==== Controversial mainstream appearances ====
Some of her mainstream appearances sparked controversy. An interview with Jameson contained in the 1999 [[Abercrombie & Fitch]] ''[[A&F Quarterly]]'' was part of the motivation for Michigan Attorney General [[Jennifer Granholm]] and Illinois Lieutenant Governor [[Corinne Wood]] to speak out against the hybrid magazine-catalog.<ref name="BaltimoreSun1999" /> The campaign was joined by parents and Christian [[American conservatism|conservative]] groups, and Abercrombie removed it from shelves in 2003.<ref name="ChicagoSunTimes2003" />

In November 2001, the [[Oxford Union]] debating society invited Jameson to come to [[Oxford]] to argue against the proposition "The House Believes that Porn is Harmful."<ref name="AskMenInterview" /> She wrote in her diary at the time, "I feel like I am going to be out of my element, but, I could never pass this chance up&nbsp;... it's a once in a lifetime thing."<ref name="JJDiary" /> In the end, her side won the debate 204 to 27.<ref name="Papermag" />

In February 2003, [[Pony International]] planned to feature her as one of several pornographic actors in advertisements for [[athletic shoes]]. This was attacked by [[Bill O'Reilly (commentator)|Bill O'Reilly]] of [[Fox News]] in an editorial called "Using Quasi-[[Prostitutes]] to Sell Sneakers", calling pornographic actors inappropriate role models for teens.<ref name="OReilly" /> In response, ''[[The Harvard Crimson]]'' proposed a boycott of O'Reilly and Fox News.<ref name="HarvardCrimson" /> Jameson herself sent a sarcastic email to the show, writing:
{{Blockquote|text=I hope Bill understands the difference between a porn star and a hooker. I assume he has done some research on the subject because he requested some of my videos after we finished taping my appearance. I imagine he wanted them for professional reasons.<ref name="Slate" />
