ClubJenna, Inc. is a multi-media adult entertainment company based in Scottsdale, Arizona. It was founded in 2000 by adult film actress Jenna Jameson, and Jay Grdina, who performed as an adult film actor under the name Justin Sterling and today is president of ClubJenna, Inc. Initially a single website, the business expanded into managing similar websites of other stars and began producing pornographic films in 2000. The first such film, Briana Loves Jenna (with Briana Banks), was named at the 2003 AVN Awards as the best-selling and best-renting pornographic title for 2002. Its assets include a film production business, a network of pay web sites, as well as a subscription-based cable television channel. By 2005 Club Jenna had revenues of US$30 million with profits estimated at half that.[1] In 2006 it was described by Reuters as one of the handful of studios that dominate the U.S. porn industry.[2]

The studio is currently home to contract performers Lela Star and Roxy Jezel. Krystal Steal was the first performer to secure a contract with the company in October 2003. On May 2, 2007, it was formally announced that the company had decided not to renew the contracts of four of their premier performers; Ashton Moore, McKenzie Lee, Sophia Rossi, and Chanel St. James. Jesse Capelli and Brea Bennett left the company shortly thereafter.[3]

On June 22, 2006, Playboy Enterprises announced the acquisition of the company.[4] Playboy TV hosts the Jenna's American Sex Star reality show where aspiring porn stars compete for a Club Jenna contract. Winners of the contracts for the first two years were Brea Bennett and Roxy Jezel.[5]

In Tucson, Arizona and surrounding areas, the standard definition (not Hi-Definition) feed of the Comcast cable broadcast of Super Bowl XLIII was interrupted in 2009 by an unknown party, when 30 seconds from "Shorteez" was broadcast to homes instead. Comcast offered a $10 credit for customers who claimed to have seen the incident.[6]
