From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jesse Gregory James (born April 19, 1969) is an American and CEO of West Coast Choppers, a manufacturer of custom-made motorcycles, and the host of Motorcycle Mania and Monster Garage on the Discovery Channel. He is also an ordained minister with the Universal Life Church. His great-great-grandfather was a cousin of Jesse James, the legendary American outlaw.
He was born in Lynwood, California (the same school as "Weird Al" Yankovic) and grew up in Long Beach, California, attending La Sierra High School, Riverside Community College and the University of California, Riverside in Riverside, California.
James has two children - a daughter, Chandler and son, Jesse James Jr. - by his first wife, Karla. He also has a daughter, Sunny, by his second wife, Janine Lindemulder, an adult film star/producer, and a former Penthouse model.
On July 16, 2005 James married actress Sandra Bullock; they met when Bullock arranged for her eight-year-old godson, who was a fan, to tour the set of Monster Garage.
James' latest venture is the "Cisco Burger" restaurant, which opened on April 28, 2006, just down the street from West Coast Choppers. The '50s-style burger stand - named after his beloved pit bull - features Kobe beef burgers, low-fat burritos, organic veggies, and biodegradable wrappings.
