James Deen’s Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign Nets Over $5K

LOS ANGELES—In honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (October 1 – 31), prolific adult entertainment star James Deen is donating over $5,000 of his online proceeds to national breast cancer charities. At the beginning of October, Deen pledged 50 percent of profits from JamesDeen.com and JamesDeenStore.com to Living Beyond Breast Cancer, National Breast Cancer Foundation, and The Rose—all top-tier charities committed to breast cancer prevention, treatment, and research. The money will be split evenly amongst all three organizations.  “I’ve witnessed many of my loved ones—from family to close friends—fight various forms of cancer, so for me, there’s a personal element to this donation,” said Deen. “I know people who have beaten it, and others who haven’t, so if I can make a positive impact on the war against cancer, I’m all for it.” “I’ve had both a friend and a family member diagnosed with breast cancer, but regardless of the type, I think a fight against one cancer is a fight against all,” he added. Once mainstream media caught wind of Deen’s efforts to assist breast cancer charities, the campaign picked up even more steam. Features on popular outlets such as The Daily Beast further pushed awareness of Deen’s movement, and invited consumers to purchase more products for the cause. “With ‘so much cancer’ in his life, [adult] film star James Deen decided he wanted to use his celebrity to help raise money,” wrote Vocativ’s Luke Malone. “He spoke with his mother about how to best move forward, and they agreed that Breast Cancer Awareness Month seemed like the perfect opportunity.” To view a video of James Deen discussing the importance of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, click here. Each October marks a new, annual National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which is dedicated to a variety of activities and fundraisers to increase awareness of the disease. According to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime. Those whose cancer is detected early have a 98 percent survival rate after five years. Deen’s websites, JamesDeen.com and JamesDeenStore.com, are the one-stop-shops for everything about the porn—and mainstream—movie star. Featuring his blog, links to social media, current James Deen news, and James Deen merchandise such as films, apparel, and more, fans can find all their James Deen needs. The sites, as well as James Deen Productions, provide a platform for Deen’s vision of respectful, safe, and fun entertainment. The motto James Deen Productions works to embody every day is “set the bar high, then jump over it.”
