Adult film star Ron Jeremy has starred in more than 2,000 pornographic flicks, but when the L.A. porn king isn’t stripping down on-screen, he likes to sit back on the couch with his pet turtle, Cherry, and watch a little “O’Reilly Factor.”
“He knows I’m a big fan of his,” Jeremy told the Track. “I disagree with most of what he says, but I love his sincerity, his humor, and the way he presents it. He’s very, very entertaining.”
But not too convincing, because come November, Jeremy will be voting to re-elect President Obama. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have any love for Mitt Romney and his crew.
“I think he means well, I think he’s a good man,” Jeremy said.
“I think the fact that he’s such an amazing father proves a lot. I give him a lot of credit. He’s raised some good sons. When a man is a really, really good father, that’s very important,” said Ron, a lifelong bachelor. “It’s a good race.”
Jeremy breezed through town over the weekend to promote his new line of rum, Ron de Jeremy. (“Ron” means rum in Spanish, FYI.)
But the actor, 59, says he’s not one for heavy-duty boozing.
“No, actually not at all,” Jeremy said. “It’s been kind of a joke. I haven’t smoked pot since college. … I’m not a big drinker, but I drink a little, and this rum is terrific.”
Although he was named the No. 1 Porn Star Of All Time by Adult Video News, Ron said that as he tours the country to promote his new liquor, more fans ask him about the cult-fave Boston vigilante flick “The Boondock Saints” than his love scenes in “Debbie Does Dallas.”
“When I do autograph signings for the rum, I get 20 or 30 people at least wanting me to sign the DVD cover of ‘Boondock Saints.’”
File Under: No Saint.
