Think about every negative
in your life, every reason that you have not to succeed. Think of every barrier
that's in your way right this moment. I guarantee you everything you thought of,
that's gonna be the reason you succeed.

-Jemele speaking at Ted
Talks. 
Co-host of ESPN's weekday
statistics based sports discussion program "His & hers", <a href="/biography/jemele-hill">Jemele
Juanita Hill</a> was a classic tomboy while growing up. She was not shy to play sports
with the boys in her neighborhood.

Born on December 21, 1975,
in Detroit Michigan, U.S.A, Jemele Hill is a perfect characterization of all
the human emotions: happy, sad, afraid/surprised, and angry/disgusted. Her
tough growing up days may have made her a strong woman who can stand on what
she feels.

Anyway, she experienced many
pullbacks while growing up. Her parents had drug addiction issues. Moreover,
they were extremely poor. The family lived on food stamps. Plus, the family
could only sustain because her mother would do household jobs (cleaning,
washing, etc) at other people home.  In addition
to that, let's not even talk about inner-city problems.

Growing up in  a rough part of Detroit, Jemele  sill made it to the Michigan State University.
Her closed ones had never imagined that she will get into such prestigious university.

However, the things that
made difference in her tough growing up days were her love for sports and
writing including poverty.

Well, according to her,
every cloud has a silver lining. You wouldn't believe but her poverty helped
her. At that time in Detroit when she was in high school, there was this sort
of need and the city wide campaign to have more college bound students from
Detroit. The program had three stipulations which if a student fulfilled, the program
would play for the student tuition and fees in any college in Michigan, or they
would pay for a portion of the student cost if the subject leaves the state.

Amazingly, she met all the
stipulations (the student has to maintain 3.0 all time in high school, the
student had to have 90 percent of attendance and the student had to score at least
19 on the ACT) and got enrolled in the university to study journalism.

If you didn't know, her love
for writing and reading was also derived by her young day's struggles. Because she
was going through a tough upbringing, she started making her own reality by
writing. She says people can create their own reality via writing if they don't
like the world they are living in. Since an early age Jemele started writing
poems, stories, mii-novels and other interesting information, and making journals
of them. Later, all of her writing efforts translated into her working for
high-school newspaper.

And, her love for reading
was developed by a similar stance. Jemele would accompany her mother to others
house since the poor mother couldn't afford a babysitter.  And, while her mother would work, she would
read magazines and other materials in the sitting room of the house her mother
is working.

Before joining ESPN  and after graduation, she built an amazing
resume as general assignment writer for the Raleigh News & Observer (her
first official job), sports writer for Detroit Free Press (1999 to 2005,
covered Michigan State Football and Basketball, and the 2004 Olympics and the
NBA playoffs ), columnist for the Orlando Senitinel (2005 to 2006).

Jemele started working for
ESPN in 2006. His and Hers is a rebranded discussion show (based on statistics)
of the previous purely statistic show Numbers Never Lie. <a href="/biography/jemele-hill">Jemele Hall</a> was made a
co-host of the show in 2013 in an attempt to make the program more discussion
based then previous "hard analytics. Moreover, she also makes appearances
every now and then on various ESPN shows and as an occasional sideline reporter
on Friday's Night. Nevertheless, the 2007 McKenzie Cup winner and 2007 Best
American Sports Writing honored writer also co-hosts ESPN Audio podcast
HIS&hers and also writes for ESPN.co,'s Page 2 as a columnist.   
Now moving on to her
physical configuration, the award winning journalist is not a tall woman with
the speculated height of 5 feet and 3.5 inches. However, the U.S. national of
black ethnicity is surely someone who has high physical sex appeal, thanks to
her fit athletic-hourglass shape body (probably or maybe banana, but she has
curves), shapely and meaty legs and thighs, big breasts, winsome face, magnetic
eyes and beautiful black hair. Anyway, one can compare her past and present
picture and arrive to the conclusion that she has lost a visible amount of
weight sometime in the past.

Personality wise, she is an
outspoken, expressive and sharp-tongue <a href="/biography/jemele-hill">person</a>.

Talking about her
relationship status, she is allegedly dating <a href="/biography/idris-elba">Idris Elba</a>, a famous English
<a href="/biography/idris-elba">actor</a>, musician and DJ.She has mentioned him in twitter a couple of times.

The happy ending is Jemele is in good terms with her father. She says when you
are young you are unable to find older people perspective. She is happy that
his father has been sober for near to three decades now. She is happy that she
was mature enough to mend things with her father in her early 20's. She likes
to spend time with her father to talk about sports. Her father played hockey
till the age of 18, but later got into addiction as he couldn't break out into
hockey, a sport which shine was declining in the city then. She is happy that sports
have mended their relationship. She used to aks question to her father since
her early days.

Anyway, she is also thankful
to her mother who went through lots of struggle to look after the family. Indeed,
her mother as well had past drug issues, and she was also a <a href="/biography/jemele-hill">victim</a> of sexual
abuse. Despite that, the loving worked very hard to make Jemele happy and
fulfill her needs.

Nevertheless, she is an avid
<a href="/biography/jemele-hill">fan</a> of Michigan Spartans. She strongly supports the team when she is on-screen
as well.

Last but not the least, her
controversies include  "criticizing
Boston Celtics citing <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler">Hitler</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikhail_Gorbachev">Gorbachev</a> during the 2008 NBA playoffs",
"comparing University of Kentucky Wildcats men's basketball coach to
Charles mason in 2009", "accusing <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sammy_Sosa">baseball player</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sammy_Sosa">Sammy Sosa</a> of being
racist  for using skin cream in an effort
to hide is vitiligo ", and many more.  She is often accused for taking controversial
stances to artificially inflate ESPN page hits. Just recently, she created lots
of buzz when she totally humiliated Wolverines fans as Spartan won them neatly.
She also criticized Wolverine fans for their previous un-humble activities
against Michigan.
