“Sugar”, now 29, adopted the fun and flirty nickname as a waitress in a 50s diner. After starring in 4 episodes of Gilmore Girls, Jessica continued to act in small parts on TV and in movies. But she’s mostly now known as a pin-up model! Check out some of the photos here.

Jessica Kiper lives in Brooklyn, NY and is described by friends as a “free-spirit”. There’s a great interview with Jessica on EW.com here.

    OMG I thought she looked familiar but then I just shrugged it off as “no it’s just that sweet girl next door look she’s got going for her.” She was my favorite before but now that I know who she really is I’m hoping she goes all the way.

  3. thx Sugar for your 2008 Christmas present for all of disillusioned. You lost on “Survivor” – but you won the hearts of everyone. Your dad would have been proud. cs

    actually I have a question. Sugar wore a necklace
    with a pendant that looked like the insert for a 33 RPM record. Does anybody know ? thanx ty

  5. Bryant Smith says:

    I always thought Bob was a phony. He wouldn’t even have been in the final except for Sugar and he didn’t even acknowledge her. He should have given her the $100,000. Sugar, you were great!
