Meet Janell, a 46-year-old bombshell from Columbus, Ohio who has taken the cigar industry by storm with her bedroom eyes, succulent curves and love affair with cigars. This lady of the leaf is not just a pretty face pinned to the wall of some testosterone-filled cigar shop. She is the devilish dame nestled in the corner of the lounge, sunken in an over-sized leather chair with her lips locked around a premium cigar smoking with the boys.
To couple her newly found passion for cigars with a longstanding adoration for the beach, Janell has found an exciting way to fuse the two together.
“My favorite place to be is on a hot, sunny beach. I like to smoke on the beach,” she said. “I love everything about the water – boating, swimming and a great tiki bar.”
In addition to smoking cigars on a hot, sunny beach Janell enjoys exercising outdoors, attending wine tastings, dancing to live music, and hitting softballs in the batting cages, but most of all she “loves spending time with family and friends.”
Janell’s affair with cigars began in November of 2013. It was as if her prince rode in on his white horse to deliver the inaugural cigar. Vince Snyder, managing editor of The Cigar Lounger magazine found her on Instagram and asked her to do a photo shoot for the magazine’s November, 2013 issue. Her first cigar was at that shoot and she hasn’t looked back since. Janell was the very first ‘Smokin’ Beauty’ of The Cigar Lounger magazine.
Today she can be found mingling with the boys at cigar lounges, smoking on beaches in sexy bikinis or relaxing on a cozy patio with a glass of red wine and a premium cigar.
There is no question that Janell brings plenty of sex appeal to the leaf and she is a pleasant treat at the cigar lounges that she frequents. Her charm, luring body and seductive smile coupled with her fashionable style and love affair with cigars make her the perfect woman in all facets of the imagination.
“I think that men enjoy seeing a beautiful woman smoke a fine cigar over intelligent conversation and laughter. Lord knows that I love to laugh,” Janell said. “I’ve been told many times that my genuine laugh is contagious.”
By popular demand, The Cigar Lounger has invited Janell back to do another photo shoot for the magazine so be sure to look for her in future issues of
“I am very flattered and extremely excited to make that happen! I know that my BOTL and SOTL on Instagram (mystory_jsh) will be thrilled because they have wanted more photos since my last shoot,” said Janell.
