On this week's episode of 'Name List 2015', Jessica was named as one of many celebrity CEOs who have succeeded not only in their career as entertainers and artists, but as the founders of businesses as well.


As for Jessica, she first made her name known worldwide as the ice queen and vocalist of Girls' Generation until last year when it was announced that she will no longer be a part of the girl group. Instead, she confirmed that she will pursue her career as a fashion-businesswoman and creative director for 'BLANC & ECLARE'.
