Veteran porn actor and pop-culture icon Ron Jeremy is in a critical condition after receiving treatment for an aneurysm in his heart. When he started experiencing severe chest pains Jeremy drove himself to Cedars-Sinai hospital where the condition was diagnosed and his health deteriorated from there.
Affectionately known as “The Hedgehog“, Jeremy starred in over 2000 movies including 21 Hump Street, Men in Back, and The Crack Pack, carving out a hugely successful niche in the adult film industry despite looking like the last dude most girls would want to sleep with (ever). Jeremy’s work was not limited to the porn industry. He had guest roles in more mainstream films like Rules Of Attraction, The Boondock Saints, and Matt Stone and Trey Parker’s excellently juvenile porn/superhero parody Orgazmo.
On behalf of all tubby, hairy, moustachioed men who lived vicariously through you, get well soon Ron!
