson walked the runway for New York designer Heatherette yesterday, and looked like death on a stick. I know she’s blamed her scary weight loss on her diagnosis of malignant melanoma, but that was back in November of 2004 – so nearly three years ago. She had the misshapen mole removed the following month, and says she’s been “100 percent cancer free” since then. So that really doesn’t explain why she looks as skeletal as ever. She seemed to be looking a little healthier lately – less orange tan (after a skin cancer diagnosis, you’d hope even a porn star could at least stay away from the tanning machine) – took out her fake boobs, seemed to have put a little weight back on her emaciated frame. But it seems the porn star has gotten a little skeletal again, considering how he looked on the runway.
“Jenna Jameson is making a transition from the seedy world of porn into the Hollywood celebrity set and has been doing the rounds at New York Fashion Week. She recently stole the show when she walked the red carpet at the Heatherette show looking like a shadow of her former self.
The actress has been battling rumours she is struggling with anorexia for the last few months but she has dismissed those reports and blamed her recent bitter divorce. The Queen of Porn has said it upsets her when fans tell her to “eat a burger” or that they prefer the “old Jenna.” Jenna had posted this message on her MySpace page in response to the accusations a couple of months ago but her situation has not improved and she has gone on to lose even more weight.

When Jenna first started losing too much weight, she blamed the stress of the skin cancer diagnosis (which also caused her to have a miscarriage). That’s totally understandable, but as those issues faded into the background, she didn’t look any healthier, and has recently been blaming the stress of her (albeit very acrimonious) divorce.
“I feel like I need to address the weight rumors that have been swirling for a few months now. This saddens me… only because, everyone that is judging me… has absolutely NO idea what is happening in my life. People are hateful and accuse me of being a drug addict, or an anorexic.
Does anyone seem to remember the fact that I am going through a nasty divorce? It has been weighing heavily on me. I worked extremely hard for years to secure my success, and i have been forced to fight for everything I busted my ass for. This has definitely affected my weight. It really hurts that my fans (and everyone else) have taken it upon themselves to be so horrible, screaming eat a burger! or we want the old Jenna back! I’m sure everyone out there has gone through tough times, and this is when I need support.
“I wish I could enlighten everyone with what is exactly going on in my divorce and business, but I can’t because of legal proceedings. I really hope everyone understands and remembers I am human, and I really need friends and the love and support right now. “Soon the divorce will be settled and I am hoping to come out unscathed, but my x is doing his best to make it hard. Thanks for all of your support, and remember I love you!

I know a lot of people don’t eat when they’re stressed, but when you have chronic stress and don’t eat as a result, that is a real problem. I’m not sure if it’s anorexia by definition, but she sure seems beyond the point of having lost “stress weight.” Anorexia is a disease that – for many sufferers – is about control. When you can’t control all the other stressful things in your life, you can control how little you eat. It seems logical that Jenna could be having those issues right now. Since she spent so many years in such a body-focused industry, it makes sense that she could try to control that one area of her life right now, and take it too far. She doesn’t look quite as cartoonish as she did for a while – though her boobs still don’t look natural to me, even though she claimed to have had her implants removed. It’ll be interesting to see what happens when her divorce is over – if she’ll magically put on some weight, or if she’ll come up with a new excuse.
