May 30,
1983) is an English

Career
Modelling and magazine appearances
Ellison is currently featured in
Maxim magazine's
Girls of Maxim
gallery. She has appeared regularly in almost all of the mainstream British "
lads' magazines" over the last five years, though her first appearance was in
1999 in a sexually suggestive shoot for FHM at the age of just 16, under the heading "
Jailbait". Recently, Ellison took over a contract with
lingerie giant Ultimo for its "Young Attitude" line from fellow model
Jordan barely two months after she'd been signed on. Though Ultimo boss Michelle More had chosen Jordan for being "sexy, fun and outgoing," she later changed her mind, stating, "Jordan was just the wrong choice for [us]. Jennifer is a far better option and far classier." In 2005 Ellison was voted "world's sexiest blonde" by readers of the UK magazine,
Nuts, beating model Victoria Silvstedt, who came second, and pop superstar Britney Spears, who was voted third. Ellison is also a regular in the yearly FHM "100 Sexiest Women in the World" feature. She first appeared in 2003 at number 50, then at number 40 in 2004, and by 2005 she was at number 23. In FHM's 2006 poll, Ellison was number 21. Jennifer's most distinctive attributes must be her very large 32DD breasts made all the bigger by her small frame these are often commented upon in the tabloid press.. In a 2008 interview in The Times Ellison mentioned that she hadn't modelled for any lad's mag's in over three years but continued to be featured in them using old photo shoots.
