Jenn Sterger: Is Former Jets Employee Looking for Money from Favre Scandal?
Jenn Sterger tells Good Morning America she never wanted money
Jenn Sterger might be a lot of things, but a Gold Digger isn’t one of them.
At least that’s what she’s telling Good Morning America.
The former Jets employee who was allegedly sexually harassed by Brett Favre is setting the record straight about the incident and what she hoped to get out of it.
As the Associated Press writes, Sterger tell George Stephanopolous that she never wanted money. She only wanted to do her job.
The Associated Press writes:
“I haven’t made a dime off anything in this whole situation,” Jenn Sterger said in the interview that will air on “Good Morning America” on Tuesday and Wednesday and “Nightline” on Tuesday night. “Not from the pictures. Not from Favre. I never wanted to sue anyone. That was never an intention of mine. I’m not a gold-digger. The only way I wanted to make my money this whole time was to just have a job.”

You’d have a tough time thinking that Sterger is in this for money. From the moment this all went down she has been very quiet. You can usually tell who’s in for the money and who’s the victim. Sterger avoided the cavalcade of press tours and pictorials but rather kept a low profile.
In our cynical view of the world we have a hard time believe that women who are involved with athletes are ever anything more than scorned. Especially given the fact that Sterger is easy on the eyes, we tend to dismiss the idea that she wasn’t complicit.
But perhaps: she actually wasn’t interested in being a mistress, but rather just a woman who wanted to do well at her job.
The real sadness in this case is that Sterger now has the sort of stigma that makes her unemployable in the NFL. However Favre, who sent lewd photos to woman and took a run at every lady who was in his line of vision, will continue to receive praise from the NFL for years to come.
Hell, maybe she should have went after the money.

The Lonesome Ballad Of Jenn Sterger
Gather round people, wherever you roam, and hear this tale of boob jobs and woe: of a small town girl in a NY Jets world, who only wanted her own TV show. Through heartbreak and penis sexts she persevered, with nary an interview in sight. Here's the lonesome ballad of Jenn Sterger, brings tears to a grown man's eyes: "She obviously got a lot of mileage out of the implants, and it became a problem, professionally and personally. She wanted to be seen as Jenn, not as a chest."
Sterger's former manager, Phil Reese, sat down for an exclusive interview with the Post today, in which he recounts the behind-the-scenes tale of Sterger, the former Jets in-house sideline reporter who was embroiled in a sext scandal with Brett Favre all fall. Reese paints a portrait of a charismatic, ambitious girl who was plucked form obscurity when a TV camera noticed her, um, "silicone 34Ds" at a Florida State-University of Miami football game in 2005. The Jets created the "game-day hostess" position just for her, which entailed wearing "cleavage-baring jerseys while reporting feature spots from the sidelines."
But Sterger grew tired of being thought of as only "tits on a stick." She wrote in a Cosmopolitan magazine article, "My boobs were not only the first thing some producers saw. They were also the only thing." She told Reese she wanted to get rid of them, and had ambitions to have her own TV show. Then, the Favre scandal, and the Deadspin story which blew it up, happened, derailing all her plans. Reese advised her not to do any interviews, and alleged turned down $300,000 worth of offers for appearances with porn stars and such: "Everyone said Jenn was in it for the exposure and the money. I thought, if she doesn't do any interviews and take any undignified deals, she can't be viewed like that."
In the end, the NFL waffled on the investigation into the sexual harassment claims, Favre was only fined $50,000 and quietly retired at the end of last season, and Sterger lost her job on the Versus network for bad ratings. She and Reese aren't working together, and she's suing him for the "Sterger materials". She's also given her first interview since the scandal broke to Good Morning America; the two-part sitdown is set to air this Tuesday and Wednesday. A source alleges to the Post that in exchange, the network agreed to hook Sterger up with a TV job. But fun fact: Sterger now lives in Brooklyn! And is officially out of work! She's just like us! Maybe she's even a reader!
