Jenna Lewis Sex Tape

Who? Contestant on Survivor.

Real? Yes, the tape circulates widely and it’s really Jenna.

Jenna Lewis was a contestant on the original Survivor (US edition), the season eventually won by fat naked guy schemer Richard Hatch. She later appeared on Survivor: All Stars.

She married Travis Wolfe around May 1, 2004. Lewis and Wolfe honeymooned in Vegas and videotaped their wedding night sex. Somehow they “lost” the tape, and the Jenna Lewis sex tape showed up on the internet one month later.

From the start, many suspected that Lewis intentionally shot and distributed the sex tape to cash in on her short-lived fame. Lewis put out a press release in July, claiming that the “sharp-witted, vibrant reality television star” was “fighting mad” over the tape going public. Oddly, the same press release also provided the URL where web surfers could pay to watch the tape. It also reported that Jenna was “close to choosing the media outlet to grant an exclusive interview” about the sex tape.

Also suspicious: the domain name used to sell the Jenna Lewis sex tape was registered on May 3, 2004, the monday following Lewis and Wolfe’s honeymoon weekend. Soon after the tape went public, some pornsite operators copied and started reselling the tape. Lewis’s lawyers were reportedly very aggressive at shutting down those sites, but never went after the original site.

In December 2004, Ben Widdecombe at the New York Daily News uncovered evidence confirming these suspicions. Widdecombe reported that Lewis and her manager created the website selling the tape; that the site had grossed more than $100,000 in six months; that Lewis “pocketed 70% of the proceeds, paid into a City National Bank account in Los Angeles”; that Lewis’s manager received 7.5%; and that Lewis and Wolfe had already split up by July 1, with Wolfe getting nothing from the tape’s proceeds.

The 42-minute tape is not bad. The lighting and image quality are better than most home sex tapes. About 1/3 the running time consists of Lewis slowly fellating Wolfe. Once they move to the bedroom, the stationary camera at the foot of the bed provides a limited view of the action. The highlight is several minutes of girl-on-top with Lewis’s ass facing the camera. Wolfe delivers a porno-style money shot on her chest, they cuddle for a bit, the end.
