Jaime Pressly Bio

Jaime Pressly was born into a standard American family in the 70s – a middle-class family of Christian parents. Her parents were James Pressly who was a car salesman while her mother, Brenda Sue was a dance instructor. She was born to them on the 30th of July, 1977 in Kinston, North Carolina. However, for no apparent reasons, or perhaps a desire for a greener pasture, she and her family moved to Costa Mesa, California which placed her closer to launching multiple careers.

She did not spend a lot of time in California before she got her first modeling contract at the age of 14. She was chosen as a model for the cover of Teen Magazine and was made the spokesmodel for the International Cover Model Search. The consistency and opportunities that became available to her after making her modeling debut caused her to drop out of school at the age of 16 and move to Japan in fulfillment of a modeling contract. Due to her age and her parents’ lack of support, Jaime got herself legally emancipated from her parents.

It was a drastic action that was based on the confidence that her move would be successful and she would make a career out of it. Well, it turned out to be right as she got her chance to pivot to acting through the offer of a role as Violet in Poison Ivy: The New Seduction in 1997. Jaime Pressly continued on the acting path, starring in shows like Push, Jack and Jill, and Mortal Kombat: Conquest.

Having spent a long time in the modeling industry, modeling for several fashion brands, Jaime took advantage of her knowledge of the industry and created her own lingerie line, J’Aime, which was launched in 2003.

One of the biggest roles in her acting career came two years after she launched her line. She was cast as Joy Turner on the popular NBC sitcom, My Name is Earl. The show and her performances won her an Emmy award from two nominations.
