Jared Eng

Jared grew up in a very sheltered environment; he was only allowed to watch 30 minutes of television a week. Once he went to college, he was finally exposed to the likes of Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and the pop culture world he had missed as a kid.

His insatiable appetite for celebrities and pop culture led him to launch the flagship site as a hobby. The website's name was inspired by a character from the show Will and Grace, Jack McFarland, who had a one-man show, Just Jack. Established since 2005, JustJared.com and JustJaredJr.com currently receive over 11 million unique visitors a month.

In 2009, Just Jared was named to Yahoo!'s Top 10 Bloggers Roll (alongside the Huffington Post and TMZ.com) and was previously highlighted by Vanity Fair and InStyle as one of the world's leading entertainment websites.

On February 7, 2011, Just Jared began a partnership with Z100, New York's Top 40 station. Every weekday at 7:20 pm ET, DJ Mo' Bounce checks in with Jared for an update on stories in entertainment.

In May 2011, Just Jared teamed up with Kate Bosworths jewelry collection, JewelMint, to raise money for DoSomething.org.

Jared Eng became a part of the JewelMint Celebrity Guest Curator Series, which gave 50% of the sales of the Brixton earrings to DoSomething.org
