The April 15, 2004 issue of the New York Times included an article in the House & Home section describing the writer's tour of Jenna Jameson's 6,700-square-foot Spanish-style mansion. She bought it in 2002 for about $2 million. Yes, it was in the New York Times! If you subscribe to the online version of the New York Times, you can get it online. Otherwise, it's time to dust off that library card! Here's an excerpt from the article: "Ms. Jameson had on a modest blue cashmere Louis Vuitton sweater, jeans and pink patent leather Louis Vuitton boots, along with as a 9 1/2-carat diamond wedding ring and a 13-carat canary diamond from her husband.

She looked like any other affluent Scottsdale homemaker, except that her surgically enhanced 32 double-D breasts seem disproportionate to her 110-pound, 5-foot-7 frame." You can find the article by performing a search at the New York Times online. Put the phrase "Off Camera, Cashmere and Crosses" in the search box. Make sure you search far enough back to get to April 15, 2004. The name of the article was: At Home With Jenna Jameson; Off Camera, Cashmere and Crosses
