CHATSWORTH, Calif. - Former adult film star Chloe Jones died on Saturday morning in her hometown of Houston. She was 29.
Jones’ best friend, Karen Struble, said the cause of her passing was not yet known. Her 30th birthday would have been June 17.
“It was sudden,” Struble told AVN.com. “She meant a lot to me. I’ve known her for 10 years. We had a lot of fun together. Whenever she was in California, we were together. The last time I saw her was in February for some appearances. The last time I spoke to her was a few weeks ago.”
Jones, a Penthouse Pet in April 1998, was a contract performer for Vivid Entertainment Group and New Sensations, the first company with which she was exclusive in 2001. She also had layouts in Playboy and Vanity Fair, among numerous other magazines, in addition to mainstream appearances on shows such as “Baywatch,” “Diagnosis Murder,” “Edenquest” and Showtime's “Full Frontal Comedy.” Jones performed in less than 30 productions in four years, and had stopped performing in adult videos last year.
“She was fun. She was a prankster,” Struble continued. “She had a good heart deep down, and I just know a lot of people in the business didn’t see that side of her. She had a funny laugh. She just wanted to be loved.”
Struble said that she met Jones 10 years ago at an audition for a Joan Jett music video.
“I wound up getting the job out of it. We all rode with Crazy Chloe. She’d run stoplights. She was a crazy girl. We were having a lot of fun. A month after that, I wound up living with her at her place {in LA}. She was adventurous, and ballsy and courageous. She wanted to take life by the horns.”
Struble said that Jones recently expressed a desire to write a book.
“As far as the adult industry, she was trying to get away from it,” she said. “She was taking a lot of rest. Her next goal was to write a book. … I talked to her at least every other month minimum. She would stay with me when she came to LA.”
Struble continued, “She had a lot of different faces. To those who really knew her, she was fun, crazy and adventurous. She was a storyteller. She’s known the most for her storytelling. She was a good person.”
All Media Play's Jeff Mullen got to know Jones during her adult film career.
"Chloe Jones was a good friend of ours," Mullen said. "I first worked with Chloe when she was signed to New Sensations a few years back and had never met anybody quite like her. She was Texas-sized fun and often times quite the pain in the ass but if you really spent any social time with her, you realized she was totally cool.
"I remember going on a wild trip to Brazil and we were getting on the airplane and she was arguing with this guy to move to a different seat so that our group could all sit together. The guy was a prick and wouldn’t budge, and much to our surprise, he was the still photographer assigned to covering her on the trip. That was typical Chloe. We all had a big laugh about that one. ... As a representative for All Media Play and New Sensations we send out our heartfelt condolences to her family in Texas."
Jones is survived by three children, an 8-year-old girl and 7-year-old twin boys.
“She loved her children very much and she wanted them to be happy,” Struble added.
Club Jenna Inc. indicated it would be setting up a fund for Jones' children that it would contribute to on a monthly basis. The email address info@chloeaid.com will be set up in the next 48 hours for inquiries.
