About Shar Jackson
While Jackson appeared on the television show Moesha, starring Brandy Norwood, she upped her "who’s who" factor when she made headlines as Kevin Federline’s ex-girlfriend. At the time that Federline and Britney Spears were dating, Jackson made news as the ex and mother to two of Federline’s children. She was pregnant with Federline’s son when he met Spears and gave birth to the child after Federline and Spears were engaged. Since then, Jackson has continued to work on her acting career – until MTV came calling.

Shar Jackson’s Win
In the end, it was down to Jackson and Wilkinson. Jackson said of her win, "I couldn't believe it. I just knew Kendra had it since she was definitely a favorite. It's hard to beat a Bunny!" The win even sparked the possibility that Jackson may pursue a career as a rap artist. Hey, she can’t do any worse than K-Fed.
