Former porn star Jenna Jameson, who recently converted to Judaism, was this week caught up in a Twitter spat with the former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard David Duke after she revealed she was attracted to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Reacting to comments made by Mr Netanyahu on Sunday to the annual Saban Forum for Middle East Policy in Washington, Ms Jameson tweeted: “It’s so apparent Trump and BeBe [sic] are going to be great friends… I have to admit I have a massive crush on @netanyahu.”

Duke immediately responded, tweeting: “((( Jenna Jameson ))) reveals ‘massive crush’ on Netanyahu. Jews dominate porn — why are ‘Christians’ ok with that?”

In response, Ms Jameson told the Times of Israel:  “I guess it is my first welcome to being Jewish and hated for it. Being targeted was something I knew would come but it still shocked me to be attacked by such an outspoken loathsome monster like David Duke.”

Ms Jameson later remarked that Mr Netanyahu’s wife was a “lucky woman” to be married to such a “complete badass”.

The former adult film star  appeared in the UK series of Big Brother, notably insisting on having her own kosher fridge.
