At the Hawaiian Tropic contest in [[Las Vegas metropolitan area|Las Vegas]], she was talking to photographer [[Arny Freytag]]. Rovero suggested that the beautiful countryside in [[Venezuela]] would be a nice place for a Hawaiian Tropic shoot. She was familiar with the country because her father, Raimundo, was a citizen and lived there. Freytag, besides being a respected swimsuit photographer, had taken over 100 [[centerfold]] photos for ''Playboy'' since 1975. Freytag suggested that he take pictures of ''her'' in Venezuela.<ref name=FTU> [http://www.jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/061199/ent_S0611Pla.html Florida Times-Union: June 11, 1999-Playboy gives local woman national exposure by Dan Macdonald]</ref> ==Playboy== The pictures were taken and forwarded to ''Playboy''. The magazine requested a second test shoot, which was provided. On Independence Day in 1998, Rovero met publisher [[Hugh Hefner]] at [[The Playboy Mansion]]. Obviously, the meeting went well.<ref name=FTU /> Her centerfold spread was shot in October, 1998 in California and contained 20-pictures. Rovero had no objections to nudity. Her mother, Leslie, was quoted that she raised both her daughters to be open minded about such things. The only real problem came when the photographers asked her to pose with a cat. Rovero has a feline allergy, and within 30 minutes her face was red and puffy, causing the session to be canceled.<ref name=FTU /> Playmate of the Month required a two-year contract with the magazine. ==Personal== Rovero called herself [[Forrest Gump (character)|Forrest Gump]] because she kept finding herself in interesting situations.<ref name=FTU /> For a while, Rovero dated [[Fred Durst]], front man for the band [[Limp Bizkit]] (both originally from [[Jacksonville, Florida]]).<ref name=FTU /> According to CNN reports, Jennifer was a photographer working for [[Paris Hilton]] in 2010. She attended the Soccer World Cup in South Africa with Hilton where Jennifer stepped outside the stadium to smoke a marijuana cigarette. Consequently, she was arrested and pled guilty to the charge. ==References== {{Reflist}} ==External links== * [http://www.ahollywoodnews.com/jennifer-rovero-wiki Jennifer Rovero]'s Latest News Up dates *[http://www.jenniferrovero.com Jennifer Rovero's personal website] *{{playmate|1999|7}} *{{imdb|0746297|Jennifer Rovero}} {{Playmates of 1999}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Rovero, Jennifer}} [[Category:1978 births]] [[Category:Living people]] [[Category:American actors]] [[Category:People from Austin, Texas]] [[Category:Playboy Playmates (1990–1999)]] [[Category:People from Jacksonville, Florida]]'
