Death

I heard he died today, just looking for a link to confirm. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andy Lowson (talk • contribs) 15:14, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

Biography

The second paragraph states "Upon returning to the U.S...". The previous paragraph doesn't mention where he left to. Please correct mistake by either stating where he left to, or deleting that quote altogether.

"In 1996..."

The paragraph that talks about Freak Of The Week has way too many "he also..."s in it. Someone should try to combine or smooth out that paragraph.

Removed from article:

An extra-large common pork sausage was named after him.

Nah. Ortolan88

You know how delis sometimes name sandwichs after famous people. Yeah. He's had several sausages named after him.

Somebody needs to point out the irony of a Jewish porn star having a pork sausage named after him...

Fractions, UNICODE, size

Is there a guideline for this anywhere? Thanks to the extensive flexibility built into UNICODE, fractions can be composed in a variety of ways, using a variety of digit systems. Surely it's easier to just write "9.75"?

9¾ should be preferred over 9.75, since the accuracy is ¼ inches, rather than 0.01. Likewise, the use of two decimal accuracy in the metric conversion is unjustified, since ¼ in. equals 0.635 cm – meaning that 24.8 cm is already more accurate a figure than 9¾ in. BTW, the guy weighs 210 lb. (95 kg).

A Google search supports 9-3/4" over 9-7/8".

I'm glad Alkivar's had the honor of meeting Ron Jeremy, but do you think we could trim the picture so as to cut Alkivar out of it? It looks like Wikipedian advertising. Anyone looks at that and they'll think, hey, who's that guy standing beside Ron? But if we provide the answer to that, it's essentially vanity. Everyking 01:28, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

I agree with you Everyking, I actually replaced the photo. and I've also had a problem with a certain user actually restoring several of Alkivar's photos (i've removed Alkivar from over 20 articles at this point). Please go to my talk page to express your opnion. Themindset 00:28, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

Career stats

That link to his Internet Adult Film Database entry gives him 1,878 credits as an actor, and 263 as a director. Shouldn't these more accurate figures be used in the article itself? Surely this has to be a better source than the one that gave the vague numbers of 2,000 and 100!

IMDB is like Wiki, edited by 'users'. The Ron Jeremy list of movies increases rather constantly as other movies that aren't in the database are found by users. Numbers from IMDB will most always be inaccurate.

POV

There's a lot of POV language in here. "volcano of academic talent" "flirted with by [the school]" blahblahblah. Also... proof that he is bisexual? --Thorns Among Our Leaves 22:59, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

I think about the only proof your going to find he's bisexual are the 30 odd gay pornos he made. I'm pretty sure he self identifies as hetero.  ALKIVAR™ 00:30, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Precisely my point. "Gay-for-pay" does not a bisexual person make. Thorns Among Our Leaves 01:11, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Penis size

Please, let's get real here. Ron Jeremy's penis is very large- much larger than average- but I strongly doubt it measures 9.75 inches in length. After all, if it did, his penis would be as long as his entire forearm- if not longer, since Jeremy is only 5'6" tall. And it would dwarf the size of most of his female co-stars' forearms. Clearly, it isn't as long as his forearm, or the vast majority of his co-stars' forearms, either. So, how big is Jeremy's penis really? My guess is somewhere between 8 and 9 inches, which is similar to Peter North's size- only North's penis is somewhat thicker. I strongly recommend that Ron Jeremy's penis length measurement be downgraded to something more realistic, such as the above range of 8-9 inches. Solcis 05:06, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

I didn't have my ruler,but Ron Jeremy is in the best shape of his life. Meat on the bones is nothing to be a shamed of. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.239.191.219 (talk • contribs)

Yeah, it's definately not 9.75 inches. The

HT Productions 22:16, 1 March 2006 (UTC) I have shot a video involving Ron and Rebecca Cummings and can say he is 9.75 inches. The preception that Ron is smaller is due to his being overweight. Granted I didn't measure it but know it was large and have no reason to doubt Ron when he says it's 9 3/4 inches.

See Human Penis Size and http://menshealth.about.com/cs/penishealth/a/penis_size_2.htm for more information on penis size and being overweight. On the funny side - when I Googled, overweight "Penis size", there is even an article on DentalPlans.com about this.

Maybe we have a bit of a misunderstanding here. When I say I think Ron is 8-9 inches in length, I'm referring to his pubic bone-pressed measurement. That is, a measurement taken with a ruler over the top of the penis, whie pressing into the public bone. His non bone-pressed measurement would obviously be shorter, due to his body fat. He has obviously lost some visible length as his body fat percentage increased over the course of his career. Take a look at this link (caution: explicit sexual content) for some comparative pics of Ron's penis with Angelica Sin's hands. Look at the picture right in the middle. Her hands cover all but an inch of his length. Even if his fat is covering as much as 1.5-2 inches of his penis, he's still going to be a maximum of 9 inches in terms of bone-pressed length. This is because Ms. Sin's hands, like the average woman's, are slightly larger than 3 inches in width.

If you still believe Ron Jeremy packs nearly 10 inches of bone-pressed length, let me ask you this: is Peter North's penis larger or smaller on this basis and what do you think his length is?

HT Productions 22:31, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but the dildo stats prove nothing. Just because a dildo is a certain size, doesn't mean it corresponds exactly with the porn star's real size. In fact, the makers have a vested interest to inflate the size of the product, so that it sells. As for Jeremy's before and after pics, I've seen those before. They, too, prove nothing. His flaccid penis is... well, very large in both pics. Unfortunately, he is neither erect, nor is there a suitable frame of reference from which to make a judgement on his size. I can't see how any conclusions can be drawn from what you've posted here.

You have yet to respond to what I've already posted, including the pics showing Angelica Sin handling Jeremy's penis. Also, please see the comments section of human penis size, along with this link. According to the statistics found on those pages, a penis that's 8.5 to 9 inches in length will only be found in 1 out of every 500 men. Something larger is statistically rare, such as what John Holmes carried and what Mandingo and Lexington Steele have today. That is to say, given what I've presented here, the odds are against Jeremy possessing a penis that's in excess of 9 inches in bone-pressed length. But I believe he may very well be as large as 9 inches- just no larger.

If you disagree, at least give me the courtesy of responding to what I've presented here, rather than going on and citing more reasons why you feel Jeremy is just short of 10 inches in length. Thank you in advance.

Solcis 23:05, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

The pictures were posted as "interesting" not as proof of anything except anyone who looks at the pictures can see the effect of body weight and age on the appearance.

The stills of the video clips you cite prove nothing. Your information on the video clips is based on speculation and assumptions. I've never measured width of Sinn's hands and don't know how much Ron weighs. Since her hands are blurry and her hair is in focus her hands are in motion. Did she start at the base with a firm grip and stroke to the top which would pull the skin at the base up too? I don't know I wasn't there.

To answer your question if I think Peter North's penis larger or smaller and what I think his length is? I would have to say Ron is larger and Peter North is 8.5". I have not seen Peter North's penis in person and base my answer solely on the size of the dildos that were molded from (not molded after) their penises that I mentioned previously. An interesting pic of North using the mold can be found by (going here and clicking on the picture of the package.)

By referencing Lex Steels' 11 inches and John Holmes' 13.5 inches you give more credibility to the fact there are people larger than 8.5 - 9.0 inches out there. You also mentioned "a penis that's 8.5 to 9 inches in length will only be found in 1 out of every 500 men" and "the odds are against Jeremy possessing a penis that's in excess of 9 inches in bone-pressed length." Even that allows for the possibility Ron is actually 9.75 inches.

All that doesn't matter.

As I stated previously I have seen Ron's penis, know it's large and have no reason to doubt his word. Even if I showed you a picture showing it was 9.75 inches I don't think it would convince you and rightfully so since pictures can be altered. I am the same way. I tend to be skeptical of a lot of things. Since the only way that you would be sure of Ron's size is if you were personally there when it got measured and I've spent more time talking about Ron's penis then I thought I ever would, we are going to have to agree to disagree on this.

Don't forget the old maxim: "The camera adds ten pounds." It's true; everything appears slightly larger on film. --64.12.116.204 07:15, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Before you all start pontificating about your expertise on penis sizes, read this: What Was The Biggest Penis Size In Record? (BizarreMag.com) -JakeApple 19:23, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Maybe it ws 9 inches in his prime, but it is not even above 7 right now. Look at some of the recent amateur videos he's done. He can't even get it fully erect it seems like. When it is, it is only slightly bigger than average. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.182.224.195 (talk) 17:56, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

metric system

"20.5 inches (24.76 cm)"

EDIT-------20.5 inches is closer to 53cm

i'm not sure which is correct, but 20.5 inches is about 52 cm. anyway, seems 9.75 is correct. i'll let someone else cahnge it.

Can somebody please link to the source of the date of death being 25 May 2006? I cannot find a source for this anywhere online.

Unattractive

"Despite his short, overweight, and unattractive appearance..."

There can be little doubt that Jeremy's appearance agrees with his physical attributes, and his height and weight are, I assume, uncontestable. However, to say his appearance is unattractive is tantamount to calling his person unattractive, and somehow, I doubt that's something everybody would agree on. I recommend deleting the assertion that he's unattractive.

D021317c 10:46, 28 May 2006 (EDT)

Jewish

Where is the cite that he is Jewish and what is the relevance? The only time I ever see Jeremy called Jewish is by neo-Nazis trying to prove the depravity of "Jewish Hollywood." 75.3.233.208 09:59, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Of course it needs a cite, but isn't heritage always relevant in neutral biographies? Just because racist crazies point out that fact doesn't mean that stating it is inherently racist or irrelevant.198.24.31.108 16:28, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

In the Porn Star documentary, Ron has said himself he is a "non-practicing Jew." Unfortunately, I don't own it so I can't go word for word.

Well, obviously I can't back this up with any kind of proof I can show you, but I attended his debate with Chris Gross at JMU, and he briefly discussed his Jewish upbringing with the audience. He "bar-mitzvahed," in his own words.--Halloween jack 00:36, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

Given the wide circulation of this factoid by racist crazies, I think we should have a specific reason for including it in the article, rather than just including it "because". Nandesuka 01:38, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

I have no idea why you Americans have such a problem with religios beliefs. It is not a racist comment to stay, that a "normal" actor is jewish; and I think some people think that is an intersting point...so why not metion it? It's a fact, and facts belong into an encyclopedia. By the way, in the German Wikipedia his jewish heritage is mentioned...

What's wrong with being short anyway? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.214.228.48 (talk) 03:38, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

He's a guy with a big cock who knows how to use it, and is generally regarded as one of the nicest guys in porn to boot--identifing him as Jewish is anti-anti-semitism!

Ron Jeremy Gay

Per the comment tacked on the end of the MTSU entry:

Since 2004 Ron has been participating in a series of gay movies as a top. He has been also having an affair with Mark Davis.

Is there any proof of this? It seems like someone randomly tacked it on the page and is borderline libelous. Either sources should be provided or it should be deleted.

That's... Creepy.

"Unsourced and potentially defamatory material"

This is addressed to the User:Frise - you have practically blanked the article, using the statement "removing unsourced and potentially defamatory material". Your intentions may be honorable, but your actions constitute vandalism. If you have a problem with the material found in the article, please remove just the material in question. Wholesale removal is frowned upon. Tabercil 22:44, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

• Please re-read the policy on Vandalism. Actions made in good faith (honorable intentions, as you put it) are never vandalism, so it is inappropriate for you to refer to them as such. Practically the whole article was unsourced and potentially defamatory, so it was removed. Restoring unsourced material is no different than if you had put it there in the first place, so be sure all your edits are properly sourced according to BLP policy. Frise 22:49, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Blanking

I have now removed the potentially libellous information from the article. Can I ask that editors on this page exercise some restraint over editing? Blanking a page is bad, revert warring is bad, discussing is good. So, please discuss more and blank less. If this sort of behaviour occurs again it will more than likely lead to the blockhammer being used.-Localzuk^(talk) 23:31, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

WP:BLP

I think that Frise has done the right thing here. Yes, it is entirely possible that he could have done more... by going through this thoroughly horrible article and trying to extract the tiny handful of facts which are properly sourced. I hope that he, or someone, will take the time to do so... fact-by-fact, very carefully.

But simply restoring the unsourced junk in this article and adding fact tags to it is not really enough. We must take quality very seriously, and this is precisely the intent of our ongoing efforts to raise quality standards.

The version I just blanked contained such gems as an unsourced claim that Mr. Jeremy is known as a "The Hedgehog", that he was but is no longer capable of autofellatio, that he was arrested on two occassions, that he has had unprotected sex with thousands of people, that he claims to have had sex with 5000 women, etc.

Are those claims true? Well, in the case of Mr. Jeremey who has admittedly led a colorful life, it seems likely that they are. But "it seems like something that could be true" must not be sufficient cause to re-introduce questionable material into Wikipedia, and if all that someone has time to do is nuke a bad article, the right response to those who want to restore it, is to restore it fact by fact, piece by piece, making absolutely certain that the quality is right.--Jimbo Wales 07:27, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

References

Before I add any information from this webpage linked to his biopic, would this constitute as a usable reference?—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 08:25, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

It's a biased source promoting a product so anything reflecting that bias can't be relied on to be factual. The same considerations hold whether quoting a GM site about their cars or Bush about the Iraq war. WAS 4.250 08:40, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, it's his movie, right? In that case, it can at least be used as a source for what he claims is true about himself.—Nat Krause^{(Talk!·What have I done?)} 08:46, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

That is what I thought. Now, what can be used from the various film/movie databases, if anything?—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 08:48, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

It depends, are they classed as reliable sources? There is a collection of information on the IMDB that may be includable but is the IMDB reliable? Other than that we an safely say that he has been in X number of movies from the lists on those sites.-Localzuk^(talk) 10:39, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

According to policy and guidelines we can use self-sources for articles about that subject. So, yes, it would be an acceptable source - so long as it was written in such a way as to say 'According to Ron Jeremys site'.-Localzuk^(talk) 10:39, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

IMDB is reliable to a point, just as Wikipedia is reliable to a point. It can be relied on in most cases, given reasonable caution. The user submitted trivia bits should be regarded with a bit more suspicion than fairly run of the mill information like movie titles and release dates.--Jimbo Wales 17:11, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

What about IAFD or AFDB? The first is the recognized leading adult film industry-specific version of IMDB, and the second is a close rival. A large chunk of the information that was in the info box for Ron was probably originally taken from a combination of those three sites (IMDB, IAFD and AFDB) and if I go to add it all back into the article, I'll have to cite those three sites (in various permutations) as sources... In fact before you blanked the article I had used IAFD to cite his film count, and I'll likely be restoring that tidbit with the same source. Tabercil 18:01, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

I have created this test page to try and glean any useful information out of the last full version, including suitable references and other information.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 20:32, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Might want to be careful there. BLP applies everywhere on Wikipedia, not just the articles themselves. Frise 21:17, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Including in a sandbox to improve this article? Even in there, I've removed several unsubstantiated claims, leaving only a few uncited things. If you wish, you can go through that and see what may be useful in the main article, and when it is over with, the sub page can be deleted.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 22:14, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

If you've already gone through it, it's cool. Frise 22:34, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps you can see if there's anything in there that we can incorporate into the main article, then?—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 22:36, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm having trouble finding reliable sources for most of it. Even the bit about MTSU, my alma mater. I think this was a perfect example of what I call a "common knowledge" article. It's easy to look at it and think, "Oh, everyone knows that about Ron Jeremy" but good reliable sources are harder to come by than one would think. Frise 22:45, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Well I know the last three paragraphs (Oxford Union, Jeremy/Goss and memoirs) are all sourced, so I'll be adding them back into the main article. As well, the segment about the PETA ads is sourced as well. Tabercil 01:10, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes, there are claims at the IMDB bio that he holds a Guinness record, but I am without the book here to figure out anything useful to cite it. Additionally, another book released by the onion has an interview with him, but I too, do not own it.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 22:50, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Looking good!

The article is vastly improved.

I invite those with an interest to also take a look at Judith A. Reisman, which I similarly stubbed a few days before this one, but not much has happened since then.--Jimbo Wales 19:42, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

• Thank you for the compliment Jimbo. There's much more info that needs to be added, especially about his early days in porn but I suspect it'll have to wait until his memoirs hits the bookshelves as I can't seem to locate any reliable sources online. Tabercil 00:26, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

I have to say, that even though I disagree with the blanking method used, the outcome has been superb. The article is now very well sourced and seems to have gained a new load of editors who are keeping an eye on it to prevent its return to former sloppiness. A good example of collaboration!-Localzuk^(talk) 11:50, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

• I'd spotted that article back when I was rebuilding the article after Jimbo's blanking, but I judged at the time it didn't qualify as a reliable source. Tabercil 22:35, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Doesn't Ron Jeremy have a masters or some sort of advanced degree in education? Is there a source available to confirm/deny?

• Yup. He has a Master's in Special Education. Mentioned in the first paragraph of the Biography section with a citation already for it. Tabercil 23:45, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Okay, I'm tossing this in because I remember seeing it, but hopefully someone with more knowledge will be able to fill it in with accurate data and edit the main article... I distinctly remember a show on Showtime about a pair of women that ran a dating service, a vehicle akin to Red Shoe Diaries-type erotic stories. Ron Jeremy was in one episode where he (playing himself) wanted to meet a nice girl because every girl he met was always just interested in having sex with him ("OMG! I slept with Ron Jeremy!" sorta thing) but didn't consider him relationship material (he is, after all, a porn star). I can't remember the show's name, however, as I haven't had Showtime for a few years now; if someone else knows what this was and can confirm the episode, it should be added to his list of television appearances.Ruined Saint (talk) 08:16, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Non-nice bits of unsourced POV

The line "Most young starlets are unattracted to his sloppy and greasy appearance." is, unsupprisingly, unsourced. It's also POV and most likely incorrect. Unreg'ed users can't edit to remove or add a request for source, so can someone...? 124.120.88.237 21:25, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Actual Penis Size

The source cited for Ron Jeremy's penis size: The New York Times article lists clearly that he measures it at "nine and three-quarter inches" ("In fact, Jeremy measures the length of his penis at nine and three-quarter inches, significantly smaller than that of the porn star John Holmes, but nevertheless his greatest asset." (http://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/18/books/review/Stern.t.html?_r=1&ex=1172898000&en=50d36d61e83ae768&ei=5070)

Photograph

I notice that some effort appears to be being made to use recent photographs of adult film stars of the 70's through 90's, when most of them have lost some or most of their attractiveness. Contrast this to the 1968 picture of Brigette Bardot in her Wiki Article. This strikes me as a subtle but definite violation of the Wikipedia policy against expressing bias.

Picture

Would it not be more meaningful to have a picture of him in his classic days, the way he is remembered, rather than in his advanced years? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.204.149.88 (talk) 15:08, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Or even both? Sure! We need someone who has taken such a picture to contribute it though. Wikipeida cnanot accept pictures downloaded from other sites, so this may be difficult to find. DMacks (talk) 16:01, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Missing items in this article

Some comments based on what I've heard about Jeremy, which this article should address if anyone wants it to improve in quality:

• Jeremy has frequently expressed his desire to do "legitimate" film/movies. To the point to taking bit roles at a financial loss, only to find out that when the PTB discover Ron Jeremy is in a given scene it gets cut from the final version. (This was mentioned in a documentary about Jeremy; anyone know if a list of these movies exists?)
• I've heard the story that Jeremy had a bit role in the movie Jesus Christ, Superstar. Can anyone offer a reliable source to show this was (1) true, (2) an urban legend, or (3) just a goof?

-- llywrch (talk) 23:09, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

For the second, none of the above. See Paul Thomas. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 23:21, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

Hmm. I had read this on IMDB, where for a while Jesus Christ Superstar was on Jeremy's list of movies he appeared in -- although with a question mark. Probably someone added it because Jeremy is a better-known pornographic actor than Paul Thomas. And I doubt that the people behind JCS would want it known either was associated with the movie, so they ignored the entry for a while. -- llywrch (talk) 20:36, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

Allegations of Rape

I've read that several porn film actresses have accused Ron Jeremy of rape. The all have detailed stories of these accusations. This appears to be missing from Ron Jeremy's page. Anyone know a reason for this? One source: http://business.avn.com/articles/Ron-Jeremy-Denies-Allegations-of-Rape-Brought-by-Ginger-Lynn-36525.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by ElectroDrache (talk • contribs) 01:44, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

It's valid in as much as Ginger Lynn went public with it. But given the very casual nature of the industry, especially in the '70s and '80s, and the amount of drugs Ginger Lynn has done --how many times has she been in rehab???-- I would take it with more than one grain of salt.johncheverly 16:43, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

PERSONAL LIFE/HEART ATTACK.

Ronnie, now aged 60, had a very serious heart attack in January 2013 and was in intensive care and had a very serious heart operation. This needs to be included. Here is but one of many links about the situation: http://www.tmz.com/2013/02/22/ron-jeremy-sex-healthy-heart-surgery-recovery-video/johncheverly 16:48, 22 March 2013 (UTC)

Weight?

Does anyone really believe that Ron Jeremy weighs 180 pounds (the weight listed in this article)? He probably hasn't weighed 180 pounds since 1980. Jpcohen (talk) 23:20, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

I've put a "citation needed" tag on that. He has had weight related health issues and his weight does need a cite. Marteau (talk) 10:55, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Does it matter? He's a male porn star, not a runway model. Lets be realistic about this... :) --Scalhotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy... (talk) 18:17, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Untitled

Ron is in South Beach Academy (1996) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111248/fullcredits#cast http://www.hulu.com/watch/146470/south-beach-academy

Not a single mention of his penis size either. Why else would a man this ugly be in thousands of porno films?

As I understand it, because he is really REALLY good at, for lack of a better word, acting in a porn movie. He has very little ego when it comes to being the big hung super porno star, being more interested in making a good product than flexing his mighty dong, and is really good at making the girls feel good, both sexually and as a person.

friends

Ron has been my friend for nearly 25 years and I spend a large amount of time with him. We've filmed several mainstream films together as well as a current reality show called Ron Jeremy Does Hollywood. Ron never assaulted a woman sexualy. It's eady to cast these lies about, but I know what Ron is like at these appearances. He's hired to appear and sign autographs. Most of the time, girks want Ron to sign their asses, or breasts. They want pictures with him where he's grabbing their breasts or grabbing their asses. Ron is innocent. Blufgurb (talk) 03:57, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Probably citogenesis

This entire paragraph:

"Jeremy began using his first and middle name professionally in the adult industry, after his grandmother Rose was pestered by people calling her thinking they were contacting him. Rose, listed at that time as R. Hyatt in the phone book, was reportedly pestered at all hours by prospective suitors who'd seen Jeremy in Playgirl. "She had to move out of her apartment for a month," he has said. "My father told me, 'If you want to get into this naked, crazy business, so be it, but if you use the family name again, I'll kill you.'"[12] He quickly dropped his last name professionally for fear of embarrassing his family.[7]"

Has two citations, 7 and 12. 7 is a broken link with no content, 12 is a blog post that does indeed have the anecdote in question, but which claims to have gotten it from Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kierkkadon (talk • contribs) 15:53, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
