	Athletes - Jennifer Vasquez

Jennifer Roxanne Vasquez (born on April 8, 1978 in Houston, Texas) is most widely known for being a contestant on the reality show Big Brother 6, which aired on CBS in 2005. To be on the show, she took a break from being a cheerleader with the Dallas Desperados Dancers of the Arena Football League. Subsequent to the show, she obtained a small acting role in the film Idiocracy, a comedy to be released in 2006.

Big Brother 6

Jennifer was one of fourteen Big Brother 6 contestants confined in a house together, with the objective of outlasting one another. At the beginning of each week, there was a new Head of Household(HoH) determined, who was able to nominate other members for removal at the end of the week. After each nomination, a vote was held amongst contestants to select one nominee to remove. In this, the sixth season of the show, known as the Summer of Secrets, each contestant had a secret partner, that they knew before the show, who would work together on the show. Jennifer's secret partner was April Lewis. If the two partners had made it to the end, the prize money would have been $1,000,000.

Jennifer became HoH during Week 7 after winning the HoH competition "Pressure Cooker". During the competition, she promised newly-returned houseguest Kaysar Ridha that she would nominate two people from her own alliance in an attempt to "backdoor" James. She also promised Kaysar that she would never nominate him at any time. Jennifer later mocked her agreement with Kaysar with her fellow alliance members Maggie Ausburn, Beau Beasley, April Lewis, and Ivette Corredero.

At the nomination ceremony, Jennifer changed her mind on what she committed to do with Kaysar and nominated two people from his alliance, Rachel Plencner and Janelle Pierzina. She explained to Kaysar that she could not nominate two people who were close friends from her own team. Soon afterwards, many of Jennifer's alliance members came up with the idea to backdoor Kaysar instead of James. When Rachel won the Power of Veto competition and took herself out of the nomination chair, Jennifer nominated Kaysar in her place, going againt both parts of her pact. Kaysar was then evicted from the house by a unanimous vote, making Jennifer a huge target with the remainder of Kaysar's alliance.

Janelle won the HoH competition in Week 8 and nominated Jennifer and Maggie. Jennifer was eliminated on day 49.

Personal life

She was raised in, and continues to reside in Plano, Texas (as of 2005). She attended Plano Senior High School, and then Baylor University in Waco, Texas. It was during this time, that Jennifer became a member of the same sorority that April Lewis joined (though they attended different institutions). Later on, this helped lead to a friendship (being sorority sisters), which in turn caused them to be "secret partners" on Big Brother 6.
