Jerri Lynn Manthey (born September 5, 1970 on a US military base in Stuttgart, Germany) is an actress who is best known for her appearances on reality shows.
Jerri's father, Cyril, was a career member of the United States Army and served several years in Germany. Jerri Manthey was born in Stuttgart, Germany and attended both high school and college in Germany.
Manthey worked as a bartender in Los Angeles while attempting to build an acting career. In 2001, she appeared on the television reality show Survivor: The Australian Outback. She was frequently involved in conflicts with the rest of the cast, earning her a degree of notoriety. When she was the ninth contestant voted off, she turned to all her castmates and replied "Checkmate - you guys got me." During the final jury section, she asked finalists Tina Wesson and Colby Donaldson what actions they regretted most in the game; although the question was phrased in a way that sounded like she wanted a personal apology, Colby said he regretted keeping Keith around to the final 3 and Tina bluntly said she regretted listening to Jerri when she led the accusations of food-smuggling against Kel Gleason, who was the first person voted out from their tribe.
Following her appearance on Survivor, Manthey appeared on The Young and the Restless, and the reality shows Blind Date, The Surreal Life and The Joe Schmo Show. She also posed nude in the September 2001 issue of Playboy.
Manthey returned in the 2004 series Survivor: All-Stars. Although she played a less confrontational and directly manipulative strategy this time, she was again voted off ninth, but did not make the jury this time because there were 18 contestants instead of the 16 who were on the Australian Outback season. At the reunion show, she attempted to speak about the distorted image that viewers have of reality show contestants, but she was booed by the studio audience and left during a commercial break. During the "America's Tribal Council" episode, Jeff Probst was critical of Jerri when mentioning her comments that she was upset that Jeff had not defended her when the audience had let loose with boos.
Manthey's acting debut was in the movie That Championship Season (1999) using the name Jerri Lynn London. She also appeared in the movies The Limited (2000), Destiny (2002) and "Komodo vs. Cobra" (2005). She worked as a sideline reporter on the TV series Extreme Dodgeball during its first season, but did not return for the second or third seasons.
