Jennifer had an unbelievable year in 07! Maybe the best rookie pro season ever?
Her and Sonia are officially the top short figure pros in the World.
We'll see her on stage in one week at the 2008 Ms Figure International. :cool:
She turned pro at her second show in 07. Overall at the NPC Junior Nationals (http://contests.ironmanmagazine.com/index.cfm?go2=contests_year&ContestYearID=762)...
http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c155/coconutsandapples/NEW/jen1.jpg
She went on to qualify for the Ms Figure Olympia at her very first pro show, the IFBB New York Pro (http://contests.ironmanmagazine.com/index.cfm?go2=contests_year&ContestYearID=767).
Next up was the IFBB Motor City Pro in which she took 1st place!...

If Gina doesn't win the Arnold next week, it will be Jennifer. With V-Dub's retirement, I honestly see Jenn as the "new face" of pro figure. I knew for a fact as soon as she got her pro card, that she would have a good pro career. But I didn't see all of this coming so fast! And the best part about it is...she's got a level head on her. She knows she's blessed and doesn't take life for granted. Instead she strives for improvement day in and day out. Can't wait to see what she brings to the table next weekend. I have a good feeling she's gonna blow a lot of people away in her Arnold debut! :respect:

From Hardbody News:
Last weekend, IFBB Pro Figure competitor Jennifer Gates (http://www.jenngates.com/) was in Pittsburgh working her sponsor’s booth. Jen made the most of her trip and did a photo shoot with J.M. Manion (http://jmmanion.com/). J.M. mixed things up a bit and paid homage to the movie Underworld. Check out a couple photos of Jen courtesy of J.M.

Well...I can tell you all straight up that Jenn's ready for the Olympia in a few months. I comment on one of her recent pics on her MySpace page about whether she was looking at a mirror or envisioning a future major title (Arnold or Olympia). And she told me..."I'm planning on the title for the O' baby!!!!" :)
I warning everyone right now, Jenn is gonna be hard to beat. And she is ON, a new champion will be crowned. I bet my life on it; that's how confident I am of her.:bowdown:
Maybe it's the Jennifer fan in me talking...or I've had WAY too much Vault soda to drink! LOL...:cool:

I told Kate aka (KMS) the other night after seeing Jenn before she left for the Olympia that she was going to win or not place well at all. She was brave enough to change her look from a body that had placed 2nd at the AC. Most wouldn't have changed a formula like that one for anything! Way to go JENN! And like many have said Jenn is real. Just a midwest girl with small town roots. It's what we here call a Hooiser.

Yes, Jenn is 5'1" barely and she is a powerful little package:o...when I dropped her off at the airport to head to Vegas she was a whopping 108 lbs...thats before she dropped any water! Jenn is one of my best buds and I am tickled pink that she won---she has been working hard. I am proud of your girlie-you make a beautiful Ms. O!

WOW!!!!
First off thanks to every single person, friend, and fellow competitor on this board!!! All of your kindness and compliments are so greatly appreciated!! I am feeling a very blessed Mama right now!!!! It all means so much!!
:bowdown::bowdown:
Secondly, WOW!!! I am still trying to let all of this sink in right now. I have been so super busy in Vegas and just flew out today!! Thank you, thank you to all of my friends and family!! I am still trying to respond to all texts, emails, and phone calls!!!! This was a wonderful weekend for me....as well as tiring and emotional!! During Friday's prejudge there was a horrible tragedy that really struck a cord with me.....and it really made me stop and think and remember how great life really is and how short it can be. Steve Stone's family is in my thoughts and prayers!!! It was a very emotional day on Friday!!! All of my fellow competitors are awesome and we all stuck together through this twilight zone styled day!!!
I am in L.A. now getting ready to try to rest up for a shoot tomorrow!! Then home on Wednesday to my family!! My kiddos miss me....and I miss them...TREMENDOUSLY!!
Again, thanks to you all!!!!
XOXO,
Jenn

Steve Wennerstrom:
Now, Indiana's Jennifer Gates has stepped up to claim the sixth Ms. O figure title in rapid fashion.
But here's the kicker. Davana Medina was 5-7, 130 pounds. Jenny Lynn was smaller at 5-5, 125 pounds. But Gates is markedly more diminutive by comparison to her predecessors at a compact 5-1, 110 pounds.
Regardless of her size, Gates showed a solid level of physical balance and sound structure in terms of the judges' current desire for what they she in a champion at the highest level. And she got the nod over a large field that was loaded with very attractive and physically beautiful women.
For Gates, her ascent to the Olympia title was rapid, once she entered the pro ranks. In 2006 Gates wasn't even on the radar as a pro. In fact, Gates began her competitive efforts as a bodybuilder winning the 2001 NPC Indiana overall title. By 2004 she had made the switch to Figure contests and in 2007 she won the overall NPC Junior National Figure title to qualify for the pro ranks. But she was only just getting started. She made her debut at the 2007 New York Pro Figure show and placed third (a finish that qualified her for the Ms. Olympia). She then quickly entered the Motor City Pro Figure event and won. With a full head of steam she entered the Ms. Olympia last year and finished fourth - a great rookie year by anyone's estimation.
In March of this year, Gates picked up where she left off in 2007 by placing second at the Ms. International in March. Then with a victory at the recent Atlantic City Pro Figure just two weeks before the Ms. O, it was stated in the Muscular Development Atlantic City coverage that after winning that event, "..........she has shown that she is ready to chase down Gina Aliotti, Sonia Adcock and any other challengers who might have designs on a top-three placing at the Ms. O in two weeks". And that's exactly what she did in no uncertain terms.

Jenn is shooting with FLEX - a similar type shoot to the one we saw of Pauline of "The women are back" with Pavel. Should be an awesome feature.
