James Deen Does Not Masturbate To His Own Sex Tape, Unlike Farrah Abraham

Yesterday, we were all assaulted with the mental image of Farrah Abraham masturbating to Farrah Abraham. But in a statement apparently designed to rid her of any confidence that she has left, her sex tape partner, porn star James Deen, has announced that he decidedly does not jerk off to the video they made together.
Deen told Celebuzz that his disinterest is not a personal dig at the former "Teen Mom" star; rather, he rarely gets off to his own work:
“I have not masturbated to it...I don’t really watch my own scenes,” Deen confessed.
It's not the first time that Deen and Abraham have butted heads. In fact, they've kind of done nothing but butt heads ever since the tape came out.
For instance, it was Deen who told TMZ that the video they made was no accidentally leaked sex tape, but rather, a deliberately leaked full-on professional porn. In response, Abraham—somewhat melodramatically—proclaimed that she would never have anything to do with Deen, ever again.
Either way, Deen isn't above taking Abraham's self-love habits as a personal accolade, telling Celebuzz that:
“I do take it as a compliment."
