Bonnie-Jill Laflin was born 15 March 1976 in San Francisco, California. Laftin owes her beauty to a German-Irish father and a mother of Apache Indian, Spanish and Hawaiian descent.

So what does a tomboy who grows up wearing sports jerseys and spends her free time watching football games on television, end up doing when she grows up????

Bonnie-Jill Laflin is one of the most successful and sexiest professional cheerleaders the entire world of sports has ever produced...So much so, that she is probably one of the very few people to be presented with a Superbowl ring (San Francisco 49ers 1994-95) and three NBA Championship rings (L.A. Lakers 1999-00, 2000-01, 2001-02) for her extensive work assisting the general manager and the scouts during the NBA draft. Recently voted as one of FHM's "Most Eligible," the athletic beauty is combining the two loves in her life...fashion and sports. Bonnie-Jill is the founder of the hottest new clothing line to be sweeping the NBA, Double Play Sportswear, and is pursuing her dream as a sportscaster for Sporting News Radio and KCAL 9 (CBS' sister station in Los Angeles) as a correspondent.

Bonnie-Jill's big break came just before her 18th birthday, when she was selected to the Golden State Warriors' cheerleading squad - being named in her first year by the NBA as Cheerleader of the Year. A year later, Bonnie-Jill was accepted to the San Francisco 49ers Goldrush Cheerleading squad, earning that season her most prized possession, a Superbowl ring. For the 1996-97 football season, Bonnie-Jill was one of 1,300 girls vying for one of only 13 available spots on "America's Sweethearts", otherwise known as the Dallas Cowboys cheerleading team - an intense two-week competition and tryouts - eventually becoming a member of the renowned squad. Becoming a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader has helped the beauty get modeling jobs for swimsuit calendars that eventually got her noticed by casting agents and producers.

Bonnie-Jill landed a recurring role on Baywatch after the show's casting director spotted her layouts in a calendar. However, Laflin is familiar to most television viewers who may not be sports fans from her memorable four episode guest appearances on Ally McBeal , playing "Billy's" dream girl. Bonnie-Jill had also made guest appearances on Nash Bridges and The Jaime Foxx Show .

A trained dancer, Bonnie-Jill had been featured in music videos for artists such as Lou Bega ("Mambo Mambo" & "Tricky Tricky"), Creed ("What If") and Little Texas ("God Bless Texas"). Frederick's of Hollywood knew they had struck gold when Bonnie-Jill Laflin walked through their door and they have been using her as one of their own sexy sirens ever since. The pretty face and heavenly body of this former Miss Dallas-Fort Worth have also launched Bonnie-Jill into the advertising world - having been featured in Nike, Wrangler, Fritos, Carl's Jr., Coors, Miller Genuine Draft and Budweiser ads. The beauty has also been featured in numerous publications, including FHM, STUN!, Razor, OYE and Controversy magazines.

A native of San Francisco, Bonnie-Jill currently resides in the Los Angeles area. In her spare time, which does not amount to much these days, she prefers horseback riding, boxing, rollerblading, and running. The aspiring sportscaster also follows the NFL, NBA and MLB daily stats as well as her racehorses (Lil' Miss Hollywood and Dancin' Deputy) - about the only remnants left from her tomboy days.
