But I can't say no to my favorite twin. |

—"Kiki's Pizza Delivery Service" |
Jennifer "Jenny" Pizza is a resident of Beach City and a minor character in Steven Universe. She made her debut in the episode "Frybo". She is Kiki's twin sister, and one of "The Cool Kids".
Appearance
She wears large gold earrings, a pale cream-colored shirt, a dark brown leather jacket with a beige fur-trimmed collar, lavender shorts (previously long pink pants), and mint-colored flats. While at work, she wears reddish-magenta capri pants and a mauve-colored t-shirt under her apron. She has brown skin and wears her hair in a puffy bob hairstyle. At the beach party, from the episode "Beach Party", she wore a bright red and white striped crop top, a black mini-top underneath, and pale sea-foam green jeans. In "Joking Victim", she wore a white top and dark pink pants.
Personality
Jenny is a chill, fun-loving teenager. Like most teens, she shirks her responsibilities, even at work where she sleeps on the job at the family-owned Fish Stew Pizza. She is not as enthusiastic about the family business (even stating she hates the smell of pizza) as her sister Kiki, and certainly not as much as her father, Kofi. She does, however, enjoy hanging out with her grandmother Nanefua.
She cares most about hanging out with her friends, and isn't afraid of a little danger or doing something possibly illegal. Being one of the few with access to a car, she drives her friends around town. She is also selfless and brave, standing in front of Garnet's fist right before she is about to punch the Escape Pod that Steven is trapped inside. Jenny is also friendly, as she quickly accepts new people into her friendship group and is willing to drive them around.
History
"Frybo"
She's seen running in terror out of Beach Citywalk Fries with Buck, Sour Cream, and Kiki. While the girls escape, Buck and Sour Cream are dragged back into the restaurant by Frybo.
"Lars and the Cool Kids"
Jenny is seen hanging out with Buck, Sour Cream, and Kiki at Fish Stew Pizza. She leaves the shop with the other Cool Kids, asking Kiki to tell their dad that she will be back later. Outside, the Cool Kids are greeted by Steven, and after a brief conversation, invite him and Lars along for a ride. Jenny drives the group around town as they decide on where they should go. She eventually suggests they go to Dead Man's Mouth. At the lake, the Cool Kids and Lars decide to go for a swim despite the police tape and Steven's insistence to return to the boardwalk. The Cool Kids jump in and are quickly engulfed by the Magic Moss. Using Jenny's car, Lars and Steven bring the Cool Kids to Brooding Hill, where the sunlight frees them from the moss by causing it to bloom. From the hill, they appreciate the view of Beach City and praise Lars for driving them there.
"Three Gems and a Baby"
Jenny and Buck Dewey are seen playing in the snow, right before giving Greg their sled.
Relationships
Family
Kiki
Kiki is Jenny's twin sister. They appear to have a good standing, but not a terribly close relationship. Kiki can be seen as the "good daughter" who's upright work ethics clash with Jenny's more kickback "take it easy" attitude. Jenny even goes as far as to identify herself as the "evil twin" (It is also revealed that even though Jenny is the "evil twin", it appears that she is the one helping Kiki with her schoolwork and not the other way around). Their relationship is further explored in "Restaurant Wars", when Jenny said that she is the cutest girl in Beach City, and kissed her cheek, showing they have a good sisterly relationship with minor faults. In "Kiki's Pizza Delivery Service", Jenny is shown to take advantage of her sister's charitable nature, having her cover shifts for her for weeks. This, however, is not based on any sort of malice, as she is perfectly willing to cover for Kiki when she decided to take a day off.
Kofi
Jenny's father allows her to use the car but doesn't like it when she shirks her duties or sleeps late. He is a strict parent who doesn't mind threatening her with the removal of privileges if it can benefit him. This is seen in "Beach Party"; however, he may have been joking in this particular instance.
Nanefua
Jenny's grandmother, Nanefua, does not chastise her for sleeping late or skipping work at Fish Stew Pizza. Among everyone in her family, Jenny seems to get along best with Gunga. Jenny compliments her, laughs at her jokes, shows concern for her safety, and watches the New Year's Eve fireworks show with her. Nanefua has also stood up to Kofi for being harsh, and distracted him from getting Jenny in trouble.
Friends
Buck Dewey and Sour Cream
Jenny's two best friends are assumed to be Buck and Sour Cream, knowing Buck as early as when Steven was a baby. They hang out with her as part of the "cool kids" group in town, and she drives the group around in her family's Fish Stew Pizza car.
Steven
Steven and Jenny are good friends; she finds Steven to be a good kid and likes his straightforward attitude. She lets him ride along with her and her other friends in "Lars and the Cool Kids", "On the Run", and "Joy Ride". Jenny genuinely enjoys hanging out with him, and risks her life by jumping in the path of Garnet's fist right before she is about to destroy the Escape Pod that Steven is trapped inside.
Others
Lars
Jenny tolerates him, considerably more so after Steven credits him with driving them to the hill overlooking Beach City in "Lars and the Cool Kids". Jenny is seen hanging out with Lars, along with Buck and Sour Cream in "Joking Victim". She thanks him for inviting them over. However, in "The New Lars", when she walks out of the shop and sees Lars is there, she shows irritation with a sigh, as if she in fact does not really enjoy his company. This could be due to his grumpy personality, as she very much welcomes his out of character niceness and compliments.
Amethyst
Though not very knowledgeable about the Crystal Gems, her personality and Amethyst's are very much alike as they are both carefree and love having fun. This is shown as they play volleyball on the same team in "Beach Party" and pose alongside each other in "Joy Ride". She also doesn't mind giving Amethyst a ride in her car in "On the Run".
Crystal Gems
In "Rising Tides, Crashing Skies", she called the Crystal Gems crazy because Garnet almost punched her in the face. She seemed upset by that, although she said she wasn't mad at them.
Ronaldo
When she asked about his movie in "Rising Tides, Crashing Skies", Kiki tells her to "let him be." In addition, Ronaldo introduces Jenny as an "Intimidating teenage girl" in his video. This implies she might be known for picking on or messing with him, but this has yet to be gone into.
