What is Pretty Girls Love Sports (PGLS) and how did it start?
Pretty Girls Love Sports (PGLS) is the founding brand behind Pretty Girls Media — the original vision that started it all. PGLS was created by Dez Barnes in July 2019 and officially launched and announced in January 2022.
What began as the mother brand of the media company has grown into something even broader. Today, PGLS remains an active part of Pretty Girls Media — not a separate company, but a distinct and essential branch of it — focused on the pillars of community, culture, and the next generation of women in media.
PGLS is the heart behind the brand's mission beyond the newsroom:
Community advocacy
Championing women in sports and media spaces
Apparel
Official PGLS merchandise and brand gear
Internship pipeline
Developing the next generation of women in media
Media coverage
Still an active voice under Pretty Girls Media
One of PGLS's most important roles is building a non-traditional pathway into media for young women who may not follow the conventional journalism or broadcasting route. Through its internship program, PGLS is committed to hands-on development, mentorship, and real-world experience for women who have the passion and the drive — regardless of their background.
Pretty Girls Love Sports and Pretty Girls Media are one and the same family — founded, built, and led by Dez Barnes from day one.
