Biography:
Jennifer Ellison born on May 1st, 1983 in the English city of Liverpool. Entertainment was in her blood from the
very beginning. When she was 2 years old, she was sitting on the counter at a fish 'n' chips restaurant and
screamed that one day she would be famous. At the age of 3, Jennifer began taking singing and dancing lessons.
Studying the arts, she became a dancer. She was so good that she won national championships for both ballet and
modern dancing in 1996 and 1997. This led to her snatching the coveted lead role in a ballet production, which
was performed before Princess Anne at Her Majesty's Theatre in London's West End.

Acting was always something she wanted to try. Since the age of 9, she had been writing letters to the producers
of the hit British soap opera Brookside to see if there were any roles for her. As expected, all her queries were
met with disappointment, but her parents were proud of her drive. In 1998, she was informed by her manager that
Brookside was holding auditions for a couple of 14-year-old girls who would portray sisters. Originally paired
with an actress with whom she had absolutely no resemblance, she was fortunate when the producers dismissed the
latter and matched her with Suzanne Collins. The two young actresses got the parts although Ellison was initially
signed on for only six episodes. Playing Emily Shadwick O'Leary, an untamable vixen with a wild streak, it didn't
take long for the producers to realize they had a genuine star on their hands.

Not only was she a fan favorite, but many guys tuned in just to get a glimpse of Jennifer. It came to a point
where there were always two piles of fan mail at the production office: one general Brookside pile and a Jennifer
Ellison pile. Thanks to her popularity, Jennifer stayed on the show for five years. Before her stint on the show
came to an end, she diversified her career by modeling. As a matter of fact, Ellison starred in the Marks &
Spencer "Relax At Home" lingerie line in 2002. In 2003, her character was killed off Brookside and she decided to
return to her performing roots and give pop music a try. Even though she was initially discouraged, she managed
to get a recording contract with East West.

Her first single, "Baby I Don't Care," is a new version of the 1989 Transvision Vamp classic and was launched
June 16th, 2003. To promote her musical career, she even sang before 60,000 people at the Southampton Road Show.
Her new single "Bye Bye Boy" was released November 24th, 2003. Because of her hectic schedule, especially since
she's set to appear in the film Hey Mr DJ and is currently shooting the upcoming Joel Schumacher movie, The
Phantom of the Opera, which is scheduled for release in 2004, an album is still forthcoming. She currently lives
in Liverpool and recently ended a two-year relationship with long-time boyfriend Tony Richardson, partly due to
his involvement in a gang feud.

Note:

She won the National Ballet & Modern Dance Championships in 1996 & 1997. She has one sister Gemma (born 1991)
Supports Everton Football Club
Voted sexiest blonde in the world by readers of Nuts magazine (2004).
