LAS VEGAS- .Jenna Jameson, the adult film superstar and pop culture icon, today was immortalized in wax at Madame Tussauds Las Vegas.

Ms. Jameson, a Las Vegas native, unveiled her life-sized wax figure during a special ceremony at Madame Tussauds on the Las Vegas Strip. The partially nude, interactive figure portrays Ms. Jameson kneeling on a bearskin rug and displays all of her well-known tattoos. She also wears her original “Jenna” black leather belt with her name in rhinestones.

“This is an awesome honor,” Ms. Jameson said after the unveiling, “especially since I’m making history as the first personality from the adult world to have an attraction at Madame Tussauds and it is happening in Las Vegas, my hometown.”

Like all Madame Tussauds interactive figures, visitors can pose for photographs with Ms. Jameson and when you tickle her tattoo on her right ankle, she whispers a personal message. Her attraction is displayed next to the wax attraction of Playboy Publishing founder Hugh Hefner, with whom she shares the same birth date, April 9. Ms. Jameson’s company, ClubJenna, Inc., was recently acquired by Playboy Enterprises. She is the first adult film star to be immortalized by Madame Tussauds in its more than 200-year history. “The adult entertainment business has become a multi-billion dollar industry. Jenna is the most famous adult film star in the world and is widely recognized for taking the adult genre into the mainstream media. It is that fame we are honoring today,” said Adrian Jones, general manager of Madame Tussauds Las Vegas. Madame Tussauds is an international wax attraction that offers the public the unique opportunity to “interact” with famous people. Madame Tussauds operates museums in London, Amsterdam, Hong Kong, Shanghai, New York and at The Venetian Hotel on “The Strip” in Las Vegas, NV. Madame Tussauds Las Vegas is open seven days a week.
