Former MLB star Jimmy Rollins was not hacked, he is the co-founder of a women’s underwear brand
Former MLB shortstop Jimmy Rollins was not hacked after posting unexpectedly about women’s underwear: he co-founded the brand Pretty Kitty Klub. The posts promoted the business and drew attention because they appeared out of character alongside his usual baseball content.
Rollins, 47, said customer messages suggested the brand was helping couples, then shared product images and a holiday-season pitch. The company said he had previously kept a low profile and now focuses on its long-term vision, strategic growth and business development, which is why he is not featured on its website.

Jimmy Rollins is a former professional baseball player who spent most of his Major League Baseball career with the Philadelphia Phillies. Shortstops play in the infield, and Rollins was known for his role on the Phillies team that won the 2008 World Series.
Pretty Kitty Klub is a women’s underwear brand that Rollins helped co-found. His business role has been less visible than his baseball career, and the company says he works on its long-term plans and business development rather than appearing on its website.
The brand’s promotion attracted attention because Rollins’s social media posts usually focus on baseball. The episode also highlights how former athletes may take on business roles after their playing careers.
