About
Jentina was born in Woking to a Romani family, alongside 13 brothers and sisters. When she was 1 year old, her family moved to West Molesy, Surrey. At age 16 she had several illegal jobs in Miami, like working in Dixons and a barber shop. She got her first record deal at 19 years old.
In 2004, she released her debut single "Bad Ass Strippa", which topped the Box charts for a week, but sadly, this didn't translate into sales. The song was later parodied by another British female rapper, Lady Sovereign, and changed the song title to "Sad Arse Strippa". Soon, Jentina took revenche with her second single "French Kisses", being a more pop-oriented song. In 2005, she released her third and (so far) last single "Mysterious".
It seems that Jentina had dated The Prodigy-member Keith Flint.
In November 2007, Jentina got an advertisment deal with Wonderbra. She starred in an online commercial, which was a bit of a sexy version of Cadbury's drumming gorilla advert. In the Wonderbra advert, Jentina drummed to Phil Collins's classic "In The Air Tonight".
Several rumours state that Jentina is working on her second album. The rumoured titles were "Grace" and "Chinese Democracy", but none of these seemed to be the actual title.
