Liz Friedman

Newcomer Liz Friedman joins the staff as tattoo artist Kat Von D’s shop manager in the fourth season of TLC’s LA Ink. Her talent in bringing humor, sexiness and sarcasm to this show will bring a sharp new edge to Hollywood.

School was never a priority for her and she accelerated to an early high school graduation. One semester at college proved to be enough and she switched directions to pursue a career in business. After a series of jobs as a loan officer Friedman opened her own wholesale mortgage business at the age of 21 ― which she still owns and operates.

Though Friedman has always stayed close to her Los Angeles home and family she recently spent a summer traveling through Japan, Greece and France. To take advantage of the cuisine she enjoyed on her travels, she will spend an occasional Sunday night hosting “friends and family” dinners, where a huge feast of authentic food from one particular country is prepared. Once, she even opened a can of cold spaghetti for Italian night!

Liz currently resides in the Hollywood Hills where she enjoys hiking with her golden retriever Chloe and Madeline, a sweet-faced (and sometimes stubborn) basset hound.

Bobbi Jo

An extraordinary beauty, Bobbi Jo exploded onto the modeling scene as a lead in the Young Buck music video for the single “I know U Want Me,” featuring Jazze Pha. As a model/actress, she has since been recognized by artists and casting directors as a woman who definitely stands out above the rest. Since appearing in the video, it has been a non-stop grind for this charismatic, blue-eyed beauty, who has since been spotlighted in magazines such as XXL Magazine, Source Magazine, and Black Men Magazine, modeling Gucci and Saks Fifth Avenue with Trey Songz. Known as the 2008 face for Coogi Clothing’s Women’s Line re-launch, Bobbi has also been in music videos for Wyclef, Lloyd Banks, Ray J, and Prodigy of Mob Deep. She’s received especially large notoriety for her role as 50 Cent’s Baby Mother in his video “I Get Money,” and her role as a Matrix Fighter in his “Ok, You’re Right” video.

Raised in Brooklyn, New York by a single mother, Bobbi had to grow up quickly and learn how to take care of herself at an early age. Spending 10 years of her youth in foster care, she moved around a lot during her younger years. It is particularly because of her rough upbringing that she strives to succeed in whatever she does. At the same time, she refuses to compromise her integrity and her standards. With a Bachelors Degree in Media and Communication and an English minor from SUNY Old Westbury College in Long Island, NY, Bobbi Jo definitely believes that education is just as important as being noticed in the entertainment industry. She does not consider modeling as a last resort.

In an industry where many models are willing to do whatever it takes to get ahead, Bobbi Jo insists that one must be selective in choosing modeling jobs. There have been several instances where she has been offered a project, but has chosen to politely decline because the material wasn’t complimentary to her image. “It is important to see the bigger picture,” she states.

When all is said and done, Bobbi Jo’s main objective, in addition to advancing her budding acting career, is to obtain major make-up line, hair product, and clothing line campaigns. Under her belt she currently has a lead role as “Denise” in the Spike Lee directed 10th Anniversary Rocawear commercial, along with a lead role in The JBS Prive “Urban Beauty Hair” commercial. JBS (Jinny Beauty Supply) is a multi-million dollar company and leader in the ethnic beauty industry, with distribution centers in Chicago, Atlanta, Miami and Dallas. The commercial aired on a variety of major television networks, including ABC, NBC, FOX, CW, and Comcast affiliates ranging from BET, MTV, VH-1, BRAVO and Entertainment Television, to name a few.

You may have seen Bobbi Jo as Rip the Runway’s First Professional Winner of BET’s Model Mission Show, or caught her feature in “Notorious” in the director’s cut. She also played feature role in “The Perfect Age of Rock and Roll” with Taryn Manning and Kevin Zegers.

Bobbi’s compassion is what stands out most about her. She hopes to one day play a major role in changing the lives of foster care children by investing time in her community, and being a positive female role model for younger girls who have similar goals.

Be on the lookout for Bobbi Jo’s Feature in “Sex in the City 2”, “Wall Street 2”, and as the face of Outré Hair Line’s 2010 hair packaging campaign.
