- Dawson Casting: Leah Clearwater is around 19 years old in Eclipse, while Jones was 28 years old during filming.
- Ms. Fanservice: She's quite beautiful, and has appeared topless multiple times, along with once also showing full frontal nudity.
- Statuesque Stunner: Leah Clearwater is described in the Twilight books as being a beautiful woman who stands 5'10". Jones herself is slightly shorter but still quite tall at 5'8" and definitely attractive.
