"The Gaither High School graduate at the epicenter of allegations involving former NFL quarterback Brett Favre and a series of racy messages and lewd photos is suing her manager, seeking to get back copies of the texts and e-mails.
Jenn Sterger's lawsuit, which was filed Tuesday in Hillsborough County circuit court, also asks a judge to invalidate a book agreement with manager Phillip Reese.
Sterger contends Reese, who runs the PR/PR public relations agency in New York, plans to use the e-mails, texts and other digital communications from Favre in a book of his own.
Reese could not be reached for comment.
The lawsuit also claims Sterger never intended Reese or her then-attorney to have full use of the material.
The agreement calls for the formation of a corporation called Game of Inches LLC to pursue economic opportunities, including a book about the alleged incident with Favre and Sterger's dealings with the National Football League.
Sterger first achieved a level of Internet celebrity in 2005 when, wearing a low-cut blouse and a cowboy hat, she was shown on national television rooting for Florida State University against University of Miami.
Her fame skyrocketed to stratospheric levels last year when the website Deadspin broke a story that Favre had allegedly sent Sterger text messages and lewd photos while he was quarterback for the New York Jets and she was a game-day host for the team in 2008."
