Jesse Eden Metcalfe was born on December 9, 1978 in Waterford, Connecticut. Jesse's parents are Scott Metcalfe and Nancy DeMaio. Scott Metcalfe--Jesse's father-- is mixed with French and Portuguese.

Quotes By Jesse

"Just because you're on a hit show doesn't mean you're rich. I still have roomates...We play in a band."

"I work out five times a week. If my shirt's off all the time on national television with 20 million people watching, I want to look my best!"

"I'm making out with girls on TV all day, so I can't be hanging out with a girl that get jealous too easily."

"I like girly girls. I like a girl who is confident, intelligent, likes to have fun, is open to experiencing new things and is into music. If a girl's not into music, I can't hang with her very long."
