  • Born: 1983

  • Best Known As: The "Facebook Princess" from Florida State

Florida State University student Jenn Sterger parlayed two seconds of national TV time into years of Internet fame. After she and two friends were featured in a bleacher shot of the FSU-Miami football game on 5 September 2005, announcer Brent Musberger commented that "15,000 young red-blooded American men just signed up to go to Florida State next semester." Some of those young men found her in bikini photos on the web portal Facebook, sent the link to friends, and Sterger was soon the online embodiment of the concupiscent co-ed. Sterger embraced her fame, posing for Maxim and Playboy magazines in 2006. That same year she began writing a regular column for the website Sports Illustrated on Campus. She joined the NFL's New York Jets in 2008 as a host for the team's local game broadcasts.

Sterger is nicknamed the Facebook Princess, and also the "FSU Cowgirl" for her sartorial combinations of minimalist tops and cowboy hats... Sterger's friend Chrystal Durnan appeared in many of her Florida State photos.
