Introduction
Who says that pretty women have no place in sports? Pretty women have every right that men have to be a part of whatever subset of society they want. Pretty rocket-scientists? Fine. Pretty neurosurgeons? Totally ok. Pretty racecar drivers? Done. Pretty police women, fire women—all things that pretty women should be able to.
Success at ESPN
Andrews joined ESPN in May 2004 as a reporter for the network's National Hockey League coverage. Since the 2004 season, Andrews has served as a reporter for the ESPN College Football Saturday telecast, the Saturday Primetime college basketball game and Big Ten college basketball coverage. In 2005, she added Major League Baseball sideline reporting to her duties. She also provides reports and features on Great Outdoor Games coverage.
Before Covering Hockey
Andrews graduated from the University of Florida with a degree in telecommunications in 2000. While there she was a member of the Zeta Tau Alpha sorority. Andrews was also a member of the Dazzlers, the Gator basketball dance team, from 1997-2000.
America's Sexiest Sportscaster
Playboy magazine ranked her in 2007 as "America's Sexiest Sportscaster," beating out Lindsay Soto and Krista Voda. Andrews garnered almost 40% of the vote from the user-determined contest. The most popular video montage of Andrews on YouTube has been viewed over one million times.
Dress Controversy
In August 2008, Peoria Journal Star columnist Mike Nadel wrote that ESPN sideline reporter Erin Andrews dressed and acted like a "sexpot" in the Chicago Cubs clubhouse, and the world — sports fans, journalists, the blogosphere and beyond — responded in force. The ensuing firestorm has spurred columns calling Nadel "reckless, in search of cheap fame, a caveman, resentful of women, crusty and out of touch." We agree, and thanks to Mike, Erin Andrews name is now known by more people.
Erin Andrews Nude Video Controversy
In July 2009, ESPN Sports Reporter Erin Andrews was caught up in a bit of a scandal when a video featuring her walking around a hotel room naked had surfaced online. The nude video was also being shopped around to the highest bidder, with hackers taking advantage of the situation by creating links to the video that contained Trojan viruses. Both Andrews' lawyers as well as ESPN worked quickly to remove the nude online video and find out who was responsible.
