Brightside Girl Crush: Jesse Lee Denning

This young lady has been catching my eye for awhile! Her gorgeous face and body has been gracing covers of magazines, CD's, and calendars for years... and I am always anticipating to see her next move! Her driven attitude and care-free style lingers off of her, leaving people no reason to wonder where all her successes come from. She is a woman you look up to, and admire... someone who knows what she has, and uses it to her full potential. There is something to be said about this one...
