Jones garnered significant media attention when she posted a photo of her and American football player Rob Gronkowski on her Twitter account in October 2011. She explained that it was their first and only time meeting and it was merely a photo opportunity saying, “Nothing happened (romantically or sexually), I wish something happened, but nothing happened.”[15][16] Despite this, she entertained and invited media interviews and continued to talk about the incident to promote herself and her projects years afterwards.[17][18]

Jones appeared on the Howard Stern Show in May 2011.[22] She was the cover girl for the July 2011 issue of Hustler magazine.[11] She was the Australian Penthouse Pet of the Month in September 2012.

Jones lives in Scottsdale, Arizona, and she travels to Los Angeles to shoot movies. During her hiatus when she was briefly retired, Jones said that she had "a normal job" doing sales and marketing for a restoration company in Arizona, and has stated she intends to keep that job when she is not making movies.[4][26]
