Jimi Hendrix’s Infamous Sex Tape With Groupies

Jimi Hendrix has numerous stories about his substance addiction, but he’d never been in the spotlight for his sexual affairs until an alleged sex tape was put out years after his death.

Jimi Hendrix’s Sex Tape Was Released

The infamous adult video company Vivid Entertainment released a 45-minute DVD in 2008 that allegedly included a sex tape of Jimi Hendrix. The 11-minute-video included a man resembling Hendrix engaging in various sexual acts with two unidentified women in a dimly lit bedroom in a hotel.

The company released a statement, saying that they consulted several experts to authenticate the guitarist’s likeness on the tape. These ‘experts’ include two women who closely know Hendrix — famous groupie Pamela Des Barres and Cynthia Albritton. It later turned out that the tape was bought from a person who bought it from a collector.

The company that put out Hendrix’s sex tape was the same distributor of the Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee sex tape.

Fans Can’t Decide If The Sex Tape Is Fake

There’s also two people who do think the man in the tape is Jimi Hendrix. Famous groupie Pamela Des Barres and Cynthia Albritton confirmed that the man in the footage is definitely the guitarist since the facial bone structure is the same and the facial hair is true to the style he was wearing in 1970.

One of Hendrix’s long-term girlfriends during the 1960s, named Kathy Etchingham, didn’t agree with those claims. She thinks the man in the video has a wider nose and nostrils compared to Hendrix, and the hairline is too low on the forehead.

Etchingham also said Hendrix was very shy when it comes to his private parts and wouldn’t allow anybody to see it, let alone make a sex tape.

The company that controls rights to Hendrix’s music strictly stated that the alleged sex tape was not authentic. Experience Hendrix said what’s been done is outrageous considering that Hendrix is deceased and unable to defend himself.

After Experience Hendrix’s statement, the co-chairman of Vivid Steven Hirsch issued his own thoughts and said his company is completely confident the sex tape is real. He claims there’s no part of the tape that can be refused as unauthentic, but fans cannot be certain for sure after all.
