About Jennifer Hawkins
When 21-year-old Jennifer Hawkins heard her name announced as the new Miss Universe 2004 in front of a full-capacity audience in Quito, Ecuador on June 1, the self-described "vivacious" former legal secretary says, "I was caught completely off guard!"
Statuesque Jennifer is the youngest of four children and was raised by her parents, Gail and Robert, in Newcastle, Australia. She has been a dancer since the age of five. In 2001 she was chosen as the winner of a national dance competition by a panel of judges, the audience and her peers.
In the years that followed, Jennifer has turned her 'agility' on the stage into 'ability' on a surfboard! She says she loves all water sports, especially surfing and wakeboarding and heads to the beaches of the Gold Coast whenever she can. Working as a model for the past two years, Jennifer had hoped to utilise her contacts and experience from the industry to leverage a position in television.
This dream became a reality when, in January 2005, she was announced as the newest reporter on The Great Outdoors. Continuing the crusade of her predecessors, as Miss Universe 2004, Jennifer uses her title to increase awareness about HIV/AIDS and the research needed to find a cure. She combines this role with her latest role as television presenter with The Great Outdoors.
