Internet shocked as adult film star Jesse Jane dies at 43 along with BF from suspected drug overdose

MOORE, OKLAHOMA: Adult film star Jesse Jane was found dead at the age of 43 alongside her boyfriend in her Oklahoma home this week. Known to fans simply as Jesse, the performer's death has stunned the adult entertainment industry she helped shape over a nearly 20-year career.

Jane, whose real name was Cindy Taylor, shot to porn stardom in the early 2000s with big-budget films like the 'Pirates' franchise. She gained enough crossover appeal to land mainstream magazine covers and TV cameos, as reported by Daily Mail.

On Tuesday afternoon, January 23, police officers arrived at Jane's home in Moore, Oklahoma after her boyfriend, Brett Hasenmueller, had failed to appear at work for several days on end. When officers entered the home to perform a welfare check, they discovered Jane and Hasenmueller deceased in the residence.

While the medical examiner's office has yet to determine an official cause of death, investigators on the scene said evidence suggested that Jane and Hasenmueller had suffered apparent drug overdoses. Results from a toxicology report are pending to confirm investigators' suspicions.

Born Cindy Taylor in Fort Worth, Texas, Jane rose to fame in the early 2000s as one of Digital Playground's earliest contract stars. She had starred in big-budget adult films like 'Pirates,' which cost around $8 million to produce back in 2005 and still considered one of the most expensive adult films ever made.

That exposure catapulted Jane into crossover stardom beyond the confines of the adult industry. She appeared on magazine covers, hosted a Playboy TV show, and even landed a cameo on the hit HBO series 'Entourage.'

Her inductions into both the AVN and XRCO Halls of Fame cemented Jane's legacy as an enduring star of the adult genre. She built her career not only through raw on-screen talent, but also through business savvy and an innate understanding of building a personal brand in the internet age.
