You are going to want to get caught in her web and be at the mercy of whatever she wants to do to you. Read on to find out more about Jeanette Lee.
Before Iggy Azalea was making hit songs named after them and before Scarlet Johansson was making nerd boy wet dreams come true, there was another O.G. black widow out there named Jeanette Lee.
She knows how to handle a stick.
Born in Brooklyn, (STAND UP!) New York, Jeanette Lee started hustling the pool tables in 1989, a year when some of our readers were not even born yet.
Nicknamed the “Black Widow” by fans, friends, and opponents she beat, the nickname refers to the juxtaposition of Lee’s sweet demeanor with her insatiable appetite to not only beat opponents but fully dominate them. Many even went as far as to say the Korean pool player did the closest thing to “eating alive” her opponents as possible on a pool table.
The last time we saw an stare this intense was on Animal Planet during shark week.
This nickname paired with Lee’s more than willingness to embrace it has led her to become one of the top pool players ever in women’s professional billiards. Clad in her trademark black colored and often leather wardrobe, she was consistently ranked number one throughout her career in the 1990’s by the Women’s Professional Billiard Association. She was even the WPBA Sportsperson of the Year in 1998, and even took a gold medal at the 2001 World Games in Akita, Japan.
Jeanette Lee made a game where you hit a bunch of balls around with a stick sexy, but more importantly showed that a women could hang in an often male dominated sport. Here’s to Jeanette Lee the Black Widow we would love to have break our balls anytime.
Normally we would complain that sitting on our table damages the felt, but we are going to let it slide this time.
Even away from the tables she has her stick ready and intensity at 100%.
That kid never stood a chance. There is no point in crying to dad about it now.
If this pool thing ever goes sour we bet with the way she fills out a leather outfit she could definitely find work dominating in some other activities..
Honestly not even sure if we are aroused or terrified of trying to get through those doors. Maybe both. Fear boner.
There are subtler ways of letting us know you are married Jeannette. We get the hint.
Finally a reason to subscribe to ESPN 5.
And you thought her leather outfit was distracting…
Yeah.. like all those cameras there are to film some balls being knocked around. SUUUURE.
We would let her play with our sticks and balls anytime.
