From Tampa Toddler to Playboy
Princess: Jenn Sterger
What does it take to be discovered by Playboy and Maxim? For Jenn
Sterger, it took tickets to a college football game, a little luck
and girl-next-door look.
Jennifer Lynette Sterger started out
like many other young ladies in the US - two loving parents, a
little sister and an uneventful childhood in and out of Florida.
Born in Miami on November 29, 1983, her family moved a few times
during her early childhood before settling down in the Tampa area.
She was a member of the National Honor Society and maintained a GPA of 5.0
in high school. Though she played piano early in life, in middle school she
took up playing the flute and excelled. Her extracurricular sport of choice?
Bowling; she's got the plaques and trophies to prove it. And even though she
has always been small in stature (even fully grown she's only 5'3"), she did
earn her way to the top of the marching band as drum major in high school.
It was at the drum major podium that Jenn's love of football began.
Commanding the band her high school games, rooting on the Gaither Cowboys
and feeling the energy of the crowd is what gave birth to her football
craze. The love of the game continued after graduation when Miss Sterger
began attending the University of Southern Florida. She started working as a
nanny and at a sunglass shop while attending USF.
After two years at the Tampa school, Sterger transferred to Florida State
University, in Tallahassee. While the move was originally because of a
boyfriend, she found their criminology and psychology programs to be superb.
She continues to attend FSU studying criminology and psychology, still
working part time as a nanny and rooting for the FSU football team, the
Seminoles. She would have remained an unknown college student had she not
taken to attending football games in little more than team-spirited shirts.
One game Jenn attended was a college football match-up masterpiece - Labor
Day, Monday Night football game between two of the nation's fiercest
rivalries - Miami vs. Florida State. The Seminoles beat out their long-time
adversary, scoring 10 points to the Hurricane's 7. Though no one realized it
at the time, it would turn out to be one of the most important days in
Jenn's life as well.
Brent Musberger, the sportscaster summarizing the game, saw her in the
stands during the game and made a haphazard comment about her
attractiveness. "15,000 young red-blooded American men just signed up to go
to Florida State next semester."
While FSU didn't see a huge jump in registrations, Facebook, a web portal
that publishes photos of college co-eds, did see an increase in one
particular picture.that beauty from the FSU game. Before long, her
bikini-clad photo from Facebook made its way to the editors of Playboy and
Maxim magazines.
Within nine months of that fateful September game, Sterger has appeared in
spreads for both magazine giants. She has embraced her fame but hasn't let
it go to her head. She still regularly attends FSU games and maintains a
full time student schedule. After graduation in Spring 2007, she plans on
continuing to law school.
Rumor has it that her beverage of choice is a mint chocolate chip martini
but on a Spring Break blog she admits to partaking of "mucho tequila". This
brown eyed, brown haired girl-next-door shares the same dream man as many
other women - the unattainable Brad Pitt. Jenn Sterger - football fanatic
and lovely looking lass.

Jenn Sterger Latest News:
Jenn Sterger says it all
Jennifer Lynette Sterger, the Miami beauty who accidentally led to an internet craze because of her remarkable performance at one Florida State University, the girl who is widely recognized as the “facebook princess” recently revealed almost everything about her personal life such as her getting at FSU, how the whole internet craze started etc.
In an interview conducted by the Across the Board.com the 24 year old beauty told about the commencement and authenticity of the Florida State Cowgirls that “It all started at the Miami/FSU game this past September. Some drunken idiot spilled beer on my shirt while I was in the village (a place we all tailgate), and I was like… fu*k it! I just threw on my bathing suit top, and took one for the team ;) . I was not about to miss this game.
Some amazing cameramen and the sports commentator Brent Musburger from ABC turned what could've been a two second crowd shot into a "THREE REASONS TO COME TO FLORIDA STATE" recruitment video. He said something to the effect of, “15,000 young red-blooded American men just signed up to go to Florida State next semester.”
The pictures from the game spread through the message boards like crazy. Something I thought had lasted two seconds, was more like four quarters. I began posting on the main message board that had my pictures, and they dubbed me- ‘The Cowgirl.’
The FSU cowgirls weren't plural until the second game. There are 7 different cowgirls: Myself, Chrystal, Fabi, Danae, Jessica, Morgan, and Sakina. Each brings something different to the mix and I love them all for it. Danae, Fabi, and I made the actual debut, and subsequent girls followed (usually the ones that weren't hung over from the night before.)
Of course there are other people who have made all of this possible, and as much as I would like to thank them, I choose to keep their identity a secret ;) they know who they are.
When the Across the Board.com interviewer asked about how does she feel after receiving immense attention from Facebook.com and Myspace.com, Jennifer said “I don't mind the messages at all. Sometimes they get a little monotonous, and repetitive, I mean, how many times can u quote anchorman? “I am so happy your office smells of rich mahogany and that you have many leather bound books...” and that you want to ‘be on me’…but come on. ;) I'm a movie fanatic…so I expect a broader range of quotes. The messages that usually get a response are the ones that catch my eye, or revel something deeper about the person that wrote them. I like the ones that actually take time to read my profile…because every bit of it is true.
As for the hate mail… its not nearly as often as the rest, but you will get an occasional ‘go kill yourself’, or ‘you are ugly.’ To them, I say take your ball and go home. No one wants to play with you, and block them out. I don't have time to deal with haters, life is too short, why waste it on people that don't really matter?
Jenn Sterger is back!!
If we have missed mentioning this before, we do it now – Jenn Sterger is the most sought after face on the popular community facebook.com; she herself is an active member. there. Jenn is a unique phenomenon whose popularity has been built on the exposure she has gained on the internet on sites such as myspace.com. She is also the face that moved Brent Musberger to state that “15,000 young red-blooded American men just signed up to go to Florida State next semester.” Yeah, that’s surely entered the broadcasters’ hall of famous quotes.
Jenn traces her awesome body and looks to her East European genes; she is of Czech and Yugoslav blood and her hometown girl image to her upbringing. Jenn is savvy enough to tap into the power of the internet and her sites jennsterger.com and cowgirlnation.com are pretty well-maintained with regular updates, juicy pics, merchandise to sell and what have you.
Jenn is honest enough to own up that her boobies are fake. (http://acrosstheboard.blogspot.com/2005/12/1-on-1-with-jenn-sterger-exclusive.html). Not that her legions of fans seem to mind. They are more taken in by her in-your-face sauciness and her pert looks. Last heard she was studying to become a lawyer and is majoring in psychology and criminology.
Jenn Sterger needs real friends
Our cowgirl Jenn apparently values the good ol’ virtues such as true friendship. She can be seen here http://youtube.com/watch?v=4CA9iydF4xM&m.... Lamenting the need for true friends in her life and how she wishes to stay away from those who talk behind her back. Well, I too love to talk behind her back and about her back, but mostly complimentary stuff and the main reason is that this all-American beauty appears to be quite grounded. After a dream break when a 2 second exposure on national television catapulted her to the pages of Playboy and Maxim, Jenn Sterger has managed to keep the tempo going and is today one of the most googled babes around. She calls herself brutally honest and a no B.S girl on her blog http://jennifersterger.blogspot.com/ and we are ready to go by her own assessment. If her entries are not being ghosted our Jenn is a mean wordsmith who knows what she is talking about.
Jennifer Sterger looking for likeminded Cowgirls
A lot has been happening with our feisty cheerleader who made it BIG. Jenny’s fans can ogle at her at their own leisure; she has added four new never before seen galleries to her site. Checking out these never seen before pics seems just the thing to do on a lazy afternoon when mom’s taking a siesta. This pretty bod has a shrewd brain running the show, Jennifer has partnered some local firms for creating unique merchandize that her fans can purchase. The items, which are handy gift ideas, include mousepads, posters, T-shirts, etc all with our girl Jen featuring somewhere on them. Finally, female college students who think they have the cowgirl spirit in them can send their pics and bio to Jenny and if they pass muster they could end up being featured on CowGirlNation.com. It seems like a great opportunity for future models to try and break into the hallowed world of print and TV modeling. So, gals only serious aspirants need apply.
Jennifer Sterger loses a wager
Jennifer Sterger, the Florida beauty of Czech and Yugoslav ancestry, has stated that she regrets betting against Chuck Amato and his boys. This self-confessed sports freak and journalist had a not-very-happy Thursday night as she watched the Noles lose and in the process she lost a wager with her friends. This die-hard Noles supporter had bet on her team winning. She mentions that she ended up in Gainesville at the Ben Hill Griffin Stadium because of losing the wager. However, much as her friends tried to get her to wear orange and blue and do the "Gator Growl", she did not budge. Instead she turned up in all black - in proper mourning. She found her spirits lifted though with the comedy act of Gabriel Iglesias, who she thought looked cute in his Hawaiian shirt. Gabriel's take on college night life and his expertise with mimicking sounds pleased Ms Sterger.
Another thing that found favor with our Jenny was the warmth and respect shown to Quarterback Chris Leak who she considers to be an out and out team man. The way in which the players managed to get the crowd behind them in their rendition of "We Are the Boys from Old Florida" found favor with the Maxim babe.
Jennifer on her type of man - part 1
This FSU babe and self-confessed sports fan sure knows her mind when it comes to men. She is not afraid to speak out her mind on what her "Mr. Right" should not be like. Her list of no-no's includes the following and probably disqualifies half of the eligible American men and almost all Indians.
Mama's boys: Apparently, her top dislike in the list. Jennifer cannot stand guys who still need permission from their moms to stay out late.
The lookers with no brains: According to Jennifer, these types are best viewed like a Britney Spears video - with the mute on.
The down and outs - Only in their minds though, the guys who wallow in self pity and incredibly find dates to give them solace.
The hoity-toity one - Born to rich parents and full of themselves.
The nutcase - A date with this guy will expose you to your darkest fears even if you don't have any. The neurotics are just an advanced version of her first peeve, the mama's boys.
The serial daters: Likening them to an opinion (everyone has one, get it), she says that these types are suave and evil and so smart that they can carry on for a lifetime flitting from one girl to another.
This girl is a beauty with brains alright. I mean we all cheer our favorite teams and we love their mascots; but what if the real versions of the mascots turn up. Would you have the desire to get photographed with a diamondback around your neck or perhaps astride a Bengal Tiger? Getting photographed clutching a bolt of lightening is not only impossible but also a very real hazard to your life. Our girl did spend some quality time with live mascots though - Devil Rays. They are the Tampa Bay MLBaseball mascots and Jennifer discovered them to be a very friendly lot more interested in fish than in the game.
