JENNIFER BARRETTA: Billiards
Name : Jennifer Barretta
Date of Birth : October 26, 1968
Place of Birth : Norristown PA.
Nickname: 9mm Barretta
Height : 5 feet 5 inches
Weight : 110 lbs
36-24-35

Jennifer Barretta is a Professional Billiards Champion and considered to be one of the best 9-Ball players in the world. A member of the WPBA since 2003, Jennifer can kick your butt in pool and look damn good doing it! (Player of the year on the Chesapeake Area Tour in 2003 for example)
We asked Jennifer how she keeps that amazing physique chalking a cue and racking a few balls. She casually answered that she does "some running and jumping on the side." We discovered later that Jen is BIG into fitness and was actually a Miss Philadelphia Fitness Champ in 1991! (We tend to ask a lot of dumb questions around here BTW. We normally don't post them.)
As if that wasn't enough, Jennifers' starring in the upcoming feature film, "9 Ball-The Movie", which is filming now and is scheduled for release early 2010! Jennifers' good friend Jeanette Lee (AKA The Black Widow) is also featured in the movie! You can watch the trailer below.
We saved the best for last! Jennifer Barretta has agreed to answer our readers questions here for ISUCKATGOLF! We'd love to say we beat her in a race to 9 and this was the bet, but we can't. Jens' just a down to earth-great gal and just said "sure" when we asked her. So thanks Jennifer! You're terrific!

Can you "get up" for a friendly game?
(Nov 09)
Hi Jennifer,
Love your pics and the new movie looks great.
My question is, being a professional and playing for big money with great competition, how do you “get up” to play a friendly game? Can you? I mean if you were playing one of your friends who could beat you on a given game, would that person need to be concerned that you weren’t really trying?
Bill
Hi Bill,
I always have the desire to play well and win! There's no such thing as a "friendly game", it's always war!
Jennifer
