PHOENIX - Jenna Jameson is suing in federal court to bar her publisher from getting a cut of a proposed reality show featuring the adult film star.

Jameson's suit in Phoenix federal court asks a judge to rule that an April 2004 development agreement signed with Regan Media doesn't apply to a deal that Jameson negotiated herself with A&E for a show based on her daily life.

Jameson says in the suit that the A&E deal was negotiated before the Regan Media agreement.

Regan Media owner Judith Regan countersued, saying the 2004 agreement with Jameson gives Regan Media the exclusive rights to negotiate with television networks for a reality show.

The countersuit says Jameson, whose real name is Jenna Massoli, violated the agreement by negotiating a contract with A&E without Regan Media.

David Bodney, an attorney representing Regan Media, declined to comment on the lawsuit.

He referred calls to Harper Collins, whose Regan Books division published Jameson's biography, "How to Make Love Like a Porn Star." A spokesman for Regan Books didn't return a phone message left late Thursday.

A Phoenix-based attorney for Jameson didn't immediately return a phone call Thursday.

Was Jameson the girl who was playing footsie with Bob Barker when both were doing The Price is Right, and then sued him over something?

Tough to figure out which slut to root against in this one.

No, that was Dian Parkinson. There were also two others: Holly Hallstrom and Janice Pennington

Jenna Jameson has been an adult film star for over a decade now.

I was thinking the very same thing. Is there a way for them both to lose?

Jenna Jameson has NOTHING on Vanessa Del Rio or Seka in their prime. These "Vivid Gals"" just can't compare to the stars of the no-tell theatre set back in the day...

Jameson is trash. She needs to find God and repent, before it's too late.

Well Jenna Jameson may have 'nothing' right now, but in her chosen field of work, she may end up with 'something' like many of her peers, as in HIV/AIDS.

Regardless of your opinion of her (and I too disagree with her line of work), you have to concede she's a hell of a capitalist.

While most porn stars burn out and are seen walking the streets of Hollywood, Jameson makes more money than most regular actors.

It's amazing how many views posts get when porn stars are in them.

1. This is the INTERNET after all and you know what type of sites drive the format (it aint politics).

2. Not all Freepers are a bunch of Church ladies.

Man did Nina had a rump on her.

Another one of my favorites was Janine Lindemulder. But she only did other women. I think Motley Crue's Vince Neil or Nikki Sixx got lucky and hit that behind, though.
