Brooklyn, NY and Los Angeles, CA– BurningAngel (www.burningangel.com) founder and “Queen of Alt Porn,” Joanna Angel is pleased to announce that one of the most incredible Jewish Males in adult cinema, James Deen, has been recognized by Heeb Magazine as one of the 100 most important Jews in the world today.

From the Heeb 100 page: James Deen has starred in more than 2,000 adult films over the last five years. And with impressive awards like male performer of the year at the 2009 AVN Awards (he was the youngest male ever to win that prize) to his (porn) name, it’s safe to say that Deen and his 10-inch penis aren’t just dicking around.

“I’m pretty shy, but I do want to thank Heeb for this merit,” says Deen.

“I was inducted into the Heeb 100 in 2005- and now James in 2009,” says Joanna Angel. “I think it’s kind of cute- and it’s very evident that Heeb has very good taste in Jewish porn stars.”

Deen joins actor Adam Busch, Alexander Gould, Gal Gadot, Paulo Costanzo, Rachel Grady, Robert Siegel, Yoav Shamir, Rodney Rothman, and Ry Russo Young in the film and television category of the Heeb 100. Those named, for the most, are the real names of fellow Jews to be chosen.

Heeb magazine was brewed in Brooklyn in 2001 as a take-no-prisoners zine for the plugged-in and preached-out. Covering arts, culture and politics in a voice all its own, Heeb has become a multi-media magnet to the young, urban and influential.
