From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Janelle Marie Pierzina (born January 10, 1980), also credited as Janelle Perzina, was a contestant on the sixth season of the American version of the CBS reality show Big Brother, where she has been seen by well over 8 million viewers at a time.
Her home is in Miami Beach, Florida. She is originally from Grand Rapids, Minnesota. Janelle was "Head of Household" on weeks 8 and 10 and won the 2nd America's Choice as well as the 3rd America's Choice. The prizes for those were a phone call from prior contestant and love interest Micheal and a visit to the set of Two and a Half Men, respectively.
Early career
Prior to Big Brother Janelle was an actress and model, with most credits under the spelling "Perzina" not "Pierzina" (with the extra "i").
She modeled and did an extended interview for Xposed magazine. As well, she was named as a SBK World Superbike Calendar Girl by FastDates.com. The most famous publisher of her photos was Playboy, which had Janelle do a photoshoot, which they used in their April/May 2005 Lingerie Special Edition, under the name of Elle Brenna.
Also prior to Big Brother, she was a part of a travel series called Nautical Angels. She was in the pilot for the show. But the pilot and series were never picked up by a broadcaster. The show featured three women ("angels"), who travelled to various tourist destinations, examining the history, culture, and activities of each location. Janelle was the "action angel", trying out different activities of the area. In the pilot, the girls travelled Southeast Asia. Although she did appear in the pilot, so far, the only video of it, appears on the production company's web site, not on TV.
She also had a bit part in the movie Bruce Almighty, which was cut signficantly, but not entirely. As well she appeared briefly as a non-speaking extra in Friends.
Personal life
It was revealed by the The Smoking Gun that just before Pierzine began her run on "Big Brother" she responded to a bench warrant for her arrest that she had been avoiding. She pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor charge of petty theft for stealing merchandise. It was also revealed she had a previous misdemeanor driving while intoxicated conviction.
